INTKODUCTION.
The seven years, 1839 to 1835, covered by this volume,
was a period of comparative indifference to progress, though
the spirit of the new order of activity was being felt. The
inventory for 1829 gave 196 taxpayers; that for 1835, 331,
not including in either case the nonresidents. The taxes for
the first year amounted to $932.01 (state, $107.60; county,
$73.60; town, $750.81); for the last year, state, $173.50;
county, $27.39; town, $853.62; total, $1,054.71.
If the increase of population and business was slight, it
could be already seen that it trended towards the settlement
about the Falls, which awakened feelings of jealousy and
rivalry on the part of those living in other parts of the town
An attempt to repair the old meetinghouse and make of it
a townhouse was voted down by those from "the new vil-
lage" in 1832. Two years later the matter again came up
for consideration and was rejected, but in 1836 a vote was
taken to that effect.
Boating on the Merrimack may be said to have reached its
greatest volume during this period. Frederick G. Stark was
agent of the boating company the entire time, or from 1822
to 1837. His books show that for the month of October,
1831, the river traffic amounted to $1,598.65. The quickest
round trip from the Piscataquog river to Boston ever made
on the river was in 1833, when Samuel Hall, John Eay, and
Joseph M. Rowell performed the feat in four days. In 1833
the Proprietors of Amoskeag Canal were first taxed for
$18,000, and this was repeated with different amounts the
two years following. It seems that this tax was not forth-
coming, for in 1834 the town voted to collect the same,
though there is no record to show the result.
13
14 INTRODUCTION.
In 1834 the ten years' controversy over building the
"Mammoth Eoad" through this town reached its climax, the
court deciding that the road should be built. In one year
(1833) the expense of fighting this highway amounted to
more than the state, county, school, and highway taxes.
The cotton manufacture, started at Amoskeag in 1809 by
Benjamin Pritchard and three brothers named Ephraim,
David, and Eobert Stevens, with changes in management
from time to time, continued as a private enterprise, with
varying results, until July 15, 1831, when the Amoskeag Man-
ufacturing Company was incorporated with a capital of one
million dollars. The incorporators were Oliver Dean, Ira
Gay, Willard Sayles, Larned Pitcher, Lyman Tiffany, and
Samuel Slater. Mr. Tiffany was made the first president.
Mr. Gay was chosen clerk and Oliver Dean agent and treas-
ure j*.
In 1835 this company came into possession of the Isle
of Hooksett Canal Companj', the Bow Canal Company, and
the Union Locks Company, and the following year the
Hooksett Manufacturing Company was acquired. That year
the first brick mill upon the Merrimack was built at Hook-
sett from material made in the yards close by. The increase
of this new factor in the development extended in the years
following.
The smallpox breaking out in the household of Col. Josiah
Stowell in 1834, at a special town meeting called to be seen
what could be done, it was voted to establish a pesthouse.
There is nothing to show that this vote was carried out more
than to quarantine the home of Colonel Stowell. The dis-
ease was brought from Lowell by one William Davis, who
recovered. Four persons, two of whom were the aged parents
of Mrs. Stowell, a young woman named Mary Brown, and
a baby died.
The town continued to hold money derived from the sale
of the ministerial lot, and voted that the interest be paid for
preaching, the sum to be divided equally between the Pres-
byterian and Methodist societies.
INTRODUCTION. 15
Tythingmen were chosen through the entire period. No
firewards were chosen in 1833 and 1834. For the first time
in the records of the town no poundkeeper was elected in
1834, and there was no one in 1835. No overseer of the poor
was chosen in these years. The last sale of paupers was in
1832. The first auditor was chosen in 1835.
In 1829 the matter of schools again came to the front and
the town voted to have a literary fund proportioned among
the districts and authorized each to choose its own commit-
tee.
In 1795 a movement was started to establish a social
library in town, and the first meeting was held in Decem-
ber of that year. January 1, 1796, the first books were
bought. This association continued for nearly forty years,
when it ceased in 1833, the same year in which the first free
public library was established at Peterborough. The Derry-
field Social Library was the second in the state, one at Dover
antedating it by a little over two years.
The following lists comprise the town's leading officers of
this period:

The slow growth of the town is shown by the returns of
the census: 1775, 285; 1790, 362; 1800, 557; 1810, 615;
1820, 761; 1830, 887; 1840, 3,325; nearly all of the rapid
increase in the last decade having been made in the years
1838 and 1839.
