The town [of Williamsport] then consisted of five families, viz: William Harrison, the proprietor of the village, who kept the ferry, and a litle tavern and grocery at the foot of main stret; Dr. Jas. H. Buell, Ullery, Search and a man called Wild Cat Wilson. Two only (Harrison and Wilson) of the families above named had children large enough to go to school. The rest of my patrons lived in the country, some two or three miles from town, and consisted of John Seamans, sheriff of he county, Wesley Clark, Robb, Hickenbotham, and one or two more.
