The first settlement in Clark County
was at present
Arkadelphia, along the Caddo, and south of the Caddo and west of Arkadelphia
in vicinity of Okolona.
Hignight was an early settler. "The
latter was a great hunter, and probably killed more buffalo than any other
settler. Near Mr. Hignight's place was a 'buffalo lick,' which those
animals frequently visited, and there fell prey to Hignight...and other early
settlers."
Hignight's place was located on the
road to Washington, Arkansas.
