The ordinance of 1787, establishing Territorial Governments, and providing for the erection of not 9 less than three nor more than five States, had opened to immigra- tion and settlement the country northwest of the river Ohio ; while the extension of the main provisions of that act to the country south of that river had created a civil government for the people of the Southwest Territory. The tide of immigration had commenced rolling westward, and was rushing across the Alle- ghanies through e...very pass and gorge in the mountains. The bold adventurer, rejoicing in danger and novelty — the unfortu- nate, who hoped to regain his lost position — the poor emigrant, with his wife and children, all that he could claim as his own on earth — could be seen wending their way, by the Buffalo paths and Indian trails, to what seemed to them a promised land. The Carolinians had descended the French Broad, had stretched along the Holston, and penetrated the valley of the Cumberland. These early pioneers were a peculiar people — hardy, daring, impatient of restraint, and simple in their habits of life.
