HISTORY
OF
Morgan County
From its Formation down to
the present day
Continued from Last Week.

Could one look back with retro
spective eye, more than one hund-
red and thirty years ago, and be
placed in imagination on the peak
of some mountain within the terri
tory embracing what is now Nor
gan county, they would have the
privilege of viewing the trackless
forest, that is trackles as to white
men, yet which would only be mar
red by the herds of buffalo, elk and
red deer, the black bear, panther,
catamount, wolf and other wild an
imals and fowls now extinct so far
as this section is concerned.
Doubtless they would be filled
with wonderment, and exclamations
like that of Mr. Galloway's would
be in order, and could they remain
stationed thus and view the moving
picture of time with its many
changes up until the present day,
witnessing the devastation of the
forest, the determination of the
game, the driving back aud out of
the red man, they would indeed be
impressed in the belief that the
earth, so far as this country is con-
cerned WAS in fact "waxing old
like a garment" Yonder in the
distance might be seen lone
wandering Indian, with his painted
face glistening In the sun, and the
feathercd plume waving above his
pro ruding brow, with his bow and
arrows and quiver slung over the
shoulder, gazing down at the beau
tiful Babahatchie (babbling water)
as 1T flowed out from the mountain
side on down into the Pellissippi

he be permitted to gaze thus at
the beautiful stream that flows
out from the mountain side on
down into the father of waters, no
more would he be permitted to
glide peacefully in his canoe down
the stream, undisturbed by the
river steamer; no more would he be
permitted to roam the forest undis-
turbed by the woodman's axe,
where the still was unbroken by
the shrill whistle of the locomotive;
but in the far distance where his
tepee, pitched in the valley, in
which awaited the squaw and
the pappoose, there would be the
invisible writing on the door of
the tepee the one word "Upharsin;
Thy Kingdom is Divided" for the
hand of civilization and progress
has demanded its toll. However
thus it becomes necessary that in
order to use what Providence has
placed on earth for man that de-
velopment must be made, and the
soil must bring forth its crops. the
forests must be used for the con-
7enience and betterment of man.
Kind in the construction of their
lwelling places, and plants of de-
7elopment, and in making useful
he raw materials, and it is inevi-
able ofttimes in the onward march
If progress the picturesque, the

luence the red man was to either
