All rights of reproduction, wholly or in part, are reserved to The Stage Guild, Room 917, Railway Exchange, Chicago. ^•S? Foreword In the year seventeen hundred and ninety-five, at the mem­ orable Treaty of Greenville, Chief Little Turtle, wisest of the savages of all times, pleaded with General Wayne to permit the Indians to retain the ownership of the lands on which the City of Fort Wayne now stands. He called it "that glorious gate­ way through which have come all of the good words of our chiefs, from the North to the South, and from the East to the West." Wayne, the pupil of Washington, under whose instructions he had established his fort at the head of the Maumee, and who shared with Washington the conviction that "the Miami village points to an important post for the Union," refused the earnest plea of the Red Man. Today, through this "glorious gateway" of civilization pass with kindliness and gentleness to the regions beyond the knowledge of men, the "good words" of the truest type of modern citizenship—inspiration, truth, service. These are made manifest in the Pageant. They are its very foundation. The play will pass away. Its spirit will remain to the end of time; for the work here done by willing hearts and hands, can never fade from the lives of those who see and those who do. And coming generations of men will feel the power of an unseen influence of the Centennial year of nineteen hundred and six­ teen. •FORT-WAYNE- CENTENNIAL-HYM N 7 ?*1aes»to&o "VVbv-^'5 by Wallace-^{co «f. ^ ^^ .^'j.f-^i,j^ji>ii-~TrT m l.^reatLonJ.,wlietlpou5htl)r^ jhtKe rol-linj yaara —— -^ liaat bfcugW" T/»y ser-vawuzyAsl here,— — E.Here m tte da^k-ric*••^*»* of- old t.unet-une, —— — The/ »av> - a^e came ttoo slay; — 3.

  • Notes Concerning Brookville, Ind., a Century Ago* by AMOSW
    Notes Concerning Brookville, Ind., a Century Ago* By AMOSW. BUTLER,LL.D., Secretary State Board of Charities IT IS my purpose to speak of Brookville as it was a hun- dred years ago. What I am to say is from reminiscences of my grandfather, Amos Butler, and the notes of my father, William W. Butler, of Hadley D. Johnson and others of the older inhabitants. It is my belief that they are substantially correct, though there may be some discrepancies. My grandfather, Amos Butler, a native of Chester county, Pennsylvania. was the first settler of Brookville. He came to its site in 1803 or 1804. The latter year he located and en- tered the land east of Franklin street and north of the sec- tion line running through Dr. Berry’s office. His cabin was built about 100 yards northeast of the Hermitage. The site of it has been washed away. His nearest neighbors were the Templetons north toward Templeton’s creek. He built the first grist mill about where Speer’s flour mill stood and above it a short distance a saw mill. He brought his mill irons and mill stones €rom Cincinnati on pack horses. Several per- sons came with him to assist in the work, among whom was David Stoops with whom he lived. He was the father of Rob- ert Stoops, Sr., who was the grandfather of Harry M. Stoops. David is said to have been the father of twenty-three children. Wild animals were plentiful. My grandfather used to sleep in the mill. His companion was a little dog.

The State had its share of the romantic and chivalrous adventures per­ taining to the dawn of Western history, its share in the encounter with a savage race, in the self-sacrifice of pioneer days, and the heroic patriotism of the war periods. Following this, it had its decades of social and material development, common to the Middle West. It is a goodly land, most advantageously located, and always ready for its part in the national responsibilities. The history of Indiana's past is the story of her fast vanishing frontier life and the gradual changes which come in meeting modem conditions. The differences in social life broaden so rapidly in' this country, that later generations take a keen pleasure in pages that preserve the scenes and experiences of those earlier days. Unless it is often retold, the memory of heroic en­ deavors grows dim.

  • TOMORROW's CANOPY Please Help Us Plant and Nurture 200 Trees At
    TOMORROW’S CANOPY Please help us plant and nurture 200 trees at Crown Hill Cemetery Newsletter of the Crown Hill Heritage Foundation 2015-2016 Dear Friends of Crown Hill, Less than half an inch long, the emerald ash borer wields powers that belie its size. At Crown Hill, this invasive insect pest has decimated 344 trees. To protect historic struc- tures, family mausoleums, grave markers, cemetery and public roads, and, most, importantly, visitors to the ceme- tery, we must remove the trees that have fallen prey to this infestation. The loss of these magnificent, stately old trees diminishes the cemetery’s nat- ural beauty, and will have far-reaching ramifications beyond the great expense of removing them. The Crown Hill Heritage Foundation’s “Tomorrow’s Canopy” initiative will help ensure that future generations continue to reap the aesthetic and quality-of-life benefits that Crown Hill’s urban forest and tree canopy provide. The inaugural phase of “Tomorrow’s Canopy” will plant 200 trees to commemorate Indiana’s Bicentennial. “Tomorrow’s Canopy” holds urgent importance in fulfilling Crown Hill’s mission to preserve and celebrate the architectural, cultural, and natural heritage of the city’s oldest urban green space. In these newsletter pages, you’ll learn more about the problem “Tomorrow’s Canopy” addresses, the solution, and the need. It’s a cause that deserves your support. Crown Hill Cemetery is a unique and special treasure in the heart of Indi- anapolis. Our trees form a key component of the cultural landscape we pro- tect. Through “Tomorrow’s Canopy,” we ask for your help in preserving Crown Hill’s scenic wonders and their contribution to our community’s habitat.
