Husband of Magdalen (Eckstein) Case.
First Fourth
The first celebration of the Fourth of July was had in 1800, on the place of Ehraim Quinby. The twin brothers, Elam and Eli Blair, the one a fifer and the other a drummer, made their own instruments; the fife from an elder and the drum from a block of pepperidge, having heads of deerskin, the snares being made from a set of plow-lines belonging to Meshach Case.
It does not appear that any oration was delivered, though an excellent dinner was served up in an arbor, which toasts were honored with the usual stimulus and firing of guns. John Leavitt acted as Militia Captain.
A number of guests were present from abroad, among whom were John Young and Calvin Austin, of Youngstown, General Paine and Judge Eliphalet Austin, from the Lake Shore, with others from other points.
