erected three log-cabins sixteen feet square and about seven feet high on their land in Greene, into which they moved, and then commenced their clearings and putting in a crop in the girdling. Other settlers came in gradually, among them John Harrington, about the 1st of March, 1818, and on the 14th of that month his only daughter, Deborah, was born, this being the first birth in the township. At this time there was a flood, owing to the melting of the snow which fell on the second day of February nearly three feet deep. This season passed off quietly. Nothing in particular tended to break the monotony of the ax-men and of the ringing of cow-bells until the 18th of October, when it was announced that the wife of John Wakefield had a son, whom they subsequently named Edwin. This was the second birth in the township. In June, 1820, came Timothy Higgins and family, consisting of wife and five children. John M. Justin came in September of that year, and in the following November was married to Ruth Higgins, being the first couple married in the township. During the first year of the settlement the nearest store was in Kinsman, kept by John Andrews. Salt then sold at $14.00 to $15.00 per barrel. Grain could not be sold for cash. Wheat would only bring three York shillings a bushel at any of the stores in dry goods. Not an ounce of tea could be got for any thing but cash. The first grist-mill was built on Musquito Creek, by David Rice and Noah Bowen, with the aid of the inhabitants. It was commenced in 1821 and got to running in 1822. The same year Samuel Hayford built a saw-mill. In 1824 David Rice and Noah Bowen put up a saw-mill near their grist-mill. Other small mills were subsequently erected in different parts of the township. These mills were all of a temporary character, but supplied the inhabitants until others of a more durable and better quality were built. There are now in the township one grist-mill and three saw-mills running by steam. In 1826 the first mail-route was established through Greene. The office was named Greensburg. Major Churchill was appointed postmaster, and retained the office eighteen years. There were then thirty-seven families in the township. In the early periods of the settlement the inhabitants assembled on the Sabbath at the different houses, and sermons were read. In September, 1818, Rev. M'Clain, a seceder minister, from Pennsylvania, by request, came and spoke a sermon in John Harrington's house. Soon after Elias Morse, from Williamsfield, a Methodist minister, made some standing appointments. In August, 1819, Rev. E. T. Woodruff, from the Connecticut
