    years William Smith, of Yorkshire,came to dispute with him the honors and
    hardships of pioneer life. He bought 100 acres of Mr. Chapman and
    afterward patented several hundred acres adjoining, extending to Newtown
    and the Neshaminy. His dwelling stood near where Charles Reeder lived. He
