September 1845 CE

The Delaware County Sheriff and a deputized posse of one hundred and fifty men turn the county upside down in their search for Anti-Renters suspected in Steele's murder.

Governor Silas Wright declares Delaware County in a state of rebellion and calls in three hundred troops of the state militia.

Two new log-jails are built in Delhi to hold all the Anti-Renters that have been arrested.
