lady, being the only persons who are survivors of 40 years ago. Elihu TIPTON, Isaac BROWN, and
Robert GATCHELL were among the first business men that settled in our
village of Jerusalem, and Mr. Robert L. MORRIS is its most venerable
school teacher. Mr. WILEY’s
impression is that the progress made by the citizens of our county, as a rule,
has been proportional with our sister counties, comparing our natural
advantages and resources, and that with her present outlook and future
prospects for internal improvements, she bids fair to rival other and more
highly favored counties of the State.
