Excerpt from Reminiscences of Elyria, Ohio: Dedicated to the Lorain County Historical Society, March 1, 1900In 1816, Mr. Heman Ely, of West Springfield, Mass, left his home in a sulky, came to Buffalo, from there he finished his journey on horseback. In coming along the lake shore he followed the trail through the woods along the lake. The ground was soft and gave way, the horse's hind feet were thrown over the high bank, but he clung with his fore feet to the ground and the life of the founder of Elyria was saved. Mr. Ely made his home with Moses Eldred, who kept a log tavern two miles east of Elyria, known at this date as the Savage farm.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
