Kilbourne, in his report, says: 'On my return toFranklinton, I found Case, Bristol and L. Pinney at Scott's, who had beenin about half an hour. When they had refreshed they went up the riverwith me and went immediately to work, while I returned to meet the boat,at Franklinton, leaving them to board at Esq. E. Brown's till Ireturned.' (p. 80, this Vol.) He was not one of the Scioto Comapny, butrepresented his father's interests.
      He married on Feb. 8, 1804, Charlotte Beach. This wedding took placeon the same day with his brother Abner's, the first weddings in thesettlement. He was one of the incorporators of St. John's Society in1807; was Capt. of a company in the First Ohio Reg't, under Col. DuncanMcArthur, in the campaign of 1812.
      He built the house on the west side of Main street, a picture of whichis here shown, and lived there many years. This must have been builtafter 1820, for about that time lot 44, on the corner, was owned by Dr.Upson, and lot 53, next to it, by Ezra Griswold."
