When Father Marquette, first white to float down the Mississippi, passed this site In 1613, he wrote in his records that on the stone bluffs he saw pictures of strange monsters painted. Among them was the Piasa Pie-a- saw. He described it as a wlerd winged creature, human- headed, with the horns of a deer, teeth of a tiger, claws of an eagle, body of a giant lizard, and tall of a snake with a prong on the end.

Some years ago the Piasa Bird was quarried away. Lately it has been restored on a cliff a hundred feet or so from its original abode, by Boy Alton's first settler was Jean Baptiste Cardinal, who built for himself a loose rock house in 1783. He was carried away by the Indians. Col. Rufus Easton platted the town in 1817 and named it for a son.

The city early became an educational center, ShurtteH College, claimed to be the oldest existing institution of learning in the Mississippi valley, being founded in 1827. Monticello Seminary followed in 1835; Ursuline Academy in 1859. Burled on a hill above the business district of the city lies Elijah P. Lovejoy, Abolitionist, editor, murdered by a mob In 1837, He is the great, outstanding martyr of the war against slavery. Some say his death convulsed the nation in the wave of feeling that brought on the Civil War.

years later, E. H. Goulding Sons Co. established In business progressing with Alton throughout 11 the years. Today this fine old Institution stands as a land- celebrating 80 years of Jewelry Leadership.
