EARLY SETTLEMENT

This early-settled town lies in the north-eastern part of Hillsboro County, just west of the metropolitan city of Man- chester, to which city the town of which we are writiug has made valuable accessions of territory. Goffstown originally extended to the Merrimac on the east and included also a portion of Hooksett lying west of the Men imac. 1 his terri- tory in connection with six other townships, was granted by the Great and General Court of Massachusetts, in 1728, to the soldiers, or heirs-at-Iaw of the soldiers ol the King Philip or Narragansett War, which ended fifty years before the grant was made. It is probable, therefore, that very few of these soldiers were then living.

In June, 1733, it seems these grantees, (about 840 in number) met on the town common in Boston for thepurpose of dividing the land thus given them. They formed them- selves into seven separate societies, and each society then organized and chose an executive committee to look after its interests. These committees met in Boston, Oct. 17,

6 HISTORICAL.

1733, at which tirae the members of the several townships, from one to seven, were placed in a hat and successively drawn. Goflfstowu was drawn as Narragansett, No. 4, which name it bore for several years.

But this was not the foundino^ of the town. The terri- tory of New Hampshire had been gTauted to John Mason, an English naval officer; and was claimed b3^ liis heirs, now referred to as the Masonian proprietors. These men estab- lished their claim, in opposition to Massachusetts claims, and made a orant of the townsliip of (ioffstown (Goffs is the Celtic for Smith) to Rev. Thomas Parker, of Dracut; Colonel Sampson Stoddard and John Buttertield of Chelmsford; Joseph Blanchard,Robt. Davidson, John Coombs and James Karr, of Dunstable; John Goffe. and John Goffe Jr., James Walker, Mathew Patten, John ]\Iooie, Timothy Corlise, Thomas Farmer, Zaccheus Cutting, Samuel Patten, Alexan- der Walker, all of Sowhegan East (or Bedford) ; Thos. Foll- ensbee, Joshua Follensbee, Caleb Paige, Beni. Richards (a brave Indian fighter) Peter Moise, Caleb Enier^', John Dow, Peter Harriman of Haverhill ; Abram Men-ill, Benj. Stearns, John Jewell, Ephraim Martin, Nathaniel Martin. Aaron Wells, and Caleb Dalton, all of a place called Amoskeag; James Adams, Win. Orr, Job Kidder and John Kidder of Londonderry; Win. Read and Robt. Read, James McKnight, Wm. Cummings, all of Litchfield; and Samuel Griggs, Edward White, Esq., John White, all ot Brooklyn; which grant was made at Portsmouth in the mouth of December, 1748, upon the following conditions:

"That the whole tract, saving the particular tracts herin-

HISTORICAL. 7

after mentioned, be divided into sixty-eight shares, orrights and each right be laid out into three distinct lots, and num- bered with the same number on each of said lots, the num- bers of the rights to begin with one and end \\\i\\ sixty-eight: that one of the said shares be for the first Minister of the Gospel who shall be settled on said tract of land hereby granted, and shall remain there during his life, or until he shall be regularly dismissed, to hold to him, his heirs and assigns, and one other lot or share for and toward the sup- port of the Gospel Minister forever: that two of the three lots shall belong to each share shall contain one hundred acres each."

But without quoting further, provision was made that the minister's lot should be near the meeting house, that another share, or right be reserved for the proprietors; that within one year from the time of drawing each owner of a share shall have a house sixteen feet square, (with a chimney and cellar) upon one end of his lot, and some person living in said house; and four acres of laud inclosed, cleared and fitted for mowing and tillage (four acres to be fitted during each of the succeeding two years, to build a meeting house within three years, and three years after the completion of the meeting house to maintain public worship therein; to pay £35, old tenor, per share, and to hold in reserve "all white pine trees growing on said tract of land, fit for his majesty's use iu Masting the Royal Navy." This was like- wise a condition of the charter of incoporation, {and was an- nulled only by that famous document, the Declaration of Independence.

8 HISTORICAL.

The conditions of this grant were met by many of the grantees to whom is due the credit of being the foremost pioneers of this town.

Other earl}^ settlers in town were Antipos Dodge, John Dinsmore; McCIary and Mr. Sessions who made their clear- in'^s oil the south side of the maiiataiQ; Mr. Todd, at the Moore place; and Mr. Butterfield and Mr. Robie, a little north of VVm. Todd's clearing. Mathew Kennedy was one of the first settlers, and the first white child born in town was his son, Samuel. He lived where B. F. Aiken formerly lived ia Shirley Hill district. Mr Kennedy was a thrifty farmer. Lieut. Moses Little lived half way up Robie Hill, Asa Pattee, Job Dow (where E. Richards now lives in the village) anl John Goffe (at Mrs. Artemus Whitney's now on North Mast Street) .

Alexander Walker, the old town clerk, cleared and erected his cabin on the old Walker place, now owned by Geo. E. Waite. Samuel Blodgett made a laige clearing a mile or so from Amoskeag Falls, now in Manchester; he was regarded the wealthiest of the early settlers, and in many respects the most remarkable man.

Robert McGregor settled in Goffstown in 1 777. Hetook an important part, under Gen. Stark, in the Revolutionary War, and was afterward an energetic merchant and business man in this town. He was the projector and proprietor of the first bridge across the Merrimac River on the site of the present Old Central bridge. Among the most distinguished, of the early settlers of this town may also be mentioned, Samuel Blodgett, Moses Keiiey, Colonel Goffe, Sam'l Rich-

mSTOEICAL. 9

ards, Asa Pattee, John Butterfield, Thos. Shirley, James Karr, Mathew Kenuedv, Joshua Martio, Wm. McDoell, aud the Poors. There was a Mr. Worthley among: the first set- tlers, who lived near where David A. Parker afterward lived, near the cove, so called, but was driven off by the Indians. He afterward returned and was again disturbed, and moved to Weare, where he settled near the Cold Spring.

To these men, and others perhaps less proniiuect, is due the credit and honor of having been the men who here faced the dangers of pioneer life when this entire state was inhab- ited almost excusively by the hostile Indians and the less treacherous wild animals' of the forest; here they labored through heat and cold,throngh disappointment and discour- agement, that they might make for themselves and their numerous posterity, homes aiid names that should be val- ued and honored throughout succeeding generations.

INCORPORATION

Goffstown was incorporated on June 16, 1761, by the Governor and Council of New Hampshire, to continue a cor- porate bodv until March 25, 1763. On April 5th, 1763, the incorporation was revived "to continue until we shall please to approve or disallow the same." Previous to its incorpor- ation this place had sometime been called "Shrove's-town."

10 HISTOEICAL.

It was given its present name in honor of Col. John Goffe, a prominent man in the settlement.

A portion of this town was combined with parts of Dun- barton and Chester, to form the town of Hooksett, Jnly 2, 1822. Some islaiids \u tlie Merrimac River were annexed to this town June 20, 1825. Isaac Parker's farm was severed from New Boston and annexed June 18, 1836. The line between Dunbarton and Goffstown was established Jan. 7, 1853. Up to this time, Goffstown extended to the Merrimac River, including what is now West Mancluster, but on July 1, 1853, that portion of Manchester west of the River was severed from this town and annexed to the city.

The present area of Goffstown is 29,170 acres. The pop- ulation in 1775 was 831. The United States census has shown the population of this town for the successive decades, beginning 1790 to have been as follows: 1790, 1275; 1800, 1G12; 1810, 2000; 1820, 2173; 1830, 2213; 1840, 2370; 1850, 2270; 18G0, 1740; 1870, 1G5G; 1880, 1699; 1890, 1981; 1900, 2528; the last figures being the largest of any in the list. The present increase is due largely to the re-establish men t of the county fHrm in this town, which institution has an average membershi)) of Irom 425 to 450. Since the new electric railroad, connecting the town with Manchester, has been built, several from the city have pur- chased lots on the line of road, and established beautiful and convenient homes within eas}^ access to the city.

MILITARY MATTERS

When the news of the battle of Lexington reached Goffs- town, it was quickly spread throughout the settlement. Almost to a man, the patriots left their implements of hus- bandry, and hurried to the place of rendezvous, where a com- pany, under Capt. Joshua Martin, was speedily enrolled, and marched to the seat of war. The ladies oi the town also partook largely of the revolutionary spirit. They cast bul- lets and made cartridges, and were always distinguished for habits of industry and skill, making all articles of clothing, for to use foreign goods was extravagant and unpatri- otic.

Goffstown furnished its full quota of soldiers ot the Con- tinental army. The following is a nearly complete list of these men.

There may be a few omissions, but it is the best record that can be obtained, and probably the most accurate. Those marked with a star (*) were killed or died in the ser- vice.

Capt. Samuel Richards, Lieut. Moses Little, Lieut. Tim- othy Blake, Ensign Jesse Carr*, Antipos Dodge, Ichabod Martin, Timothy Moshire, David McClure, David McClure, J r., Robert Spear, John Dinsmore, Alexander Gilchrist, Robert Gilchrist*, Robert Gilchrist, Jr., John Sessions*, and wife, Lieut. Phillip Ferrin, Alexander McDoell*, (also in the French and Indian war) died while returning from the War of the Revolution to his home; Wm. McDoell, Jr., James McPherson, John McPherson, John Todd*, Collins Eaton*,

John Woods, John Little, John Gilmore, Matthew Kennedy, Andrew Newell* (killed at the evacuation of Ticonderoga), Eleazer Emerson, Seth Wyinan, Samuel Dunlap, Samuel Remick* (wounded at Bennington and brought home by Capt. E. Richards, with two other 3'pung men), Timothy Johnson, Samuel Barr, John Woods, Edward Woods, Sam'l Smith, David Stevens* (brought home sick, wounded, and died), Benj. Stevens, Jr., Ward Clark, Nathan Hawes, Amos Richards, Eliphalet Kemp, Robert McGregory, Wm. Houston, Jesse Dickey, Is;!cher King, John Butterfield, Jon- athan Bell, John Bell, Nathaniel Stevens, Ezra Myrack*, Joshua Wilson, John McClintock, Joshua Bell, Benj.

Shirley, Joshua Mar- tin, Elijah Kidder, Jacob Sargent, Sam'l Orr*, (wounded in the leg, near the knee), and Stewart Mars, a colored man, — seventy -four in all.

Of the record of these men the town is justly proud. Few towns of the State can show a longer list, or a list of men who performed better service in the American Army. Many of these were found at Bunker Hill, in the thickest of the fight; many of these were in Washington's army when Corn- walHs surrendered at Yorktown; in the mean time they had been found faithful and loyal Patriots.

The military history of Goffsfown is a source of just

16 HISTORICAL.

pride. If one thino; more than another is to be revered and commemorated, impressed upon the mind of the rising- gen- eration, that thing: is the record of names and deeds of men who faced the dang-ers of the battlefield for the welfare and safety of the country. Time rolls on and we are apt to for- get the vaule of the service rendered by the soldier in war. Each succeeding generation is more forgetful of these things than is its predecessor, unless it is taught to revere and love the memory of the deeds of the soldier. It should be in the mind of each lather and each mother to instill into the mind of the youth the significance of the inscription, "Killed at Gettysburg," "Wounded at Vicksburg," "Died in Libby Prison," etc. No one should lose the opportunity to impress upon the generation to which he belongs and the one which follows, the responsibility which rests upon each man.

INDUSTRIAL ACCOUNT

Many of the Pioneers of Goftstown were men who oa ve consideraVjle time to hunting, as well as to the cultivation of the fertile acres which they cleared of the primeval timber in order to raise the neccessary corn for their bread, and grain for theii- cattle. These men were well skilled in the use of the flint-lock gun, and as the f<u'ests abounded in wild game hunting was to them a vakiable pastime, but no doubt was often resorted to because of the pleasure it afforded.

Not long after the arrival of these men they discovered theimmonse value locked up.in the extensive forests which everywliere covered the hills and valleys, except where dot- ted here and f here by the narrow clearings. Soon saw-mills were erected, and the lumbei thus }>repared was U!«ed in the construction of more spacious and comfortable homes, and ffrist-mills added for the giinding of corn, wheat and barley.

HISTOEICAL. 19

Saw-mills were constructed on the streams wherever power was to be had throughout different parts of the town, and for many years sawing and exporting lumber was one of the leading industries.

Oa the site now occupied by Parker Bros.' gristmill, Beniah Richards, about 1825, erected the first woolen mill in town. This he operated until his death in 1840, having organized the (loffstown Manufacturing Co. Another mill was erected on the opposite side of the stream, on the site now occupied by the bobbin mill, and was operated by the same company as Mr. Richard's mill. To these mills, and especially to the first erected, the surrounding farmers brought their fleeces, and had the wool carded, spun and woven in to cloth for household use. After the death of Mr. Richards the business was discontinued, and the buildings used for the manufacture of sash and blinds. This mill site was given his son by Eliphalet Richards who owned a large section of land north of the river, in what is now the village.

Thesiteof the second mill mentioned became the location of a sash and blind factory, then a factory for making mack- erel kits, a match factory and a carriage shop, and a variety of other industries.

Hambleton Bros., manufacturers of spools and bobbins, succeeded Otis Allen & Sons, box manufacturers, in August, 1900. This business was removed from Merrimac, N. H.; it employs 60 hands who receive |450 weekly in wages. This is an independent company, which operates a branch in Warner, where 15 men are employed. The product is shipped to all parts of New England and the South, where the spools

20 HISTOEICAL.

and bobbins manufactured are used in the cotton and worsted niills.

The old sash and blind factory, now closed, was estab- lished by Hadley & Blaisdell. and was carried on by them until Mr. Blaisdell sold his interest to Oren Moore. Hadley & Moore operated the plant for about 20 years, after which it was carried on by Alviu Hadley & Co. until it was discon- tinued about 1900. This was an extensive business, employ- ing as many as 75 hands at one time, and adding much activity to the business of the place.

Kendall, Hadley & Co.'s steam sash and blind factory was established in 1808, by Kendrick Kendall, Henry Had- ley, and Lewis H. Stark, and active operations begun the same year. When built Jesse Nichols occupied one-third of the mill, and was succeeded by other smaller manufacturers, but the entire building, together with the several additions that have been made, is now occupied bj' this company. Seventy-five men are given employment and are paid fort- nightly, from .^plOOO to |1200 for their services. The product consists of sashes, blinds, and window-frames, most of which are made of white pine. The entire product, amounting to from |1 00,000 to $125,000 worth annually, is shipped to the Boston markets.

Ervin Moore's scythe-rifle business was established in 1854 by Oren and Samuel C. Moore and has never passed out of the family 200 gross of scythe-rifles are manufact- ured each season at thf shop located on East Union street. Here Mr. Moore also carries on a carriage repairing and paint shop.

HISTOEICAL. 21

Parker Bros.' grist milK which occupies the site of the ori2;inal woolen factory, was erected by Kendrick Kendall, David Parker, and John F. Parker about 1881. The present owners have operated the mill since 1887, in connection with their general store on Main St.

So far we have only mentioned the mechanical industries located within the limits of the village, and at present these are about all that are doing very much business outside of the several portable mills which are being operated in differ- ent sections of the town.

At Goffstown Center, or Grasmere, on the site of the present j)ulpmill, have been located several different mills for the manufacture of different products, during the last century. The first mill on this privilege was a saw mill, which probably had a grist mill connected. Later a stock- ing mill was built here. This was burned, and the site bought by the P. C, Cheney Co. who erected a paper mill, which was operated under the name of the Excelsior Fibre Co. for a few years. This mill also was burned, afterwhich the original portion of the present pulp mill was erected by the P. C.Cheney Co. In 1884 or 1885 the new part was added to the mill, and for several years following that date the place was the scene of a good deal of activity and enterprise. From 50 to 60 men were employed regularly. The business was Glossed in 1901 on account of the company tailing in busi- ness, and during the last three years the mill has stood idle.

Robertson's saw mill, situated on Black-brook, beside black-brook road was built about 43 years ago, on the site that had been occupied by a saw mill for sixty years previ-

22 HISTORICAL.

ouB. This site is 2% miles from Duubarton line, the same dis- tance from Grasmere postoffice, and 6 miles from the city of Manchester. The mill was built by David Wells, Frank Ste- vens, and Joseph Dunlap; and came into the hands ofG. T. Robertson about 1880. Up to five years ao'o this mill did a flourishing business, but much of the lumber in the section is beino- used up by the portable steam mills, with which the stationary mills are uuable to compete. From 300 to 400 thousand feet of lumber is now sawed annually at this mill, and employment is given to four men.

SUMMER HOUSES.

During recent years many citizens of Goffstown have been turning their attention to the entertainment of summer visitors. Few^ towns in the state can offer more beautiful or varied scenery, and few are in so easy access to a large com- mercial center.

The Shirley Hill. House, on Shirley Hill, has become a well-known resort. This accommodates 185 guests and is open during most of the summer when every provision is made for their pleasure and convenience. Shirley Johnson is proprietor.

Mount Pleasant House, H. W. Merrill, Proprietor, ac- commodates 18 to 20 visitors. This is a beautiful scenic spot overlooking the valley of the Piscataquog, and is open about four months during the season. Many others in the town accommodate limited numbers of city folk, who have learned to appreciate the pure water, the fresh air, and the charming-scenery of the Uncanoonucs, ri.sin<i 1300 feet above the sea, from which can be seen the White Mountains, the Green Mountains, the Maine Coast and Boston Harbor.

CHURCH AFFAIRS

FIRST PARISH, OH CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH

The men and women who settled this town, and, in fact, all New Eaoland towns duriu;j- the eighteenth century, were a church-going people. As soon as this town was chartered (June 17, 17G1) the people began to make preparations for settling a gospel minister. £100 was voted foi' this purpose at the first annual town-meeting. It was also voted that "half thepreaching be at James Karr's and the other half at John Smith's," presumably in the barns belonging to these two gentlemen. Afterw^ards all services were held "at Thomas Karr's barn."

The Congregational Church was organized Oct. 30, 1771; this was the "standing order" or parish church, remaining such until the dissolution of church and state. It is very probable that a Presbyterian society was organized in town the following May, but they never erected an}" meeting-house here. The town records show there were here at least 56 male members of this denomination in 1781.

After two years discussion and contention as to which side of the river the church should be located on, it was raised, April 27, 1768, near the school house at the Center. This building stood until 1869, when it was taken down. It was not completed for several years after it was erected, but was occupied as a place of worship as soon as boarded and shingled. In August, 1769, the "pew-ground" was sold at a "vendue" and the avails used toward completing the house.

24 HISTORICAL.

Appropriations were also made each year for tlie purpose. The names of the purchasers at that time were Samuel Blodgett, Wm. Gilchrist, Robert Gilmore, Capt. James Karr, Deacon Thomas Karr, Job Kidder, Joseph Little, Capt. John Mack, Daniel McFarland, Samuel McFarland, Asa Pattee, Samuel Richards, Benj. Stearns and Moses Wells.

The second house ot worship in town was erected in 1815 and 1816, being- dedicated July 3, 1816. This was a large building with galleries on three sides and had a bell. It stood very near, or on the present site of Samuel M. Christie's house. Services were held in this house two-thirds of the time, the other thiid in the old house at theCeuter.

The third house of worship erected for this society M^as built in 1838. This was the one occupied by the Methodists, and which was struck by lightning and burned. This was erected with the hope of encouraging more preaching at the Center village, or -of establishing a separate parish which should give them sanctuary privileges every Sabbath, but their desires were not realized, and in 1842 the house was sold for the use of the Methodists.

During the pastorate of Rev. Isaac Willej^ and largely- through his influence, the present church edifice was erected at a cost of about $2,500 besides time and labor rendered by members. It was dedicated in October, 1845, since which time all services ol this denomination have been held at this house. Twenty-fight pews were added in 1860. Stained glass memorial windows have since been put in, and the church extensiv^ely remodelled. The walls have also been recently frescoed. The organ is the gift of Miss Mary Had-

HISTORICAL. 25

ley, in memory of her brother, Deacon Alvin Hadley, who tilled the office of deacon for 44 years.

A parsonao^e, costing about |2,700 was built in 1870, and a chapel and vestry erected in 1875, at about the same cost.

Rev. James Currier was the first settled preacher. He came in 1769 and was formally settled as pastor in 1771, being ordained Oct. 30, the day the church was organized. A tract of land was reserved by the proprietors for the use of the first settled minister who should remain; he was also to receive £40 a year for the first five years, £45 the next three, and £50 a year after eight years; this salary to be paid one-half in corn and one-half in labor. Mr. Currier remained but three years, a short period for those days, and was then dismissed by the town and the society, probably because he was intemperate in his habits. For several years no regular pastor was settled over the church, but Dec. 27, 1781, Rev. Cornelius Waters was ordained and installed. He was a successful and true shepherd, but, unlike Mr. Cur- rier, was thought by some to be too strict. He was granted dismission at his own request, May 4, 1795, after a ministry of fourteen years.

The loose element of the church had caused R(v. Mr. Waters' resignation, but now the better members realized their loss. The leaders of the opposition withdrew all sup- port and after three years were expelled. There had also been much contention between the Congregational and the Presbyterian societies, but now the Christians of the two societies humbled themselves and observed a day of fasting

and praj^er. The result was a "plan of union" between these two churches, adopted Dec. 29, 1801, when they became one organization under the name of the Presbyteri- an-Congregational Church of Goffstown.

Upon the adoption of this plan, a call was extended to Mr. David Lawrence Morrill "to settle with us in the work of the gospel ministry," and he was accordingly ordained March 3, 1802. Mr. Morrill's voice failed him and he resigned his charge and closed his labors Nov. 4, 1809, (see personal sketch of his life in another chapter).

No other pastor was settled until 1820, although preach- ing was sometimes had and opportunities made by the town and the society for that purpose. In 1816, an ecclesiastical society was organized for the support of Congregational worship, called the Religious Union Society, incorporated Dec. 11, 1816. In the spring and summer of 1819, the place was blessed with a very powerful revival under the preaching of Rev. Abel Manning. Sixty-eight were i-eceived into the church that year.

Benjamin H. Pitman was ordained pastor October 18, 1820, for five years. His successor was Rev. Henry Wood. Mr. Wood was a total abstinence man, who found a wide field for labor here. Soon after his nrrival temperance prin- ciples were established by the chuich. Mr. Wood was also a spiritual man and 162 members were added to the church during his pastorate, which lasted until Nov. 29, 1831. Rev. David Stowell, his successor, was ordained the day follow- ing, and the revival then in progress continued. He was fol- lowed by Rev. Isaac Willej', who came herefrom the church

HISTOEICAL. 27

in Rochester, and remained here nearly seventeen years, dur- ing which time he did excellent service for the church and society. Rev. Elias H. Richardson was settled in 1854, remaining about two and a half years. Rev. John W. Ray was acting pastor for ten years following 1857, but declined settlement. liev. Samuel F. Gerould was installed pastor Feb. 4, 1869, remaining several years. He has been suc- ceeded by Rev. James E. Odlin, Rev. Mr. VVentworth, who had a very successful pastorate, and by Rev. H. B. McCart- ney, the present pastor, who came during the winter of 1903-'04.

The present membership of this society is about 220. There is a strong Christian Endeavor Society which is an important auxiliarj^ to the effective work of the church. The church property is valued at $7,500, and the parsonage, at 12,200.

BAPTIST CHURCH

Previous to the year 1802, there had existed for several years in this town a branch of the Baptist Church at Hop- kinton, but in that year an independent church was formed, including in its membership residents of Goffstown, Bow and Duubarton. This organization was maintained until March 18, 1820, when it was dissolved and upon the same day the present church was organized with a membership of thirty- four, includiug several persons who presented letters from the church in Londonderry, in this State, and Haverhill and Gloucester in Mass.

This church had no pastor until June 29, 1822, when a

28 HISTORICAL.

call was extended to Elder Gibson, and his services secured.

The present house of worship was dedicated July 2, 1834, previous to which time, the services had been held at the sev- eral houses ol the members, in school houses, or in the old East meeting-house when that was not occupied by the Con- grej^ationalists.

Several interesting revival seasons have been enjoyed, when large numbers were added to the church. This church maybe said to be the mother of first; the Dunbarton church, formed Nov. 27, 1828, when thirteen members were dismissed for that purpose; the Amherst church, formed May 28, 1829, when nine members were dismissed; the Amoskeag church (in Manchester), formed July 26, 1835, taking ten members of this society; and a second independent church, formed at the same place, for which forty members were dis- missed Dec. 29, 1836.

A long list ol pastors has followed Rev. Mr. Gibson, remaining from one to five years. Since 1871, when Rev. James W. Poland succeeded Rev. John S. Haradon, April 1, the pastors have been as follows: Revs. J. VV. Poland, 1871- '75; John H. Nichols, 1877-'83; Edward T. Lyford, 1883- '89; Willard Packard, 1889-'92; J. A. Bailey, 1892-1901; J. L. Peacock, 1901-'03; and Rev. Clias. T. Reekie, who has served the church since August 1, 1903. The present mem- bership of this society numbers thirty-nine.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCHES

Grasmere Church— In 1841, a Miss Parker began preach- ing at the old church at Goffstown Center and at school

HISTORICAL. 29

houses in various parts of the town. She made many con- versions whom she advised to organize into a Methodist church. Accordingly arrangements for a Methodist meeting^ were made which was held in the new church at the Center in the fall of 1842. The meetings continued several days, a number of persons were baptized, and the society organized. The two men who had purchased the church editice, sold the pews to various individuals, and the services of Rev. Mr. Smart of Concord were secured until the next session of the New Hampshire Conference. Rev. Samuel S. Mathews was then appointed, remaining one 3'ear, during which time his services were attended with good success; at the end of the year he reported sixty-five members. Until 1850, regular pastors were appointed and the church prospered generally. From 1850 to 1858, Goffstown was supplied by students from the Biblical Institute, among whom were Edwin W. Parker and Stephen L. Baldwin, both of whom became prominent in mission fields. For two or three \'ears follow- ing 1858, no regular services were maintained, but beginning 1861, students were again employed, through the efforts of Harvey Stearns, Thos. Sargent, Daniel G. Davis and others. Rev. J. H. Hillman, who preached in 1863, reported an increase from twenty-six to forty-six members. Under the charge of Elbridge Bradford, 1873 and 1874, the church was revived and strengthened.

On August 18, 1877, during the pastorate of J. M. Bean, the church was struck by lightning and totally destroyed. Although there was no insurance, a new church costing .f2,500 was erected before the close of the vear, and dedi-

The Second Methodist Episcopal Church— Located at Goffstown village, was organized October 24, 1887, b\^ the following persons: J. E. Robbins, Presiding Elder; Rev. L. R. Danforth, Homer E. Grady, Mr. and Mrs. Dan'l G. Davis, Mr. and Mrs. James H. Lewis, Mr. and Mrs. Henry F. Mar- tin, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac J. I'aige, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Whit- temore, Gilman Woodbury and Mrs. Philip D. Stark.

. The church edifice, situated on No. Mast street, was erected in 1889, and is valued at |3,000. This society has been served since its organization by the same pastors as the society at Grasmere.

ST. MATTHEWS CHURCH

An Episcopal Church was in existence in this town dur- ino; the 19th century, but the date of its oroanization is unknown. It was always small, and had become extinct before the organization of the present parish, which was in 1866. Rev. vS. Y. Compton was the first rector, services being held in a public hall.

The corner-stone of the present church edifice was laid in the spring of 1868, by the late Rev. James H. Eames, D. D., of Concord, at the residence of Bishop Chase. During the same year, regular divine services were discontinued. The church building was erected mainly through the liberalit}^ of friends in the diocese and in Boston and New York.

Services were first held in the new church in January, 1870. In the year 1874, the parish became a mission in charge of Rev. G. Brinley Morgan, from which time services have been held without interruption, under the successful ministrations of Rev. W. S. Whitcomb, Rev. H. A. Remick, etc.

St. Matthew's Church edifice was erected in 1866 but was not wholly completed until somewhat later. The first clergyman in residence was the Rev. George Brinley Morgan, who began his labors here July 12th, 1874, and continued in charge a little over two years. The Rev. Walter Scott Whitcomb was the next in(?umbent, he being in charge about five years; the Rev. Wm. H. Cutler who was in charge about a year. He was followed by Rev. Herbert A Remick, who re- mained four years; and Rev. John Henry Sellers, who began

32 HISTOKICAL.

to officiate in 1888 and continued work for about one year. Mr. Sellers was the last resident clergyman. Since 1889 the services have been carried on by clergvmen from Manches- ter, first by the rector of Grace Church. The Rev. Henry E. Cooke and his curates, the Rev. F. M. Garland, and Rev. E. Jay Cooke, the Rev. Wm. N. Bailey, and by the Rev. A. A. V. Binnington, and later, beginning in the year 1898, by the Rev. W. Northey Jones, also rector of Grace Church and his curate, the Rev. Charles R. Bailey. Beginning January 1st, 1903, the Rev. Charles R. Baile}' ceased to have any connection with Grace Church, Manchester, and became on that date, rector of St. Andrew's Church of the same city, with the charge of St. Matthew's, Goffstown. This arrange- ment is being continued at the present time (1905). St. Matthews Church has a fine location on North Mast street. The organization is entirely free from debt and is in a pros- perous condition. Among recent improvements may be mentioned the installation of electric lights, cushions for the pews, a C(nnplete set of Altar furniture in brass and a fine pipe organ. This last is a gift in menjoryof a former communicant, Frank Johnson, presented by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Rodney Johnson.

EDUCATIONAL ITEMS

The early inhabitants of Goffstown were not disting- uished for their attachments to educational interests, among themselves, or in the community at large. It can show a much larger list of graduates from the bloody battle-fields of the Revolution, and subsequent wars, than from early in- stitutions of learning.

The first money designed to be appropriated to the em- ployment of a school-teacher was used for the purchase of gunpowder and lead. The early settlers in carrying on their lumbering operations, needed all the help available, and when hunting in the fall they must take the boys with them, so the latter seldom saw the inside of a school-room, and Dillingsworth's spelling-book looked more formidable to them than the black bear or the tawny catamount. These boys became strong, practical men yet not fully realiz- ing the advantages of education, they considered they were discharging their whole duty to the succeeding generation by giving them a little better opportunity for education than they themselves enjoyed.

Yet, notwithstanding these disadvantages, the genera- tions of which we are speaking present some examples of a most extraordinary business talent. In fact for enterprise and business, the men of Goffstown have always occupied a front rank. They looked always to the main chance, and theshortest cut to reach it. Pretension, show and charlant- ing never prevailed here. This distrust of the utility of new

34 HISTORICAL.

thiDo-s, though mainly a praiseworthy trait, has sometimes afforded considerable amusement. The story is told of those who were opposed to having the meeting house warmed by astove, how they perspired on the hist Sabbath after it was put up, and how rapidly they cooled off when they discov- ered there had been no fire kindled in it during the day, and the stove had never been connected with the funnel. Before this fact was known they became so heated and were so sleepy that the preaching did them no good.

The epidemic of the Salem witchcraft barely entered the town. There were arrests made of two women for bewitch- ing two men. One was tried before Esq. McGregor, and the other before Dr. Gove and Esq. Dow, but both, to the honor of the intelligent magistrates, were acquittfd.

The condition of the schools in town at the present time compare favorably with other towns under similar condi- tions. The village maintains an independent school district, and supports a successful high school. The town schools number eleven, with a combined attendance ol around 180 scholars. The names of the several schools now in opera- tion, outside of the village, are: the Mountain School, the Shirley Hill School, Kennedy Hill School, Mast Road School, in the East Part, Tebbetts Hill School, Grasmere Primary, Grasmere Grammar, Pattee Hill School. Parker's School and Paige Hill School.

INDEPENDENT S(^HOOL DISTRICT.

This district has approximately the same area as the Goffstown Village Precinct, and operates its schools entirely

HISTORICAL. 35

independent of the surroundincr portion of the town. The schools consist of a High school, Grammar school, and In- termediate, Higher Primary, and Lower Primary grades. These are all held in the village school building which was erected in 1874, and enlarged in 1888, at an expense of $3500. This building contains five large rooms, with a li- brary, and other smaller rooms. The library contains about 300 volumes, valued at |350 ; the valuation of the school building is $12,000.

The high school, under the care of efficient principals has made steady and rapid advances in its courses and scholar- ship. This is not a college preparatory school since it does not teach Greek, but it is a "credited school."

The following is nearly a complete list of the principals of this school since it has been in operation : Mr, Mclutire, James Woodbury, Chas. H. Jones, Frank McHutchins, Herbert Remick, Miss Bessie Brackett, J. L. Kenestou, E. R. Pearse, James Currau, J. A. McDougall, Clarence Crooks, H. H. Stark, Henry B. Stearns, Ralph M. Barton, and Walter B. Pierce, the present principal.

Last year the school was enlarged, and a second assis- tant added. At present about fifty students are in attend- ance. Mr. Pierce is assisted by Miss Amanda Seymore, of Salem, Mass., and Miss Edith Seeton, of Goffstown. Mrs. Mae C. Poore is the teacher of Music in the different grades of the independent district school.

The Grammar school, under the instruction of Miss Laura Blood, of New Boston, is attended by 35 or 40 pupils. The Intermediate grade is taught by Miss Nina L. Kendall,

36 HISTORICAL.

of So. Strafford, Vt., with about the same attendance. Miss Mary A. Warren has charge of the Higher Primary, and Miss Ina L. Tuttle, of Manchester, teaches the Lower Pri- mary grade. These two grades have a combined average attendance of about 75 pupils.

ST. ANSELM'S COLLEGE

In 1887, the Benedictines of St. Mary's Abbey, Newark, N. J., purchased in Goffetow'n, on the VVorthley road, what was known as the Worthley Farm, a property of about 70 acres. They immediately began the building of a college that was destroyed by fire before it had been opened to receive students. The present edifice, built of brick, with handsome granite trimmings, is 184 feet in length, and 60 feet in depth, with a front main projection of 40x20 feet. Situated on a plateau, about 300 feet above the city of Manchester, N. H., the college commands a magnifi- cent view in every direction. To the east, is Rock Rimmon, of legendary lore. To the west, are the (Incanoonac Moun- tains with Shirley Hill, a well known summer resort. Towards the north, within sight, run the Piscatognog and Merrimac rivers, botii of Indian name and fame. In the course of time, adjacent property has been acquired, notably

mSTOEICAL. 37

in 1904, the Emerson Worthly farm, on which were erected several minor buildings, the chief one being the studio, a structure 55x35 feet.

There are on the premises, two artesian wells dug, one at the depth of 160, the other of 182 feet, both yielding a supply of the purest water.

The number of instructors at present is 18; the average number of students is about 100. The course of studies comprises a preparatory, commercial and classical depart- ment. The students are divided into minims, juniors and seniors, each section having special study and recreation halls.

For the last four years, the Director has been Rt. Rev. Abbott Hilary Pfraeugle, 0. S. B. D. D., and the disciplina- rian for many years Rev. P. Joseph, O. S. B. M. A.

Aug. 30, 1889, the Benedictine Fathers were incorpor- ated by an act of the N. H. legislature to be known as "The Order of St. Benedict of New Hampshire." By an act of legislature, approved February 28th, 1895, St. Anselm's College was empowered to confer the usual college degrees.

Following are the members of the Faculty, all residents and enrolled voters:

In the collegiate department, Rev. P. Anselm, Prefect of Studies; the Fathers Aloysius, Frederick and Vincent, O. S. B. In the academic department, the Fathers Boniface, Wil- liam, Fidelis and Dominic. In the commercial department, the Fathers Joseph, Robert and Francis. In the prepara- tory department, the Fathers Lawrence, Anthony, Thomas and Ignatius.

38 HISTORICAL.

In the art department, drawino^, painting and music, Rev. P. Bonananture and others.

The house and farm work is done by a dozen ol Brothers, all members of the Order and most of them voters, the Brothers John, Leander, Alphonse, Dominic and Robert. There were in 1904, 22 voters.

COUNTY FARM

The Hillsborough County Farm occupies a beautiful location near Grasmere Junction, on the line of both the Boston and Maine, and the electric railroad. Previous to 1867, this location was occupied by this same institution, but was burned in Nov. 18GG. A building that had been erected lor a Soldier's Hospital, in Manchester, was then moved to this site and occupied until the following summer, or fall, when the institution was removed to Wilton, where it remained until October, 1895.

This site was repurchased in 1893, the buildings erected in 1894 and 1895, being completed the latter year before being occupied.

There are to this institution three entirely distinct branches, occupying separate buildings. These are the House of Correction, the Alms House and the Insane Hos- pital. There are also eight other buildings, including the

HISTORICAL. 3^

superintendent's house, with accommodations for attend- ants; a contagious hospital, laundry and boiler-house, and general farm buildings, together with a general repair shop, including a blacksmith's shop, shoe-shop, carpenter's shop, and paiut shop. The original cost of this institution was $175,000; additions to the value of |25,000 have been made, making its present valuation |200,000. A complete and independent system of water works is maintained for supplying the farm for domestic purposes and for protection. The supply is brought from springs and is forced to a reser- voir 263 feet above them by a pump, having a capacity of 500 to 600 gallons per minute. The reservoir is 175 feet above the farm buildings, which gives sufficient hydrant pressure for ample fire protection.

The average number of inmates here during the year 1904 (not including attendants, nurses or paid help), was in the almshouse, incurable insane, feeble minded, idiotic and epileptics, 368; and of prisoners at the house of correction, 45; making a total of 413. The institution is under the supervision of Horatio K. Libby.

PROFESSIONAL MEN

LAWYERS.

We ^ive below a list of lawyers who have practiced law in this town. Previous to the arrival of the first regular practitioner most of the legal writiugs were done by "Es- quires" who filled important places in the early towns.

John Gove graduated at Dartmouth College in 1792, after which he read law with William Gordon, and practiced in this town until 1803. Thomas Jameson, Dartmouth, 1797, read law with John Harris and practiced law here until 1813. Josiah Forsaith, also a Dartmouth graduate, read law with J. B. Upham and Caleb Ellis, and practiced here until 1823. Jonathan Aiken, Dartmouth 1813, was a student of Lawyer Forsaith, whom he succeeded nntil 1838. David Steele was the next to locate in this town, having graduated from Dartmouth in 1818. He remained here until his death. Others who were here lor short periods prior to 1840 were John H. Slack, Chas. F. Gove, Samuel Butter- field, and Geo. W. Morrison; the latter removed to Manches- ter in 1839. Most of these men were Dartmouth College graduates.

John Steele read law with his father, David, and com- menced practice here with him, in 18G1. Two ^-ears later he entered the N. H. cavalry and served until the close of the war as a first lieutenant. He returned to Goffstown and died in 1869.

Samuel Upton, the last practicing lawyer in town, was

HISTORICAL. 41

very successful at the bar, and filled many prominent public positions. He obtained an education through his own un- tiring exertions, being dependent upon his own recourses. He read law with Butterfield & Hamlin at Andover, and later with the Clarks, in Manchester, and was admitted to the bar in 1854. He took an active interest in politics, and during the Civil War was appointed by President Lincoln a Commissioner of the Board of Eurolement for the Second Congressional District. In 1875 Mr, Upton removed to Iowa on account of his wife's health. In 1888 he returned to New Hampshire, and settled in Goffstown where he opened an office, as well as in Manchester. He remained in practice here lor many years during which time he took a prominent part in the affairs of the Congregational Church, and died in November, 1902, after a long life of influence and usefulness.

PHYSICIANS

Dr. Jonathan Gove is considered to have been the first practicing physician in Goffstown, or in this section of the state. Dr. David L. Morrill was, for many years, an able practitioner here. Other physicians have been: Dr. Webster, Dr. Cushing, John and Ebenezer Stearns, Dr. Walker, Dr. Wrights, Dr. Reynolds, Dr. Crosby, Dr. Ziba Adams, Daniel and John Little, Dr. Flanders, Dr. A. F. Carr,and Dr. Henry E. Newhall.

Those now in practice here are: Drs. Cbas. F. George, Frank Blaisdell, E. B. Sweatt, located at Grasmcre, and Maurice Stark.

DAVID LAWRENCE MORRILL

EX-GOVERNOR OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

David Lawrence Morrill wbb born in Eppinp^, June 10, 1772. He never attended college but studied theology with Rev. Jesse Remington of Candia. He accepted a call to settle over the Union Presbyterian-Congregational Church in this town, where he was ordained and installed March 3, 1802, remaining pastor until 1811, when his voice failed for the time and he resigned.

In 1808 he received the degrees of A. M. and M. D.. from Dartmouth College, and in 1825 the degree LL. D. from the University of Vermont. He continued to reside in the town for many years after his dismissal, living at his old home- stead, which is still standing, on Mast Road, at Grasraere. He practiced medicine, for which he had prepared early. He remained moderater and clerk of the church until a pastor was chosen to succeed him, which was after an interval of about eleven years.

He represented the town in the Legislature from 1810 to 1816, inclusive, the latter year being chosen Speaker of the House. The same year he was elected to the United States Senate for six years from March 4, 1817. He was elected Governor of the state, serving during 1824 and 1825.

Dr. Morrill removed to Concord in the autumn of 1831, where he engaged in the book trade, and where he died Jan- uary 27, 1849, a much loved and respected man.

GOFFSTOWN VILLAGE WATER WORKS.

The necessity of better protection against fire, and the need of pure water for domestic purposes were both felt for several years before any legal action was taken toward es- tablishing the present system. At the annual meeting of the Precinct in April, 1890, the sum of |250 was raised to defray the expense of a preliminary survey to ascertain the most available means of supply, and the probable expense of erecting and maintaining the neccessary system.

Geo. P. Hadley, who was employed to make the investi- gation, examined several systems and locations with special reference to the purity of water, distance from the village, quantity of supply, and elevation. His report favored the gravity system, and recommended constructing a reservoir on Whittle Brook, between the Uncanoonucs, about 8,100 feet away from and 200 feet above the village.

A charter was obtained from the Legislature in 1891, and work was begun on May 6th. The gate was closed the 4th of the following November, and in 31 days thereservoir, having a capacity of 2,250,000 gallons, was filled. The pipes were connected seventeen days later.

Forty hydrants are connected with the system, and are located in all parts of the village, giving to the same, with the aid of efficient fire apparatus, excellent fire protection.

The entire cost of installing the system was |41,978.67.

The present board of water commissioners consists of Geo. W. Colby, Samuel Upton, Chas. G. Barnard, Otis F. Sumner, and John G. Dodge. Otis F. Sumner is Treasurer.

The electric lip;hting power statiou of the MaDchester Traction Electric Light and Power Company, located on the Plscataquog River, at the falls between Goffwtown village and Grasmere, was started here about six years ago. The power has 50-feet head, and 2200 horse-power is available. The current produced supplies lights for Goffstown village, Grasmere and the County Farm, and the balance goes to the city. L. J. Verrell is superintendent of the Company : Joseph Griffin is now in charge of this plant.

ROGERS FREE LIBRARY.

The Rogers Free Public Library was founded in 1888 by Miss Lucy S. Rogers, of Boston, upon the donation of about 700 volumes. It was then established in the town house, which was extensively remodeled the following year and the present rooms fitted up by making an addition to the build- ing. The number ot volumes has increased until there are now 3300 volumes, which constitute a very wide assortment of books, covering the latest fiction, historical works, works of science and art, and practical books of reference. About 7000 loans are made from its stacks each year to citizens of

Census of Goffstown"1903

The populatiou ot the town of Goffstown has been arranged in families where that arrangement has been possible. In these families, in addition to the resident liviog members, the names of the non-resident members are included. It should be borne in mind that this plan does not include the names of all former residents of this town, as the names of the non-residents appear only when one or both of the parents are still living in the town. After the name of each non-resident will be found the present address, when such address has been given to us. Non-resi- dents are indicated by the (*).

When a daughter in a family has married, her name taken in marriage appears after her giv^en name in parenthe- sis, the name preceded by a small m, thus: (m ).

Following the names of the population is the occu- pation, postofRce address, or rural free delivery route. To designate the occupations we have used the more common abbreviations and contractions, as follows: P'armer — far; carpenter— car; railroad service — R R ser; student, a member of an advanced institution of learning — stu; pupil, a member of a lower grade of schools (including all who have reached the age of five years)— pi; housework— ho; laborer— lab; physician and surgeon— phy & sur; clergyman— clerg; mer- chant— mer; teacher — tr; blacksmith — blk; clerk — cl; book- keeper— bk kpr; lawyer — law; mechanic-mech; machinist- mach; engineer-eng; maker — mkr; worker — wkr; work — wk; shoe shop work — shoe op; cotton or woolen mill operatives — mill op; weaver — weav; spinner — spin; electrician — elec; painter — ptr; carriage work — car wk; dress maker— dr mkr; insurance — ins; traveliug salesman, or commercial traveler — sales, or coml trav; music teacher — mus tr; teamster — team; lumberman — lumb; attendant — atten.

This Census was taken expressly for this work during January and February, 1905, by Roscoe A. Weston, of Readfield, Maine.

GOFFSTOWN POSTOFFICE.

When no address is given, GOFFSTOWN P. O. is under- stood. For other addresses we have used the follov\ing ab- breviations:—Grasmere postofflce, Gras; Manchester, Manch; Rural Free Delivery routes, the number of the route.
