Tlio history of this wonderful > derful region has yet to bo written , anil when It is written It will bo a chapter1 of amazing interest. Jjiko the fabled river , Oil Creek rolled golden sauds. From a wilderness the valley through which it flowed suddenly became a populous district Towns grew up in a night and were sometimes destroyed in an hour. Many of them were rebuilt a number of times. When the development moved away from them they were taken down , board by board and houbO by house , hauled away on wagons and rebuilt elsewhere. The Duncan house , a hotel largo enough to accommodate several hundred guests , was fust erected in Pitholo , a few miles over the hills from Oil Creek. In less than a year it was torn down nnd rebuilt in Titusvillo. Prom Titusvillo it was taken to Pleasnntvillo , and thence to Oil City , where it did duty as a hotel , boarding house and tenement house for many years. The Chase house , in Pitholo , was built and furnished without regard to cost , and never entertained a guest. The big well collapsed , and the entire town moved elsewhere. The Holdon farm , upon which the first largo wells were found , was bought by a Chicago , company for $1,500,000. Within a few years this farm has boon sold for taxes or less than $100. At the time of the petroleum development in Pitholo the town was the third in size in the state Philadelphia and Pittsburg exceeding1 Now there is not a plank loft to mark where it stood. A largo church was built on a hill some distivnco from the town. The belfry has fallen in , and for twenty- seven years the structure hau bcon abandoned ; but the Sunday school library , consisting of several hundred volumes , still remains in the basement. The books are mildewed , and snoop that run wild on the hills herd in ttio Sunday school room as a place of shel ter. The church was built by the "Swordsmen's club " which , was organ ized by oil producers and business men about town , the object of which was "to have fun. " When the oil excitement swept down Oil crook , Hamilton McClintock owned the Smith farm. llo had traded a yoke of oxen for it. ' McClintock sold the farm to H. I. Boors , and P. P. Cornon for 81,000 , and was plcnbod with his profit. Boors & -Gornon developed the farm and it produced between $4,000.000 and $5,000,000 wp/ttyof oil. Many other farms have histories almost as romurk- ablo. , 1 In these bonanza 'days ' oil was trans ported from the w'dliri entirely by wagons. John Wade drdvo his team all tl.o way from central Ohio to engage in huullng oil. It was a profitable business , and ho soon accumulated a few thousand dollars which ho Invcstc'd i.n a well on Cherry run , whicjji omptioa into Oil creek nt RouBovlllo , thro'o inllos above Oil City. The well was drjllpd and proved to bo a gushor. In n dav. or two after it was struck Prank Allan of Now York , us agontfor the jtcpubllo Oil company , paid Wade $280,000 cash for his well. Wade drew the money from the bank , hitched up his team and drove buck with his easily earned fortune to central Ohio.
