Caddie Woodlawn - Chapter 8 Summary & Analysis
Summary
One evening soon after Caddie’s clock repair, the
family gathers together one evening, as usual, this time telling stories of
earlier adventures as they crack butternuts. All that storytelling reminds
Caddie of the breeches and clogs she had found: what was their story? Father
and mother decide to tell the story.
John Woodlawn was born in England, the son of the
second son of an English Lord. John’s father, Thomas, married the seamstress —
a shoemaker’s daughter instead of the child of a noble family. That did not fit
with the Lord’s plans, so he disowned his son, Thomas, John’s dad. Thomas went
from living in a large estate with peacocks prancing about, to roaming from
town to town, painting murals for inns and taverns in exchange for room and
board. The change proved too abrupt, and Thomas died when his son...

If you read your Caddie Woodlawn carefully (Chpt
8), you will see that
Thomas D. Woodhouse and Mary Vipond first married
secretly. I don't know
what this means, but perhaps they got a friendly
minister to do it in the
dead of night and no paperwork was filed. They may
have done this
precisely because they didn't want to live in sin.
They must have had John
V. after they were secretly married. The official
marriage comes just
months before Thomas D. dies. I think that perhaps
he was ill and knew he
was going to die and decided to have an official
marriage, perhaps so his
son would be legitimate.
I view the late marriage date and further
confirmation that we are on the
right track and that there is some truth to the
Caddie Woodlawn story.

WOODHOUSE, J.V.
Osage Township - J.V.
Woodhouse, superintendent of the Rich Hill Smelting Works, was born in England,
January 10, 1826. During the time of his residence in his native country, he
was employed in a carpet factory, but when he was less than fourteen years of age,
he immigrated to America, locating in Sullivan County, New York. After one year,
he went to the city of Boston, and worked in a carpet factory there until he
attained the age of twenty-three years. While thus employed he put up the first
machinery in that city for manufacturing tapestry carpets. When he was twenty-three,
he left Boston with two steam engines for the Chippewa Valley, Wisconsin, where
he was engaged in the lumber business, for seven years. Going to St. Louis, he
fitted up the old Southern Hotel of that city, put in the heating apparatus for
the Insane Asylum, afterwards worked in the machine shops of Girard B. Allen,
and for some time was superintendent for the St. Louis Bridge Company. In 1870,
he went to Mine La Motte, Missouri, where he built the crushing and dressing
works for a lead smelting company, and during this period obtained a patent for
smelting which is now used in all mining districts. In 1877, he moved to
Illinois, locating near Bunker Hill, where he had purchased a farm. Becoming
dissatisfied with the life of an agriculturist, he remained but six months,
then settling at Oronogo, Missouri, where he placed in position the pumping
machinery for the lead and zinc mines. He built the smelting works for the lead
company, at Webb City, Missouri, then erected the Pitcher Lead and Zinc
Smelting Works at Joplin, and has been superintendent for the same company
since completing the Rich Hill Smelting Works, of which a more extended notice
is given in the history of this city. While in Boston, Mr. Woodhouse was
married to Miss Harriet J. White, September 8, 1847; by this union they have
ten children, eight of whom are now living: Thomas D., Warren, Joseph, Frank,
George, Caddie, Henrietta, and Minnie. Mr. Woodhouse is a member of the
I.O.O.F. order. (History of Bates County, Missouri, 1883)

Joseph Crawshaw
JOSEPH CRAWSHAW, the senior
partner in the well-known carpet house of J. Crawshaw & Son, was born in
England, June 16, 1816. His ancestors for some generations were carpet
manufacturers, and Joseph, the subject of this memoir, was raised to the
business in all its branches, and, as a consequence, may be said to bring to
this particular branch of trade more experience and practical knowledge than
any other man in St. Louis. His early educational advantages were moderate, but
sufficient to insure success in the path in life he was destined to travel.
At the age of eighteen, he
came to America, like thousands of other enterprising and energetic Englishmen,
who are to be found occupying prominent positions in the great commercial
centres of the Western World, to better his fortunes and find a more extended
field for the exercise of his industry. He found employment in New Haven,
Connecticut, for a few months as a carpet weaver, and from 1834 to 1838 he was
occupied in Lowell, Massachusetts, as a weaver of ingrain and Brussels carpets.
In the fall of 1838 he
returned to England, and entered the employ of Hinshall, Nephew & Co., and
while thus engaged invented the tapestry Brussels carpet. He was not aware of
the value or importance of his invention, and the patent was issued to his
employers, who doubtless reaped a rich harvest from the work of their employee.
In December 1841, he resolved
to retrace his steps and return to America, which he accordingly did the
following March. Arriving in New York, he accidentally got into conversation
with a gentleman at the door of a carpet store on Pearl street, which ended in
his being employed as foreman in the factory of Henry Winfield & Co., with
whom he remained for one year. He worked in the same capacity in Tariffville,
Connecticut, when, in 1843, he was one of a company that started a carpet
manufactory in Roxbury, Massachusetts, he himself being foreman, superintendent
and part owner for thirteen years. While in Roxbury, in 1849, he was elected to
the City Council on the Whig
-- 736 --
ticket, and from a Democratic
ward, such was his personal popularity.
The change in the tariff of
1845-'46 stopped nearly all carpet manufacturing in the United States, and Mr.
Crawshaw accepted the position of manager of the wholesale department in the
carpet house of Houghton, Sawyer & Co., of Boston, Massachusetts, and where
he remained until 1858.
An ill-advised generosity and endorsements
for friends had swept away a fortune, which during these years he had managed
to accumulate, when in 1858 he came to St. Louis and worked for E. P. Pettes
& Co.; then with the house of Pettes & Leathe. After the lapse of two
years, he bought out the gas-fitting department of this establishment, and
started business for himself under the name of J. Crawshaw & Son.
In 1871, he combined with
gas-fixings the goods he knew so well, taking in carpets and carrying a large
stock, with well-merited success. In his strict attention to his business, he
has well earned the large and constantly increasing trade which to-day crowns
his efforts. As a man of business integrity, he stands high in this community.
Generous and social by nature, his private life is blessed with friends who
entertain a high regard for his moral purity and other estimable qualities.
Honest and upright even to a fault, he bears an unspotted reputation and
unblemished name in all the relations of public or domestic life.
