Columbia's First Speeding Case

Columbia Daily Tribune, 25 June 1909, p. 1/col. 5.

FIRST SPEED LIMIT CASE
AUTO DRIVER APPEALED TO CIRCUIT COURT

The case of the City of Columbia against Ray Dunlap, an automobile driver charged with violating the city speed limit ordinance, was tried before Justice Stockton yesterday afternoon before a jury. The case is one "of first impression" in Columbia. Officer E.E. Beasley testified that he held a stop watch on the machine as it ran the block from the court house to Broadway on Eighth street and that the machine was going at a greater rate than eight miles an hour. Dunlap was fined $5 and costs. The case was appealed to circuit court.

Commentary:
Ray Dunlap/Dunlapp was an early automobile enthusiast who opened an automobile service garage. Maybe he was "testing" one of his new machines. Justice Stockton was Judge James T. Stockton. Officer Beasley was Everett E. Beasley.  A 1910 photograph of Columbia police officers, including E.E. Beasley, was published in Images of our Lives Since 1901, Columbia Daily Tribune, Columbia, Missouri 2001, p. 19.

On the Road to Smithton in 1820

[Franklin] Missouri Intelligencer, August 26, 1820, p. 3, col. 5:

CAUTION TO TRAVELLERS. On the main road from St. Charles to Franklin, about 75 miles from the latter, as the writer of this was informed at Mr. Fruits; he did not advance from that place above a quarter of a mile when he observed a road branching off towards the left and a sign post setting forth that the road to Franklin, by Smithton, is only 62 miles. Now this same road, when it branches off, and indeed, continues for several miles very smooth, and well marked with carriage wheels, drawn, it would seem for the mere purpose of enticing the traveller that way. Having advanced perhaps 7 miles, he arrives at a house, previous to which, the carriage marks and road nearly vanish, then he is guided, chiefly by blazed trees and stakes, “many a weary, many a wandering foot,” through as tedious a rout as ever bewildered wight explored, without seeing a house or habitation, for about 20 miles; then, at Mr. Todd’s he will learn that Smithton is still 8 miles distant–a town consisting of one or two houses, where he cannot be accommodated. The only alternative left him is, to make the best of his way to the main road, by crossing, in a north direction, about 4 miles. Whether the motives of the projectors of this tedious route were to aid or mislead the traveller, or to answer some other private purpose, the writer, being an entire stranger, will not take upon him to say–but can assure them they have any thing but his thanks, and those of his horse, for his pains & shall only add, whoever would comprehend the following confusion “Had you seen this road before it was made, you’d lift up your hands and thank? General ‘Wade’” had best go this road.
A TRAVELLER

Commentary:

Many have been the times we have heard that the enterprising proprietors of the Smithton company rerouted travelers on the Boone’s Lick road through their new town. The main road that crossed Boone County about six miles north of Smithton, later Columbia, passed through no towns at this time, but it was well traveled and marked, had been cleared of most obstacles, and passed several taverns where the traveler could stop. Compare that situation with this fascinating firsthand account of what the first unsuspecting wayfarers who took the "new" road to Smithton, later Columbia, experienced. Mr. Fruit would have been Enoch or Alexander Fruit(e), both of whom settled in Callaway County in 1819 near present Williamsburg. This was the point of departure for the new south branch of the Boone’s Lick road through Columbia. The Mr. Todd mentioned was probably North R. Todd, who had property near the present community of Shaw at the intersection of Rt. Z and St. Charles Road.

A Missionary Tour of the Boon's Lick Country in 1818

[Columbia] Missouri Statesman, April 3, 1857, p. 1, col. 2, from the diary of Rev. J.M. Peck Originally written by Rev. Peck in 1818 while traveling the Boone’s Lick road in soon-to-be Boone county.

From the St. Louis Watchman.
Reminiscences of Missouri—1818—19.
BY AN OLD PIONEER—( REV. J.M. PECK.)

Missionary Tour to the Boon’s Lick Country.

December 25th, 1818.—The people with whom I tarried last night are young, with one little child, appear to be in fine health and spirits, and have come to this new country to obtain land at government prices when it comes into market. They are industrious, active, and keep private entertainment for travelers. They are not religious, but civil and quiet, as were four travelers, who tarried at the same place.—Learning by inquiry, that I was a missionary, I was invited to pray with the company before we retired. This morning they refused pay for my entertinment; invited me to call and preach whenever I passed that way. To-day my route was first across the Two-Mile Prairie. It derives its name from its average width, commences between two points of timber towards the Missouri, and extends a long distance northward, until lost inthe Grand Prairie. Here are about a dozen families in log cabins, scattered along its borders.

Cruising this prairie in a horse train and after riding several miles through timber and brushwood, I came to a Mr. H___’s, where report said breakfast could be obtained, and which offered quite a contrast with the family of last night. The cabin was a single room of most primitive fashion, spice bush tea was a substitute for coffee, and the flesh of hog, bear, deer, and elk, was plenty of which the landlord showed me enough to supply a regiment. The corn-dodgers were cold and quite unpalatable; for the good woman had never learned the art of cleanliness and cookery. The man was a successful hunter, but probably understood very little of agriculture. I paid fifty cents for these accommodations- for my horse was lame and refused to eat.

As I proceeded westward, cabins and smokes from clearings became more frequent. The Methodist circuit preachers, Messrs. McAllister and Jones, pass through and preach in these scattering settlements about once in six weeks, and Dr. David Doyle, A Baptist minister from North Carolina, settled the last spring to the left of my trail, and near the Two-Mile Prairie. He will soon gather the scattered Baptists of this region into the field.
[Dr. Doyle is still living in this (Boone) county, honored and beloved, in a green old age.—ED. STATESMAN.]
I could only travel my broken down horse in a slow walk, and night found me under the hospitable roof of Mr. Crump, where I was kindly entertained. He was not a professor of religion but had the character of an orderly, excellent man. His wife was a neat, tidy person, and the mother of three children.

Dec. 26th, 1818.—As I was about to start on my way towards Franklin, a Baptist by name of Anderson Woods came along and was hailed by Mr. Crump. He was on his way to the monthly meeting of Bethel Church at the house of Lazarus Wilcox, and finding my horse was none the better, I struck into the trail, and in half an hour we were at the place of meeting, and soon surrounded by the members of the church and others. Brother Woods was not then in the ministry, but could lead a meeting in prayer and exhortation. By request, I preached to the little congregation before church meeting, and again at night to six persons, one of whom was a deaf mute from his birth. He was singularly intelligent for one of that unfortunate class. He knew what were about in worshiping God. His brother, deacon Wilcox, related an incident that ws proof of his knowledge and correct views of the infinitely Holy God. He had occasion to correct his little son for telling a lie.

The deaf mute was much attached to the child, and when the father had corrected and given him a serious talk, the mute got an old book in the house, with divers religious emblems for a frontispiece. One of these was the figure of a large human eye in one of the upper corners. The deaf mute placed the boy between his knees, and while the tears of sympathy and sorrow rolled down his cheeks, he pointed to the emblem of the All-seeing Eye, raised it upward and then to the boy, as though he would pierce him. This was the most impressive way he could say, “the Eye of God, is on you, looks into your heart, and will punish you for lying.” This was done several times. This man, as I learned at a subsequent period, told his exprience to the church by signs—his brother being interpreter—was baptized and lived a Christian life.

Bethel Church was situated on the waters of the Moniteau, twenty miles east of Old Franklin. It was organized June 27th, 1817, by the ministry of Elders David McLain and William Thorp. Elder Edward Turner made them occasional visits, but was not present at the time of my visit. The constituents were Anderson Woods, Betsy Woods, David McQuitty, John Turner and James Harris, all emigrants from Kentucky but Mr. McQuitty, who came from Cape Girardeau county.

On Lord’s day, the 27th, 1818, the weather was pleasant, the sun shone bright, and all nature appeared gay and cheerful. The people report the season as unusually mild and pleasant. I preached from 1st Pet. iii: 18. The house contained two rooms, and was crowded with people, who gave rspectful attention. The settlers in this region, in general, appear to be a respectable class of citizens, tolerably well informed, and enjoy gospel privileges to a greater extent than in most parts of the territory.

On Monday, I rode through the country to Franklin, found a Baptist family by name of Wiseman, where I had been directed to call. A hasty appointment was circulated, and I preached to a room full of people. Franklin is a village of about seventy families (so says my journal of that date). It is situated on the left bank of the Missouri, and on the border of an extensive tract of rich, alluvial bottom land, covered with a heavy forest, except where the axe and fires had destroyed the undergrowth, “deadened” the timber and prepared the fields for the largest crops of corn.

If our readers wish to find the site of this flourishing town–as it then appeared to promise—they must examine the bed of the river directly opposite Boonville. Repeated floods, many years since, drove the inhabitants to the bluff, with such of their houses as could be removed, where New Franklin, not a very [?????] place, now stands. At the period of our visit, no town west of St. Louis, gave better promise for rapid growth than Franklin.—There was no church formed in the village, but I found fourteen Baptists there.
ROCK SPRING, Ill., March 12, 1857

Commentary by David Sapp:

This wonderful piece by the the Baptist preacher Rev. J.M. Peck describes his travels in late 1818 along the Boone’s Lick road across all of later Boone couny to the town of Franklin. Though published in 1857, he appears to have used journal entries made during the trip.

The Rev. Peck seems to have spent Christmas eve, Dec. 24, near Cedar Creek. I have not been able to determine who the family was that he stayed with that night.

It is clear, however, that breakfast the next morning with “Mr. H_____” was taken with Robert Hinkson and family. Rev. Peck, or maybe the newspaper editor, used a common convention of the time in referring to him by his first initial only (possibly because Peck’s comments weren’t the most flattering). Robert Hinkson’s place was at the intersection of the Boone’s Lick road and Hinkson Creek, what is now the Hinkson Creek crossing point on O’Rear Road. Hinkson’s was five miles east of Cedar Creek, an easy morning ride before breakfast.

The Crump family where Peck spent the next night was probably that of George Crump and his wife who had settled in the north central part of Missouri township. Little more is known about this family.

The next day, Dec. 26, Peck soon encountered Anderson Woods and others around Bethel Church, about 3/4 of a mile north of the road. It is interesting that Peck did not mention Thrall’s or anything else suggesting a significant presence along the road in what was or would become Lexington, though it is also clear if you were a Baptist or a “religious” person, you were more likely to have been mentioned by the good reverend.

The Wiseman family in Franklin may have been that of James Wiseman, later settler in the south Boone county area.

Surveyed to a variation of 8° to the East. Platted on a scale of 40 feet to an inch. Recorded 12th March 1830. Guitar Wm. Shields S.B.C.

Parker C. B. [Chair Bearer]

Commentary:

Oliver Parker was a risk-taker and fortune seeker who came to the Boone’s Lick country soon after the conclusion of the War of 1812. He established the first store in Boone County at Lexington on Thrall’s Prairie in 1818 or 1819 and obtained the first post office commission at his store. He married Augustus Thrall’s daughter, Mary.

Parker and his new wife abandoned Lexington for the promises of Columbia about 1823. He purchased Lot #216 on the northwest corner of Eighth and Broadway for his first home and store house. Parker, for unknown reasons, had a complete survey of this lot done that included not only the usual lot lines, but the exact location of all structures complete with detailed descriptions of these structures. This is the only recorded survey in all of the early Boone County records that carries detail about structures. What a wonderful, detailed “picture” it gives us of this early lot in Columbia.

W.C. Maupin’s General Store Day Book, Nashville, Boone county, Missouri: 1850-1852

This day book, used by Waller C. Maupin at his general store at Nashville, Boone county, from 28 August 1850 to 20 December 1852, was donated to the Boone County Historical Society in 2007 by Mrs. Joseph (Hallie) Colvin, of Columbia, and Ray & Linda McKenzie, of Hallsville.

Each time a person purchased something from the store, Maupin entered the name and a list of items and their prices so he could have a record of sales and amounts owed him. William Switzler in his 1882 History of Boone County Missouri reported that the Maupins, natives of Virginia, moved to Missouri in 1837 and on to Boone county in 1845 and that W.C. Maupin kept a “store at Nashville, ten miles southwest of Columbia.” The day book also contains some names and records from later years that are not included in the listing which follows.

The names which follow show the customers of the Maupin store in Nashville during the period mentioned. Each name is shown only once even though the person may have had many different transactions at the store over the two year period. Others may have only shown up in the book once or twice. Names have been listed as they were spelled. Many were obviously spelled incorrectly – e.g. Crain for Crane, Vanerver for Vandiver, etc. Numerous entries were difficult to read and those have been highlighted with a ? mark following the hard-to-read word.

Enjoy this rare record of many of our early pioneers around the Nashville area. If your ancestor is listed here, imagine him or her stopping by to chat with Maupin and picking up much needed “store bought” supplies.
