DIARY OF REV. DAVID MCCLURE

David McClure was a clergyman (1748-1820) who graduated from Yale University in 1769, spent some time teaching, and then was ordained at DartmouthCollege in 1772. He spent sixteen months as a missionary to the Delaware Indians near Pittsburgh, PA during which, in the winter of 1772-1773, he traveled west to the Delaware settlements on the Muskingum River in the Ohio territory, and returned. On page 108 of the published Diary, his January 24, 1773 entry reads:-

“January 24. Preached at Stewart’s Crossing. After meeting rode home with Captain Crawford[4], . . . The Captain was very hospitable. He is from Virginia. (N.B. He was killed by the Indians in the Revolutionary War.) Sacra, non muitum in domo ejus, observantur. Uzorem virtuosam habet, sad, vae, ille hoc tempore, in fomications vivet; & mulierem scandeiosam, ut aiunt, non longe a domo ejus, custodiet.”

The line in parentheses is obviously a later addition to the entry by McClure or the Editor.

January 24th, 1774; At home all day. Mrs. Blackburn, her son and Miss Ellzey as also Mrs. Brown came to dinner and Dr. Brown in the afternoon as also did Valene Crawford.[5]

January 24, 1777: Following James Connell to the Youghiogheny, came his half— brother William and half-sister Rachel, who married Reason Began; an older brother Zachariah, who later founded Connellsville, and a younger brother Thomas. James Connell’s name is third in a list of twenty-four names on Lt. John Hickston’s Roll of Virginia Soldiers of 1776.. He supposedly died during the early part of the Revolutionary period, for later record of him seems to be lacking. It is quite likely that Ann was a widow prior to January 24, 1777, at which time her father acquired a deed from Ezekial Hickman, etal (and others), party of the one part, for three hundred acres, more or less, containing the home where Ann Connell and her family were living. Below the signature of William Crawford, party of the other part, was also the signature of Ann Connell and the document was witnessed by Providence Mounts, Benjamin Harrison and Thomas Moore, all of that date of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. The deed recorded the 28th of February 1784. It became part of Colonel William Crawford’s estate that was left to Ann in his will, signed on May 16, 1782, before the tragic Sandusky Expedition. Will Book 1, page 9, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.

January 24, 1865: The Confederate Congress agrees to continue prisoner exchanges, opening a process that had operated only sporadically for three years.

In the first year of the war, prisoner exchanges were conducted primarily between field generals on an ad hoc basis. The Union was reluctant to enter any formal agreements, fearing that it would legitimize the Confederate government. But the issue became more important as the campaigns escalated in 1862. On July 2, 1862, Union General John Dix and Confederate General Daniel H. Hill reached an agreement. Under the Dix-Hill cartel, each soldier was assigned a value according to rank. For example, privates were worth another private, corporals and sergeants were worth two privates, lieutenants were worth three privates, etc. A commanding general was worth 60 privates. Under this system, thousands of soldiers were exchanged rather than languishing in prisons like those in Andersonville, Georgia, or Elmira, New York.

The system was really a gentlemen's agreement, relying on the trust of each side. The system broke down in 1862 when Confederates refused to exchange black Union soldiers. From 1862 to 1865, prisoner exchanges were rare. When they did happen, it was usually because two local commanders came to a workable agreement. The result of the breakdown was the swelling of prisoner-of-war camps in both North and South. The most notorious of all the camps was Andersonville, where one-third of the 46,000 Union troops incarcerated died of disease, exposure, or starvation.

Though the prisoner exchanges resumed, the end of the war was so close that it did not make much difference. [12]

January 24, 1908: On January 24, 1908, the Boy Scouts movement begins in England with the publication of the first installment of Robert Baden-Powell's Scouting for Boys. The name Baden-Powell was already well known to many English boys, and thousands of them eagerly bought up the handbook. By the end of April, the serialization of Scouting for Boys was completed, and scores of impromptu Boy Scout troops had sprung up across Britain.

In 1900, Baden-Powell became a national hero in Britain for his 217-day defense of Mafeking in the South African War. Soon after, Aids to Scouting, a military field manual he had written for British soldiers in 1899, caught on with a younger audience. Boys loved the lessons on tracking and observation and organized elaborate games using the book. Hearing this, Baden-Powell decided to write a nonmilitary field manual for adolescents that would also emphasize the importance of morality and good deeds.

First, however, he decided to try out some of his ideas on an actual group of boys. On July 25, 1907, he took a diverse group of 21 adolescents to Brownsea Island in Dorsetshire where they set up camp for a fortnight. With the aid of other instructors, he taught the boys about camping, observation, deduction, woodcraft, boating, lifesaving, patriotism, and chivalry. Many of these lessons were learned through inventive games that were very popular with the boys. The first Boy Scouts meeting was a great success.

With the success of Scouting for Boys, Baden-Powell set up a central Boy Scouts office, which registered new Scouts and designed a uniform. By the end of 1908, there were 60,000 Boy Scouts, and troops began springing up in British Commonwealth countries across the globe. In September 1909, the first national Boy Scout meeting was held at the Crystal Palace in London. Ten thousand Scouts showed up, including a group of uniformed girls who called themselves the Girl Scouts. In 1910, Baden-Powell organized the Girl Guides as a separate organization.

The American version of the Boy Scouts has it origins in an event that occurred in London in 1909. Chicago publisher William Boyce was lost in the fog when a Boy Scout came to his aid. After guiding Boyce to his destination, the boy refused a tip, explaining that as a Boy Scout he would not accept payment for doing a good deed. This anonymous gesture inspired Boyce to organize several regional U.S. youth organizations, specifically the Woodcraft Indians and the Sons of Daniel Boone, into the Boy Scouts of America. Incorporated on February 8, 1910, the movement soon spread throughout the country. In 1912, Juliette Gordon Low founded the Girl Scouts of America in Savannah, Georgia.

In 1916, Baden-Powell organized the Wolf Cubs, which caught on as the Cub Scouts in the United States, for boys under the age of 11. Four years later, the first international Boy Scout Jamboree was held in London, and Baden-Powell was acclaimed Chief Scout of the world. He died in 1941.[13] Robert Baden-Powell was a Freemason. The compiler was an Eagle Scout and is also a Freemason.

MRS. S. C. GODLOVE BELOVED WOMAN, PASSES IN SLEEP



Death came in her sleep Friday night, January 24, 1936, to Mrs. Laura Belle

Godlove at her home at 345 North Bartlett street. The news of her passing

came as a distinct shock to a wide circle of friends, who knew her as a

kindly soul and woman of sterling character and Christian kindliness. She

had been a resident of this city for 25 years, and always held a high

interest in the activities of youth.



Mrs. Godlove was born March 15, 1867, on a farm in southern Oregon.



Friday evening she attended the Medford high-Ashland high basketball game

at the high school and was in usual good health and spirits. She returned

to her home and there made plans for a social event to be held last

evening. When her husband, Sherman C. Godlove, veteran mail carrier, went

to call her Saturday morning she had passed away.



Mrs. Godlove is survived, besides her husband, by two daughters, Mrs. Etha

W. Wall of Medford and Mrs. Charles Harrison of Redmond, ore.; seven

grandchildren, and Wilbur Godlove, a nephew, Los Angeles, Cal.



Funeral arrangements are in charge of the Conger Funeral home, the time of

which awaits the arrival of relatives from out-of-town points.[14]

January 24, 1943: The Nazis incinerated Jewish patients, nurses and doctors at Auschwitz-Birkenau[19]
