Excerpt from Wadsworth Memorial, 1875: Containing an Account of the Proceedings of the Celebration of the Sixtieth Anniversary of the First Settlement of the Township of Wadsworth, Ohio It is the history of manhood left to develop itself in its normal method. Mind asserting and maintaining its eu premecy over matter. Man taking the dominion of the world, as originally intended by the Creator. Each within himself a lord. Walking erect in the conscious dignity of the divine image. Men, no longer mere creatures of cir cumstances, like the serfs and peasants of the Eastern Hem isphere, ground into nothingness between the upper and nether millstones of an artificial and false social system, but making their own circumstances. The ground swell of rising humanity breaking up the stagnant sea, and moving forward the rising wave of a new civilization, destined in its course to sweep the whole earth, and prepare a. New soil where a new order of things may spring up and grow. American history begins not with a nation, but with small communities. N o invading armies or barbarous hoards overrunning a land, but here and there a shipload of peaceful immigrants, coming to found, not find, a new or der of things. N ot to receive, but to make a country. The primitive settlement grows into the town, the town into the county, the county into the State, and the State into the nation. The social compact signed voluntarily in the cabin of the immigrant: ship, grows into the town ordinance, -the town ordinance into the county regulation, the county reg hlation into the State law, and the State laws into the national constitution. Thus a country, a people, and ana tion form themselves 011 the Creator's model - the germ the blade, the developing and matured fruit.
