The Rev. Daniel Story, who left Dr. Cutler's house in No-
vember, 1788, to go as a religious teacher to the settlement at
Marietta, where he arrived in March, 1789, had cheerfully
borne the privations and perils of pioneer life. He had en-
countered a year of famine and the dangers of nearly five
years of Indian warfare, faithfully preaching the Gospel, when
his hearers came to attend the Sabbath services armed with
their rifles; and he went to the outposts, Belpre and Waterford,
when a military guard was necessary for his protection. On
the return of peace, he gathered together those to whom the
Word was precious, and formed them into a Church of Christ,
at Marietta, the first Congregational Church ever established
west of the Alleghany Mountains. Then, after more than
eight years of arduous missionary labor, he went back to Mas-
sachusetts. A call from the people who had so long enjoyed
his ministrations, and still earnestly desired to have them
continued, followed him to his eastern home:
