Fort Worth
A RESOLUTION
Commemorating the 150th Anniversary of
Fort Worth's Founding
WHEREAS, on June 6, 1849 Major Ripley Arnold led the U.S. Army's
Co. F, 2nd Dragoons to the confluence of the Trinity River's West and
Clear Forks where he established an outpost to protect settlers to the
east from Indian raids and named it "Fort Worth" in honor of the
commanding Major General Williams Jenkins Worth; and
WHEREAS, following the September 1853 fort's closure, settlers built a
community through the efforts of scores of citizens such as John Peter
Smith, Amon Carter, John Justin, and others which has allowed Fort
Worth to grow into America's 25th largest city which uniquely blends its
western heritage with culture to produce an excellent quality of life for
its citizens; and
WHEREAS, Fort Worth has seized the opportunity time and again to
prosper and grow, first by becoming the last Texas stop for cattle
drives on the way to Kansas railheads and later by literally rolling up
its sleeves to help build the first railroad into the town, by attracting
military installations that provided jobs, by taking advantage of a West
Texas oil boom as an oil industry center, by partnering to build the
outstanding Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and finally by
aggressively attracting diversified industries with excellent jobs at
which the citizens can work; and
WHEREAS, Fort Worth has used its diversity to build partnerships to
address the challenge at hand, whether the challenge is bringing a new
company to town or to address a need among less fortunate citizens;
and
WHEREAS, on June 6, 1999, the City of Fort Worth celebrated the 150th
year of its founding and subsequent growth; and
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF FORT WORTH, TEXAS that the community of Fort Worth
recognizes and salutes the contributions that Major Ripley Arnold and
all subsequent citizens made that have enabled Fort Worth to become
one of America's best cities; and
FURTHER, BE IT RESOLVED that each neighborhood, church, civic
organization, business and every citizen is encouraged to celebrate
sometime during 1999 their unique place in Fort Worth history as a
means to honor the past and to the imagine the future.
