We may imagine the scene, in a small room in a log house near the"lower ferry," at Front and Vine
streets, with a jury particularly intelligent – an excellent set of county officers, and such a bar as
Ross, Kittera, Chambers, Hubley, James Biddle, Hanna, Andrew Dunlop, Reily, Collinson Reed,
Jasper Yeates, John Joseph Henry, Thomas Duncan and Thomas Smith, most of whom rose to
occupy the highest positions at the bar or in the Senate – quite a show of famous men to start the
judicial engine of the new county, with the net result of convicting William Courtenay, a descendant
of one of the proudest houses of England, and sentencing him to eighteen lashes, fifteen shillings
fine, and "to stand in the pillory." This instrument of judicial vengeance stood about sixty yards
below the grave of John Harris, the elder, or just above the ferry house, at the junction of Front and
Paxtang streets. This, doubtless, was the exact position, as two or three of the first courts were held
in a building on what is now the southern corner of Front street and Washington avenue. There was
no citizen of Harrisburg on the first jury, except, perhaps, Alexander Berryhill, but that is not certain.
Col. James Cowden, of Lower Paxtang township, was the foreman of this grand jury.
The sheriff of Lancaster county exercised the same office in Dauphin county. The names of the
jurymen were James Cowden (foreman), Robert Montgomery, John Gilchrist, Barefoot Brunson,
John Clarke, Roan McClure, John Carson, John Wilson, William Crain, Archibald McAllister, Richard
Dixon, John Parthemore, James Crouch, Jacob Awl, William Brown, Andrew Stewart, James Rogers,
Samuel Stewart, John Cooper, Alexander Berryhill. Alexander Graydon was the first prothonotary
and Anthony Kelker the first sheriff.
