They were so well re- ceived that 1 determined to rewrite, revise and add new matter and publish the wdiole in book form. This book is the result. It is not intended to be a history of Sumner county—a work to deserve that name would, till many more pag,^cs than are herein containerl—but to present some of the most interesting details about the first settlciiient and the first settlers of the county, not accessible in any other form. My aim has been to give facts and to exclude errors. I have personally inter- viewed many of the descendants of the pioneers, have examined v.ritten and printefl recorrls, and have writ- ten himdreds of k'.Uers, many of which have remained Tiuanswered. It ^'.as the orig'inal ]^urpose to include genealogies of all the pioneer families, but I have been unable to secure the necessary information, tlie living rei)resentatives of the families either did not ])Ossess the facts, or were indit'ferent to their preservation in this form. History begins with tradition, narratives handed down from generation to generation. But tradition is n(.^t always fact, and much of it is absurd, while it may ^erve to amuse and entertain, it should not be taken seriously. It is the duly of the historian to sift tra- dition and retain only authentic facts. I ilesire to here express my sincere thanks to every uidividual who in any way gave me assistance in the way of information for this work, and to hope that all may be satisfied with the manner in which I have pre- ^•^ntcd the iacls given me. J. G. Cisco. HISTORIC SUMXER COUXTV, TEXXESSEE. ^ttLACE one foot of a compass on a line between jbl Gallatin and Bledsoe's Lick, and about six miles east of the first named place, then draw a circle the diameter of which shall be twenty miles, and you will have within that radius a territory which it would be difficult to find a more beautiful, more fertile, or one richer in historical associations. And, too, it would be hard to find a territory of the same extent in which more men known to fame have had their homes. With- in that area was erected the first cabin built by mem- bers of the Ang-lo-Saxon race in ]^Iiddle Tennessee, and was cleared the first field and planted the first corn west of the Allegheny mountains. Within that circle was the home of Grifiith Rutherford, a famous Gen- eral in the Revolutionary war, a member of the Pro- visional Congress, and President of the Legi>lative Council for tlie Government of the Territory South of the Ohio River, and for whom Rutherford comity, Xorth Carolina, and Rutherford county, Tennessee, were named ; Gen.

ZALMON STORKS died at Mansfield, Conn., February 17, 1867, aged 87 years. He was the son of Dan and Euth (Conant) Storrs, and was born in Mansfield, Dec. 18, 1779. He began, in 1802, the study of law, with the late Judge Thomas S. Williams, of Hartford, then a resident of Mans- field ; but the death of his brother threw upon him the care of his father's store, and led him to relinquish his law studies. During his long life he several times represented his native town in the State Legislature, was for a period of six years Judge of Probate for the district of Mansfield, for twenty years Post Master at Mansfield Center, and for thirty-five years Justice of the Peace, holding the latter office until he reached the age of seventy years, the limit fixed by the law of the State. He was the last survivor of his class.

  • Rev. Horace Holley Transylvanias Unitarian President 1818 1827
    REV. HORACE HOLLEY: TRANSYLVANIA'S UNITARIAN PRESIDENT, 1818-1827 BY WILLIAM J. MCGLOTHLIN* It was July 31, 1827, on the Gulf of Mexico• The storm, through which the ship Louisiana had shuddered on its route from New Orleans to New York, had subsided. At the rail, the ship's captain motioned the crew to let the body drop. It fell away, threw up a splash from the surface, and disappeared. Rev. Horace Holley, third president of Transylvania University, Lexington, Kentucky, was dead of yellow fever at the age of forty-six. His wife, almost unconscious from the same disease, knew little of his death and burial until she recovered. Then, as the Louisiana neared the New York harbor, still shocked and desolate, she wrote : O! had he lived to reach his native land, And then expired, I would have blessed the strand• But where my husband lies I may not lie: • . he slumbers in the wave! O! I will love the sea, because it is his grave.1 It was a melodramatic end to a life of triumph and defeat for Dr. Holley and to a period of miraculous rise and beginning decline for Transylvania University. The story is not widely known. In Frederick Rudolph's five- hundred page history The American College and University, pub- lished in 1962, there are only three passing references to Transyl- vania University, and no mention at all of Horace Holley.2 Yet Transylvania University had suddenly emerged from obscurity to become, between 1818 and 1827, a regional university of national reputation and significance• It had been formed by the merger of Transylvania Seminary and Kentucky Academy on January 1, 1799.3 It was the third state university, preceded only by Georgia and North Carolina.
