1 o Uni v e r s i t y HE Legislative history of Ohio University dates back to 1787 when the Congress of the United States passed its famous Ordinance for the promotion of the settlement of the great West. Two men are largely responsible for the existence of Ohio University: General Rufus Putnam, and the Reverend Manasseh Cutler. It was General Putnam who led the first band of settlers to the Hockhocking River, eventually starting a settlement on the ground where the city of Athens is today. The Reverend Cutler made the legislative and legal arrangements needed to set up the Ohio Company, which was the parent ( if the State of Ohio. General Putnam called the famous meeting at the Bunch of Grapes Tavern in Boston in 1786 to then and there consider and determine on a general plan of association for the Ohio Company. General Putnam was elected general supervisor of the Company, which was a tribute to this self-educated man, who, in the tradition of colonial America, made such institutions as Ohio University possible.
