This bright, busy, thriving place, is a curiosity from the fact, that
the Cattaraugus creek, (a river it should be called) splits in exactly,
or nearly so, in two parts, the one being in ERIE, the other
in CATTARAUGUS. Efforts to get a new county, and a county
seat, have heretofore been made. These conflict with similar efforts,
to have a county seat located at Irving, at the mouth of the creek.
