      PHILIP ARNOLD

      Philip Arnold was born in Le-high County, Pa. He removed to Plain town-
 ship in 1812, and settled upon what was known as the Gillis farm. Ater his arrival
 he purchased 320 acres of land from the Eagles, who had entered it. He had eleven
 children. For months they had no bread in the house, and were compelled to live
 on venison, honey and potatoes. His son, Thomas Arnold, a native of the same
 county, was born in 1802, and came West with his father. He was married in his
 twenty-fifth year to Sarah Hines. He cast his first vote in what was called "Blue
 school-house."
