Dear Mrs. Shaws,        12/12 '09

We were so glad to hear from

you, and think of you all

often. How I wish we might

have another good visit.

We like our place and work very

much but certainly we are kept

busy. The people are very kind.

This is the church that is to be

remodeled next summer. The parson-

age is lovely, but it does not look near-

ly as large as it really is. It is

really larger than the one at Granger.

Hope you all are well and hope

you will have a most merry Xmas &amp;

happy New Year. Kind regards to all


        Lovingly,  Matilda Polhamus.</text>

[corresponds to back of postcard]

THE CARPENTER HOUSE, Nathan Carpenter, the first set-

tler of Delaware County, arrived in 1801 and chose a site a

few miles south of the present town of Stratford where he

built a log cabin and before fall his permanent home of logs.

This small building, constructed of native stone has survi-

ved since these early days, and has recently been restored.

It is no doubt the oldest structure in the county.

155th U.S. Inf., Co. I,

Dear Old Pal Allen:

                How is every-

thing up in Galena?

Would like to be up there

and go swimming with

you. Sure is hot down

here. Old boy. Tell

Dad I'll write him soon

as I get time. They surely

are working the old-time

sweat out of us. Would

like to have a letter from

you, old scout. Tell me about

your boy scout organization.

Best wishes Elba Mc Caughey.

Dear

Brother,

Did not get

to send you

a birthday card

as I wanted to so

will send you this

instead. This is where Earl

goes to school. Kenneth

is going to start this fall.

We were disappointed when

you did not get home

that day we were

there. Mama said

you were at

the picnic,

with love

Wednesday.

Dear Ones All:

   Well Aunt Gertie

is ready to go to Col. Mrs.

Wright is coming to go with her.

   Aren't you glad it rained.

I certainly am.

   Aunt Gertie said if you come

down &amp; have a dozen eggs

she wishes you would bring

them.

  Come down to-morrow or

Sat. if you can. We would

rather you wouldn't come down

Fri. for we are going to have a

sort of a picnic in the yard &amp;

couldn't have a very good visit

with you. Our picnic will be

for supper. You might bring

my hat down so she can see

it on me &amp; then you can take it

back. Bring the little tweezers too.

Her eye is no better. Come. Doris</text>

Dear Cousin:-

This card

came from the pump-

kin show. It surely

is a large fair. Going

along the street you

can hear pigs grunting,

and roosters crowing and 

it sounds just like the

country. Be sure and come.

The photographs and postcards were collected and organized by John Bricker, Sr. of Galena, and made available to Community Library by his son, John L. Bricker. Most of the postcards date from the early 1900s, and many were used and mailed by members of the Bricker family. A few of the Galena postcards were purchased by John L. Bricker on EBay and added to the scrapbook.</text>

I would write you

a short letter in regard

he said he had

	Fort Duchesne, Utah.

	October 1st, 1907.

Mr David Bricker,

 Galena, Ohio,

Dear Sir:

 Yours of September 26th received. I am glad

to know that you can spare some time to look after the

renting of the Johnson farm. It is nearly out of the question

for me to make satisfactory arrangements with a renter.

 Several men have written to me about it, and I enclose you

letters from Mr Edwards, Huddlestun and George Grey. Mr Grey

as you will notice by his letter, wishes to rent for cash.

 I expect that if you could make satisfactory arrangements,

with a good man for cash it would probably be better the first

year, than to undertake to stock it on shares. I will leave this

business to you now and any arrangements you may make will be

all right with me. I expect it will be necessary during the

sale for someone to look after my interests, and I will leave

that to you. If you can I would also like to have you attend

to the insurance. There seems to be plenty of men after farms

this fall, and I hope we will be able to get hold of a good one.

 Anything you wish to know just write me and I will give you

all the information I can.

	Yours truly,

	 	H.H. VanKirk

and keep the $250 check,

and that will make every-

thing a little better. I

believe, covering the $1500

which I wish you to

get from the bank

I note also in your

letter where you loaned

$1600 or thought you

could. I you made the

loan for that amount

let me know and

I will send you

the additional $100,

Hope you will succeed

in renting the balance

		Fort Levett, Portland, Maine.

		   March 11th 1910.

Mr. D.E. Bricker,

	Galena, Ohio.

Dear Sir:-

 It has been some time since I wrote you but I guess

there has been nothing of importance taking place, have you a place

you can handle One Thousand Dollars at 8%, if you have let me know

and I will turn that amount over to you.

 Have you rented all the farm to Burr, it seems like that a

good farm should be in demand, the way that produce and live stock

are selling now, things are so high I am hardly making my board, I

notice that hogs are selling above ten cents, let me know as soon

as you can about the loan.

 Hope that yourself and family are all well,

		Yours truly,

			H.H. VanKirk.

I happened to be over

on the west coast of this

island on some special

duty and what the

storm did to our

boat was surely enough

There was no harbor in

which to run for safety

so the boat got the full

force of the storm. It went

on the rocks first and

then on the shore, when

the storm was over the

boat was 200 feet on

land from low water

am sending you a photo of it.

That is the 2nd shipwreck I have

been in in two months

 Hope you are all well

		Iloilo, Panay, P.I.

		Jan. 27" 1911.

Mr. D. E. Bricker,

	Galena, O.

Dear Sir,

 I am still at Iloilo, but really did not

expect to be permitted to remain here ^but a

short time when I arrived in September.

As I have told you this is the record

largest city in the Islands and is a

very desirable place to be stationed, and

the policy of the Army is to send the new

arrivals to about the worst place that

can be found for a year or so to init-

iate them. The Climate has changed

entirely since we got here, it is

now very dry and dusty and also very

cool especially at night it has not

rained since Dec 31st and water is very

scarce, the tank to our house has been

dry for some time, and we have to use

distilled water from the Gov'nt plant

even for bathing. It will begin to get hot

about the last of this month and will then be

hot and dry until about June and then

we will have plenty of rain again for

six months. Part of the 9th U.S. Infantry

is stationed here, it is one of the regiments

that I served with in China ten years ago.

The garrison is very peculiarly located. The

soldiers are quartered in an old spanish fort

located on the bay, and the officers live

any where in the city they wish or can

find suitable houses. Our house is just one

mile from the hospital, but Uncle Sam

furnished me a team to go to and from the

hospital. I have been trying to size up the

natives ever since I have been here, and

I have about reached the conclusion that

it will be a great many years before they

will be fit to govern themselves, or may

be never. It certainly would be a great

mistake to turn them loose in their present

condition, the Islands are very prosperous

The check I left with you to fill in and give to Freshwater

when he should have the Quit Claim deed fixed up

You may destroy now, as I have not heard any

thing from him and should be complete his

work he may send me the bill and I will

settle with him.

By the time I can hear from you it will be

time for another statement to be made up.

I am enclosing a blank for you to fill in

so I will know how all the money is invested

and just how much on hand. Am

enclosing you an envelope in which to send

me all the receipts that you have, it would

be nice for you to keep a list. of the receipts

so that if they should possibly get lost, you

could get duplicates of them.

 My Statement for the year will be dated

May 21st so if you take any receipts

after mailing me what you have on

hand now, have them dated after May 21st

when sending the receipts and enclosed blank

(filled in), let me know of any thing else

at present, due to the American "[illegible] and

of course our classes are more or less

benefited. The civil government is

spending a great deal of money in improve-

ments, roads, bridges, &amp;. Let the Americans

withdraw from the Islands the prosperity

would soon cease and the country

would rapidly return to a condition

worse then ever before. For all that

the U.S. has done for them the

natives seem sullen and ungrateful.

 I hope that you have not been annoyed

any more by any one prying into our

business. I certainly should have been pleased

to have had them come to me ^with inquiries while I was

at home, if they were not authorized by

law I surly would have taken pleasure

in handing them something. As near as I

can judge, ^the affairs of the estate are being

admirably handled, and I don't think

anyone in authority has any [illegible] coming,

but of course the curious alway try to "butt in"

you may think that I may need in

making up my report.

 I heard from home some time ago

that you had rented part of the

place again to Burr. I hope that

you will be able to rent the big

pasture before spring, truy to let

some one have it if possible.

I expect you are having some very

cold weather about now, you

better come over here and spend

next winter I will assure you

that you will not get frost bitten.

 I hope you are all well and

everything going on nicely.

	Yours truly

		June 10" '11

Mr. D. E. Bricker.

	Galena, O.

Dear Sir.

 Your letter with receipts

enclosed reached me a

couple of weeks ago. I

have made my return to the

court and informed the

Judge if their should be

anything that he might want

explained to let you know

and that you would gladly

give him any information that

he might want.

Everything was entirely satisfactory

to me and I think you have

done fine to get so much of the

money placed on good loans at

8%. The only thing that the

court might not approve of

is just giving the total

receipts during the year instead

of each item separately. It

is all right with me to keep

it as you have been doing if it

is satisfactory to the court.

I am greatly pleased with the

manner in which you have

handled the business during the

past four years.

While I am in the Philippines

I am going to let you supply

Frances with what money she

needs as it is most impossible to

do so from here. I have just

written to Mother telling her that

I would allow her $400 for the

year June 1" '11 to June 1" 12 so I will

authorize you to let her have that

amount during the year ^at time when

most convenient for both of you.

 I hope you and family are

well. We have been getting

along very nicely over here.

 Shall be glad to hear how everything

is getting along.

	Yours truly

		H.H. Van Kirk.

Dear Sir:-

 During January last we received a letter from Lieutant

Van Kirk to the effect that he intended filing the account due

from him within a couple months therefrom. Thinking that

possibly the account has been filed and knowing that you are

acting as his agent, we are writing to ask that you favor us

with a copy of the account for the completion of our records.

We presume that you have a copy of same handy.

 We also would like to know how the balances as shown by

the account are invested or deposited. You favored us with

a list of the investments during January last also, but in

view of the fact that a new account has been filed, a list of

the investments at this time will be most greatly appreciated.

 Enclosing a stamped envelope for your convenience in

replying, we beg to remain,

		Yours very truly,

Mr. D. E. Bricker

Dear Sir,

 I have made arrangement for

Mother &amp; Frances to live in Columbus

this winter in order that Frances

can attend a suitable school.

 The will probably leave Condit the first

part of Sep't. The expenses will

probably be more than while in Condit

You may let Mother have $500 this

year, that is from June 1st last until

next June 1st. She will probably need

some for tuition the first part of Sept,

I have written her to let you know

about what she will need in order that

you may have it on hand.

 How has your health been since

I saw you. Hope you are still

feeling fine. Don't try to do too

much and I know you will feel

better. We are now settled here and

like it fine, only the weather is too cold. have to keep

a fire going all the time to keep warm.

I leave at 5 a.m.in the morning with the

Regiment for Connecticut to attend the

maneuvers. An army is going to try to capture

New York City and another army is to defend

the city. I am on the defense, there will be

about 20,000 engaged in the "Battle",

We'll get back here about Sept 5th.

 I suppose you have had Bill Sanders

after you for repairs before this. I hope you

will be able to satisfy him by giving him just

a few of the money he wishes.

 We have just unpacked the thing we brought

from the Philippines. You may [illegible] I promised

to give Mrs Bricker a [illegible].Will try and send

it if possible if not will bring it the next trip

home. Hope you are all well,

				Sept 8th 1912.

Mr. D.E. Bricker,

	Galena, O.

Dear Sir,

 The enclosed letter was rec'd

about a month ago, but owing to

being in the field attending in Army

maneuvers in Connecticut, I neglected

to reply until this date. I told Mr.

Wilcox that I thought you would

settle for all work that you had

authorized to be performed, and that if he

would see you that you would certainly

settle all Just claims against me.

From my recollection of the matter you

did not authorize Burr to do this work

for which he submitted this claim.

Now you do just as you thing right about

paying anything to them.

It certainly is a poor practice to

do a piece of work without authority and

then submit a bill for some.

If you think Burr really deserves

anything and that he really did the

farm any benefit, it would be

all right to settle some way with

him, but I dont like to have

them think that they are putting

something over on us.

 Do just as you like and it will suit me.

I got back from this maneuver this 4th The

"Bottle" was quite a gravel affair

There were 20,000 men in the fight and

it was quite volistic except of course the

most important thing - the bullets. We marched

back to the port - about 250 miles. through Conn.

Mass. Vermont &amp; N.Y. which is the nicest part of

the country that I have ever been in.

 Hope you are feeling as well as

usual and also the family. Yours truly

			H.H. VanKirk.

Mr D. E. Bricker

	Galena, O.

Dear Sir:

 Your statement of my acct with receipts

received. In making of my report to the Court

I find that the income from the Estate for the

past two years May 21- '11 to May 21- 13 amounts

to $2889.31 which seems to be too much.

being $1444.60 per year. Be deducting $800 for

the farm would have $644.60 amount recd

for the money loaned which would be over 10%

on the $6000 that you have on hand.

Possibly you might have made a mistake

in adding of the amounts loaned and deposited

in the bank. According to the statement you have

$6754.98 on hand in bank &amp; loaned out. I wish

you would go over the notes &amp; deposit certificates

to see if there has been any error in adding

the amounts. I had an idea that the income

from the estate should amount to somewhere in

the neighborhood of $1200 to $1250 per year.

 Of course I am very glad if the $1444. per year

is correct, but I wish to be sure before I

send in my report.

 The allowance for Frances during this past year

has been very liberal but I believe she will get

more benefit ^from it from now until she becomes of age

than probably after that time.

 About a week ago I received orders to be ready

to go to the Hawaiian Islands at short notice,

on account of the trouble with Japan, but I guess

that has now about blown over, at least

I hope so.

 Will you please let me know about the

above as soon as convenient.

 Hope you are well

			Yours truly

				H.H. VanKirk.

Probate Court makes no objection to the

methods of handling the stock that the

Bonding Co. should owe be satisfied.

If you have an opportunity to look

the mother up and find out exactly what

you have a right to do and let me

know I think it would be a good

idea so when I hear from the Company

I will be in a position to tell them

exactly what I will do.

 Returned yesterday from Santa Cruz

 The climate &amp; weather is the finest here.

	Hope you are all well.

Mr. D. E. Bricker,

	Galena, O.

Dear Sir,

 Was ordered to this place about 10

days ago with 1st U.S. Cavalry from Monterey

on account of rebels in Mexico threatening

to cut the water supply to the Imperial Valley

This place is below sea level and hotter than

Hades.

 I have just drawn a check on the Galena

bank for $50.00 will you please see that

there is enough on deposit subject to check to cover

it. I sent $100 home the last of the month, not

expecting to be ordered away, so I find that

I will have to reimburse myself now.

 When you get the individual loans adjusted

please send me a statement of how all

the money is carried so that I may

write the company in reply to this

lost letter. Hope you are all well

			Yours

				H.H. VanKirk

like we were here for business, and I guess

when we get the word this outfit will

be heard from, there are from 500 to 700

Mexican soldiers on the other side they

have plenty of arms &amp; ammunition and are

very well equipped in most ways they

are the federal troops. The Commander of

them says he does not want to see any

trouble but will have to fight if he is ordered

to do so, or if we attack him. The way things

have been [illegible] for the past year I have been

unable to see how we can keep out of Mexico

A great many of the Americans in Mexico who are

causing the trouble have been run out of the U.S.

and are bad characters when the Mexicans try

to punish one of them they appeal to the newspapers

and the State Department and make a terrible

sensation when in reality many of them should

be in jail and probably would if they were in

the U.S. The Mexicans deserve more sympathy

than they get from us, and if we interferred

less with their affairs there would be less war.

 I landed here the 21st of April with two troops

for sure but in three or four days things

settled down to the way they have been for

a year or more. Our camp is right on the

 Frances expenses have been somewhat

larger this year and I expect this

will continue to increase each year

as she is getting to be a real young

lady. I have not heard from the

Bonding Co for quite a long time

They were very insistent for a while

that I should do certain things I think

there must have been some outsider

trying to pry into the business and didnt

know any other way to do it. For the Co

was entirely satisfied with everything for

4 or 5 years then suddenly got very busy

about the affairs  It looks to me like some

one was trying to butt in. I guess often

the Co found everything was straight

and that Frances was about the only one

[corresponds to item 58 of David Bricker Letters]

this little town Mexicoli just over the line

is a fair example of all the Mexican towns

along the border. It is filled up with

worthless Americans both men and women

who the authorities in Colexico will not

allow to apply their [illegible] or live on this

side of the line they are forced on

the Mexican people whose laws are not

as exacting as ours. The men are of about

the worst type and the women are also.

Of course there are many good American

families in Mexico and I beleive these

have been rarely if ever molested when the

federal government is in control. If we

succeed in destroying the government (which

is Gen Huerta) it is hard to tell what will

happen, probably the serious trouble will then begin.

The rebels seem to be made up generally from

the lower classes in Mexico if they should

gain control of the government I dont think it

would last long as no country I know of is

ruled by the lower class of its citizens

[corresponds to item 59 of David Bricker Letters]

 We are here in the heat and dust

just waiting for something to turn

up or things to get settled so we can get

away. I dont look for the peace business

to amount to very much as Huerta is

a very strong and able man and I dont

look for him to quit his job mainly

because the U.S. Government demanded

that he should. I don't believe a president

of the U.S. would quit if some other government

told him to and I think he would have 

the whole U.S. behind him either right or

wrong. that is about the way the

people of Mexico look at the matter. If

we fight any of them we will have 

to fight them all.

 Hope you are feeling well and

that the family are all well.

			H.H. VanKirk

		Expenditures.

Receipts for all expenditures since

May 21st 1913.

The Bonding Co as you know objected to loans

on individual security, so if I were you and

possible to do so I would cut them down to

the lowest point possible by May 21st.

Send all the papers to me at the above address

by Registered mail. Be sure to have them

securely fixed in a good envelope in

order that they may not get lost. It

might be well for you to make a list of

amounts of all receipts for expenditures so

in case the receipts should get lost we

would at least have the amounts of each.

In giving the amounts loaned please state to whom

loaned, security &amp; rate of interest &amp;, &amp;, &amp;,

I guess that is about all I will need but will

let you know if I think of anything else.

 I am here at San Diego attending the

Panama California Exposition with the

Cavalry Regiment from Monterey.

Expect to be here until some time

about the middle of July. This is a

very hard job attending an Exposition.

I mean hard on a mans pocket-book.

This Exposition lasts the entire year and

is a very nice show.

Have also been to the one in San Francisco, it

is much larger affair than this one and is also

a very fine show.

 In April I took my examination for promotion

and will receive my commission as Captain

some time in June.

 I have been trying to get Mother and Frances

to come out here and spend the summer

but have not heard yet what they have

decided to do. Mother thinks it is most

to big a trip for her.

 I am going to apply for a leave in August if I get

it will get home some time during that month.

Hope you are all well and enjoying good spring weather.

			Cavalry Camp, San Diego, Cal.,

					May. 11, 1915.

Mr. D.E. Bricker

	Galena, Ohio.

Dear Sir:-

	Am enclosing a letter I recd from R.C. Beard, and also my

reply, and the petition. I have no objection to signing the petition

if in your opinion it will not be to my disadvantage regarding a road

from Condit straight to Patricks Corners.

 A road from Condit straight to Patricks Corners would be a great bene-

fit to the farm, but it seems to me that should they succeed in getting

one only from Condit, to Mt. Pleasant Corners that it might be very hard

to get one the rest of the way. As I know nothing about the case I will

leave it for you to look into and do as you like about sending the peti-

tion to Mr. Beard.

				Yours Truly,

					H.H. VanKirk.

P.S.

 As they will probably get the pike regardless

of my signature, it might be best to give Mr.

Beard the petition in order to keep his good will

and place him under obligation to sign for a pike

from Mt Pleasant Corners to Patricks Corners should

the land owners along that road ever wish a pike.

					V.

I have signed so you can send

it direct to the company, and

also send me a copy of it.

So I may keep every thing 

straight. I hope everything is

going on nicely wit the

farm and the investments

Had a letter from Frances the

other day nothing that she had

arrived home safely and

was ready to start to school

about the middle of the month.

Was very sorry that I did not

get to see her, but  reports from

home says she is getting to be quite

a young lady.

 There isnt much prospect of

getting away from the border at

present -- looks good for all winter

but of course we can never tell

what politics will do. I think

most of the militia may be taken

away before election but the

Regular army no doubt will stay

indefinitely.

If there is anything else

you need please let me

know and I will furnish

it.

 I hope you are feeling good

and enjoying the fall

weather, and that Mrs

Bricker &amp; Charlie are

well also.

It is pretty hot here during

the day but cool at night.

Had a bad dust storm this

afternoon I can taste it

yet. The only redeeming

feature about this place is

that there are a great many

places much worse.

	Yours truly

		H.H. VanKirk.

			HISTORY OF GALENA

  Zoar, located between Big and Little Walnut Creeks, was founded

in 1809, by Gilbert Carpenter.

    In 1834, when it became necessary to establish a post office and

there being another Zoar in Ohio, the name was changed to Galena.

To choose a new name for Zoar, a committee of three was appointed.

Nathan Dustin, grandfather of the late Fred Dustin, was one of the

committee. Unable to agree on a name, the three met one day in 

front of the Dustin residence and agreed that each would place a name

in a hat and the first passerby would be blindfolded and asked to draw

from the hat.  The name he drew would be the new name of the village.

Galena was the name drawn.

   A few of the facts of the early history of our village begins with

two brother who started from Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania to the state 

of Ohio.  One of these brothers, the Reverend Gilbert Carpenter, set-

tled in Galena in 1809, and thus became the first Methodist minister

in Delaware County.  The other, the Honorable Benjamin Carpenter,

built about one mile north of Sunbury.  The former had been a promi-

nent minister in his native state and the latter had been a Congress-

man.  ( On May 3, 1962, the Delaware City Chapters, Daughters of

the American Revolution, dedicated a bronze marker at the grave of

Lt. Benjamin Carpenter in the Galena Cemetery for his prominence in

the American Revolutionary War.)

    On April 14, 1813, Gilbert Carpenter conveyed to William Carpen-

ter this tract of land in Sunbury Township, which was later divided

between Trenton and Berkshire Townships.  William Carpenter thus

layed out the village of Zoar.  His layout showed Walnut street, Mill

Race, Middle Street, West Street, the Square, State Road, Front

Street, a meeting house and burial ground.

   On April 3, 1816, upon agreement of said plat drawn up by William

Carpenter, to all for whom it may concern, Zoar became a reality.

   On January 4, 1924, shortly after the village became incorporated,

the first form of self-government was organized.

    The minutes of Council from that first meeting are as follows:

    Council met in called session at the call of the Mayor-elect for

    organization.  Councilmen-elect present, C.C. Bricker, I.C.

    Budd, James Van Fleet, Ed Linnaberry and R.E. Fissel.

    The oath of office was administered by Mayor W.F. Bennett to

    the following councilmen: C.C. Bricker, I.C. Budd, James Van

    Fleet, Ed Linnaberry and R.E. Fissel.

    Councilman C.L. Smythe had deposited oath of office with Mayor

    Bennett, which was executed on December 19, 1923, before O.W.

    Whitney, a Notary Public.

    Moved by James Van Fleet, seconded by I.C. Budd that R.E.

    Fissel act as President of Council.  Carried by affirmative vote.

    Moved by Ed Linnaberry, seconded by C.C. Bricker that meeting

   adjourn to meet Monday evening January 7, 1924.  Motion carried.

			Attest:  O.J. Hancock, clerk

			Approved W.F. Bennett, mayor

   Since W.F. Bennett, who served as the first mayor, several other

men have succeeded.  The following is a partial list:  I.C. Budd,

John Cockrell, Nathan Dustin, Arthur Strider, Paul Evarts, Harold

Roof, Hugh Strider and presently Gordon Walker.

    In 1945, the present town house was constructed. Before this time 

the village council held their meetings in the school.  The town house

is used for other organization meetings as well as a voting precinct.

A few years later the fire house was added.  Before, the fire house

was in the basement of the town house.

    Another improvement by the village took place with the installation

of a water system in the late 1950's.

    On April 16, 1966, the village of Galena will observe its 150th

birthday.  Let us go back first to September 10, 1907, when Galena

celebrated the 100th anniversary of its founding.  The celebration

took place upon the farm settled upon and formerly owned by Benja-

min Carpenter.  There were about 125 descendents of the founders in

attendance.



			GALENA SCHOOL

    The earliest public building on record in Zoar was an old log school

house near the site of the present school building.  It was used for

both school and church purposes, and built years before the platting

of the town on April 3, 1816.

   In preparing the ground for erection of the present school house,

workmen discovered it had been formerly a burial ground and from

their findings decided it was graves of Indians.

   In 1867, part of the present school building was erected, which

was later in the 1920's remodelled and once again in the early 1950's

into the present building.  History records that it is the oldest school

building in the county in use today.  It has always been considered

one of the best in the county and while it seemed a little slow in be-

coming a graded school, it was only ten years later than the Delaware

City Schools.

   In the early 1900's the Galena School flourished as a preparatory

school for teachers.  At that time, there was a state law whereby the

township must pay tuition for students passing what was known as

the Boxwell Test to go to a high school, if that township had no high

school.  Galena had a better preparatory course than many others in

the county, so many students came here, secured, lodging and board

in different homes and remained for their course.  Mr. Ira Gregory,

member of the county board, was superintendent here at that time.

A few other early superintendents where I.C. Guinther, D.C. Meek,

N.M. Miller, E .W. Van Fleet, Harold Stiles and Grant M. Plumb.

From 1886 to 1951, when the school district was consolidated into

the Big Walnut School District, 540 students had graduated from the 

Galena High School.

   The most famous person to attend the Galena School, although not

a graduate, was the Honorable Frank B. Willis.  Mr. Willis was one

term Governor of Ohio and one term United State Senator, and was

being prominently mentioned as a candidate for Vice President of the

United States before his untimely death while speaking at Gray Cha-

pel in Delaware, Ohio.  The village is dedicating a memorial plaque

in his honor on the school grounds during the Sesquicentennial Cele-

bration during the first week in July.

			OLD HOMES AND BUSINESSES

	Before 1906, there was no square in the center of town.  You could

drive any place and as it was horse and buggy days a water trough

was near the pump so people could stop and water their horses.  There

was also hitching posts to tie the horses.  But in 1906 the square was

graded and made into a square instead of driving through which was

caused by the construction of the old 3 C Highway.  With the reloca-

tion of roads in later years, the square has once again gone back to

its square shape.

	Around this square and throughout the village, many businesses

and homes have flourished and many have disappeared.  The follow-

in is a short review of these different homes and businesses.

	One of the oldest houses, if not the oldest, was the one formerly

owned by Mrs. Lee on the west side of the square which burned when

the store burned.  It was built with three-inch planks inside, which

is thought was intended for protection from the Indians.

	The Dustin home, built in 1826, now owned by Dr. L.M. Ihle,

was the stagecoach station with the bar and all things necessary for

such a station.  The horses were kept in the barn at the rear of the

house.  Also, Mr. Nathan Dustin built scales and a stockyard.  Hogs

were brought there, weighed, and they, with their owner, went on

foot to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the market.  In those days there

was a larger frame hog than today and the hog put on fat on its way.

(On Sunday, May 15, 1966, the Delaware County Historical Society

dedicated a historical marker on the Dustin home.  The Stagecoach

Inn, as it was known, was built by Nathan Dustin (1791 - 1872) of

brick that was made at the rear of the building.

	Mrs. Walter Pabst gave a historical sketch of the Dustin home.

Also present was Mr. Charles A. Jones, personal secretary to Sen-

ator Frank B. Willis.  The wife of Mr. Willis was Allie Dustin, a

descendant of Nathan Dustin.  Mr. Jones gave a brief characteriza-

tion of Mr. Willis and his visits to Galena. )

	In the early days on the property last owned by Mr. and Mrs. Lo-

gan Barrick on S. Columbus Street, was a grist mill, run by Tom

Van Fleet, father of Jim and Carpe Van Fleet.  Across the road from

this was a sawmill operated by Nathan Dustin, Sr.  Near the saw-

mill was a tannery.  Both of the mills were run by water.  Two races

were made, one for each mill, taking water from Big Walnut to

Little Walnut.  One race was visible until 1956, before the City of

Columbus acquired the land for construction of the dam.  The tannery

was a two-story building.  On the second floor was the office of Mr.

Ed Sherman, who had a patent on building the covered bridges.  The

patent was on the bracing of these bridges, and he built the ones in

the community.  There were three of these bridges here, one spanned

Little Walnut on the West Galena Road and was replaced by an iron 

bridge in  1931.  One was south of Galena on Yankee Street crossing

Big Walnut and was replaced by an iron bridge in 1933.  The third

was farther south of town and remained in use until in the 1950's when

it collapsed with a truck.  Now, in 1966, these iron bridges have been

removed and the roads abandoned because of the Hoover Dam.

	On the present site of the Galena Bank was the Maynard Hotel,

which burned more than eighty-five years ago.

	By the side of the Maynard Hotel on the south side of the square

was a drug store, managed by Squire Wells.

	The first funeral director in Galena was a Mr. Smothers, then la-

ter Mr. Morrison.  At present George DeVore operates a funeral home

on N. Walnut Street in the dwelling formerly owned by Addie Cooke.

	The shop on the west side, which burned, was orginally a tailor

shop.  The building was later enlarged and made into a store.  Some

of the past proprietors of that store were:  Hyde &amp; Young, Mossman,

Clint Van Fleet, Merill, C. C. Bricker, Coons, Hancock, Beaver and 

William Trainer at the time it was destroyed by fire.

	There was a small building located between the store and the Dus-

tin residence used for a voting booth.

	In later years, on the east side of town was another tailor shop.

it belonged to Mr. Van Fleet.

	Also on the east side was a wagon shop run by Henry Cook, and

a paint shop run by Al Seymour.  Joe Adams was the painter, paint-

ing wagons, etc.  These buildings were the ones formerly owned by

the late Frank McMahon, his blacksmith shop, etc., but have been

removed by the City of Columbus.  On the second story of one of

these buildings was a Woodman of World  (W.O.W.) Lodge.

	A factory, known as Brown and Hughes employing five men, was

located south of the square.  They manufactured polks.  It was later

known as Hugh and Smythe, and they made polks, rakes and hand

corn planters.  They employed several more men and sent a salesman

out on the road to sell their goods.  Most of them sold in the South.

It discontinued in the early 1920's.

                         [photo of Galena Creamery]

	On the site where was located the first sawmill on S. Columbus

Street was a creamery.  When I moved to Galena in 1906, it was op-

erated by J. J. Weber.  We, like many other residents, purchased

milk at the creamery for seven quarts for a quarter.  People went with

their little quart buckets for the milk.  After the creamery discontin-

ued, a Sunshine Feed Store operated there for a few years.  Then it

was replaced by a house, but now the City of Columbus has taken the

building.

	Later, Mr. George Mulzer started a feed store and beer chip fac-

tory in the north end of town where now Mr. E. L. Hoke lives.  He

built the house and buildings.  The chips were made of beech and

were used to filter beer.  They soon discontinued making them and

used all their time on the feed mill, making good corn meal, buck-

wheat flour, etc.  After Mr. Mulzer's death it discontinued after 

being operated for a while by a son, Walter.  His other son, Leslie

is now a retired Brig. General in the Air Force.

	Several other hotels besides Maynard have operated here.  One was

on the east side of the square owned by Jim Budd and one on the west

side owned by Sam Lee.  Also on the south side of the square was

Gelvin's Hotel, which is now the Clock Grill.  Later restaurants, pool

rooms and barber shops have been there.  At the present time is Aller-

ton's Grocery, Jim Vance's Tire and Battery Service and White's Grill.

	Dr Utley had a drug store on the south side of the square and they

operated a fashionable hotel in the house on the bank of Big Walnut.

In the basement they also had a good snack bar, serving school lun-

ches and whatever the public demanded.

	The basement house on N. Walnut Street, south of the railroad 

crossing was built by Mr. Newman, who operated a restaurant in the

basement.  At that time the depot was across the street and many

trains were in operation.  Billy Vance was the agent at the depot.  The

Newman restaurant was a very convenient place for the trainmen to go

for a snack and they specialized in good ice cream.  Mr Newman

was also a mail messenger, conveying the mail to and from the post

office and the depot.

	For years, Will Campbell operated a barber shop on the south side

of the square.  He was also postmaster in the same building for years.

Carpe Van Fleet succeeded Mr. Campbell as postmaster.  Then the

office was moved to the north side with Mr. Fissel as postmaster, the

the office burning while there.  The post office was temporarily loca-

ted on the west side of the square following the fire.  Finally it was

located at the present site in the Odd Fellows building with George

Hogg as postmaster.

	Charlie Platt operated a meat market on the south side of the square

and on the north side over a span of years have been doctors' offices,

barber shops, beauty shops, pool room, millinery store and restaurants.  

	At one time the Bell Telephone office was in the rear of the Odd Fel-

lows building and the Citizens Telephone office was operated by Mrs.

Frank Budd in her home across from the school.

	The north side grocery had as proprietors: John Adams, Mr. Ing-

ham, Hoyt Williams, Will Bennett, I. C. Budd, John Hancock , Bob

Glenndening, Gordon Walker and present it is a new brick struc-

ture under the management of Roy Jahn.

	The hardware store on the east side has been removed. Some of 

the past proprietors of the old store were:  Mr. Moss, Bill Mann, Mr.

McCamment, H.L. Reed, W.B. Vance, Grant Bennett, Mr. Jordan

and Virgil Kincaid.

	North of the railroad Hank Campbell operated a shoe cobblers

shop at his home for years.  Just east of that, Mr. E. C. Bennett and

Son had a warehouse but it has now discontinued.

	Other places of business such as livery stables owned by Jim Budd

and John Rogers and a sawmill by Grant Bennett have been out of op-

eration for years.

	Before the construction of the present Galena Shale Tile and Brick

Company, there was a smaller one in the same location.  It was known

as the Tile Mill, managed by J. T. Budd, then later by Ed Bennett

and Jim Rose.  After being idle for a while, it was organized by Mr.

B. L. Shultz as the Galena Shale Tile and Brick Company, which  is

in operation today.

	When any building has stood for more than 100 years and has been

in constant use, it has many interesting stories and memories for

those who know it.  No building could have more memories, both joy--

ful and sad, than a church, so we are very grateful for "Our Church."

	In 1807, the first service on record held in this neighborhood was 

in a cabin on a farm two miles south of Galena.  It was held by a lo-

cal preacher by the name of John Williams.

	Gilbert Carpenter built a mill in Galena in 1809, and services were

held in this mill in summer and the homes during the winter up to 1814

when the Carpenter home was built.  This house, built one year after

our church was organized, was used as a place for public worship for

years.  While our church here was organized in 1813, with 14 mem-

bers, it was fifteen years later before we had a church building.

	The date of the first recorded official meeting is September 20,

1828.  These are the words, "At a meeting of the subscribers held in

Zoar, Ezekial Brown, Chairman; Samuel Leonard, Clerk; the follow-

ing resolutions were adopted:

	" 1st.  That said house shall be built 40 ft. wide and 60 ft. long.

	"2nd.  That the committee named in the subscription papers shall

continue to do business.

	"3rd.  That Benj. Carpenter 2nd shall be acting agent for said

house and provide a book and make all necessary entries.

	"4th.  That the subscribers names and their subscriptions shall

be entered in said book.

	"5th.  That the agent shall purchase the two Vansicle lots to

build said house upon."

	There were subscribers in all, the largest subscription being

$102.50, the smallest $2.00, the total amounting to $1092.

	The first trustees of the church property were: Benj. Carpenter,

Enoch Domigan, Barack Weeks, John S. Brown, Samuel Leonard,

Chas. Carpenter, while Benj. Carpenter, Jr. was Sec. and Treas. of

board and superintendent of church building.  Later, Samuel Carver,

Ira Arnold, Nathan Dustin and Harlowe Allen were elected taking the 

place of deceased or otherwise removed members.

	The Galena charge as it was known consisted of eleven points,

namely: Galena, Trenton, Kingston, Bennington, Sunbury, Berlin Sta-

tion, Eden, Ashley, Winsor Corners, Berlin and Berkshire; Galena be-

ing the largest.  Samuel Lynch and A. J. Lyons were the pastors.  

From 1865 to 1868, Ease Delaware was a part of Galena charge.  In

1869, the Conference arranged the charge with Galena, Sunbury, Berk-

shire and Vans Valley.  It remained that way until 1915 or 1916.

	There is no complete list of pastors until 1844.  We know that in

1829, L. Swormstead was pastor and in 1839, William S. Morrow was

the preacher.  Then beginning in 1844, follows the list of pastors:

	L. Swormstead, W. S. Morrow, John Scholes, Daniel Lambert, S. H.

Alderman, H. M. Shafer, John Mitchell, John Blampied, Sam L. Linch,

A. J. Lyons, ________ Adams, S. Frant, B. A. Webster, Amos Wilson, 

W. G. Watters, J. Wheeler, S. D. Seymour, A. B. Brandebury, P. Plum-

mer, O. Webster, J. S. Cutler, A. S. Moffit, A. Lane, F. M. Searles,

H. Safford, Wm. Hudson, F. S. Hoyt, John Whitworth, H. L. Parish,

W.B. Farrar, S. R. Squier, A. K. Ownes, D. R. Moore, S. F. Dunbar,

Uri Richards, J. Matlock, O. Lawrence, B. F. Bell, E. L. Smith. M.B.

Mead, M. Weaver, E. S. Tompkins, B. F. Whitehurst, C. M. McCon-

nell, W. R. Polhamus, J. M. Ackman.

	During either 1915 or 1916, after the division of the charge, it 

left the Galena and Vans Valley churches together and the Sunbury and the

Berkshire churches.  Until this division the only parsonage had always

been in Galena.  

	Many years later in 1960, the Galena and Vans Valley churches

separated, and so today each have their own minister.  The follow-

ing is a list of the Galena and Vans Valley, and Galena ministers.

      The bell, which has since been removed, was purchased in 1853

with Nathan Dustin and Ezekial Brown raising the money.

    The first remodelling of the church took place when Rev. Polhamus

entered his duties of pastorate of Galena Church, September 25, 1909.

He found the church building in bad condition.  The building needed

painting, new glass, new paper, the roof leaked, the belfry was bad- 

ly decayed, the timbers supporting the floor were spreading.

    In January, 1910, a meeting was called for the purpose of remodel-

ling the church and the building of a parsonage at Galena. A build-

ing committee, W. C. Roberts, F. C. Cornell, Joseph Arnold, E. B.

Cole and the pastor was appointed to raise the money.   By June there

was pledged  $3800.00. On September 9, four days before confer-

ence, the church was rededicated with expenses pledged to $5500.

      During the pastorate of Rev. Ackman, 1914-1916, they added to 

the church at least 500 members, but lost by death and certificates 

and numerous moving away about 100.

      During the year 1916, Galena and Sunbury adopted the envelope

system of raising funds for all expenses of the church.  An average

of .10 per week per member was decided upon.  Some may pay .01

or some .75 a week, but the system has worked well and solved the

financial problems.

   With the first remodelling, the interior setting of the Church was

changed.  The latter remodelling about 1950, presents an addition to

the front and extra basement.  It was started under the pastorate of

Rev. Alva Taylor.

     The pulpit furniture was presented by Howard Whitehead in mem-

ory of his wife, Emma Slack Whitehead, on August 17, 1947, during

the pastorate of Rev. S. Lee Whitman, Sr.

   The beautiful colored windows have been donated by different mem-

bers in memory of a loved one.

    The new Baldwin Orgasonic was purchased in 1955.


			GALENA CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE

   The Galena Church of The Nazarene was organized October 29, 1944

with 18 charter members under the leadership of the Reverends Paul

and Eva Hayman, at that time pastors of the Westerville Church of The

Nazarene.  Rev. Eva Hayman was appointed pastor of the church,

which she served until January 21, 1945.  Rev. Donald W. Woodruff

was then appointed pastor by the District Superintendent, Dr. Harvey

S. Galloway.

   The church was first located at 71 S. Walnut St. and in November

of 1950 moved to 217 Harrison St.  During this time plans were being

formulated to build the present brick church building at 127 Holmes

St.  These plans were completed in October of 1950, and the con-

struction was completed early the next year, with the opening service

being held Sunday July 1, 1951, with Dr. Galloway as speaker.

The succeeding pastors were:

    Donald W. Woodruff	1945 - 1947	D. C. Kelley	1956-1959

	A. J. Laird	1947 - 1949	B. R. Kean	1959 - 1961

	M. F. Reeves	1949 - 1950	L. M. Tucker    July 1961-Dec. 1961 
	
        G. F. Poage	1950 - 1951                     	
                               
	C. H. Wiandt	1951 - 1953	D. C. Kelley    1961 -1962

	B. A. Johnson	1953 - 1956	B. R. Kean      1962 -present

       During the early part of Rev. Kean's second call as pastor, the

church planned and built a new educational unit which was completed

in the fall of 1963.

     The church expresses its appreciation to all those who across the

years have helped it to become a part of this fine community, and

may it ever stand as a symbol of righteousness and peace.


			THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH

      The Episcopal Church stood on what is now the playground at the 

school house.  It was an attractive little church built with a base-

ment where social times were enjoyed.  The church had a lovely bap-

tismal font and Mr. and Mrs. Knight's daughter was the first person

to be baptized in the new church.

			GALENA CEMETERY

   The Galena cemetery dates back earlier than 1813, for we have

record of Revolutionary soldiers buried in 1813.  These grounds ori-

ginally were recruiting grounds for soldiers and the supposition is

that the first burial might have been an early soldier, causing the be-

ginning of the present cemetery.

    According to present records, which are correct, more Revolution-

ary soldiers are buried here than in any other cemetery in Central

Ohio.  There are records of ten Revolutionary and ten of the War of

	In the early days the cemetery was a briar patch, no caretaker at

all.  One night a car load of sheep was shipped in here to John Dus-

tin.  As he was trying to drive them home, they became scattered and

he had to wait until morning to find them. They had taken refuge in 

the cemetery and cleaned up the briar bushes.  The citizens of the vil-

age decided it looked so much better that they kept it cleaned after

that, and, of course, now we have a paid caretaker of the cemetery.</text>

			GALENA BANK

	In 1901, a bank was started in the Odd Fellows building and in

1906, the present bank was built.  The original board of directors 

consisted of:

	C. W. Hughes	G. J. Roberts	C. Horton

	S.F. Bennett	A. O. Griffiths	J. H. Dustin

	J. J. Adams	W. F. Miller	G. W. Bright

	J. R. Smythe	E. Hall		

	The first president from December 23, 1901 to August 1902, was

George Hughes.  From 1902 to 1908, the president was George Rob-

erts; from 1908 to 1928, William Miller; from 1928 to 1942, Dr Noah

Gorsuch; and from 1942 to 1965, Fred Dustin.  Late in 1965, the Ga-

lena Bank merged with the Delaware County Bank of Delaware, Ohio.

	The Galena Bank, like other banks, sometime during their lifetime,

experiences the misfortune of being held up or broken into, and the

Galena Bank is no exception.

	On Tuesday, October 4, 1932, eight yeggs blew open the safe and

looted the bank of about $3500.00.  All but $300.00 of the loot was

recovered by two men on a road west of town  five and one-half hours

after the safe had been opened.  The following is the story of the bank

robbery as it appeared in the Wednesday, October 5, 1932, Columbus  

Dispatch.

	While bandits blew the safe of the Galena Bank early Tuesday,

five men were being detained in a barber shop across the street by

guards who prevented them from giving an alarm.  The men were

Ralph Watts, Charles Franklin, Pearl Allerton, Carl Cunningham and

Gilbert Jones.

	Hidden behind barber chairs, lying on the floor and seeking cover

around a stove, a group of seven men spent four hours in the Galena

barber shop from 12:30 to 4:30 A.M. Tuesday, whispering to each

other to "keep still" as bandits blew the safe of the Bank of Galena

Company across the street.

	The men in the little barber shop were the only ones who knew of

the bandits in the bank building, but they could not get out for guards 

were posted in front and rear.

	B.B. Miller, cashier of the bank, said Tuesday that not more than

$100.00 was taken by the robbers, who blew the outer door of the safe

and used an acetylene porch to cut a hole into the safe.

	This hole was so small that only two drawers containing pennies

and nickels could be reached and the bulk of the money was not ob-

tained.

	Telephone wires in the village were cut and guards were posted by

the gang to give warnings.

	Entrance to the bank was gained through a side window and as soon

as the men entered all windows were covered with tar paper to conceal

the flames of the torch, but these were visible to the men in the shop.</text>

	The only car in which the bandits were seen was a 1927 pale blue

Buick sedan with two spare tires in rear and bearing license plates

D-8669.

	After the safe had been blown the men got into the car, according

to the men in the barber shop and drove toward Columbus on the 3C

Highway.

	C. F. Myers, marshall of Galena, knew nothing of the robbery un-

til called early Tuesday morning, he said.

	Visions of putting up a brave front and putting the bandits to rout

went glimmering when the men in the barber shop saw the guards, who

said nothing but watched the men in the shop.

	A revolver in the barber shop was the only weapon to be used in a 

fight and after a whispered conference the revolver was placed on the 

floor out of reach.  The conference was not one of war but of peace

and discretion was decided to be the better part of valor.

	The bandits won a wordless victory for not a thing was said by any

of them and not a shot was fired.

	All was quiet except for the creak of the town pump as the robbers

pumped water to cool the safe and walked to and fro as they guarded

both front and rear of the barber shop.

	When questioned about how they spent the four hours, the men said

they were sure they did not talk.  "Every time I head the stones in

front of the door make a noise I thought sure that fellow was coming

in here, and if he had I know I would have fallen dead right on the

floor," Charles Franklin said.

	Pearl Allerton and Gilbert Jones, the barber, said that it was about

midnight when they heard there were several suspicious looking men 

in town and that it was decided to sit up in the little barber shop and

watch them.

	The light was turned out and the radio turned off and all was quiet

until one man looked out the window and saw the two guards on watch

and a few minutes later the other man was discovered in the rear of 

the building.

	Ralph Watts,Charles Franklin, Pearl Allerton, Carl Cunningham,

Gilbert Jones, T. P. Hamer and Kenneth Platt were the men who spent

the wee small hours of morning in the barber shop.	
                           
			-----------------------------

	No more faithful nor loyal people to their country, conscience of

church, can be found than here.  Nor shall we wonder when we re-

member that of the thirty-six Revolutionary soldiers buried  within

the county, ten of them are buried in the Galena cemetery, where

also, our own Rev. Gilbert Carpenter was laid to rest.

	As the next generation will build on the foundations we lay for

them, may our foundations be equalled to the foundations of our

forefathers.</text>
