Wildcats and panthers were his early game. Would that I could write out his entire history for the amusement and entertainment of my readers. It is in perfect keeping with the report of all the early settlers, and of my own observation and experience. He has a beautiful home and a happy family, all living in competency and peace. To him, as well as to my venerable friend, George Grier, Esq., is my gratitude due for personal attention and kindness. Nor can I pass unnoticed my other kind friends, Henry F. Wright, A. Abbott, James Walker, H. Tufts, E.N. Hoppin, and others, who took hold of my little enterprise with a hearty good-will, as did my friends all around. "A friend, in need, is a friend indeed."
