Historical and biographical sketch of Cherry Creek, Chautauqua County, New York : with views of business places and residences, together with sketches of prominent citizens of various professions and occupations, past and present . rs ago a cherry tree Beside a small stream tried tis said to rear its head Oer others in tlie grove:And when this tree oertopped them all Surveyors chopped it do \vnAnd in its place a stake was set— The center oi a town. The tree, the stream that near by ran, The name suggested early named and still is famed Therefore, as Cherry Creek;And like the tree that upward grew (But to the town gave place,)The little village soon took root And thenceforth grew apace. The hills, the vales, the rills, the dells. That near this spot are pastures green on hillsides seen, The well-tilled fields this a garden of the gods— A garden of the blessed,A place where labor means but Joy, .And idleness is rest. .ind Enterprise within this town Has builded her cot and hall, grange and homes all Are orderly and place, it IS, to catch the eyes Of those whose fancies roam;And to be envied he who claims In Cherry Creek a home. .\rthnr J.
