LIFE OF UNUSUAL INTEREST
Mrs. Jane Wales Nicholson today celebrates herone-hundredth birthday anniversary at her home in
Broadway. Owing toMrs. Nicholson's delicate health, there was no special demonstration inhonor ofher day.
Afew familiar friends called during theafternoon and greeted herwhere shesat surrounded byloving
messages in the shape offlowers, gifts, and congratulatory notes. Mrs. Nicholson is a woman ofunusual
dainty and sweet personality.
Agift highly prized was a solid silver loving cup sent by the Indianapolis Woman's Club. Mrs. Nicholson was
a founder and charter member of this literary club, and has kepther interest in its members and programs. The
cup is plain um-shaped with three handles. At the base isengraved on one side the date 1806, on the other
1906, midway between on one side theclub monogram, opposite the name Jane Nicholson. The College
Comer Club is anotherin which Mrs. Nicholson has takena deepinterest, and clubmeetings havefrequently
been held at herhome, that she might enjoy thepapers. The Parlor Club holds aninterest as herdaughter, Miss
Elizabeth Nicholson wasfounder, and was president for many years. These club members delight to honor
Mrs. Nicholson.
Journey to Ohio Wilderness
Mrs. Nicholson's maiden name wasJane Finley Wales. Sheis the daughter of Isaac andRuth Welch Wales,
andwas bom inNorth Carolina Feb. 1, 1806. Adescendant of generations of Quakers, she was earlytaught to
"test all things by the Inward Light, and tolisten for the voice of conscience". She was the second child in a
family offive, four girls and one boy. When she was eight years old, her maternal grandfather, Samuel Welch
decided that he must remove his large family of twelve children from a slave state to a free state. Isaac Wales

had just completed anew house and planted afine orchard and disliked leaving his beautiful farm for an Ohio
wilderness, but his wife's extremely tender love for her father Samuel Welch turned the scale, and Isaac Wales
sold his farm at a great sacrifice.
They joined the Welch Colony. This was long before the day of carriages, but the grandfather and
grandmoAer rode in asmall two wheeled vehicle called agig, and regarded as luxurious compared with the
^eat white covered wagons drawn by four horses which conveyed the other families. The memory of this
journey from Carolina to Ohio is still vivid in Mrs. Nicholson's mind-the bells on the horses, the finding of
chestnuts on the way up Ae Blue Ridge Mountains, the wild beauty ofthe scenery. Her word pictures ofthis
trip have charmed her children and grandchildren for many an hour.
Samuel Welch settled in the Miami Valley in southern Ohio. He had bought 1,200 acres ofexceedingly rich
but heavily timbered land-enough for each child to have afarm. Here Isaac Wales began the heavy task of
clearing the land. Sometime his little daughter sawthe deer come out ofthe thick woods to asalt spring where
they drank. The Shawnee Indians had just left that part of Ohio and there were traces of their wigwams.
Quakers' Payment of "Muster Fine"
The second year sawaclearing sufficiently laige to raise afew bushels oflye. The children looked forward
anxiously to white bread, Mrs. Nicholson remembers seeing her mother help winnowthe lye which was then
put away until itcould be taken to adistant mill to be ground. In the mean time an Officer from the Ohio State
Militia came to collect the "muster fine". The Quakers protested against war and neither would drill for nor
countenance for so they were fined. These Officers took what they chose and made their own valuation. In this
case for afine ofperhaps $2.50, they took the whole crop ofrye leaving not agrain. The little children were
bitterly disappointed to see all the crop go but they heard no complaint from either father or mother. Itwas a
matter ofconscience and they believed it right tosuffer inthe good cause.
In 1830 Jane Finley Wales was married to Valentine Nicholson, since deceased, adescendant of early English
Quakers. Ayounger sister Nancy was married at the same time to Thomas Butterworth. The ceremony was
that ofthe Friends Church and the meeting house was ofhewn logs in the thick woods. Often in the past as
these sisters sat through the silent meetings they he^d the rare sweet note ofthe hermit thrush. In this house
Elias Hicks had on^ preached. His earnest conviction and his impassioned words had earlier divided the
Society ofFriends into Hicksites and Orthodox. The four young people in this double wedding were Hicksites.
"Underground Railway" work
Very early in their married life Mr. And Mrs. Nicholson were enlisted in the anti-slavery work. Their home
was one of achain ofhospitable homes stretching from the Ohio River tothelakes-stations on the
"underground railway" who's trains were mainly made up by the faithful Quakers. Anights ride from
Cincinnati it was afrequent occurance for Mrs. Nicholson's children to be awakened by the midnight arrival
of acarnage load of fugitive slaves. In addition to her own family cares Mrs. Nicholson must provide for these
fnghtened and always hungry men and women. Perhaps they must be concealed for atime from the zealous
executors ofthe fugitive slave law.
At this time the Anti-Slavery Society decided to hold one hundred conventions in the West. In the district
embracing southern Ohio, Mrs. Nicholson's home became Ihe headquarters for the noted anti-slavery lectures.
Mrs. Nicholson has given much study to slavery in all its aspects, reading every book and pamphlet
obtainable.
During her entire life there has not been one worthy reform without Mrs. Nicholson's sympathy and support.
This often meant to her husband and herself sacrifice and denial quite incomprehensible to the young or even

middle aged people of today.
Perhaps Mrs. Nicholson's Quaker heritage made her deeply sympathetic with the very earliest movement for
the rights of women. Homekeeping andhome loving, shewas ever ready to givethe support of her name and
influence to every movement for the welfare of humanity.
The years have taken from hercountless oldfriends and almost all hermany near relatives. Only twelve first
cousins remain and the sister who's wedding day washer own, Mrs. Butterworth, wasunable to takethelong
journey toobserve the century anniversary. Mrs. Butterworth at ninety-six still writes long and interesting
letters and enjoys life.
Sevenchildrenwere bom to Mr. AndMrs. Nicholson. Threeare livingin daily communication with Mrs.

Old Anti-Slavery Friends
Ofthose associated with her inheranti-slavery work only two remain. Extracts are given from two birthday
letters.
Boston, Mass. Jan. 30, 1906
Dear Mrs. Nicholson,
Intwo days you will have reached your centennial birthday. Let mecongratulate you and your daughters that
youhave lived solongandwell. When I knew youboth more than fifty years ago, I canhardly believe that I
amnearly eighty-one and that you will have passed your one-hundredthmilestone when this letter reaches
you.
The world has grown older and I hope better than it waswhen wewere fighting for free soil and free speech in
Ohio1850. Slavery is no longer an established institution. Thepeople havelargely outgrown their beliefin
avenging Godandan eternal hell andthat our work for humanity draws to a close. Younger hands andhearts
will take up and carry onthe reforms which still remain to befurthered. I am glad you have fought a good
fight andthat your daughters stand beside you . With warmest regards inwhich my dear wifeLucy Stone
wouldjoin if she were still with me, andwith kind regards of my daughter Alicebelieve me dear Mrs.
Nicholson ever your friend.
Henry Blackwell
Frank Sanbom of Concord write,
Andtoyour dearmother on her hundredth birthday saythat she haslived to seegreater changes in some ways
than we ever could have expected, even a half century ago. I hope the word is better than it was then. I know it
is better sofar as your mother and herfamily had the power to make it so. Each century and every generation
has its ownevils andits own blessings. We have done what we could, andperhaps we could have done more
if weall had been bomNorth Carolina Quakers. They seem to have accomplished more than the rest of us.

birthday letters.
Boston, Mass. Jan. 30, 1906
Dear Mrs. Nicholson,
Intwo days youwill have reached your centennial birthday. Letmecongratulate youandyourdaughters
that you have lived solong and well. When I knewyou both more than fifty years ago, I can hardly
believe that I amnearly eighty-one andthat youwill have passed yourone-hundredth milestone when
this letter reaches you.
The world hasgrown older andI hope better than it was when wewere fighting for free soil andfiree
speech inOhio 1850. Slavery is nolonger anestablished institution. The people have largely outgrown
theirbeliefinavenging God andanetemalhellandthat ourworkfor humanity draws to a close.
Yoimger hands and hearts will take upandcarry onthereforms which still remain to befurthered. I am
glad you have fought a good fight and that your daughters stand beside you. With warmest regards in
which my dear wife Lucy Stone would joinif shewere still with me, andwith kind regards of my
daughter Alice believe medearMrs. Nicholson everyourfiiend.
Henry Blackwell
Frank Sanbom of Concord write.
And toyour dear mother onherhundredth birthday say that she has lived to seegreater changes in some
ways than we ever could have expected, even a halfcentury ago. I hope the word isbetter than it was
then. I knowit is betterso far as your motherandher family hadthe powerto makeit so. Eachcentury
and every generation has itsown evils and itsownblessings. We have done what we could, and perhaps
we could have done more ifwe all had been bom North Carolina Quakers. They seem to have
accomplished more than the rest of us.

"THE LIBERATOR"
Abram Allen, noted Clinton County Ohio anti-slavery advocate and Underground Railroad
developer-operator, transported hundreds of runaway slaves to Washington, B.C. and
freedom in his covered wagon, "The Liberator:.
Allen, who lived near Oakland, Ohio in 1850 built this replica of "The Liberator"
for his friend and Harveysburg, Ohio's noted Underground Railroad conductor, Valentine
Nicholson. The original paint was restored and "The Steele Bros." added in 1918 by
Nicholson's daughter who gave the miniature wagon to her grandsons, the Steele brothers.
Nicholson's great-grandson, Theodore Steele of Indianapolis, Indiana, donated the wagon
to Mary L. Cook Public Library's Ohioana Room in 1985.
Abram Allen was a wagonmaker and inventor who developed a cyclometer for the "Liberator"
to measure the distances to and from freedom for his escaping slave cargo. He was also
a fine weaver. He built a fly-shuttle so he could x^reave coverlets full width and also
designed his own coverlet patterns.
For more information on Abram Allen, Valentine Nicholson and "The Liberator as well as
the Underground Railroad in this area, please see the files and records in our Ohioana
Room.
PLEASE TREAT THIS WAGON WITH THE RESPECT IT DESERVES. IT IS ARARE RELIC AND AUNIciUE
ARTIFACT OF OUR ANTIQUE HERITAGE.

^rs. Jane F. Nicholson
Closes a Long Life.:
In Failingr Health Since
Century Mark.
Passing.c
fProm The Indianapolis News, of Sept. 10.J ,
Mrs. Jane Finley Nicholson's long
and nsefnl life came to an end yes
terday afternoon about i o'clock.
Nicholson had been in failing,
bealth and nnable to see her friehdsl
I
eince the celebration of her one hu:.- ^
dreth birthday, February 1. Th6^^'
who saw her then recall the cheer-,
fulness and strength of spirit with <
which she entertained the friends,
gathered about her with remin' ' *-'-*^"
c<w of the historic movemef t'
crises in which she had taaen .ctive
part.
Mrs. Nicholson was born in Iredell
ciiunty. North Carolina, in Febru
ary, 1806, of Quaker parentage. At^
the age of eight, her parents moveda
t<> Warren county, Ohio, where she's
livtid until she came to Indianapo-^i
lis.in 1866. Her mother was from^
Campbell county, Virginia, and her,s
ancestors in the Old Dominion date s
from a remote period. Mrs. Nichol- :
son's father, Isaac Wales, was of n
j' Scotch-Irish parentage. ^
I Mrs. Nicholson is survived by''
i daughters, Misses Elizabeth
' ti(nd Mary Nicholson, Martha Nich-
; ulson HcEZay; two graud-daughters ,
Mary L. McKay and Helen McKay >
Steels, and two great' grandsons,'
HoraceMcE[ay and Theodore Steele.'
Active to the Last. '
I
Mrs. Nicholson's interest in the >
"nfe tuid thought was active until
within a few weeks of her death. As .
'She sat knitting by her fireside she '
weioomed with' the ^dor of the
t^holari)e'w8 of the latest scientific
developements and fresh thoughts
from the best books always on her
table. Her household was a center
where questions of human progress
and intellectnal.and spiritual en
lightenment found ample discus
sion. The three great causes-peace,
freedom of slaves and rights of
women-advocated by all liberal
Quakers, found in her a warm sup-
jiorter.
bhe had for her intimate fnends
those who were foremost in the
great philanthropic movements in
jthis country in the last century.
Her life presented a rare conibina-
tion of activity and contemplation.
Her serenity always caused her^ '
friends to panse and listen to the '
promptings of the-spirit. One friend
said of her: "Her life was all the
beatitudes in one."
Funeral Services.
A service for the relatives and a
few inUmate friends of Mrs. Jano:
Nicholson, who died Sunday, was!
held at her late home, yesterday/
afternoon, at 4 o'clock, The.' Rev;,
Frank Wioice, of All Souls' Unitar l
ian church, cuuducted the services. \
The hymns of Whittier and Long
fellow were snug by Mrs. Thomas
G. Whallon. Miss Edith Brown
played the "Largo" of Handel and
a lullaby on the violin. ]
As particularly portraying .
life and character the following
poems were read:
Our Mother.
"Broken and worn" for years wa^

Dropping from strength, from thua^

And scarcely conld we know , , ?

ije last yeara of hia life. In speaking of the number of years
kg had Hyed there and the attachments formed, he said, " Yes,
jt has been long, but I am more than willing to leave it all."
One son, two daughters and a step-daughter had the privilege
inio'9^""g to him during those days when he was slowly
slipping awa-y.
j{e was kind and unassuming in manner, and his sterling
irortb ^ya3 recognized by his many friends. In the going out
jjis undemonstrative life we realize how much he will be
pjificd, but are cheered by the thought, There is rest for the
^ildren of God."

A Friend in New York sends us the following extract from
a letter from John Asluvorth. of Manchester, England, who
so acceptably with us at the General Conference at Moun
tain Lake Park:'
"On the eve of leaving for the old country, I write to ex
press my appreciation of the kindness of all Friends, and trust
a greater chiscness will yet bo brought about amongst Friends
of all sections, both in Canada and England, with those in

Bolrnes. of Swarthmore. Pa., both of which were dulv appre-
<'ated. On Fifth day, the 14th, a morning and evening meet-

Asubscriber who lives in Chicago writes us: "I send The
^Telltgexceb to ray mother, who lives at Salem, la., and is
^early 80 years old. She was brought up in the Orthodox
J ancb of Friends' Society. In a recent letter she expressed
8r Very deep interest in reading the paper, and her hope that
the time may come when all branches who really believe in the
' guidance of the Inner Light' may be brought onto a working
platform broad enough for all."
A Friend in Fresno, Cal., thus describes the religious unity
existing in that city: "All the English-speaking Protestant
ministers except the Episcopalian and one Japanese have united
and organized themselves as a ministers' council, and work
together as one man in promoting morality and religion, and
for the suppression of vice and intemperance. They are sus
tained by the press in their work. During the hot weather
the congregations and others meet in the Court House Park,
which occupies four squares in the heart of the city. The
city supplies benches and speakers* stands. They appoint one
of their number to preach every First-day evening from 6.30
to 8 o'clock, and they have very large audiences. The minis
ters are very earnest and advanced in their religious views, and
hold Quakerism in high estimation. They have invited me to
attend their ministerial meetings."

SWARTI-niORE COLLEGE NOTES.
" Swarthmore is a growing College." The tmth of this state
ment has been amply demonstrated to all Avho have watched
the opening week of the new term. Not only is the freshman
class the largest in the history of the college, but the new
faces among the faculty, and the two new buildings in process
of erection give .substantial signs of progress. The dormi
tories are filled to the limit of their capacity and about a
dozen students have been forced to seek temporary lodgings
in the village.
On Si.xth-day evening, the twenty-eighth. President Swain
and Airs. Swain will give a formal reception in Somerville
Hall to the students to meet Dean Aleeteer and Dr. and Airs.
Afiller. It has. however, not taken us this long to become
acquainted with our new instinictors and advisors, and the
sentiment seems to be universal among the student body that
the managers have been most fortunate in tbo filling of the
vacancies left by Dean Bond and Professor Cunningham.
On First-day Dr. Holmes announced that his Bible class this
year -will take up the study of the " Twentieth Century
Religion." All students are cordially invited.
On last Sixth-day evening, the twenty-first, President Swain
called together one of what are popularly known among the
students as " Prexie's meeting." These consist of informal
conferences between the young men and the president, in
which all matters of interest between them are brought up
and discussed. Tlie rules restricting smoking, and the system
of student government wore explained to the now men. The
question of instituting a strict honor system in examinations
was introduced and brought forth much discussion. The plan
proposed is similar to the one in operation at Princeton
University, under which, cheating of any sort in examinations
is dealt with by immediate expulsion from college. Each
student is bound on his honor to report any case he may
observe, to a student tribunal, which passes judgment and
sentence on the njatter. The sjibject was finally left for
sjja's

IT MADE ME VERY DETERMINED THAT IF I GAVE MY CHILDREN NOTHING
FUSE THEY SHOULD HAVE AN EDUCATION.
When I was 20 my attention was called to the crime of suvery.
Then many slaves were helped to freedom by Abraham Allen^ Dr. and
Edward Brooks of Oakland^ 0. (5 mi. fr. Wilmington). My friends
were denouncing these men as SLAVE-STEALERSv and I NOT KNOWING ANY
letter joined in> thinking, them wrong and I said so to mother.
Mother said> "Esther thee does not know the crime of slavery &ought
NOT JUDGE THESE MEN." FrOM THAT TIME I WAS DRIVEN & INVESTIGATE
& READ, THAT I MIGHT KNOW MORE ABOUT SLAVERY.
Thomas Hibbon of Wilmington, 0. was a strong anti-slavery man,
SO I WOULD GO TO MID-WEEK QUAKER MEETING, THEN GO THRU TOWN TO GET
r
ALL I COULD READ FROM WEEK TO WEEK. "Jay'S InQUIRY"? CONVERTED ME
COMPLETELY TO BE ONE OF THE ANTI-SLAVERY &TO HEAR ALL 1 COULD &
TO HELP ON THE UNDER-GROUND RaIL-ROAD,, AS IT WAS TERMED THENj THIS
LED TO THE ACQUAINTANCE OF MEN & WOMEN LONGER IN THE WORK FOR
HUMANITY, I BECAME INTERESTED IN WoMAN'S RiGHTS,, DIETETIC REFORM^
THE CRUELTY &WRONG OF KILLING ANIMALS TO SATISFY OUR APPETITE AND
THE RIGHT OF THE MATTER.
The Friends were noted for the good table they could set. Our
I'ABLE HAD ROAST CHICKEN &ALL THAT GOES WITH IT. AYOUNG MAN COMING
TO DINE WITH US REFUSED THE ANIMAL PART OF THE MEAL AND WE WANTED
HIS REASONS FOR IT. He HAD LECTURED ON DIET^REFORM> AND HIS TALK
TOOK HOLD OF US, THO' NONE OF US. STOPPED EATING MEAT AT ONCE. HiS
REASONS FOR A VEGETABLE DIET WERE SO CLEAR &REASONABLE THAT TIME
BROUGHT US MORE &MORE TO THINK HE WAS RIGHT. FaTHER WAS AGOOD
PROVIDER &RAISED HIS OWN HOGS &BEEVES. He WAS IN THE HABIT OF
FATTING TEN YOUNG HOGS THAT WOULD WEIGH ABOUT 200 LBS. EACH, &
KILLING ONE BEEF FOR HIS FAMILY. ThIS YEAR MY SISTER LyDIA EmILY,

brother David and I rid guts &tried out the lard^ while brother
7
0^. READ FROM Dr. GrAHAM's WORK^ ON THE UNWISDOM OF MEAT EATING.
He CALLED MEAT CARRION^ AND OTHER NAMES DISGUSTING TO THE THO'T
OF EATING MEAT^ SO FROM THAT DAY TO THIS I HAVE NOT TASTED MEAT.
Once after an illness 1 tho't it would taste good. Sister Susan
said; "This desire will pass if you wait." and it did.
When I met John 0. Wattles^ heard him on dietetic reform^ on
^Ioman's Rights and temperance as well as slavery I thot him a
great as well as a good man. Then came this terrible fever in our
family^ & HE WAS SO GOOD & SO HELPFUL WE FELT WE COULD &DID LOVE
E/CH OTHERv BUT WERE IN NO HASTE TO BE MARRIED. In MaY 1844 THE
TIME SEEMED RIPE FOR THE FULFILLMENT OF OUR DREAM. FiVE YEARS
LATER OUR FIRST BABY CAME. JoHN HAD BEEN 12 YEARS WITHOUT EATING
MEAT I SEVEN. So OUR CHILDREN WERE BORN WITH NO WISH FOR MEAT.
As CHILDREN THEY NEVER ASKED FOR IT. We DID NOT SAY "YOU MUST NOT
EAT meat/' but told THEM WHY IT WAS NOT GOOD FOR ANY OF US. SOME
DOCTORS IN LATER YEARS THOT THE GIRLS WOULD BE STRONGER IF THEY
ATE MEATy BUT ALL GAVE IT UP AFTER ATRIAL. NOT ONE LIKED IT OR
COULD TAKE IT EXCEPT AS A MEDICINE.
The children were given milk and cream^ but never butter. I
ONCE LEFT THE TWO OLDER GIRLS AT Dr. WeLCH'S FOR THE DAY^ WHILE
WE WENT TO Lafayette [Indiana] to do some trading. Mother Welch
BUTTERED THE TOAST &PUT IT ON THEIR PLATES. CeLESTIA WAS BOUT 5
yrs. old. She looked at her toast &then her sister's^ took both

town hall and academy in Harveysburg, Ohio. ValentineNicholson married Jane Wales and they
producedthree daughters, Elizabeth, MaryEllenandMartha Nicholson McKay, wife ofHorace McKay.
The Nicholsons also experimented in communalism with their establishment of "Prairie Home," a farm
near Urbana, Ohio that attracted "inmates" fromEurope, the east coast, and the middlewest. Nicholson
was also interested in "Spiritualism" and was involved in seances. Nicholson later lived in Wayne and
Marion counties in Indiana and died in his home on Broadway in Indianapolis.
