Of all the advocates who practiced at the bar of the\\nold county of Strafford, Ichabod Bartlett of Portsmouth is the\\nonly one remembered who equaled him in skill with witnesses,\\nor possessed that wit and humor, burning indignation, and touch-\\ning pathos which were often brought out in his appeals to the\\njury. His practice rapidly extended outside his own county into\\nBelknap, Carroll, and Rockingham. In 1S34 Mr. Hale was ap-\\npointed United States District Attorney by General Jackson, and\\nwas re-appointed by President Van Buren.\\nIn all his ideas Mr. Hale was democratic, and jealous of every\\nencroachment upon popular rights.

The debate that fol-\\nlowed was fierce and exciting, many senators participating. Mr.\\nHale said he thought the President felt pretty sure he had made\\nthe administration ridiculous by his proclamation, and had sent a\\nlabored essay to vindicate what could not be vindicated. Hayden\\nand Scott, the leaders in the rescue, were indicted and tried, but\\nthe jury failed to agree, notwithstanding the character of the testi-\\nmony and the strong charge of the judge.

On the assembling of Congress in December,\\nan exciting debate arose on the report made by John Quincy\\nAdams, chairman of the committee on rules, which left out the\\nfamous twenty-first rule, known as the Gag rule, that had been\\nadopted in 1838 by a resolution introduced by Mr. Atherton of\\nNew Hampshire, which required that every petition, memorial,\\nresolution, proposition, or paper, touching, or relating in any way,\\nor to any extent ^vhatever, to slavery or the abolition thereof,\\nshall, on presentation, without any further action thereon, be laid\\non the table, without being debated, printed, or referred. During\\nthe debate Mr. Hale, with Hamlin of Maine, and a few other\\nDemocrats, avowed their opposition to the longer suppression of\\nthe right of petition.

Mr. Clay had lost the State of New York, and\\nwith it the election, in consequence of his hesitating position of\\nopposition to the measure, which sent enough Whig anti-slavery\\nvotes to Birney to have elected him.

President Tyler in his\\nmessage called for immediate action, and during that month several\\nschemes for annexation were submitted. In part to show the\\npro-slavery character of the movement, and to fix a western limit\\nbeyond which slavery should not go, Mr. Hale, on the 10th of\\nJanuary, moved a suspension of the rules to enable him to intro-\\nduce a proposition to divide Texas into two parts by a line be-\\nginning at a point on the Gulf of Mexico, midway between the\\nnorthern and southern boundaries, and running in a northwesterly\\ndirection. In the territory south and west of that line, it was\\nprovided that there should be neither slavery nor involuntary\\nservitude; and that the provision was to remain forever an invi-\\nolable contract. The motion had a majority of eleven, but failed\\nto receive the requisite two thirds. The necessities of the South\\nnow made it necessary to suppress all opposition to the scheme of\\nannexation.

Few men have shown\\nsuch greatness of soul and loyalty to convictions under such\\ntemptations. While most men would have yielded, Mr. Hale did\\nnot falter, but at once wrote his celebrated letter to the people of\\nNew Hampshire against the action of the Legislature in its reso-\\nlutions, in which, after setting forth the aims and purposes of\\nannexation, and the reasons given by the advocates and supporters\\nof the measure, he declared them to be eminently calculated to\\nprovoke the scorn of earth and the judgment of heaven.

Resolutions were introduced in the House of Rep-\\nresentatives, tendering their warmest sympathy with the struggling\\npatriots, and expressing the hope that down-trodden humanity\\nmay succeed in breaking down all forms of tyranny and oppres-\\nsion.

In the Senate Mr. Hale offered a resolution,\\ncopied from the laws of Maryland, providing that any property\\ndestroyed by riotous assemblages should be paid for by any town\\nor county in the district where it occurs. Mr. Calhoun was\\namazed that even the senator from ISTew Hampshire should\\nhave so little regard for the constitution of the country as to\\nintroduce such a bill as this without including in it the severest\\npenalties against the atrocious act which had occasioned this\\nexcitement, and said he would just as soon argue with a maniac\\nfrom Bedlam, as with the senator from New Hampshire on the\\nsubject. Foote of Mississippi denounced the bill as obviously\\nintended to cover and protect negro stealing.

Many of his townsmen can remember\\nthe large-hearted, good-natured boy, who was a favorite with his\\ncompanions at the village school, where he made the most of the\\nfew advantages afforded for an education. One says he was not\\na brilliant scholar; but all that he knew he knew thoroughly, and\\nhe wanted to argue with his teacher about everything that was\\ndebatable. His parents were poor, and he had to struggle for\\nthe little education he obtained. When only fourteen years old\\nhe was apprenticed to a woolen manufacturer, and worked in a\\nfactory until he was seventeen, when he went to Concord to\\nlearn the printers trade with his cousin George W. Ela, who then\\nowned and published the Statesman. Though but a boy in\\nyears, he was then a man in stature, with a mind that was broad-\\nening day by day, and a heart always warm with generous im-\\npulses. He inherited from his mother not only his large frame\\nand sound mind, but a love for the eternal principles of right,\\nand the strong will which could carry these convictions into effect.\\nHe belonged to a juvenile anti-slavery society at this time, and by\\nits earnest debates was making ready for the more serious warfare\\ninto which he entered later. The first address he ever wrote he\\ndelivered before this society at its annual meeting in the Methodist\\nChurch at Concord in the year 1839. That interest in politics\\nwhich was so strong throughout his life was shown at this early\\nage, when in 1840, with John H. George, Lewis Downing, Jr.,\\nDaniel J. Abbott, and other young men of Concord, he was active\\nin forming a Young Men s Tippecanoe Club, which was of\\nsome account in its day.

In 1844 he was chosen\\nrecording secretary of the New Hampshire Anti-Slavery Society,\\nand was also one of the executive committee and secretary of the\\nboard of managers. In December of that year he became the pub-\\nlishing agent of the Herald of Freedom, and held that position\\nuntil the paper suspended publication July 3, 1846, and the society\\nceased to exist. In later years, in speaking of his work with the\\nAbolitionists, Mr. Ela said: I owe everything to it. A man\\nnever fights for great principles without gaining more good for\\nhimself than he can give to the cause.\\nMay 10, 1845, while living in Concord, he married Mrs. Abigail\\nM.

She sympathized heartily with\\nher husband in every philanthropic work, being especially inter-\\nested in the cause of anti-slavery.\\nIn the last years of his life, while living in Washington, Mr.\\nEla was the friend of the freedmen, as he had formerly been the\\nfriend of the slaves.

When John P. Hale was dropped by the Democratic\\nparty as a candidate for Congress because of his opposition to the\\nannexation of Texas as a slave State, Mr. Ela was one of his most\\nardent supporters and it was largely due to his efforts in printing\\nand circulating votes throughout the State that the Democratic\\ncandidate nominated in place of Mr. Hale was thrice defeated at", "height": "3476", "width": "2104", "jp2-path": "historyoftownofr00mcdu_0064.jp2"}, "53": {"fulltext": "LEADING MEN SINCE THE REVOLUTION. 411\\nthe polls, and that political revolution took place in JSTew Hampshire\\nwhich resulted in sending Mr. Hale to the United States Senate\\ninstead of to the House of Representatives. Mr. Ela visited several\\nparts of the State in the interest of the movement, and when he\\nreached his old home he was made glad by finding that some of his\\ntownsmen had issued the celebrated Hale Call for a meeting,\\nand were already organized and aggressive. In his last visit to Roch-\\nester he recounted these scenes, and said it had always afforded\\nhim the greatest pleasure to remember those men of Rochester\\nwho stood up so squarely against the encroachments of the slave\\npower. Mr. Ela had printed a prospectus for a campaign paper\\nto be called The Hale-Storm, in the editorials of which Moses\\nA.

Mr. Ela became a partner in its\\npublication, and organized the combination which united with it\\nThe Granite Freeman and The Kew Hampshire Courier.\\nHe was engaged in this work when it became necessary for him\\nto return to Rochester in 1847. After this, while engaged to some\\nextent in farming, he was employed as station agent on the rail-\\nroad.\\nIn 1855 Mr. Ela was appointed State Bank Commissioner, and\\nwas one of the selectmen of Rochester in 1856.

When he learned how close the vote\\nI had been, he turned with a smile to a friend and said, It has\\nalways been so in my life; I have had just enough, and nothing\\nto spare. He received a majority of one thousand votes over\\nj Daniel Marcy, and was re-elected in 1869 over Ellery A. Hebbard\\nI by a majority of seventeen hundred. After his first election his\\nfriends from Portsmouth and adjoining towns gave him a com-\\nI plimentary banquet at the hotel in Rochester. Addresses were\\nI made by prominent men of Rockingham county, and Mr. Ela\\nI often referred to it in later years as one of the pleasantest events\\nof his life. While in Congress he served on several committees,\\nand took part in some important debates. He was an economist,\\nand his blameless life, sound judgment, and good sense made him\\nrespected by all his associates there.\\nIn January, 1872, Mr. Ela was appointed Fifth Auditor of the\\nTreasury at Washington, and held that position until the summer\\nof 1881 when, during the Star-Route trial, President Garfield re-\\nquested him to take the place of Sixth Auditor, or Auditor of\\nthe Treasury for the Post-Office Department.

His brother James at this\\ntime invited him to take his drug store at Dover, offering the\\nfirm name of his boyhood as an inducement. Here his knowledge\\nof Latin was a great help, and from this time began his distin-\\nguished business career. To the varied experience gained in the\\nseveral drug stores which he conducted, was now added that of\\na new business.

He entered upon this great work of a\\npublishing house not hastily, but first laying carefully the founda-\\ntions. His aim was not merely financial success, but with broader\\npurpose to help mankind. At the start he laid down as a prin-\\nciple from which there should be no swerving, Never to publish\\na work purely sensational, no matter lohat chances of money it has\\nin it, and to publish books that will make true, steadfast growth in right\\nliving. From this principle he has never departed. He has bent\\nthe energies of his mind to this one object, to put good whole-\\nsome literature into the hands of the people.

The family and house-\\nhold library was another practical channel of paramount import-\\nance. In the spring of 1868 Mr. Lothrop selected three men,\\nwhose judgment he deemed worthy of trust, and laid before them\\nhis plans and purposes, Rev. George T. Day, D. D., Prof. Heman\\nLincoln, D.

To establish a new publishing\\nhouse in competition with old and long-known firms, besides new\\nones ready to contest every inch of ground, required pluck and\\nenergy beyond that of most men; but Mr. Lothrop had no\\nthought of failure. He began with a courage that could face the\\nutmost, and a determination that had already won the battle. He\\nhad a remarkable instinct to discern real ability in a new writer,\\nand great enthusiasm, which proved a stimulus and encourage-\\nment to timid beginners. He had a hopeful word for every\\napplicant, and knew how to bring out the best of every one s\\ntalent.

It would be a surprise to many to read a\\nlist of authors, now noted, who brought their first manuscripts to\\nMr. Lothrop with fear and trembling.\\nThe great fire of 1872 brought him severe loss. A large quan-\\ntity of paper intended for the first edition of the sixteen $1,000\\nprize books was replaced within two weeks, when it was again\\nlost by another fire; but a third lot was procured and the printing\\nwent on with but little delay.

So, like other New Hamp-\\nshire towns, Rochester was at first almost entirely a farming\\ncommunity.

Com-\\nbining the United States census with the tax list, and taking the\\nI larger number in each case, the farm products for the year 1850\\nwere as follows; 328 horses, 2,098 neat cattle, 1,491 sheep, 586\\nhogs, 123 bushels of wheat, 303 of barley, 767 of rye, 3,086 of\\noats, 13,789 of Indian corn, 661 of beans and pease, 31,652 of\\npotatoes, 4,335 tons of hay, 2,700 pounds of hops, 49,591 of butter,\\n21,860 of cheese, 4,359 of wool, and 385 of beeswax and honey.\\nThe State report for 1876 gives 421 bushels of wheat, 330 of\\nbarlej^, 55 of rye, 776 of oats, 7,959 of Indian corn, 533 of beans\\nand pease, 44,371 of potatoes, 3,192 tons of hay, 13,581 pounds", "height": "3412", "width": "2054", "jp2-path": "historyoftownofr00mcdu_0137.jp2"}, "116": {"fulltext": "464\\nROCHESTER.\\nof butter, and 161,092 quarts of milk.

These figures\\nevidently suggest the gradual decay of the farming interest. The\\nbleak hill-sides and stony soil of New England cannot successfully\\ncompete with the fertile prairies of the West. The increasing\\nnumber of horses and the diminishing quantity of butter, point\\nto village growth demanding more teams and a larger supply of\\nmilk.\\nOther industries sprang up as the growing necessities of the\\npeople required. At first they supplied their own wants with\\nmany things now produced only by special trades.

BROWN\\nThe contrast between the past and the present is nowhere more\\nmarked than in methods of travel and transportation (p. 135). With\\nthe advent of railroads into Rochester began the permanent growth\\nof the town, which has been steady and healthful from that day\\nto this.\\nThe first regular trains run into this town were over the Great\\nFalls Conway Railroad, commencing March 6, 1849. There\\nwas a bitter rivalry between this road and the Cocheco which had\\nbeen chartered about the same time to run from Dover through\\nRochester to Alton Bay. Out of this rivalry sprang the famous\\nrailroad riot of February 21, 1849, the following account of\\nwhich is condensed from a Great Falls paper\\nWhen the Boston Maine Raih-oad built a branch to Great Falls, there\\nwas a written agreement that it should not be extended further north under\\ncertain specified penalties. This served to stifle for a time all railroad exten-\\nsion in this vicinity. The people of Dover learning that Great Falls had thus\\nsecured to itself a terminus on the country route, began to agitate the sub-\\nject of extending a railroad from Dover to Rochester and thence northward.\\nThe capitalists of Great Falls saw that if this were permitted, they would be\\nentirely cut off from the country routes. Though appearing to be geographi-\\ncally in the line, they would really be as much out of the line of trade and\\ntravel as if in the midst of the Atlantic. Therefore a proposition to establish\\nthe Great Falls Conway Railroad met with much favor. A charter was se-\\ncured, and when it became certain that Dover was about to make an iron grasp\\nupon Rochester, the building of the road was begun at once. The Dover cap-\\nitalists who had made every arrangement for building the Cocheco Railroad,\\nconsidering this a kind of trickery, worked earnestly against the Great Falls\\nConway road, and made an unsuccessful attempt to contest the validity of\\nits charter. The Great Falls Conway road had been surveyed and laid out by\\nits own engineers, and had taken bonds of the land where it crossed the Cocheco\\nroad. The Cocheco company employed the Railroad Commissioners to lay out\\ntheir road, who paid no attention to the claims of the Great Falls Conway,\\ndirecting the Cocheco company to pay the owners of the land a specified sum\\nfor damages. The owners, however, refused to accept it, though tendered to\\nthem in gold and silver coin. It was therefore deposited with the State Treas-\\nurer subject to their order. Subsequently the Great Falls Conway company\\npaid the land owners a sum which satisfied them for all damages. But the\\nCocheco road, resting on the authority of the Railroad Commissioners, persisted\\nin its claim, so that the crossing became a special point of battle between the\\ntwo roads. The track of the Great Falls Conway having been completed to\\nRochester Village, preparations were made to commence running trains on\\nThursday, the 22d of February. Anticipating a fracas, and to prevent tearing\\nup of the track, the Great Falls Conway had placed a heavily loaded car on\\nthe crossing, and trigged it at both ends with ties, besides running rails through\\nthe wheels between the spokes. The track had also been doubly spiked, and\\nthe whole work done in the most thorough manner. On the morning of the\\n21st a crowd of Rochester people had gathered upon or near the car, determined", "height": "3476", "width": "2104", "jp2-path": "historyoftownofr00mcdu_0178.jp2"}, "153": {"fulltext": "BUSINESS OF ROCHESTER. 491\\nthat it should not be removed, except to admit the passage of the Great Falls\\nConway train. During the forenoon a number of persons from Dover, among\\nwhom v?ere some of the most influential and wealthy men of Strafford county,\\nappeared on the disputed territory and gave orders for the removal of the car\\nthat they might finish up some work on the Cocheco road. The Rochester\\npeople informed them that the car could not be moved, whereupon they made\\nseveral attempts to attach ox-chains and drag it oH. In the squabble that en-\\nsued, several persons were slightly injured, one had a broken arm, and one came\\nnear losing his life. A constable was called and the riot act read, and William\\nHale, Jr., with others from Dover was arrested and required to recognize for par-\\nticipating in a riot. The result of the melee was that the rioters dragged off the\\ncar and pulled up the track.\\nThe scene of this riot was near where the brick station of the\\nBoston Maine Railroad was built at Railroad-avenue crossing.\\nIt stirred up a great deal of bad blood among the citizens of\\nRochester, but more especially between Great Falls and Dover,\\nso that for a long time it was not safe for a man living in either\\ncity to visit the other. The matter was finally settled by arbitra-\\ntion, the Great Falls Conway being obliged to move their\\ntrack, while the Cocheco road was given the right of way over\\nthe land which the Great Falls Conway had purchased.\\nFebruary 28, 1849, the Boston Maine company contracted to\\noperate the Great Falls Conway road for one year from Jan-\\nuary 1, 1849, and until one party shall give to the other six months\\nnotice of its intention to terminate the same.

A\\nbrick freight house was built about the same time just south of\\nRailroad Avenue. When the two roads united, a large wooden\\nfreight house newly built by the Eastern, which had possession\\nof the Great Falls Conway road, was moved to the south side\\nof the brick freight house, and from these two buildings all the\\nfreight business is now done. In 1860 the name Cocheco was\\nchanged to Dover Winnipiseogee, and the road was leased in\\n1862 to the Boston Maine.\\nAbout the close of the war, the question of new railroads began\\nto be agitated. The old York Cumberland road, which had\\nbeen chartered to Great Falls through Saccarappa, Gorham, and\\nAlfred, was completed as far as the Saco river. Prominent busi-\\nness men in Portland, Rochester, and the intervening towns were\\nvery active in having this road re-chartered to Rochester, under\\nthe name of Portland Rochester Railroad Company. At the\\nannual town meeting, March 10, 1868, Rochester voted to take\\nforty thousand dollars worth of stock in this road, and September\\n7, 1871, the selectmen were authorized and required forthwith to\\nhire that amount and pay it over to the treasurer of the Portland\\nRochester road, taking certificates of that amount of stock.

In the years 1863-65 very extensive improve-\\nments were projected, such as excavating a canal race-way below\\nthe falls, by which the fall of water was increased about three feet,\\ntwo granite wheel-pits constructed, and the foundation laid for\\nthe large mill on the river bank. This foundation is very sub-\\nstantial, commencing nine feet below the surface of the ground,\\nsix feet wide at the bottom, and three feet at the top, built of\\nsolid granite blocks laid in cement. On the foundation is the\\ngranite underpinning on which is the ])rick-work. The main\\nbuilding is fifty-four feet wide, one hundred and twenty long, and\\nfour stories high, each story eleven feet six inches high, the whole\\nconnected with the old or 1849 mill by a wing thirty-four by\\nsixty-four feet. An octagon stair-tower fourteen feet in diameter\\ngives access to the several stories in the large mill. The brick\\nwalls are built with pilasters between the windows, and are of\\nunusual thickness in order to give solidity and strength, the first\\nand second stories being twenty inches thick, the third sixteen,\\nand the fourth twelve. The roof is flat, covered with tar and\\ngravel. It is admirably lighted, having no less than forty-eight\\nwindows in each story with twenty-four lights of 10X14 glass to\\neach window, and there being no contiguous buildings or trees,\\nit is light as out doors. It is safe to say it is as fair a specimen\\nof a woolen mill of its size as exists anywhere, solid, substantial,\\nlight, and convenient. At the end of the wing where it connects\\nwith the old mill is the substantial wheel-house, in which are two\\npowerful turbine wheels, thirty-six inches in diameter, under nine-\\nteen feet head and fall, capable of furnishing about one hundred\\ni", "height": "3476", "width": "2104", "jp2-path": "historyoftownofr00mcdu_0194.jp2"}, "169": {"fulltext": "BUSINESS OF ROCHESTER. 505\\nand fifty horse power, sufficient for driving all the machinery. A\\nlarge steam engine, however, of 175 horse power is provided for\\ntimes of low water, or in case of any derangement of the water\\nwheels. Within the past ten years, under the present ownership,\\nmany important alterations, improvements, and additions have been\\nmade, resulting in increased production, better processes of man-\\nufacture, and consequently a higher standard of excellence in the\\ngoods. As at present arranged, the wool-sorting, the scouring and\\ndrying of both wool and cloth, the burling, brushing, pressing,\\nand packing, besides the running of forty-four broad looms, is done\\nin the old mill. The picking of the scoured wool is done in the\\nupper story of the wing, by a large Sargent burring machine, and\\nordinary wool-picker. The card-room is in the third story of the\\nlarge mill and contains twelve sets of Davis Furber machines,\\nthree cards to a set, and averages from 1,500 to 1,600 pounds of\\nroving a day. The spinning is done in the second and fourth\\nstories in both large mill and wing, on nineteen self-operating\\nmules and jacks with 4,880 spindles, turning off an average of\\n1,450 pounds of fine yarn a day. The spooling and dressing of\\nwarps is done on the first and second floor of the wing. The\\nweaving, besides the forty-four looms in the old mill, is by forty-\\neight looms on the first floor of the large mill, a large part being\\nof the Knowles pattern with drop-box at each end of the lay, and\\nfrom two to twenty-four harnesses to each. The brick boiler-house,\\n46X56 feet, was built in 1883, and has two six-foot boilers fur-\\nnishing steam for heating the building and for all the various\\nprocesses of scouring and finishing the goods, and having sufficient\\ncapacity to run the engine when required. A dry-house 30X90\\nfeet was built in 1886, and a wool and cloth scouring building\\n52X72 feet in 1889, both fully equipped with every facility for\\ndoing first class work. A large storehouse, 45X105 feet, two\\nstories high, is used for the storage of stock and supplies.

The people\\nwere not yet divided into parties. There were no nominating cau-\\ncuses, and consequently little or no concert of action. The vote\\nof the State was so scattered that there was no choice, and the\\nelectors were chosen by the Legislature. Rochester cast thirty\\nvotes, all of which were for John Sullivan, General Bellows, Gen-\\neral Stark, General Reed, and General Cilley. Sullivan and Bel-\\nlows were among those elected by the Legislature, and all the\\nelectors voted for Washington and Adams. The small vote of\\nRochester was not wholly owing to unanimity of feeling for Wash-\\nington, but to the fact that there were no working political organ-\\nizations. In voting for governor this same year the town had\\ncast 378 votes. It was not until the sixth Presidential election\\nthat the vote for electors nearly equalled the Governor vote in\\nthis town. There was no political excitement before the elections,\\nand but little allusion to the subject in the newspapers. In 1792\\nNew Hampshire had six electors. The Rochester vote was\\nJudge Thompson, 52 John McLuffee, 53 President Bartlett, 53\\nGeneral Bellows, 52 John T. Gilman, 45 Col. T. Badger, 28\\nand General Cilley, 23. There was no choice and a second trial\\ntook place November 12, when Rochester cast 22 votes each, for\\nPresident Bartlett, John T. Gilman, Benjamin Bellows, Jonathan\\nFreeman, John Pickering, and Ebenezer Thompson. Again there\\nwas no choice, and the Legislature appointed the six just named,\\nall of whom voted for Washington and Adams. In 1796 the\\nRepublican and Federal parties had become somewhat\\norganized although party lines were not strictly observed. The\\nRochester vote stood as follows: Ebenezer Thompson, Esq., 63;\\nGeneral Bellows, 26; Governor Gilman, 26; Oliver Peabody, 14;\\nTimothy Farrar, Esq., 21; Joseph Badger, Jun., 16; Christopher\\nTappan, Esq., 9: Bezaliel Woodward, Esq., 8 and John Godard,\\nEsq., 1. The last five of these were elected and voted for John\\nAdams and Oliver Ellsworth. For the Presidential election ot\\n1800 no vote of this town is on record.

In 1808 the state vote was given\\nto the Federal candidate, Charles E. Pinckney, but Rochester\\nvoted 189 RepubHcan, and 61 Federal. In 1812 New Hampshire\\nchose eight electors who voted for De Witt Clinton, the Federal\\ncandidate. Rochester cast 218 Republican, and 77 Federal votes.\\nIn 1816 the vote of the State was given to the Republican candi-\\ndate, James Monroe. Rochester voted 205 Republican, and 56\\nFederal. The time of the ninth Presidential election, in 1820,\\nhas been called the era of good feeling, the whole electoral\\nvote being cast for James Monroe, except that of Governor Plumer\\nof New Hampshire, who voted for John Quincy Adams. He\\nexplained his course by saying it was not from any dislike to\\nMonroe, but because he wished to prevent any other man than\\nWashington having the compliment of a unanimous vote. In\\nRochester five candidates on the Republican ticket received 69\\nvotes each William Plumer had 48 David Barker had 65 while\\non the Federal ticket, Moses Hale had 20, William Hale 19, and\\nthe rest one vote each. In 1824 John Quincy Adams received\\nthe vote of New Hampshire, and the 73 votes of Rochester were\\nall cast for the Adams ticket. In 1828 the question was Adams\\nor Jackson, and there was more violent partisanship than ever\\nbefore. In Rochester the Adams party opened the glorious\\nFourth with a salute of thirteen guns. Then a procession under\\nWilliam G. Webster as marshal, escorted by the Artillery Com-\\npany under Capt. William Hurd, marched to the old meeting-\\nhouse on the common, which had been profusely decorated for\\nthe occasion. Hon. Nathaniel Upham was president of the day.\\nThe exercises were opened with prayer by the Rev. Isaac Willey,\\nand were interspersed with select pieces of music. The Decla-\\nration was read by John P. Hale. Hon. David Barker, Jr.,\\ndelivered an oration, afterwards published, in which he reviewed\\nthe issues of the day, and the past and present condition of polit-\\nical parties. The celebration closed with a sumptuous dinner at\\nLowell Kenney s hall, followed by toasts and speeches from almost\\neverybody in Rochester, Barrington, and Farmington. The Adams\\nparty carried the State, and though Rochester had voted for the\\nJackson party by twenty majority in March, the Presidential vote\\nwas 227 for Adams and 225 for Jackson. In 1832 the parties\\nhad become definitely organized as Whigs and Democrats.

In 1843 John P. Hale, a\\nson of Rochester, was one of the Representatives elected to Con-\\ngress by the Democrats. But when that party gave their support to\\nthe annexation of Texas and the extension of slavery, he refused to\\nvote with them.

Some small and newly\\nincorporated townships were represented, while many of the older\\nand more populous places were refused representation. This im-\\nportant privilege depended entirely upon the will of the royal\\nGovernor, by whom writs were issued at his own pleasure. In\\n1758 the people of Rochester petitioned for representation, but\\nwere refused. Four years later the privilege was granted, as shown\\nby the following record\\nPursuant to a presept from the high sheriff of the Province on March 9, 1762,\\na town meeting was held at which Lieut, [afterwards Col.] John McDuffee was\\nchosen to represent the town in Geneial Assembly to be convened at Portsmouth\\non Wednesday the 10 of March instant, and so from time to time during the\\nsessions of said house.\\nHe was chosen not for a single year, but according to English\\ncustom, to retain the otHce until the election of a new Assembly\\nmight be ordered by the Governor, and was regular in his attend-\\nance for several years.\\nThe last Provincial Assembly convened at Portsmouth, February\\n23, 1775, but proving refractory, Governor Wentworth abandoned\\nthe Province and retired to the Isles of Shoals. James Knowles\\nwas the Representative from Rochester. To the first Provincial\\nCoi]gress, which met at Exeter May 17, 1775, James Knowles and\\nLieut. John McDutfee were Delegates. James Knowles was also\\nDelegate to the second Provincial Congress which met December\\n21, 1775, and established the first independent government in the Colonics.\\nThe Constitution adopted by them remained in force till 1784,\\nwhen the new State Constitution took its place.\\nIn 1792 Rochester first chose two Representatives. In the same\\nyear Portsmouth had three Representatives. Londonderry and\\nRochester had two each, and no other town in the State had more\\nthan one. After the incorporation of Milton in 1802 Rochester had\\nbut one Representative for thirteen years. It then had two again\\nfrom 1816 to 1853. The number was then increased to three for\\nten years. Then four Representatives were chosen from 1865\\nuntil 1872. In 1873 the number was increased to five.

The Rochester vote was 250 against and onl} 14\\nin favor. Nevertheless the pkin prevailed, and in 1874 the select-\\nmen were instructed to sell the town farm at public auction within\\nthirty days, reserving the pest house and the burying ground.\\nSince that time residents needing temporary aid have been supplied\\nat their homes, but those needing permanent help have been taken\\nto the county farm.\\nThe first constable chosen by the town was John Maefee in\\n1737, and it was voted that he shall have five pounds for serving\\nwhen his year is out. The principal duty of this oflice was the\\ncollection of taxes, and it was very diificult to get the oflice suit-\\nably filled. A fine imposed ior refusal was frequently paid on the\\nspot by one who was so unfortunate as to be elected. AW suitable\\npersons were expected to take their turn unless they could pro-\\ncure a substitute, or ofi^er some satisfactory excuse. In 1781 the\\ndifficulty appears to have reached a climax. Simon Torr was chosen\\nconstable, but was excused from serving this year. Samuel\\nPlumer was chosen, but was voted out from serving. Elijah\\nVarney was chosen and paid his fine, but afterwards the town for\\na good reason excused him, and refunded the fine. Sanmel Sea-\\nvey was chosen and then voted out. Ithamar Seavey was chosen\\nbut the vote was reconsidered, and finally, the selectmen were\\nauthorized to hire a constable, which plan was usually adopted\\nthereafter. One great reason of the difficulty of filling the oflice\\nwas undoubtedly the constantly changing value of the currency,\\nwhich rendered the adjustment of accounts exceedingly diflicult.\\nConstables were frequently behind in their payments, and the town\\ninstructed their agents to prosecute them.

For the next four years Paul Kimball bid it\\nofl receiving, in 1825, $20.

Besides the various state and\\nnational holidays, Rochester, like other towns, has often observed\\ncertain days of her own for recreation and enjoyment. At present\\nno holiday is so eagerly awaited by the inhabitants of this and the\\nneighboring towns as the Rochester Fair, held at that most delight-\\nful of seasons, the last of September and the first of October. The\\ngeneral muster of the militia at the same time of year was a holi-\\nday of no less interest and importance to the people of two preced-\\ning generations. By a state law of 1792, able-bodied citizens be-\\ntween the ages of eighteen and forty-five were required to meet\\ntwice a year for military drill. To these spring and fall trainings\\nfor each company in its own town was afterwards added the annual\\nmuster of the Thirty-ninth Regiment. This regiment consisted of\\nfive companies of regular infantry, one from each of the villages of\\nFarmington, West Farmington, Milton Three Ponds, Gonic, and\\nRochester, together with one Light Infantry Company collected\\nfrom all parts of the district, and the Rochester Artillery Com-\\npany.* Sixty years ago this company ranked among the finest\\nmilitary organizations in the State. The only other companies that\\ncould be regarded as its rivals were the Strafi:brd Guards of Dover,\\nthe Rockingham Guards of Portsmouth, and the Keene Light In-\\nfantry, commanded by the veteran Gen. James Wilson. In its early\\ndays this arm of the old militia was the pride of Rochester and em-\\nbraced many of her best citizens. This company was organized as\\nearly as 1825 by William Hurd,t wdio was its first captain. Under\\nhis command the company became noted for efficiency and exact\\ndiscipline. It was his boast that when drilling as infantry, he could\\nmarch them over a ha3 -mow without breaking ranks. His daugh-\\nter, Mrs. Hubbard, relates, with commendable pride, that when\\nthey were to engage in a sham fight and competitive drill at Dover,\\nThe following account of this company is mainly on authority of Colonel Whitehouse.\\nt William Hurd moved into the village about 1816, and left manj remembrances of his\\npublic spirit, among which are trees of his planting which still beautify both sides of Main\\nstreet.", "height": "3412", "width": "2054", "jp2-path": "historyoftownofr00mcdu_0245.jp2"}, "220": {"fulltext": "652 ROCHESTER.\\nher father, anxious that every member should be on time, had the\\nwhole company assemble at his house in the night, where he gave\\nthem a hot breakfast and then marched them to Dover, whence\\nthey marched back the same night, bringing the prize with them.\\nThey were trained to perform the most difficult evolutions at the\\nmotion of the sword, and rarely made a mistake. After the death\\nof Captain Hurd in 1830, Jonathan H. Henderson commanded the\\ncompany, and his successors in office were Joseph Dame, James M.\\nW. Downs, Charles Demerritt, Lewis Garhmd, George W. Yarney,\\nand Ezekiel Ricker who commanded the company for the last seven\\nyears of its existence. Members were carefully selected as to size\\nand all other qualifications, and ever}- man who could not fill the\\nbill was rejected. Consequently, membership was sought as an\\nhonor, and its ranks were filled with bright, energetic young men,\\nand its officers were men of public spirit, standing, and character\\nin the community. Thus the company was a favorite with the peo-\\nple, and its gatherings for drill were always looked forward to with\\nmuch interest. Their gun was an exceptionally fine brass six-\\npounder, which was kept in a building near where the schoolhouse\\nstands, on the east side of the common, bearing the inscription,\\nGun House, 39th Reg t.

The scenes and incidents of those\\nmuster days defy description. Everybody and his wife and chil-\\ndren, rising long before day, came flocking to town in rattling\\nwagons, hay-carts, ox-carts, and lumbering vehicles of indescribable\\nvariety, or hastening across the frosty fields on foot, clad in Sunday\\ngarb, with glowing faces and staring eyes, eager to be astonished at\\nthe long-expected display, and to enjo} the sports and excitements\\nof the occasion.

And yet the officer s po-\\nsition was not of unmixed pleasure. It had its drawbacks. His\\nelection brought the immediate necessity of treating the company,\\nand a frequent method of honoring an officer was to assemble\\naround his house in the early morning, weakening him with their\\nfurious cheers, and then partake of a hearty breakfast not ungar-\\nnished with other refreshments, at his expense. Such things\\nhave a tendency to constant growth, so that in later times, at least,\\nmany refused military ofiice on account of the increasing attendant\\nexpenses.\\nThe muster field at its best presented a gay appearance. The\\nvarious companies drawn up in line, with muskets and accouter-\\nments bright and clean, the ofificers scattered between the lines with\\nfine uniforms and stately plumes, the Light Infantry much like the\\nofiicers but with shorter plumes, and the Artillery Company with\\ntheir formidable cannon, together with the motley crowd on every\\nside, must have been an attractive and interesting scene. Ginger-\\nbread carts, candy stands, and all sorts of variety shows, with an\\noccasional fight between heated partisans from different towns, af-\\nforded abundant merriment and diversion. Liquor and gambling\\nbooths grew more and more frequent, so that one year Captain\\nSamuel Jones and his company from Farmington made a charge\\nupon them and pitched them and their belongings over the fence,\\n(p. 313.)\\nThe brisk step, tlie martial dignity, and the clear, distinct orders\\nof the morning had, in those days, generally become somewhat\\nlimp, languid, and indistinct toward the close of the day.

It was customary to fire\\na salute at the moment the Colonel appeared on the field. One\\nColonel, deeply sensible of the dignity of the office to which he\\nhad just been commissioned, complained to the Artillery Company\\nthat their salute was not loud enough, not at all such as the\\nColonel of the Thirty-ninth Regiment ought to receive. The\\ncompany made no reply, but the next year loaded their cannon\\nto the very muzzle, and awaited his arrival. As he rode upon\\nthe field, erect and swelling with a proud sense of his great dignit}^,\\nthe salute came w^th a terrific explosion. Everybody was startled,\\nand the Colonel s horse becoming unmanageable cast his noble form\\nwith all its splendid adornments sprawling in the dust. As they\\nintended, no further complaints were made of the weakness of their\\nsalute.\\nThis same Colonel in making the customary speech to the Reg-\\niment in the afternoon, was very pompous and fond of using high-\\nsounding words without regard to their fitness. One of his expres-\\nsions has come down to the present time. He said he hoped nobody\\nwould do anything to disgrace, enhance, or rklicale the militia.\\nThe last general muster was in 1847, and the remembrance of\\nthose festive scenes is fast fading away, so that it is now diflicult\\nto realize the important position which Muster Day held in\\nthe lives of our predecessors.

AVithin three weeks after the subject was first\\nbroached, the fair was in successful operation on the old Riverside\\nTrotting Park. A hastily collected exhibition of farm and mechan-\\nical products was displayed in a canvas tent. For the next two\\nyears no fair was held because satisfactory arrangements could not\\nbe made with the Riverside Association. In 1877 and 1878, how-\\never, fairs were successfully held on the same ground. After trying\\nin vain to purchase the Riverside Park, the Agricultural and Me-\\nchanical Association bought a tract of thirty-eight acres, which\\nthey named Cold Spring Park, from the powerful spring in a\\nwooded ravine on its eastern side, from which a steam-pump\\nforces an abundant supply of pure cold water to all parts of the\\ngrounds. The first fair held in this park was in 1879. The\\nexhibition building then used was destroyed by a violent storm\\nin the wdnter of 1882, and the present one was erected the fol-\\nlowing summer, being in the form of a Maltese cross 90 feet each\\nway. Besides this there is a mechanics building 35 by 100 feet, a\\ngrand stand capable of seating two thousand persons, and stables\\n1,250 feet in length. There is also an art building 25 by 60 feet\\nwith a graceful tower in the center, and a Cafe consisting of\\ntwo wings, each 25 by 77 feet.

He was\\na master in his trade and besides running two forges, often worked\\nwhen the town was otherwise hushed in sleep. His great skill\\nin working steel extended to other towns, and brought him a large\\namount of that kind of work. In public affairs he early mani-\\nfested a deep interest, and became associated with that class of\\ncitizens who were known as the solid men of the town, because\\nof their quiet unassuming ways and strong determination to act\\nfrom conviction.\\nWhen he removed to Gonic in 1827, the place was in a very\\ncrude condition. There was no church, no business of any con-\\nsequence except farming, and no more society than the country\\ndistricts of the present afford. Here he resumed his trade in the\\nbrick shop which to-day forms part of a dwelling-house on Main\\nstreet, and found abundance of work awaiting him. Soon after\\nsettling in his new home, he began to deal in real estate in con-\\nnection with his trade, and owned a large farm on the western\\nside of the village. On this farm is located the mineral spring\\nwhich was a favorite drinking place of the Indians, while the large\\nrock close by served as their lookout. Tradition says that a party\\nof braves were once surprised here while drinking, and the one\\nstationed on the lookout killed, his body being buried at the foot\\nof the rock. Many now follow the example of the red men and\\nresort to this spring in the hot days of summer, while some have\\nbeen benefited by its medicinal properties.\\nHe freely gave his time and energy for the improvement of\\nthe village, serving as a member of the committee that erected\\nthe first church in 1840, which was dedicated in the Freewill\\nBaptist faith, and to this church he and his good wife assumed\\nallegiance.

Mr. Jenks put his hand on his head, and with one of\\nthe prettiest of his pretty smiles replied, I am afraid that you\\nare yet too small, my little man, to do much in a printing-office.\\nThat night when the little man went to his dreams, he had\\nthe satisfaction of knowing that he was big enough to have\\nearned twenty -five cents at over -work as roller -boy the first\\nevening. This incident illustrates the make-up of the subject of\\nthis sketch. When any work was in hand he could be relied\\non to help pull through, whether it was for an hour or for\\nall night. He had come to learn, and invariably shared the\\nearly and late office hours of those days with his more experienced\\nassociates. By quickly mastering all office details he pushed\\nrapidly to the front, making himself indispensable, and Mr. Jenks\\nsoon learned that in this case at least size was no test of capa-\\nbility. In less than three years, September 10, 1855, he became\\na partner in the business, Henry A. Gage retiring. l^ot long\\nafterwards Mr. Jenks also retired, and the firm became Abbott\\nWarren. In the early part of 1857 the establishment was sold\\nto Simeon D. Farnsworth.\\nSoon after retiring from the American, Mr. Warren left\\nManchester for Sioux City, Iowa, then in its infancy. Its people,\\nlargely from New Hampshire, had oftered a liberal bonus to\\nwhoever would start a newspaper there, and Mr. Warren went\\nthither to secure it. He was joined at Dubuque by his former\\npartner. General Abbott, and with several others journeyed in\\nthe month of April across the State of Iowa in a farmers\\nwagon which had been driven from Indiana by one Phil. Clark,\\nan intimate friend of Abraham Lincoln in his early life.

A printer\\nfrom the office of the Cincinnati Gazette had preceded him\\nbj several weeks, and was nearly ready to add to journalism the\\nSioux City Eagle. After getting the business well started, he\\narranged with Mr. Warren to run the establishment a few weeks,\\nthat he might return and settle up his alFairs in Cincinnati. The\\npaper prospered so well in his hands that the owner prolonged\\nhis absence till the spring of 1858. Upon his return, Mr. War-\\nren s friends proposed to buy the Eagle establishment and\\nmake him a present of it. But the owner refused to sell, and\\nMr. Warren returned to Manchester.\\nJ^ot long after, he received a flattering letter from the mayor\\nof Sioux City proposing that if he would join a party about to\\nestablish the tovvn of Yankton in Dakota, and start a paper there,\\nthey would bear all expenses, and closing with the urgent words,\\nCome Come Come But the boy (for he was yet a minor)\\nhad already fully satisfied his ambition in the direction of pioneer\\nlife, and declined the offer.\\nIn October, 1858, he went to Andover, Mass., where for nearly\\neight years he was connected with the widely-known Andover\\nhouse, one of the oldest book-printing establishments in the\\ncountry. For six years he managed the printing department and\\nedited the Andover Advertiser. His health failing, in the\\nspring of 1866 he removed to Burlington, Iowa. The climate\\nproving salutary, he entered upon mercantile life in company\\nwith Parsons and Berry, wholesale dealers in stoves and tinners\\nstock. Coming East twice a year to purchase goods he became\\nfavorably known among tin-plate importers, and in 1873 was\\ninduced to become the agent of Richards Co. of Boston, and\\nrepresented them in the larger western cities for several years.\\nAmong the tin-plate importers and metal dealers of the country\\nonly two command the highest rating on the agency books\\nPhelps, Dodge Co. of New York, the largest house in the\\nworld in this line of trade, and Fuller, Dana Fitz of Boston.\\nAfter declining an unsolicited offer from the former, on account\\nof the field of labor contemplated, Mr. Warren accepted a posi-\\ntion with the latter house August, 1876, and continues to represent\\nthem in the West, with headquarters at Chicago.
