OCT 30 1916 Ihdiaita Centennial Celgbbation TRIBUTE TO JUDGE HOWARD The success of the Pageant is due, largely, to the enthusiasm and hard work of Judge Howard. His loss is felt deeply by his fellow workers and all who knew him. His memory will remain with us, an inspira- tion. FOREWORD "The Reason Why" of the Pageant That we may know more of the dreams, struggles, hard- ships and rewards of those sturdy pioneers who braved the terrors of a new country. That we may enjoy with a fuller knowledge the improved conditions they left us. That the community may be welded together in a com- mon interest, and the work, so well started, carried forward. Appreciations The cast is so large that it is impossible to print the names of all. As the success of the production is due in a large meas- ure to their efforts, the people of St. Joseph Valley owe to them their heartiest appreciation. Thanks is also due to all who have furnished historic material, and to the newspapers for their able co-operation. Note on First Page of Programme It has been the aim of the Writing Committee to con- form to history in all important events and details so far as records can be found. However, many occurrences of great length are shown in the space of a few minutes, and many interesting happenings necessarily have been omitted. Indiana Centennial Celebration A Bit of Indiana History Long before the coming of the white men to the beautiful St. Joseph Valley, different tribes of In- dians hunted and fought over the ground. The Algonquin race, of which the Miamis were a tribe, tilled the soil, raising their much loved corn. The Iroquois Indians, warlike and barbarous, would not work to raise grain. They were great hunters, however, and to obtain the corn they needed, either traded game for it or seized it by force. Many of the old roads, such as the Crumstown road and the Chicago-Detroit road, were Indian trails. Many of these trails, indeed, were here be- fore the coming of the Indians, made by the buffalo, elk and deer, each being the shortest course between water holes, or routes taken by the animals during their migrations. The Pottawatomie Indians were known as the "canoemen." They came to the St. Joseph valley, near the Portage between the St. Joseph River and the Kankakee River. They were usually peaceable and had many friends in the village of South Bend. It was a sad time for both the Indians and vil- lagers when they were driven, by order of the Gov- ernment, farther West.

He spent his life estab- lishing missions for the "Red children" throughout the Middle West, and he died when he was only thirty- eight as the result of hardships. His headquarters were at St. Ignace, on Macki- nac Island. Starting upon his last voyage, he left his mission in Illinois with three faithful friends and traveled north, either by way of the Chicago river or by our own Portage. He was very ill, and a few days after his passage through this section, died upon the shore of Lake Michigan, a little north of St. Joseph, deeply mourned by his faithful converts. 1679 After Marquette, the next white man to visit the St. Joseph valley was LaSalle. He hoped to find a way through the continent to the Pacific Ocean, that his French King might trade direct with the Orient. He followed the Great Lakes, coming down Lake Michigan and turning up the St. Joseph river. With him were about thirty priests, carpenters and an Indian guide. Snow was falling and they missed the Portage, the Indian guide. White Beaver, being away hunting. LaSalle landed and walked nearly to Osceola look- ing for the Portage. Later LaSalle made a treaty with the Miami Indians that was of great value to all the French set- tlers in America. He understood the Indians well and always showed rare good judgment in his dealings with them. Charlevoix came in 1721 and found the Potta- watomies here.

Indiana Centennial Celebration 1779 About this time General George Rogers Clarke captured Kaskaskia, and with Father Gibault, took possession of Vincennes. Fort St. Joseph was located on the east bank of the St. Joseph river between Niles and South Bend. It was a British fort. 1763 When the land east of the Mississippi was lost to France, by the treaty of 1763, the Spanish sent an expedition up from St. Louis and stormed and burned Fort St. Joseph. The spot is now marked by a great boulder. 1794 Little Turtle, the Miami Chief, at war for many years with the whites, finally was defeated by Gen- eral Anthony Wayne. 1800 Indiana Territory was created in 1800 and Wil- liam Henry Harrison was made Governor. Tecum- seh and his brother, the "Prophet," made their head- quarters at Prophet's Town, Indiana, near Lafayette. 1810 In 1810, with about fifty warriors, they met Gov- ernor Harrison in council. Tecumseh's speech was eloquent in behalf of his injured red brothers, who were being crowded further west. 1811 A year later General Harrison defeated the In- dians in the Battle of Tippecanoe. 1815 Joseph Bertrand was the first white settler to remain in the St. Joseph valley. He married Made- line, the daughter of Chief Topinabee.

Indiana Centennial Celebration 1820 Pierre Frieschutz Navarre was the first white man to settle in South Bend. His home was on the north side of the St. Joseph river, near the Michigan Street bridge. His cabin stands in Leeper Park today. He established a fur-trading post. He was a fish- erman, too, and caught many of the great sturgeon which ascended the St. Joseph river from Lake Michigan. He married an Indian girl. 1816 On April 19, 1816 Congress passed the Enabling Act, authorizing the people of Indiana to form a State Government. On June 29, 1816, the Constitutional Convention at Corydon adopted the Constitution. In December of the same year, Indiana was ad- mitted to the Union. In this same year the father of Abraham Lincoln moved to Indiana with his wife and two children. They were very poor. The young Lincoln, a few years later, worked on a river boat going into New Orleans. It was here that he received his first impressions of slavery. 1823 Alexis Coquillard came here a young man of 22. He located a trading post on what was then called Dragoon Trace, now Lincoln Way East. Later he moved it to the northeast corner of LaSalle Avenue and Michigan Street. His home was a spacious log cabin and was long used as a trading post, a residence, the town hall and court house. Here the first ferry boats crossed the river. Mr. Coquillard was a man of great vision, and we owe much of South Bend, as it is today, to his broad- mindedness and foresight. iNoiARA Centennial Celebbation Episode V staged by Coquillard Parent-Teachers' Association, Notre Dame University, Red Men and Canoe Club In charge of C.

Indiana Centennial Celebbation 1827 A little later Col. Lathrop M. Taylor worked shoulder to shoulder with him, both giving freely of themselves to better conditions for those coming after them. Alexis Coquillard married Francis Comperet, the nineteen-year-old daughter of his partner, in Ft. Wayne. He brought her here a year after his first coming. Across from the fur-trading post came, in time, the first newspaper office, that of the Northwestern Pioneer, South Bend, at that time was called "South Hold." Father Badin, the first priest to be ordained in the United States, came here about 1830 or 1831 and worked faithfully at the mission of Notre Dame "of the Lake." When the Indians were ordered west, he followed them. Father Badin's protege and interpreter was an intelligent young Indian girl named "Waceta." When it became known that the Pottawatomie Indians were to be sent farther west. Father Badin sent for a young Indian friend named John Peash- way. Waceta and Peashway fell in love, were mar- ried by Father Badin before his departure, and settled in South Bend. Jean Beaudoin, the young Frenchman who had come in Coquillard's party was in Wisconsin about this time. He stopped in an Indian wigwam in the tribe of Chief "Black Hawk." "Black Hawk" had been given orders to move his tribe across the river toward the west and away from their fields of corn which had not yet ripened. In revenge, he planned to raid the frontier and massacre all whites, including the villagers of South Bend. Jean Beaudoin started at once on his mission of warning the whites. He ran 160 miles, his trip made more difficult by a broken arm.

TRIRTBRK Indiana Centennial Celebbation Having no strength to go around the great Kan- kakee marsh when he reached it, he made his way through it in the night, probably the first white man to find his way across the marsh. The heroic run, which cost his life, was in vain, for Black Hawk's raid was shortlived and ended long before he reached South Bend. A three-cornered fort was built for protection against the Indians. The fort was located upon the plot of ground west of the standpipe, bounded by the streets that are now called Lincoln Way East, Jeffer- son and St. Joseph. It was surrounded by a stockade of split logs eight or ten feet long, and furnished very good protection. 1842 Father Badin, Father Petit, Father de Seille had all worked faithfully with the Indians and settlers, here and at the mission. Now came Father Sorin; that man of courage and vision and unfaltering faith. His dream was to build a great University from the humble mission at the lake, and he and his little band had need of hardyhood, as well as courage, for they had almost no money, and only a tiny log hut for protection, though the winter was a most severe one. A few years later, fire wiped out a large part of their buildings, and one winter, disease destroyed a large number of their band. Their trials have been many but the fruit of their labors is the beautiful University as it stands today. The Sisters of the Holy Cross, with self sacri- ficing devotion have reared beautiful and far-famed St. Mary's. Father Sorin was instrumental in bringing St. Mary's Academy from Bertrand to its present site. 1830 In New Carlisle the first Methodist Church of the country was organized with eight members.

InniANA Centennial Celebration Mishawaka is composed of several tiny hamlets, that were called, respectively, "St. Joseph Iron Works" (vi^here James Oliver worked as a lad). "Barbee town" and "Indiana City," the latter having been the settlement on the north side of the river. The Sisters of the Holy Cross were at one time located in Indiana City. Bogg iron was discovered just south of the pres- ent Mishawaka, and the iron works located nearby. It was said by Alexis Coquillard that the name Mishawaka, meant "rapid water between wooded banks." Alanson M. Hurd is generally regarded as the founder of Mishawaka, althought Wm. L. Earl, A. B. Judson, Deming, Crocker and many others advanced the interests of the early town in every possible way. The history of Mishawaka is one of industry and progress. Many amusing incidents are told of the old days. Today Mishawaka stands, busy and progressive, a testimony to the public spirit of its citizens, past and present. It is possible that the great fire of 1872, which wiped out the business district, and which, at the time, was considered a great disaster, was in reality a spur to the combined effort of the community, and therefor, of lasting benefit. Mishawaka is, without doubt, the most beautiful town of its size in the country, which has manufac- turing as its industry. Located as it is in the lovely St. Joseph valley, it is a gem in a beautiful setting. 1840 About the year 1840, Mrs. Tyra Bray, of South Bend, angered at her husband's neglect of business, on account of politics, and his failure to keep her supplied with firewood on ironing day, decided to take a half-day from work every week "to enjoy her- self and learn something." She was joined in her high-minded purpose by thirteen other women known Indiana Centennial Cbl ebbation Episode XV * staged by Mishawaka High School and Old Fire Company In charge of Ike Hutchins, Misa Perry and Mr. Legg Scene : Mishawaka Mishawaka burns, 1872.

One afternoon they walked to Mishawaka to hear a political speech, to the consternation and shame of all their men folks. We come to you from the vanished years. When our task was to toil and scrub. We are those rebellious pioneers — The original Woman's Club. We bore our part with cheerful heart, At wheel and loom and tub, But we took a day to steal away And enjoy the Woman's Club. Our neighbors judged with a judgment harsh. They gave us many a snub, But we looked away to this far-off day, When you honor the Woman's Club. — Song by Mrs. E. B. Harris. The years preceding the Civil war, found South Bend building saw mills, grist mills and the first dam, a semi-public utility. In the early days, currency was very scarce. The dam was built largely by subscription and as the usual commodities used for barter were furs, honey, sassafras, beeswax, etc., other means had to be found for building the dam. The citizens paid their subscriptions in labor, and manufacturers, mechanics, professional men, labor- ers and farmers worked side by side until the dam was completed. We owe much of South Bend's industrial import- ance to the sturdy and public spirited men who built the first dam. 1841-1845 From New Carlisle came our most illustrious citi- zen, Schuyler Colfax, who in 1845, became the editor of the South Bend Free Press, later known as The St. Joseph Valley Register.

NINCTSBN Indiana CENXENNiAr, Celebration In a short time the paper gained powerful and widespread influence. Mr. Colfax served many terms in Congress and became vice-president under Grant. 1849 About this time gold was discovered in California and during the next ten years many expeditions were fitted out to go West. The first ones were called "The Argonauts". Mules and oxen and horses drew the crude prairie schooners, and while great hardships were endured, many interesting happenings relieved the months of tedious travel. The Michigan road was the main highway, and although the bog holes were treacherous in rainy weather and the sand deep at other times, much shipping was done over it. Great keel boats were poled up and down the river, carrying out skins, grain, maple sugar and lumber and bringing to us in return coffee, guns, dry goods and manufactured articles. 1851 The coming of the first railroad made great changes in the business life of the settlers. The keel boats were now useless. The Michigan and Chicago-Detroit roads were no longer of first importance. The stage coach as a means of travel ceased to exist. The locomotive of the first train was called the "John Striker" and was greeted by the largest crowd ever seen in the St. Joseph valley up to that time. The "Underground Railroad," famous during the period leading up to the war, came north through South Bend. Many thrilling escapes of the slaves to Canada are remembered by pioneers.

TWBNTT-ONI Indiana Centennial Celebbaiion The finding of the great underground flow was considered a most fortunate circumstance by the early settlers. When it became necessary to put in a pumping station, there were under consideration two systems for producing pressure. The Holly system, vouched for by J. M. Studebaker and the Standpipe system devoutly believed in by Leighton Pine. The excitement ran high and all South Bend took sides with one man or the other. The standpipe system was accepted, much to the disappointment of Mr. Studebaker. So small was his faith in the system that he wagered a cow that it could not produce a stream strong enough to drive him from the cupola of the Studebaker factory. The force was sufficient, however, and he was compelled to make a hasty descent. In justice to Mr. Studebaker, it should be stated that a short time ago, South Bend adopted the direct pressure system so dear to his heart. "FORWARD, NOT BACKWARD" And so we come to the end of this Story of One- Hundred Years. As people of Indiana and as citizens of St. Joseph county, we stand upon the threshold of a new century. We have looked upon the past with pride in achievement; we cannot but face the future with new sense of responsibility. It is now for us to make our record a worthy con- tinuation of that we have just perused. St. Joseph county has its part to play in the Indi- ana of the future and we, as citizens of St. Joseph county, have upon us the duty of building a common- wealth worthy of the noblest part. We are aided by every advantage. Ours is a county not only of rare beauty, but of endless opportunity — attributes which bespeak for her continued growth and prosperity.

Our manufacturing industries, already "world- famed," are multiplying. Our education and public recreation systems are widely praised. Two noble colleges further associate our name with progress along the higher lines. And a splendid scheme of Civic and Community Center organizations is uniting our population in spirit and in aims as it never before was united. One must compare the present with the past to realize our progress. In 1840 there was not a mile of good turnpike in the state. New Harmony fostered the first woman's club in the country and developed our educational laws in advance of our sister states. An enlightened Hoosier, serving in the State Legislature sixty or more years ago, recommended that Criminal Laws must be made with regard to reformation and not vindicative justice. A hundred years has seen the "circuit reader" making his lonely rounds ; tiny churches replace the meetings in homes and school houses, and large churches take the place of the small ones. But this is not so much the time to boast of past and present as to look to the future. For we have problems as well as prosperity. Empty is the fame of him who wins his laurels but to rest upon ; for tomorrow they may be stolen. But glorious is the name of him who endeavors his own records to supersede; his laurels are ever renewed. Never must we develop the sluggard's content, but must grow, rather, in the spirit which will lead us "to see ourselves as ithers see us" — And forever to court the Unrest of Constant Striving.
