been added to many of them, and
today but a few are living that can
give any definite or accurate infor-
nation. But here and there some
one was either thoughtful enough
or accidentally set down in writing
some account of some of them and
it is by hunting these down and
calling me and telling me they have
some old record that / may make
use of, should | SO desire, and my
getting these old records enables
me to write these articles, giving
the side lights on early events, and
it is these little personal touches
that make history interesting.
From several sources l have
brought together the following side
lights on early days in Malta. These
take us back to the days before the
war between the states.
In those days the hills back Of
Malta were covered with dense
growth of timber, as were nearly
all the hills along the river On
the hills above where the old M. E.
church stood, was very large
beech grove. 1t was here that gath
erings were held on the 4th of July
and on other occasions. Some time
during the SOS 'Dancy" and POLK"
BENJAMIN cut and cleared away the
timber over the ravine at the south
of the grove, and planted it to corn
and potatoes, the first crops ever
produced on the ground.
On the corner where the bank
building now stands, was a frame
building in which man by the
name of Sillery had a shoe shop,
and John Stitt served his appren-
with him and learned the
rade. Across the street lived the

and was fastened there. Lavina
caught and held it while Sarah ran
to the house and secured large
kitchen knife and returned and cut
it's throat. In later years these two
and Horace Ben jamin. Their broth
er, James Van Horn, was consider.
ed the strongest man that ever liv-
ed in the community. When a young
man he had an adventure which had
he not been a most powerful man,
would have cost him his life. A
ferry was operated, at one time,
about where the fair grounds now
are The river had frozen and the
ferryman had cut a channel across
the river to allow the ferry boat to
along with some other fellows,
among whom was Herman Seaman,
started down the river on their
skates, and when they came to the
channel cut for the ferry boat de-
cided it would be too much trouble
to take off their skates and walk
around, so decided to jump the
channel. They may have had in
mind the feat of Isaac Hook when
he jumped the channel cut for the
ferry boat at McConnelsville, which
is said to have been the greatest
jump ever made on skates. At any
rate all were successful in making
the jump except Van Horn, who
slipped as he started his jump and
fell short Of the other side and
plunging into the water went un-
der the ice. The water was shall.
low at this point and when he final
ly got his feet on bottom he found
his shoulders were against the ice
over him. Now, indeed, did his
great strength stand him well in
hand, for with one mighty effort he
Strengthened himself up and actual
ly burst through the ice above him.
1t is reported that the ice was
shattered for yards all around him
and that just before it broke the
ice rose at least foot free from
the water at the channel
William Van Horn was great
hunter and a friend of the Indians,
many of whom still come into the
country now and then, and one of
whom, "Old Douda," after whom
the creek below Malta was named.
lived down there. How many knew
how Douda run got it's name?

SIDE LIGHTS
ON
LOCAL HISTORY
By
Sfanbery Alderman
EARLY DAYS IN MALTA

Malta was laid out in 1916 by
Simeon Pool and John Bell, who
owned the land, and was named by
Pool in memory of a visit he had
made, when he was a sailor, to the
Island of Malta, in the Mediterran-
can Sea.
Later / shall give a more extend
ed account of the founding of NAL
ia as it was established as a town
before McConnelsville. But just at
present | want to record some side
lights on events in and around NAL
ta, though some happened at a
much later date than the founding
of the village.
In connection with both towns
and in fact all over the county, wc
find accounts of events of early
days, some of them traditional,
though in every instance there was
some basis of fact, although during
the years, some trimmings have
