EXETER TOWNSHIP. "The Indians then passed over to Sutton’s creek, and encamped by a spring one or two rods in the rear of Samuel Bailey’s house. Near here they killed James Hadsall and his negro, and his nephew, James Hadsall. << Daniel Carr>> and Neezer Reynolds, both sons-in-law of the elder Hadsall, were taken prisoners. Reynolds made his escape, took his wife and children, departed, and has never been heard from. Carr returned after a captivity of seven years. His wife, supposing him to be dead and thinking she had waited a proper time, had engaged herself to be married to another man, and was preparing for the wedding. One day she heard some one come into the house; she went to see who it was, and met her husband face to face. She was so overcome she fainted. Of course the new match was never consummated."

Town records History of Luzerne, Lackawanna & Wyoming Counties, 1880. pp. 249-252. EXETER TOWNSHIP. In 1776 James Sutton, with << James Hadsall>> as partner, built the first grist-mill and saw-mill on Sutton’s creek, (now called at that place Coray creek). There the first grist was ground, and the first board sawed. Hadsall was murdered and the mill destroyed during the invasion of 1778, and all that remains of the old mill is a crank preserved by the Wyoming Historical and Geological Society as a relic of the oldest mill in the Wyoming valley. Another of Mr. Jones’s enterprises was the building of a store, which he kept during 1806 and 1807. Salt, which at that time cost $4 per bushel, was the principal article of commerce. The salt was necessary for preserving the shad which the settlers took from the river, they being their only article of meat diet. The bears claimed and enforced the first right to all the hogs. The goods were carted from Philadelphia by << James Hadsall>> , a man now 93 years old. A few years showed the fruits of this neglect in a generation of illiterate young men and women, who had to avail themselves, even after they were of age, of such advantages as were afforded by the schools of 1800. In the old log school-house, which stood near George Miller’s, long rows of these young men and women came to have Master Josiah Beach teach them to read. The first term begun by him was finished by John McMillen, whose descendants are among the present residents of the township. << James Hadsall>> , now ninety-three years of age, is the only survivor of those who attended this first district school. ------------------------------------ History of Luzerne, Lackawanna & Wyoming Counties, 1880. pp. 264-267. FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP. The oldest man in the township is << James Hadsall>> , whose 94th birthday occurred on the 20th of March, 1880. He is the son of Edward Hadsall, whose father James was killed by the Indians in 1778, just a little way down Sutton creek below where Mr. Hadsall now lives. He has spent most of his life in Exeter, but has lived in Franklin about thirty years. His wife is some years his junior. They have been married more than seventy years.
