" . . . In 1764, a year after peace was formally established, following Pontiac's uprising, a white man named John Friend walked up the mountains from the Potomac River on the trail of a fur trader which followed a buffalo trace. He crossed the crest of the Alleghenies, then descended to the sole Indian village of the area of the Youghiogheny. Here he bought land. He traded an iron pot for several cornfields and a few rough dwellings. Then he returned to the Potomac. A year later he came back. He settled on the land . . ." --Garret County, a History of Maryland's Tableland by Stephen Schlosnagle
