rule in the writing thereof; and now
that you may see why we have told
you this we want to let you see the
other side of this good man.
We remember in our boyhood,
when pike and concrete bridge in
Bristol township had never been
dreamed Of there was no bridge Of
any kind at the King run which was
near the home of Uncle Seth, and he
would take his horse there to wa
ter. On this occasion, the horse not
being thirsty or at least averse to
drinking, Uncle Seth kicked it and
tried to make it drink, and we feel
sure that when he offered his even
ing devotions he asked forgiveness
for kicking the beast, and all, after
having read and heard that old say
ing dozens of times no doubt, ''you
can lead horse to water, but you
can't make him drink" He was
twice married; his first wife Elvira
Thorla was the mother of his chill
dren. One son was Prof. Martin L.
Andrews who was for many years a
professor in the Marietta college,
and who like his father was very
learned man. At the time of the
dedication of the monument and
acceptance of the Big Bottom park
by the archaeological society, Prof.
Andrews was one of the trustees and
was on the program Of that oc
casion. His death occurred some
years ago. Rev. Frank Andrews.
another son, we believe, still lives in
Indiana. Indiana, we believe, was
the home Of the Andrews family
during the lifetime of his first wife,
her death occurred there and she
was buried there. On occasions
when the Reverend would visit his
father, he would preach in the local
church where his father was rul-
ing elder. He had wonderful voice.
We remember one occasion when he

When we started to write we did
not know where the trail would
lead, and the farther we get along
the more evidence of interesting
things is coming to light.
Wirile we have no one buried here
who filled high places in the state
or nation, we find as the story
grows that some of the offsprings OF
these folks have gone high in their
chosen professions. Some men are
buried here whose lives are living
on. Often as we converse with
friends and neighbors. these folks
and their work are mentioned.
While he lived after some whose
life and work will become part of
our story, we want to tell you about
Seth Andrews now because he liv-
ed part of his life when we were
coming up to manhood. Uncle
Seth as he was known to all, was
a devout religionarian (if there is
such word), as well as scholarly
Christian gentleman. He had his pc
culiarities, but always sincere. A
great reader as well as reasoner,
unlike many he did not read in or
der to be able to argue, but rather
that he might instruct. Allow us to
stop here to tell you that this is
neither an obituary nor a biography
of this man. Neither will what we
shall say of others in the course Of
the story be- We tell you this in

In conclusion we want TO suggest
that our representative, Kenneth G..

can provide, and we should not wait
until Decoration day to replace
them with new ones.
Today We found two graves with
the flags gone. In our next we Will

know anything that will help US,
