Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, 1917, Vol. 41 At the Pennypacker Reunion, held October 4th, 1877, our late President in describing a member of the family who had become a Senator of the United States, said: Reverdy Johnson wrote to me of Isaac S., of Virginia, that possessing 'sterling integrity he had the confi dence of every man in the Senate.' Thaddeus Stevens complained of Elijah F. That he was 'too damned honest, ' and this trait, which seems to cr0p out even in our politicians, I think we may claim as a family char acteristic. He also said: Physically we are gener ally large, with dark hair and eyes, and if we could get our neighbors to repeat to us the comments they some times make in our absence, we would probably learn that we wear full sized stockings and are not handsome.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, 1889, Vol. 13 I declined your appointment as historian of the bar and bench of Allegheny County. I found that the admissions to this bar in 1863 had been six hundred and fifty. The correspondence and labor of collecting information and the compilation of even a partial number of sketches would ex tend over many months, resulting in a large book instead of a modest pamphlet appropriate to this occasion. I there fore undertook to furnish a few sketches only of promi nent lawyers of the last century and earlier years of this. Brief as these must be, they occupy a large space. But too much cannot be sacrificed to brevity. It would be to omit much that is interesting, and leave virtues, peculiarities, and true character often obscure.

Connected with this mill were two coke furnaces, built in 1863. The company operated the works until Sep tember, 186 7, when they were leased by Springer Harbaugh. On January 1, 1870, Harbaugh, Mathias Owens took pos session as owners, and on August 1, 1874, they failed, when the manufacture of rails was abandoned. The works them selves have long been abandoned A few other iron-rail mills in Western Pennsylvania, including those which were equipped for the manufacture only of mine rails and other light rails, need not be mentioned. Of these mills those which made rails of heavy sections never at any time pro duced any considerable tonnage. It is a noteworthy fact that Allegheny County, with all its enterprise in the manufacture of iron and steel, did not begin to make rails of heavy sec tions until the Superior Rolling Mill was built in 1865. Iron rails are not now made in Western Pennsylvania, except occasionally a very few tons of light rails for lum ber and mine roads.
