Early Days In A College Town And Wabash College In Early Days And Now PDF Download

Excerpt from Early Days in a College Town, and Wabash College in Early Days and Now: With Autobiographical Reminiscences In this labor of love, I feel that I should begin at the beginning. Crawfordsville was young when I arrived there, and so was I. My father, born in Green County, Ohio, April 3, 1801, was married in November 1821 to my mother, Janet Westfall, born in Kentucky. Their parents both sides were born in Virginia. After living on a farm in Ohio, (given them by my father's father, ) for three years they left with their first born, my brother, Jacob, (a pair of girl twins died soon after birth) and with their worldly goods in a covered wagon, for Montgomery County, Indiana, camping at night along the way, where they were kept awake at night by the screams of panthers and howls of the wolves, which they kept away by keeping up fires.
