As It Were: John Brickell was captured by Natives, but kept many of their ways in freedom
Ed Lentz
Guest Columnist
Captured by Native Americans when he was young, John Brickell never forgot where he came from.
When he returned to that world, he never forgot where he had been. The trail Brickell followed was a long one that ended in what would one day be Ohio’s capital city.
In 1842, Brickell told the story of his life and adventures to the American Pioneer magazine. He still was quite eloquent and told a good story in simple terms. What often was overlooked was what happened after he left Native America behind.
Nelsonville senior firefighter, Jeff Armes, collapsed and died at the scene of a structure fire Sunday, the Nelsonville Division of Fire announced in a social media statement.
At approximately 5:04 pm, the Nelsonville Division of Fire was alerted for a structure fire on Pleasantview Avenue, the division noted in a social media post. While on scene and actively fighting a fire, Armes reportedly collapsed. Fellow firefighters and EMS administered CPR and advanced life support care. Armes was transported by Athens County EMS to OhioHealth OâBleness Hospital in Athens where he was pronounced dead, the divisionâs statement said. Nelsonville Fire Chief Harry Barber informed the department of the line of duty death.
