It is, therefore, within the bounds of that part of Northern Ohio widely known as the Connecticut Western Reserve, which was first settled some forty-five or fifty years ago by the representatives of Puritan New England, and has ever since been noted for the characteristics of the men who founded and shaped its social, political, and religious insti tutions.
