, , fs lv: X, 1 XM' as fx. -iz?-a Many legendary and romamic incidents are woven into the histori- cal background of Peru. Its history be- gins with the treaty negotiated with Miami Indians at the mouth of the Mississinewa River on October 23, 1826. 'Ilhe following Feb- ruary, John McGregor built a small cabin in the western part of ihis reservation, and he has the credit of being the first white man to establish a permanent homo within the limits of Miami County. In 1842 the first town government was estab- lished, but the city of .1 XS ffl Q a J Xf N A L, x FNAN N ,fxfs .Cl gy e V' Peru did not become ' l incorporated until 1867.

DEAR OLD PERU There may be a better town somewhere, under the bending skies, But nowhere a scene that appears so fair to her loyal children's eyes As the winding river, the verdant hills and the city that lies between, A city whose broad and home-girt streets seem buttressed with living green. Nowhere does heaven seem to smile on a landscape as passing sweet, , And nowhere are pathways that seem so much like home to our wandering feet, And nowhere do friends like the old appear, though we travel the wide world thru, And nowhere are memories half so dear as cluster about Peru. Oh, winding river and verdant hills and city that lies between, May heavens choice blessing upon thee fall and a Providence unseen, Follow thy children at home and afar, and keep them the long years thru, True to the faith and the friends of youth, and loyal to old Peru. GEO. B. LOCKWOOD, '89.
