For many years the prominent business men
of Burlington, believers in life insurance, had
been considering the drainage made on the
finances of the State by payments of large sums
of money abroad, to be retained until such
times as it should come back in payment of
death claims. Consequently, the following
named gentlemen obtained a charter for the

Vermont Life Insurance Company,

October 28th, 1868:

Torrey E. Wales, Lemuel B. Platt, Samuel
Huntington, James A. Shedd, Russell S. Taft, +
Rodney S. Wires, Nathaniel Parker, Jo D. =j|\hi
Hatch, George F. Edmunds, Omri A. Dodge, i]
F. C. Kennedy and Lawrence Barnes. Aa iy

The Company was organized Jan. Ist, 1869,
with a cash capital of $50,000, and with Rus-
sell S. Taft as President, and Warren Gibbs,
Secretary. The capital was soon after in-
creased to $100,000. During the depression
in business which soon followed. the company ceased to push for new business,
but more than held its own, gaining steadily each year, until the assets of the
company are now nearly $250,000. :

The directors of the company now are: Torrey E. Wales, Samuel
Huntington, James A. Shedd, Russell S. Taft, Nathaniel Parker, Jo D.
Hatch, F. C. Kennedy, Lawrence Barnes, Daniel Roberts, William G. Shaw,
William W- Henry, L. L. Lawrence, Wm. A. Crombie, Edward Barlow, Joel
H. Gates, J. C. Dunn, B. B. Smalley, Theo. A. Hopkins. C. M. Spaulding,
Warren Gibbs, Elihu B. Taft, and Edwin Wheelock.

The company issues every desirable form of Life and Endowment
policies, all non-forfeiting in one way or another, mostly, and substantially,
in accordance with the Massachusetts non-forfeiting law of 1861. The
company also issues ‘‘ term policies,” for seven years or less, at lower rates of
premiums. The popular “ Installment Bond” is also issued by this company,
guaranteeing the most ready money, and the full amount in case of death.

Good agents wanted in prominent localities at all times. Please cor-
respond with Home Office for Agencies, for Bonds and Policies, and for
further information if there is no agent near you.

‘ WARREN GIBBS, President.
cC.R. TURRILL, Secretary.

to judge of his conduct, the bad will censure and obstruct him by malevolence, and the good
sometimes by mistake.” —SAMUEL JOHNSON.

In presenting to the public the “‘ Gazetteer and Business Directory of Chit-
” we desire to return our sincere thanks to a// who have kindly
aided in obtaining the information it contains, and rendered it possible to
present it in the brief space of time in which it is essential such works should
be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the editors and managers of
the county papers, for the uniform kindness they have evinced in calling pub-

lic attention to our efforts, and for essential aid in furnishing material for the

tenden County,

work. We have also found valuable aid in the writings of the various authors
in Miss Hemenway’s “Historical Magazine ;” ‘“Thompson’s Vermont ;”
““Deming’s Vermont Officers ;” Hoskins “ History of Vermont ;’ Hall's
“Early History of Vermont ;” the “Documentary History of New York ;”
Lanman’s “ Dictionary of Congress ;” Palmer’s “‘ History of Lake Champlain ;”
“Pioneer History of the Champlain Valley ;’ “Letters of John A. Gra-
ham ;” in the reports of the Adjutant-General and State School Superintend-
ent; F. W. Beers & Co.’s “Atlas of Chittenden County ;” and also the
geological reports of Hitchcock and Hagar. Our thanks are also due to the
clergy throughout the county, and to President M. H. Buckham, Prof. Good-
rich, Dr. A. P. Grinnell, T. H. Canfield, J. W. Hickok, Capt. William Anderson,
Capt. Dan Lyon, T. P. W. Rogers, Lawrence Barnes, Henry Loomis, Fred-
erick Smith, Gen. T. S. Peck, J. E. Brinsmaid, The Fletcher Free Library,
C. F. Wheeler, H. E, Brown, Carolus Noyes, L. A. Drew, Charles E. Allen,
Mrs. L. M. Clapp, Miss Jennie Stacy, and Miss C. E. Collins, of Burlington ;
A. C. Slater, of Essex ; Isaiah Dow, Joseph Landon, Hon. Nahum Peck, and
W. K. Patrick, of Hinesburgh; D. B. Fay and F. C. Wilkins, of Williston,
and to many others throughout the county who have rendered valuable aid.

That errors have occurred in so great a number of names is probable ; and
that names have been omitted which should have been inserted is quite cer-
tain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence
and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book making. Of such
4 INTRODUCTION.

as feel aggrieved in consequence of errors or omissions, we beg pardon, and
ask the indulgence of the reader in noting such as have been observed in the
subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are found in the Zrraza, follow-
ing this Litroduction.

It was designed to give a brief account of all the church and other soci-
eties in the county, but owing, in some cases, to the negligence of those who
were able to give the necessary information, and in others, to the inability of
any one to do so, we have been obliged to omit special notices of a few.

We would suggest that our patrons observe and become familiar with the
explanations at the commencement of the Directory. The names it embraces,
and the information connected therewith, were obtained by actual canvass,
and are as correct and reliable as the judgment of those from whom they
were solicited render practicable. Each agent is furnished with a map of the
town he is expected to canvass, and he is required to pass over every road,
and call at every farm house and place of business in the town, in order to
obtain the facts from the individuals concerned wherever possible.

The margins have been left broad to enable any one to note changes oppo-
site the names.

The Advertisers represent many of the leading firms and business men of
this and other counties, and we most cheerfully commend them to the pat-
ronage of those under whose observation these pages may come.

We take this occasion to express the hope that the information found in
this book will not prove devoid of interest and value, though we are fully
conscious that the brief history of the county the scope of the work enables
us to give, is by no means an exhaustive one, and can only hope that it may
prove a nucleus and incentive to future historians, who will be the better able
to do full justice to the subject.

While thanking our patrons and friends generally for the cordiality with
which our efforts have been seconded, we leave the work to secure that favor
which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating public, hopinz they
will bear in mind, should errors be noted, that “he who expects a perfect
work to see, expects what ne’er was, is, nor yet shall be.”

1878, with perfect success. Next, Mr. Joseph Eaton, of Fairfield, who hada
cancer under his left ear, which had been treated a long time by a noted can-
cer doctor, without success, applied the remedy, which in ten days killed and
removed the cancer. The Doctor refers to Mr. Eaton. Many other removals of
cancers from the cheek, lips, nose, hands, breast, abdomen, &c., it is said, have
been effected completely. He has several times been called to Boston, where
he has applied his new treatment to‘cancer in the breast, successfully remov-
ing them. The doctor has large specimens preserved, which may be seen at
his office. He also removes wens, corns, moles, warts, &c.

connected with this peculair practice, combined with his other qualifications,
eminently fits him for successfully advancing the interests of the inventor. As

THE VERMONT STATE NorMAL SCHOOL, at Castleton, Rut. Co., is one of
the most beautifully located in the State. The yrounds and buildings are
admirably adapted for school purposes. Situated at the head of Seminary
street in this charming village, upon a slight elevation, they are at once re-
tired, yet easy of access, airy and healthful. The drainage of the grounds is
perfect, the ventilation of the buildings complete, having accommodations for
one hundred boarders and two hundred day pupils. (See cut on page 522.)
The present main building was first opened for the reception of pupils in 1830,
by the late Solomon Foote, since which time there has been a succession of
able principals and associate teachers, while many hundred cultured young
men and women have gone out from its halls upon a useful life. It became
a State Normal School in 1867, meeting with varying success under different
principals, until 1881, when it came under the permanent control of Capt.
Abel E. Leavenworth, entering upon a new era of prosperity. Principal
Leavenworth is well known in Chittenden County, as he was born in Charlotte,
fitted for college at the Hinesburgh Academy, and graduated from the Univers-
ity of Vermont. For five years before, and three years after the war of the
Rebellion, he was principal of the Hinesburgh Academy, where, aside from
fitting young men for college, he made a specialty of training teachers, many
of whom have done efficient work in the schools of the county. For many
years he was an officer of the County Teachers’ Association, contributing
largely towards its success during a period of twenty years. From Beeman
Academy, New Haven, he sent out eighty-nine teachers and graduated forty-
one in the several courses. While he was principal of the State Normal
School at Randolph, over two hundred graduates were commissioned to teach,
and over four hundred others received partial training. The first year at
Castleton has been one of marked success, seven counties having been repre-
sented in its membership. The railway and telegraph facilities of Castleton
are excellent, there being four passenger trains daily to and from Rutland,
eleven miles east, and two on each of the roads to Whitehall and Eagle Bridge,
west and south. The principal is ably seconded in his efforts to make this
a first-class school, by an efficient corps of teachers trained by himself in an-
other school, and having large and successful experience in Normal school
work and methods. Thus combining the advantages of healthful location,
ample accommodations, facility of access, and competent instructors, this
school cannot fail to command its legitimate share of patronage.

GHIPTENDEN COUNTY, VT,

connecting the now with the past.” It is indeed a bridge, over which
we may pass to the hallowed days of which we all love to hear,—a
passage whose every plank is the record of some noble life or deed, urging us
to emulate their virtues, or, at other points, warning us from the errors and
vices into which many have fallen. It is our purpose, then, to pass with the
reader over this bridge, connecting the prosperous present with the toil-laden
past of Chittenden County, involving also a cursory glance at the history of
its parent, the State. A hasty journey it must necessarily be, however,—a
mere superficial glance at the principal points of interest on the way, in which
it shall be our endeavor to present the truth, and to preserve many, or at
least some, facts which would otherwise soon become enshrouded in the
oblivion that surrounds but too many of the heroic deeds and sacrifices
attending the conception anc birth of the old democratic State of Vermont, a
territory that has no parallel in its peculiar beauties, revealed in the variety,
the majesty and exquisite loveliness of its scenery, and whose history estab-
lishes a just claim to its title of ‘‘ The Classic Ground of America.”

There are good reasons for believing that the first civilized people who
visited New England, were a colony of Norwegians, or Northmen, who
emigrated thither, according to the original Icelandic accounts of their voy-

 

ages of discovery, as follows :—

“In the spring of A. D. 986, Eric the Red, so named from the fact of his
having red hair, emigrated from Iceland to Greenland, and formed a settlement
there. In 994, Biarne, the son of Heriulf Bardson, one of the settlers who
accompanied Eric, returned to Norway, and gave an account of discoveries
he had made to the south of Greenland. On his return to Greenland, Leif,
the son of Eric, bought Biarne’s ship, and, with a crew of thirty-five men,
embarked on a voyage of discovery, A. D. tooo. After sailing some time to
the southwest, they fell in with a country covered with a slaty rock, and des-

titute of good qualities, and which, therefore, they called Pein (slate-
land). ‘They then continued southerly until they found a low flat coast, with
white sand cliffs, and immediately back, covered with wood, whence they
called the country AZarkland (wood- land). From here they sailed south and
west, until they arrived at a promontory which stretched to the east and north,
and sailing round it turned to the west, and sailing to the westward, passed
between an island and the mainland, and entering a bay through which flowed
a river, they concluded to winter there. Having landed, they built a house
to winter in, and called the place Lez/sbuthir (Leifs-booths). Soon after this,
they discovered an abundance of vines, whence they named the country
Vinland, or Wineland, which corresponds with the present country at the
head of Narragansett Bay, in Rhode Island.”

Subsequent to this came the discoveries of Columbus, in 1492; the Eng-
lish discoveries, in 1497, followed, during the same year, by the Portugese ;
the Spanish, in 1506, and finally came the French, in 1524, who sub-
sequently discovered the Gulf and River St. Lawrence, and first began
a colony upon it, whence they soon spread to the heart of the country,
to which they had an easy means of access by way of the great lakes,
whose waters head within a few miles of the tributaries of the Mississippi,
which flows across half the continent to the Gulf of Mexico. In a
few years they had explored this vast region, and established among the
savages missions and trading posts, first in the forests of Canada, than in the
West, and finally in New York and in the territory included within the pres-
ent State of Vermont.

In the meantime England had been pushing her explorations and discov-
es; but the French laid claim to nearly the whole country, confining the
English to a narrow strip of land along the Atlantic coast, thus transplanting
the jealousies and rivalries which had long made them enemies in the Old
World, to the New Continent. The French sought the alliance of the In-
dian tribes, and years of warfare followed, in which, however, the English at
last succeeded in gaining possession of a large amount of the land. The
first hostilities between them originated on William’s accession to the throne
of England, in 1689, which terminated in the peace of Ryswic, in 1697.
Queen Anne’s war, so-called, commenced in 1702. and continued to the
peace of Utretcht. in 1713. The third controversy was declared by George
II. in 1744, and continued until the preliminaries of peace were signed
between France and England, at Aix-la-Chapelle, in 1748. The last con-
flict between these powers, anterior to the American revolution, was formally
declared by Great Britain, in 1756, and was reciprocated the same year on
the part of France, and finally terminated by the capture of Montreal, in
September, 1760, when the whole Province of Canada was surrendered to
Great Britain.

During this period of the French wars, the territory now included within
the county was the chief point of rendezvous for the French and their Indian

allies, in their hostile excursions against the English settlements in the valley
of the Connecticut. It was through here they generally

tives and carried their plunder, their usual route both in going and re-
turning being along Missisquoi Bay and Winooski River, crossing the short
carrying place between the river and Mallett’s Bay. It was along here the
suffering captives from Deerfield, in the dead of winter, in 1704, were led on
their way to Canada; and here also was led the lad Enos Stevens, son of
Capt. Phineas Stevens, in 1748; and on the east shore of Missisquoi Bay, the
year previous, Mrs. Jemima Howe found her son Caleb perishing with hunger.
Early skirmishes took place, too, within the territory,—one as early as 1709, on
the Winooski, in which Liet. John Wells and John Burt were killed, followed
by another at the mouth of the river, where several of the French and Indians
were killed in turn. Upon this river, also, Capt. John Barnet lost his life in
a skirmish, in 1776. Indeed, the whole territory teems with tales and anec-
dotes of those days of bloodshed.

These early wars, however, led to the first settlement of the State by civil-
ized people. Samuel Champlain is supposed to have been the first to visit
the territory, having sailed up the lake he discovered, and which has since
borne his name, in 1609. In 1664, M. de Tracy, then Governor of
New France (the French possessions in America), entered upon the
work of erecting a line of fortifications from the mouth of the Riche-
lieu (Sorel) River into Lake Champlain. ‘The first year he constructed
three forts upon the river, and the next spring, 1665, he ordered Capt.
de La Motte to proceed up Lake Champlain and erect another fortress
upon an island which he designated. It was completed that same year and
named Fort St. Anne, and afterwards it was called Fort La Motte, trom the
name of its builder, and which in the end gave the name to the island on
which it stood. The remains of the fort are now to be seen, and the island
still bears the name. In 1690, a fort was built by Capt. de Narm,* at Chim-
ney Point, in Addison County, about which a thriving settlement soon sprang
up; but it was not until 1724, at Fort Dummer, that the first permanent set-
tlement was commenced, and the garrison of this fort were for several years
the only white inhabitants of the territory.

After the close of the last French war, in 1759-60, the settlement of the
country rapidly increased, as their old enemy, Canada, had been transformed
from a hostile to a friendly neighbor. Township charters were rapidly granted
by New Hampshire, under command of King George III., to whom the in-
habitants were only nominally subject, however, but obeyed only the decrees
of their own committees and conventions. At one of these conventions,
January 15, 1777, the New Hampshire Grants were declared to be an inde-
pendent State, ‘‘by the name, and forever hereafter to be called, known, and
distinguished by the name of New Connecticut, a/ias Vermont, etc.” The latter
name, derived from the French verd mont, or Green Mountains, it still re-
tains, and which has gathered about itself, through all the vicissitudes which

its sons have passed, a halo of glory that shall pass away only with the demise
of Time. Such, briefly, is the outline of Vermont’s history.

On February 11, 1779, the State was divided into two counties, the Green
Mountains forming the dividing line, the portion on the east being called
Cumberland, and that on the west Bennington County. Each county was
divided into two shires, that on the east into,Westminster and Newbury, and
Bennington and Rutland on the west. This division of counties remained
till the extra session of the legislature, in February, 1781, when the county of
Rutland was incorporated from Bennington, and Windsor and Orange Coun-
ties were incorporated from Cumberland, and the name of Cumberland altered
to Windham. Rutland County in turn extended through to the northern line
of the State for a period of four years, eight months and five days, during
which time the courts were held at Tinmouth. The State, then, on October
18, 1785, dismembered the old county, incorporating from it a new county,
called Addison, which in turn extended to the north line of the State, and
made the towns of Addison and Colchester half shires. But the connection
of Chittenden with Addison County only continued for the term of two years,
and Colchester had not the honor of holding the courts of that county but
one term. Before the next stated term, at Colchester, the county of Chit-
tenden, named in honor of Thomas Chittenden, the first governor of Vermont,
was set off from Addison and incorporated into a distinct county, October 22,
1787.* It then embraced all the territory between the north lines of Ferris-
burgh, Monkton, Bristol, Lincoln, and Warren, and the Province line, and was
bounded on the west by the west line of the State, which followed the deepest
channel of the lake, passing east of the Four Brothers, and west of Grand Isle
and Isle La Motte, and on the east by the west lines of Northfield, Montpelier,
Calais, Woodbury, Hardwick, and Greensborough, to the northwest corner
thereof, and then in the most direct course on town lines to the north line
of the State. But the population and business of the county increased to
such an extent that it soon became necessary that its turn should come to be
reduced in territory; and on November 5, 1792, a new county on the north
was incorporated, by the name of Franklin. The line that separated Chit-
tenden from Franklin County commenced “on the west line of Orange
County [as then established], at the northeast corner of Worcester; thence
westerly on the north line of Worcester, Stowe, Mansfield, Underhill, West-
ford, and Milton, to the waters of Lake Champlain; thence across to the
north of South Hero by the deepest channel between that and North Hero;
and thence on the west line of the State.” Still further deductions, however,

 

 

* As an error has crept into a great many local works, relative to the date of this incorporation, we quote the

following from Deming’s Vermont Officers, which clears up the apparent mystery: **Zadock Thompson, in
his history of Vermont, says, that Chittenden County was incorporated October 22, 1782, and Addison County
February 27, 1787. This 1s a mistake as to both counties, as will be seen by the following extract ofa letter from
Mr. Thompson to a friend, who had addressed him on the subject: ‘ While in Montpelier a few days since, I
was induced, by your suggestions, to examine the manuscript acts in the office of the Secretary of State, and I
there found that Addison County was incorporated October (8, 178s, and that Chittenden County was incorpo-
rated October 22, 1787.’ ””
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 37

have been made from the original limits: October 20, 1794, Starksboro
was annexed to Addison County ; November 9, 1802, the county of Grand
Isle was formed, and South Hero and adjacent islands were set off to form a
part of that county. In addition, the county of Jefferson (now Washington)
was incorporated November 1, 1810, and to form a part of which, the towns
of Mansfield, Stowe, Waterbury, Duxbury, Fayston, Waitsfield, Moretown,
Middlesex, and Worcester, were taken from Chittenden. In 1839, the west-
ern part of the town of Mansfield was annexed to the town of Underhill, and
re-annexed to the county of Chittenden.

Thus the county is situated at the present time, lying between lat. 44° 7'
and 44° 42’, and between long. 3° 41’ and 4° 14, bounded north by Frank-
lin and Lamoille Counties, east by Washington and Lamoille, south by Addi-
son, and west by the deepest channel of Lake Champlain, with an average
length from north to south of about twenty-six miles, and from east to west,
including the waters of the lake, of twenty-three miles, containing an area of
about 520 square miles, divided into fifteen townships and one city, in addi-
tion to Buel’s Gore.

In surface, the county is diversified by lofty mountains, deep gorges and
ravines, gentle acclivities, wide-spread verdant valleys, rivers, lakelets and
brooks, affording a landscape that is not only unexcelled in Vermont, but
which vies with many far more pretentious localities in foreign lands. Taken
together with its environs, it forms a scene upon which Nature has lavished
her treasures of beauty ‘with a full and unwithdrawing hand.” On the east-
ern part of its territory the Green Mountains rear their rocky crests with a
sharply defined contour, Mansfield and Camel’s Hump cleaving the clouds
at an altitude of 4,329 and 4,083 feet respectively, the highest peaks in the
range, while the western part of the territory lies upon the Red Sandrock
chain, one of the four divisions of mountain systems in the State, having
a gradual slope on the eastern side, and a bold, rugged escarpment on the
western.

The principal streams are the rivers Winooski or Onion, Lamoille, La
Plotte, Brown’sand Huntington. The Winooski, one of the largest rivers in the
State, enters near the center of the eastern line of the county, flows a westerly
course and falls into the Champlain between Burlington and Colchester, thus
completing its course of seventy miles, during which it waters 970 square
miles of territory, and affords sites for unlimited mill-power. Nature, circum-
stances, and historical lore have combined in rendering this stream one of
peculiar interest,—sufficient at least for it to merit a more euphonious cognomen
than the antiscorbutic “Onion,” consequently we have dropped it in this work.
A controversy has long existed relative to the derivation of its name, the
popular theory being that Winooski is an Indian name, composed of two
words in the Abinaqui, or Algonquin tongue, z7zoos, onions, or leeks, and
hi, land, so that its literal signification is land of onions. But as there are
at least six different styles of authography used by different writers, we cannot

understand why they should not affect the roots of the word. Accoriling to
a French map of 1732, the river is called Ounousgui. In the letters of John
A. Graham, published at London, in 1797, Mr. Graham gives the following
account of the naming of the river “Onion:” “A Mr. Peleg Sunderland,
[who was also appointed by the Grand Committee, at Bennington, as guide
to Maj. John Brown, in 1775, on his mission to Canada to treat with the In-
dians respecting the approaching war,] in 1761, while hunting for beaver on
this stream, lost his way, and was nearly exhausted with fatigue and hunger,
when a party of Indians fortunately met him, and with great humanity, re-
lieved his wants and saved him from perishing. Their provisions were poor ;
but what they had they freely gave, and their kindness made amends for
more costly fare. Their whole store consisted of onions, and Mr. Sunderland
then gave the stream, near which he was so providentially preserved, the name
of Onion River, which it has retained ever since.” During the early French
colonial wars it was called French River. But so much for this; we have at
least, we think, shown good cause for dropping the vegetable portion of its
name. The alluvial flats along its valley are narrow until the river has passed
the western range of the Green Mountains, when they become broad and
fertile. Its rocky gorges, etc., are spoken of in connection with the sketch of
Burlington, so we will omit their further notice at this point.

Bolton Falls, on this stream, in the eastern part of the County, are well
worth visiting. They form a wonderful evidence of the mighty agency of
water, for an ordinary observer cannot fail to discover that the high bluffs of
rock on either side were once united, and formed a barrier through which
the stream has gradually worn its deep and narrow channel. The contem-
plative mind at once reverts to the time when this barrier existed, and beholds
a long and narrow lake extending up the valley to Montpelier, and discovers
the reason why the streams emptying into the head of this lake should, in the
still water, deposit the sediment forming the numerous terraces that are found
in different portions of its valley. In the tranquil waters of this lake the sed-
iment brought down in the floods of the different streams emptying into it,
would settle at the bottom and partially fillit up. Upon the opening of the
rocky barrier,—like the breaking away of a flume or a portion of the dam ofa
mill-pond partly filled with sediment,—the running stream would sweep down
a portion of this sediment, by cutting a channel through it, either in the cen-
ter, leaving portions at each side, or upon one side and leaving the other
remaining. Thus the smoothly rounded rocks that project from the sides of
the valley, as well as the striated ones near the bed of the river, bear unmis-
takable testimony that by some abraidng agency, in which water played a
conspicuous part, the rocks have been worn down so as to give greater width
to the valley.

The Lamoille River is not as large as the Winooski, nor quite as long; yet
it has, in a lesser degree, the same wild, picturesque channel, and affords

many excellent specimens of terraces. It rises in Greesboro, from the union

of several streams (formerly from Runaway Pond), nt runs - southwest to Hard-
wick, when it turns northwesterly, passes through the middle of Lamoille
County, the southern part of Franklin County, and finally joins Lake Cham-
plain in the northwestern part of this county, in the town of Milton. It was
discovered by Champlain, in 1609, and called by him Za Afouette, the French
for mew, or gull, a species of water-fowl, which were very numerous about
the mouth of the stream. In Mr. Anger’s map of his surveys, in 1732, it is
called ¢a riviere a la Mouelle, probably a mistake in the engraver in not
crossing his #’s. “Thus,” says Mr. Thompson, ‘‘ to the mere carelessness of
a French engraver are we indebted for the smooth, melodious sounding name
Lamoille.”

Brown’s River, so named from Joseph Brown, an early settler upon its
banks, in the town of Jericho, originates in Underhill and thence flows a
southwesterly course through the northern part of Jericho, into Essex, where
it turns north and passes through Westford into Fairfax, in Franklin County,
and there unites with the Lamoille. It is twenty miles in length.

Huntington River rises in the southern part of Huntington, and after a
rapid, sepentine course over a gravel or stony bottom for about twenty miles,
empties into the Winooski, in the town of Richmond. This stream, from the
many specimens of terraces its valley consists, its rocky gorges, etc., is called
one of the most interesting tributaries of the Winooski.

The La Plotte is a small stream, only fifteen miles in length, rising in the
southeastern part of Hinesburgh, and flows a westerly course through a portion
of Charlotte and Shelburne, into the head of Shelburne Bay. As the inter-
esting tradition relative to the origin of its name is spoken of in connection
with the Shelburne sketch, we will defer further mention here. These are
the principal streams of the county, though there are many of almost equal
importance, affording many mill-sites, and ample irrigation to the soil.

No inland lakes of importance are found, though there are several small
ponds, Shelburne and Hinesburgh in the southern part of the county being
the largest. But the unequaled Champlain hes upon its western border,
stretching north and south as far as the eye can reach, while directly opposite,
on its western shore, the blue Adirondacks spread far into the interior—at
various points projecting their jagged spurs into the lake, and often present-
ing lofty headlands, waving with forests or frowning in bleak masses of naked
granite, while wide fields spread between these headlands, teaming with flocks
and herds, and redolent in beauty and fertility. Not less charming is the
scene presented on its eastern shore, though of a softer tone, and more of a
pastoral beauty, while beyond, the horizon is limited by the bold and serrated
outline of the Green Mountains. Still, this scene of transcendent natural
beauty on either shore, is dimmed by the exquisite loveliness of the lake
itself, which divides them. Calm and blue its waters lie, placid as the cloud-
shadows that fleck its bosom, reflecting the mountains and headlands, and
studded with numerous islands to variegate and adorn the scene—some of

which are mere rocky shafts shooting up from the surface of the waters ;
others, decked in their native emerald, gleam like gems upon its breast ;
while others, of alluvial formation, glow in their soft and gentle loveliness,
and are unsurpassed in their exuberant fertility.

Reader, at the beginning of this chapter we likened history to a bridge,
and purposed to journey with you across it, o’er the beautiful country we
have attempted to describe, to the days when its history, so far as we are
able to learn, was not. During this journey the beautiful Champlain must
be the principal point of interest, for around no other section of our beauti-
ful country cluster historical associations so brilliant and memorable. For a
century and a half, this lake, appropriately named by the Indians Caniadere-
Guarante, that is, “the lake which is the gate of the country,” was rendered
classic ground by successive deeds of daring, by bloody forays, by the
romances of border warefare, and by the conflicts of fleets and armies. During
those merciless contests, in which France and England were the allies of
savage tribes; in the long and sanguinary conflicts between those great
powers ; in the war of the Revolution, and that of 1812, the whole course
of the lake was stained with blood, and emblazoned by feats of glory.

When Samuel Champlain, in 1609, entered upon the waters which have
perpetuated his name, silence and solitude brooded over the charming scene.
Grand primeval forests covered the territory where the verdant fields of Chit-
tenden County now lie, with not even an Indian wigwam to relieve its deso-
lation and stillness,’ for continuous savage wars had driven its transcient popu-
lation into the recesses of the forests, and beyond the mountain barriers for
protection. But this peace and solitude were soon to be broken. Even upon
Champlain’s first visit his avywebus carried fear and death to the hearts of the
savages, some of whom he met on the New York side of the southern part
of the lake. Soon after, canoes and batteaux, in summer, were gliding over
its pure waters on errands of blood and rapine, or, in winter, a highway of its
crystal pavement was formed for the same purpose, over which the French
and their savage associates traversed the lake, thence up the Winooski, and
penetrating the gorges of the Green Mountains, devastated, often amid the
snows and storms of winter, the fairest villages of New England. Later on,
upon its blue waters and sequestered shores, vast armies, clothed in the pomp
and panoply of modern warfare, have gathered. But as our brief account of
the war of 1812, the war of the Revolution, etc., properly belongs to articles
under these respective heads, we must defer particular mention until they,
in their order, are reached.

As settlements began to spring up in the State, and the forests to recede
before the sturdy strokes of the pioneer, trade and commerce began to assert
their rights. As Skeensboro (now Whitehall) was the first point at which
the settlers touched the lake on their way north, and as the intercourse be-
came more frequent between Connecticut, Massachusetts and the new set-
tlements, Major Skeene, after whom the place was named, to accommodate
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 41

the small business which was springing up, built a sloop in 1770, and with it
opened a communication with the settlements on the borders of the lake and
Canada. ‘This was probably the first vessel which made any regular trips
through the lake, or which was used for the purposes of trade. Soon after
this, however, the Revolutionary war broke out, stopping all further settle-
ments, and even drove off nearly all the people who had come, so that the
navigation of the lake was returned to the uses of the military power.

After the close of the war, settlements rapidly sprung up and trade with
the Provinces was soon commenced with redoubled vigor, so that the white
wings of the trading sloops, and the rafts of heavy timber, dotted the whole
length of the lake. But the great stride in progress was not until 1808, one
year after Robert Fulton made the memorable trial trip of his steamboat on
the Hudson. It seems that parties in Burlington were the first to see, or
at least to take practical advantage of, the new field opened by this event ; for
during this year they launched the second practical steamboat ever made in
the world, and during the following year, 1809, it was completed and com-
menced navigating the lake, just two hundred years after Champlain had
entered upon its waters in his bark canoe. The owners and builders of this
boat were two brothers, James and John Winans. It was in appearance sim-
ilar to a large-class canal boat, except being about forty feet longer and six
feet wider. Her decks were clear, having no pilot-house, being steered by a
tiller, and her engine an horizontal one, being all under deck, only the smoke-
pipe appearing above. There was but one room below, about twenty-five by
eighteen feet, in which were berths upon the side, and which was used for a
dining-room as well as for a sleeping apartment. She was fitted with a second-
hand engine and boilers; cylinder twenty inches by three feet, “side level
bell crank,” with a large balance-wheel some ten feet in diameter,—witha]
very poor machinery. But they were the best that could be procured at
that time, as manufacturers of general machinery little understood the pro-
portioning of machinery to resist the power of steam. The consequence was
that the boat was constantly subject to “ break-downs,” which were a part of
her programme, and could be relied upon to make a trip from Whitehall to
St. Johns and back in about a week. In October, 1815, however, she had
her last “ break-down.” On her trip from St. Johns the connecting rod be-
came detached from the crank, and before the engine could be stopped, it
was forced through the bottom of the boat and she was sunk a wreck near
Ash Island, a few railes south of the Isle Aux Noix. The Messrs. Winans
took out her engine and boilers, and sold them to the Lake Champlain
Steamboat Company.

The great improvements made in steamboat building since the time of the
building of the “ Vermont” are well known. Even as early as 1815, a steamer
was built on the lake whose speed doubled that of its predecessor. This
boat, the “1st Phcenix,” met a sad fate, being destroyed by fire on
the sth of September, 1819, causing the death of six of its passengers. It

CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 43

may be well to state, however, that this is the only wreck or conflagration
which has occurred on the lake with an attendant loss of life. From this
time forward boats were rapidly put out, increasing in power and size, until
the present “ floating palaces” have attained almost perfection. Navigation
companies were established, and steamboat property came to be the
most profitable in which one could invest money. Its profit was diminished,
however, by the advent of its near relative, the locomotive, which took a large
share of its business. Still, there is an extensive business done on the lake
at the present time, which will doubtless continue, notwithstanding the build-
ing of railroads. We should like, did space permit, to add a sketch of the
establishment and progress of the several transportation companies, but as it
does not, we shall have to be content with giving, on the opposite page, a table
of the steamers that have been built on the lake, their dimensions, by whom
built, date of building, etc., which we hope will prove of interest to many.
Yet it may not be invidious to remark, that The Champlain Transportation
Co. is the oldest company existing on the lake, and that to its enterprise and
energy is Owing, in a great degree, the past and present prosperity of the
transportation business. As early as October 26, 1826, the Vermont legisla-
ture granted its charter, the following well-known names appearing as the
company: Ezra Meach, Martin Chittenden, Stephen S. Keys, Luther
Loomis, Roswell Butler, and Eleazer H. Deming.

 

 

GEOLOGICAL.

The geological formation of this county does not materially differ, in gen-
eral structure, from that of most of the other counties of the State. Its rocks
are distributed, like those of the others, in parallel ledges, or ranges, extend-
ing nearly in a north and south direction. Passing eastward from the lake
shore, the first of these veins is a ledge of Zyenton limestone, which enters
Charlotte from Addison County, underlying nearly the whole extreme western
part of that town, where it finally passes under the lake, to appear again in
Grand Isle and Isle La Motte, thence extending into Canada. Although this
rock has four distinct or chief varieties, one very soon learns to distinguish it
from all others, by its common characters of black schistose layers, associated
with slaty seams of limestone and occasionally argillaceous matter. There are
some varieties, however, that can be assigned to this formation only by their
fossils, in which the whole group is peculiarly rich. The thickness of the
Trenton limestone is 400 feet in New York, and is stated by Prof. Adams, in
his second report, to be of the same thickness in Vermont; but in one of his
note books he suggests that it may be even thicker. Mr. Hagar, however,
in his “‘Geology of Vermont,” says he should think that 4oo feet is rather too
great a thickness for it, as it generally appears in Vermont, though he has
made no measurements to settle the question.

A bed of U¢#ica slate comes next in order, crossing the western part of Char-
44 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

lotte and Shelburne, thence passing under the lake and croping out again in
the extremity of Colchester Point, and thence across to Grand Isle County,
This formation is a continuation of the calcareous shales of the Hunson River
group of rocks downward, until they meet the slaty limestone of the Tren-
ton limestone, and it is extremely difficult to distinguish between them and
the shales of the Hudson River group in Vermont, except by their fossils.
The range has a thickness of about one hundred feet.

Next to this bed comes a range of rocks known as Hudson River slates,
about a mile in width, passing through Charlotte and Shelburne, the western
portion of Colchester, and thence under the lake. Lithologically, it con-
sists of deposits of pure and impure limestone, clay slate, calcareous slate,
interstratified with small beds of limestone, often sparry, silicious slate, sand-
stones, brecciated limestone, and slaté filled with veins of calcite, etc. Prof.
Thompson speaks of this variety in Chittenden County as follows: ‘The
black slate is generally contortored or crushed, and abounds in seams of
white calcite, varying from a line to a foot in thickness. Still there are places
where the spar has not been injected, and where the lamination has not been
disturbed. Cases of this kind may be seen on the eastern side of Pottier’s
Point, and at Appletree Point. But all this slate doubtless contains too
much lime, and is too brittle to be used for any better purpose than making
roads. This slate, in many places, particularly where it is fragmentary, has its
surface covered with a black glazing, giving it very much the appearance of
anthracite. This may be seen near the meeting-house in Charlotte, and at
Rock Point, and it has led some to suppose that coal might be found in con-
nection with it. But I believe very little, if any, money has been thrown
away, in the vain search for coal in this county.” The group is 930 feet in
thickness, and is the highest member of the dower silurian rocks.

Parallel with and adjacent to this range is an immense bed of red sanda-
rock, having a mean width of about four miles, and extending through nearly
the whole length of the county, making the principal rock formation of the
towns of Charlotte, Hinesburgh, Shelburne, Colchester and Milton.

Stratigraphically considered, this bed occupies the position of the Medina
Group, of New York, or its equivalent, the Levant series of Pennsylvania and
Virginia. The sandstones and shales bear a close resemblance to those of
the latter, not only in color, but in the profusion of fucoid-like markings
which they display on some of the parting surfaces. The series of reddish
and gray limestones which rest upon these massive arenaceous beds form an
interesting feature in the geology of Vermont. Their altercation with layers
of sandstone and shale, and their frequently reddish tint, would lead us to
regard them as a continuation of the lower mass under somewhat new forma-
tive conditions. In the prolongation of this belt of sandstones and lime-
stones toward the north, as in the vicinity of Burlington, the latter mass is
seen to consist, in great part, of a pinkish-white, fine-graned limestone, which
toward its base contains layers of reddish limestone, interstratified with red
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 45

 

sandstone, making the transition from the arenaceous to the calcareous form
of deposit. This latter variety forms a very durable and handsome building
material. The whole formation, however, embraces a great variety of rocks,
and there is some difficulty experienced in associating them together, because
of the general absence of fossils. The general variety is a reddish brown or
chocolate-colored sandstone. It becomes calcareous, and is frequently
interstratified with dolomitic layers of corresponding color. The grains of sand
composing the rock are often transparent, sometimes mixed with minute
fragments of feldspar. A slight metamorphic action has sometimes rendered
the grains nearly invisible, and made the whole rock compact. North of
Burlington the variety is mostly red and variegated dolomites. At Milton a
grayish quartz rock appears, probably equivalent to the red rock. The red
color is owing to the change in the combination of the iron which enters into
its composition, produced by heat.

Extending through the center of the county, with a mean width of about
three miles, underlying portions of the towns of Hinesburgh, Charlotte, Shel-
burne, Williston, Burlington, Essex, Colchester, Westford and Milton, is a
range of Lolian limestone, or marble, one of the most important and useful
rocks in Vermont. It furnishes the beautiful white marble, equal to the
finest Italian; known all over the world as the product of this State. Such a
rock, and such marble, certainly deserve a name as beautiful and as euphon-
ical as the epithet Eolian. There is more variety in the limestone of this
group than in almost any other formation in the State; yet the variations
are mostly slight in themselves chemically, but considerable as far as external
appearance is concerned, producing the numerous shades of variegated mar-
ble, each surpassing the other in beauty, ranging from the, purest white to
inky blackness. An excellent opportunity is afforded the curious for com-
paring our native marbles, both of this and other States, with that imported
from Italy, at the extensive manufactory of J. W. Goodell & Co., of Burling-
ton, where immense quantities are kept on hand, enabling one to examine
the rocks side by side, both before and after they have been cut and polished.
An excellent quality of variegated marble, containing many beautiful fos-
sils, is quarried near Mallett’s Bay, in Colchester. The coloring matter in this
species of limestone is usually derived from minute particles of slaty matter
disseminated through them. Hence they never fade or disappear, or change
their position in the slabs after they have been quarried. The occasional
stains which appear may be produced by a small portion of pyrites, affording
a dirty, brownish hue. Most of the iron rust stain upon the blocks of marble
at the mills is temporarially produced by particles of iron worn from the saws.
The thickness of the Eolian limestone bed is estimated at 2,000 feet.

Leaving the vein of marble, we find next in order a deposit of clay slate,
about a mile in width, extending from the northeastern part of Milton to the
southern line of the county. The varieties in clay slate are few, unless we
refer to color. The rock is usually simple and homogeneous, composed of
46 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

finely comminuted, hardened clay. If it has a good deal of iron, and if this
is passing to the state of peroxyd, we shall have red slate, such as is quarried
within the limits of New York, and in several localities in Vermont. The red
and gray slates, and also those of a greenish color, are also found. Wheever will
compare a bed of clay where the layers have been deposited quietly above one
another, with the slates used for roofing, will notice a strong resemblance of
form and composition ; and he cannot but suspect that the latter has been
derived from the former. He can, if he will, trace out the steps of the pro-
cess. Clay hardened by the sun and filled with cracks, seems to be a sort of
first step in the process. Among the newer sandstones he will see similar
layers, called shale, which is sometimes only a little harder than clay. These
changes are produced in the shales by the more powerful influence of meta-
morphic agencies, which generally also superinduce other divisional planes in
the rock, such as cleavage and joints. But cleavage planes in most of the
clay slates of Vermont, coincide essentially with those of deposition ; and the
slaty layers seem to be mostly strata or laminze modified. If the modifying
force were pressure, it seems to have operated to convert the planes of lamin-
ation and stratification into those of cleavage, increasing the number of the
latter. The bed in this county, however, might more properly be termed
shales, and is unfit for roofing purposes.

An immense bed of falcose conglomerate, about four miles in width, extend-
ing through the whole length of the county, and underlying a greater or Jess
portion of the towns of Hinesburgh, Huntington, Jericho, Williston, Essex,
Westford and Milton, lies next to the c/ay s/ate vein on the east. According
to Prof. Adams, in his report of 1845, this rock was called maguesian slate,
but later its present name was considered more appropriate, and consequently
adopted. The vein is a purely conglomerate species, having associated
together in its formation the following varieties of rocks: Sandstones, breccias,
quartz rock, calcareous rocks, novaculite schist, talcose schist, and coarse
conglomerates. The sandstones are few, while the quartz variety is quite
abundant. A large bed of the latter in almost a distinct formation lies in the
southern part of the county, extending into the towns of Hinesburgh, Rich-
mond and Williston. Prof. Thompson called these rocks Zaconic, and has
left the following note concerning them: ‘These rocks commence east of the
clay slate and Eolian limestones, and extend eastward; but I shall not attempt
to assign their eastern limits. They consist entirely of schistose rocks, com-
posed chiefly of quartz, and most of them more or less magnesian. There is
a belt extending through Westford and the east part of Essex, and the west
part of Jericho to Winooski River, which is quite chloritic. This is often
thick-bedded, and answers very well for a building stone, though rather soft.
It has been considerably used for doorsteps, and has been transported to Bur-
lington for that purpose. Some of the strata appear to be a coarse sandstone,
or rather a fine conglomerate, Some places, as at Essex, exhibit a fine, com-
pact magnesian slate, which is easily sawed into any form, and is used as a
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 47

fire-stone. In many places the slaty lamine are coverd with fine talc glazing.
The slate generally, in the eastern part of the county, may perhaps be called
talcose, but the proportion of talc, in the greater part of it, is quite small.
The predominant mineral in it is quartz, and it often occurs, either white or
limpid, in seams several inches in thickness.” In the Geological Reports
of 1861, Prof. Hagar says: ‘‘We have made no estimate of the thickness of
the ¢alcose conglomerates, but know that they must bevery thick. They must
be 2,000 or 3,000 feet thick at the least calculation. We suppose that this
bed of rocks includes the Sillery sandstones of Canada. These are estimated
at 4,000 feet, in Canada.” No fossils have been found in this range.

Adjacent to this vein of conglomerate is a large range of ¢adcose schist, ex-
tending eastward nearly to the county line. Zadcose schist proper consists of
quartz and talc ; but with this bed there are associated together, consisting
integral parts of the formation, clay slate, with plumbaginous, aluminous and
pyritiferious varieties; hornblende schist, gneiss, quartz rock,sandstones and
conglomerates, limestone and dolomites. Prof. Zadock Thompson has the follow-
ing respecting this range in Chittenden County: ‘Along the foot of Mans-
field Mountain, in Underhill, a thick-bedded mica slate occurs, which makes
a very good building stone. The stratification is so completely obliterated,
that much of it, like granite, splits in all directions with nearly equal facility.
In connection with these beds, seams of chlorite occur. Some of the strata
ranging north and south through Underhill, Jericho, Bolton, and Huntington,
are of a ferruginous character, and iron ores in small quantities have been
found in several places, but not enough to justify the expectation of finding
it in quantity. Near this range of ferruginous slate, a narrow range of
plumbaginous slate shows itself in several places, as in Huntington and
Jericho. This is doubtless a continuation of the same narrow range of plum-
baginous slate, which occurs in Cambridge, Waterville, and the western part
of Montgomery and Richford. ‘To the eastward of the synclinal axis passing
through Underhill, and the eastern part of Jericho, the rock perhaps should
be called mica slate, although it usually contains more or less talc. The
rocks on the summit of Mansfield Mountain appear, in places at least, to be
talcose slate. A great part of the slate which forms the mountains extend-
ing from the chin towards the north, along the eastern border of the county,
abounds in octahedral crystals of magnetic iron.”

The rocks underlying the residue of the county are of the Azozc period and
of gneiss formation. The essential ingredients of gvezss are quartz, feldspar,
and mica, forming a rock closely resembling granite, differing from it only in
having a distinctly stratified, slaty or laminated structure. For this reason it
makes a very handsome and convenient building stone, as the sheets or strata
can be easily obtained at the quarries, and it can then be split or divided into
any required thickness. “ The thickness of the gvezss in Vermont,” says Mr.
Hitchcock, “‘must be very great. The section across Mount Holley, in Rut-
land County, may perhaps give an average of its thickness. About 8,000
48 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

feet of strata have been removed there, of which we should estimate about
6,000 feet to have been of gveiss. Yet as the bottom of the formation may
not have been reached here, the true thickness may be greater.”

This ends our brief sketch of the principal rocks entering into the geolog-
ical formation of the county, and we will now turn our attention for a few mo-
ments to its surface geology, then drop the subject, to be taken up by far more
competent hands than ours. That the whole of this beautiful territory of Ver-
mont, not excepting the summits of its most lofty mountains, was once the
bottom of a great ocean ; that its verdant and flower-bedecked valleys were
the basin or channel of mighty lakes and rivers; that the whole was once
covered by stupendous glaciers and ice-floes, are facts incontrovertable. Each
of these epochs or periods has left its history, written as plainly as the records
upon the pyramids of Egypt, leaving behind, as it were, ‘‘ Footprints of their
Creator.” But they who have deciphered the history, or “‘ Testimony of the
Rocks,” have not, as has the Archzologist that of the pyramids, arrived at the
truth by delving in the ruins of a forgotten language, but from the scroll of
nature, descending into the bowels of the earth, and reaching forth into the
uttermost parts of the limitless heavens for information. For—

** All infinite, all limitless in awe,
Heaven to great minds was given;
Yet, with all his littleness, down to his inch
Man can draw—the heaven.”
Such is the province of the geologist.

But to return to the several changes we have mentioned. Among men of
science it has become the common, if not the prevailing opinion, that all the
elements with which we meet were first in an ethereal, or gaseous state—that
they slowly condensed, existing for ages as a heated fluid, by degrees becoming
more consistent—that thus the whole earth was once an immense ball of fiery
matter—that, in the course of time, it was rendered very compact, and at last
became crusted over, as the process of cooling gradually advanced—and that
its interior is still in a molten condition. Thus, if the view suggested be cor-
rect, the entire planet, in its earlier phases, as well as the larger part now
beneath and within its solid crust, is known to geologists as elementary or
molton. Then came another age, in which this molten mass began to cool
and a crust to form, called the zgweous period. Contemporaneous with the
beginning of the igneous period, came another epoch. The crust thus formed
would naturally become surrounded by an atmosphere heavily charged with
minerals in a gaseous or vaporous condition. As the cooling advanced, this
etherealized matter would condense and seek a lower level, thus coating the
earth over with another rock. This is named the vaforous period. At last,
however, another age was ushered in—one altogether different from those that
had preceded it. The moist vapors which must of necessity have pervaded
the atmosphere began to condense and settle, gathering into the hollows and
crevices of the rocks, until nearly the whole surface of the earth was covered
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 49

 

with water. This is called the aguweous period. As these waters began to
recede and the “ firmament to appear,” the long winter would cover the earth
with mighty ice-floes and glaciers, forming what is known as the drift, or gla-
cial period. Evidences of these several epochs are left in Chittenden County
by terraces, moraines, adrift bowlders, etc.

First, ferraces.—These are simply shelves, or water-marks, left on the
sides of valleys and mountains, proclaiming that they were once the
beach of a lake or ocean, while the fossils left will decide which of the
two it was. These terraces are the most fully developed in the valley
of the Winooski; yet the Lamoille valley, and that of the other several streams,
contain fine specimens. The deposits of sand, too, proclaiming the bed of an
ocean, are numerous and extensive, particularly in the towns of Milton, Col-
chester, and Burlington. They are for the most part superficial, varying in
depth from a few inches to eighty or ninety feet, and in general have a regular
and nearly horizontal stratification. They usually terminate downward in
brown or blue clay, and in many places the mixture of clay and sand is in the
proper proportion for making brick, as at the foot of Winooski Falls. The
elevation of the surface of these sand deposits varies from twenty to two
hundred and sixty feet above Lake Champlain. The mean elevation of those
plains (terraces) to the westward of the range of limestone extending trom
Rock Point to Mallett’s Head, and thence to Milton, may be estimated at
forty feet ; and the mean elevation of the extensive sandy plains commencing
in Burlington, and extending through the southwestern part of Essex, and
through the central parts of Colchester and Milton, is about 200 feet. Ma-
rine shells are found in this sand in numerous places. At one place in Bur-
lington, half a mile northeast from Rock Point, and by the side of the road,
they abound in a coarse gravel about 130 feet above the lake ; and two miles
northeast of Mallett’s Bay, in Colchester, is a large deposit of them at an ele-
vation of more than 200 feet above the lake. At both places they are much
broken, and mingled with rather coarse gravel. It would appear in these
places, that the shells had been worked up above the line of the shore com-
posed of drift, and that the gravel of the drift was mingled with them by the
action of the waves, and these and larger objects, like the fossil whale, were
buried by the washing down of the drift materials.

Second, drift—We think it will not be difficult for almost any inhabitant
to form an accurate idea of drift. For in almost every part of the county
occur accumulations of bowlders, or large blocks of stone, with the angles
more or Jess rounded, lying upon the solid ledges, or upon, or in the midst of
a mixture of smaller fragments, with gravel and sand; the whole mingled
confusedly together, and evidently abraded by some powerful agency from
the rocks in place, and driven along pell mell often to great distances ; for
if the bowlders and fragments be examined, they will for the most part be
found not to correspond to the ledges beneath, but to others many miles
perhaps to the north or northwest.

Third, moraines.—These are a class of ferraces formed by ice instead of
water. The theory of their formation is as follows: In the glacial period,
icebergs became stranded at the base and on the sides of hills, and deposits
were made around and upon them, and they would have been level-topped if
the ice had remained; but in consequence of its melting they are now ex-
tremely irregular. At Underhill Flats the moraine terraces are abundant, and
beautifully rounded, upon both sides of Brown’s River.

STAPLE PRODUCTIONS.

As a whole, the county has an excellent, productive soil, varying from a fine
alluvial deposit to clay and sand, with very little of its territory unfit for
purposes of cultivation. The staple products are wheat, rye, Indian corn,
oats, barley, buckwheat, potatoes, and the various products of its herds and
flocks. Some idea of the extent of its products may be formed from the fol-
lowing statistics, taken from the census report of 1870, though the report for
1880, when tabulated, will doubtless show a material change in many of the
figures. During that year there were 218,670 acres of improved land in the
county, while the farms were valued at $14,783,045.00, and produced 46,426
bushels of wheat, 11,804 bushels of rye, 163,597 bushels of Indian corn,
286,615 bushels of oats, 14,381 bushels of barley, 21,768 bushels of buck-
wheat, and 333,858 bushels of potatoes. There were also in the county 4,977
horses, 21,941 milch cows, 1,014 working oxen, 17,041 sheep, and 4,809
swine. From the milk of the cows was manufactured 1,761,543 pounds of
butter, and 1,374,387 pounds of cheese, while the sheep yielded 87,256
pounds of wool, or about five pounds to the fleece, providing each sheep was
sheared.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES.

As early as 1819, a society existed in Burlington, called the “‘ Chittenden
County Society for Promoting Agriculture and Domestic Manufactures,” of
which Martin Chittenden was president, and Charles Adams, secretary. The
first fair held was during the following year, 1820, near the present Oslo E.
Pinney residence, and an address delivered at the Court House Square.
Fairs, however, were held here by the Chittenden County Agricultural Society,
as it was called, in the years 1843 and 1848, inclusive, and one was adver-
tised for 1849, but not held, and in 1857, 1858, and 1862, since which time
they were held in Essex. At these fairs the agricultural and mechanical pro-
ducts of the county were exhibited, several hundred dollars expended in pre-
miums, etc., and were in all respects a success; but it finally became appa-
rent to those most actively interested in the promotion of agricultural inter-
ests in the county, that an association founded on more extended principals
should be inaugurated. Accordingly, in 1881, a society called the Lake
Champlain Agricultural and Mining Association was contemplated by them,
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. SI

 

and stock issued for $25,000.00, in shares of $25.00 each, $20,000.00 of
which was taken up, when the State Society took the balance and are to
hold their fairs in union with that association. Accordingly, pursuant to a
vote of the corporators, who had decided to call the association Zhe Cham-
plain Valley Association for the Promotion of Agriculture and the Mechanic
Arts, and in accordance with a published notice, the first meeting of
stockholders of the association was held in the city court-room, Saturday,
May 6, 1882, the State Society being represented by its Secretary, Mr. N. B.
Safford. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Henry Loomis, president ;
G. G. Benedict, from the committee to report by-laws and to present nomi-
nations for directors, reported that the committee appointed on the part of
the Champlain Valley Association had held a joint meeting with the com-
mittee appointed for alike purpose by the State Agricultural Society, and had
prepared the series of by-laws then presented. The report of the committee
was accepted, and the by-laws, ten in number, were duly adopted. He further
reported that the State Agricultural Society had selected seven gentlemen,
and the committee of the Champlain Valley Association seven, for directors,
and that for the fifteenth member of the board the committee unanimously
agreed upon Hon. John Gregory Smith, and in accordance with that action
the committee nominated the following list of fifteen gentlemen for directors :
LeGrand B. Cannon, John Gregory Smith, Henry Chase, Henry G. Root,
James A. Shedd, Crosby Miller, George Hammond, John W. Cramton,
Lemuel S. Drew, Frederick M. VanSicklen, Urban A. Woodbury, Sidney H..
Weston, Buel J. Derby, Louis H. Talcott, and Albert G. Peirce.

On Wednesday, May 10, at an adjourned meeting, the following officers were
elected: President, LeGrand B. Cannon; vice-presidents, H. G. Crane,
George W. Hendee, Hervey Spencer, A. Williams, Timothy Hoyle, George
Hammond, Frank W. Witherbee, H. G. Burleigh, John W. Stewart, John L.
Barstow ; secretary, E. F. Brownell ; treasurer, Cyrus M. Spaulding ; general
superintendent, James A. Shedd; auditors, S. H. Weston, L. H. Talcott;
construction committee, James A. Shedd, H. G. Root, F. M. VanSicklen ;
executive committee, H. G. Root, J. Gregory Smith, Henry G. Chase, F. M.
VanSicklen, Albert G. Peirce.

The directors, we understand, are now (May, 1882,) taking measures for the
purchase of the grounds, erection of necessary buildings, etc. Thus the So-
ciety starts out, under the best auspices, and bids fair to become one of the
most extensive and useful in this part of the country.

MANUFACTURES.

As the manufacturing interests are spoken of in detail in connection.with
the several town sketches, it would be but needless repetition to give the sub-
ject more than a passing glance at this point. A comparison of the present
facilities, as therein set forth, with their condition half a century ago, however,
52 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

will teach one that the history of Chittenden County, in this respect at least,
has been one of sure, steady improvement; a course, too, which has not ended,
but only begun. Many portions of the territory which fifty years ago, yes,
twenty-five years since, were either considered unworthy to bear the point of
a plowshare, or covered with the gnarled trunks of the primeval forest, now
are the site of extensive factories, where the whir of the loom or the steady
stroke of the mechanic’s busy hammer are heard constantly. And let us here
prophesy that, he who looks upon the county a quarter of a century hence,
will behold as marked an improvement during that time, as he who now
takes a retrospect of the one just passed. The principal manufactures are
that of lumber in all its various branches—sash, doors, blinds, wooden-ware,
etc., woolen and cotton cloths, marble and granite, machinery, and dairy
products. According to the United States census report of 1870, the county
had 300 manufacturing establishments, operated by thirty-one steam engines,
and one hundred water-wheels, giving employment to 3,451 people. There
were $3,760,520.00 invested in manufactures, while the manufactured products
for the year were valued at $6,537,230.00, nearly double that of any other
county in the State.

COURTS AND COUNTY BUILDINGS.

At the organization of Addison County, as previously mentioned, courts
were appointed to be held alternately at Addison and Colchester; and after
the establishment of Chittenden County, Colchester was still retained as the
shire town, although all causes pending in the supreme court were tried in
Addison County. On October 21, 1788, however, an act was passed restor-
ing the supreme court to Chittenden County, “with all actions and appeals
from this county, pending in the county of Addison, to be heard, tried, and
determined in said court, to be holden at Colchester,” and fixing the stated
terms of the court on the first Tuesday of August annually. The supreme court
held two annual sessions in Colchester, commencing with the August term,
1789. At this and the succeeding term, Nathaniel Chipman presided as chief
justice, and Noah Smith and Samuel Knight as assistant justices ; and at the
third term, held at Burlington, Elijah Paine was chief justice, and Samuel
Knight and Isaac Tichenor assistant justices. The county court held six
terms at Colchester, commencing with the February term, 1788 ; the first four
terms (embracing the years 1788-1789), John Fassett, Jr., of Cambridge, pre-
sided as chief justice, and John White, of Georgia, and Samuel Lane, of
Burlington, assistant justices; John Knickerbocker, clerk; Noah Chitten-
den, of Jericho, sheriff; Samuel Hitchcock, of Burlington, State’s attorney.
John McNeil, of Charlotte, was judge of probate, Isaac McNeil, register, and
Stephen Lawrence, of Burlington, county treasurer. The next four terms of
the court, the last two held at Burlington, at the inn of Gideon King (179¢
and 1791), John Fassett, Jr., presided as chief justice, and John White and
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 53

 

John McNeil, assistant justices ; Martin Chittenden, clerk ; Stephen Pearl,
sheriff, Samuel Hitchcock, State’s attorney for 1790, and William C. Harring-
ton for 1791; Col. John Spafford, county treasurer. The county still retained
its original limits, which extended over the counties of Grand Isle, Franklin,
Lamoille, and parts of Washington and Orleans, and was divided into three
probate districts, with Matthew Cole, of Richmond, Jonathan Hoyt, of St.
Albans, and Timothy Pearl, of Burlington, were appointed judges of probate,
in their respective districts.

The first jury trial in the county, after its organization, was at the February
term of the court, 1788, being an action of trespass guare clausum Sregit, in
favor of John Collins vs. Frederick Saxton; in which case David Stanton,
Jonathan Bush, John Doxy, Alexander Gordon, John Martin, John Chamber-
lin, John Fisk, David Whitcomb, David Warren, Eben Barstow, William Smith,
and Allen Hackett were empaneled as jurors.

By a special act of the legislature, passed October 27, 1790, the courts were
removed from Colchester to Burlington—fixing the session of the supreme court
on the fourth ‘luesday of August, and the county court on the last Tuesday
of February, and last save one in September. The county officers continued
the same up to the February term, 1794, when Martin Chittenden took his
seat as one of the assistant justices in place of John White, and Solomon
Miller was appointed clerk, which office he held for the next eighteen years in
succession, (save the year 1808, by William Barney,) to his credit, as a very
accurate and efficient officer. And until 1794, the same judges of the supreme
court presided.

In the meantime, Chittenden County had been circumscribed in its limits
by the erection of Franklin County on the north. Soon after this division,
it seems that there was a controversy on the subject of locating the county-
town and buildings. To settle the question, a special act of the legislature
was passed, November 4, 1793, ‘‘appointing Thompson J. Skinner and Samuel
Sloan, of Williamstown, and Israel Jones, of Adams, in the commonwealth of
Massachusetts, a committee to fix on the place for holding county and supreme
courts in the county of Chittenden; and to stick a stake, for the place of
building the court-house.” The decision of this committee resulted in the
permanent establishment of the courts and court-house at Burlington, where
they still remain, and where the supreme court meets on the first Tuesday in
January, and county court on the first Tuesday in April, and the third Tues-
day in September. The probate districts were changed so that the county
now constitutes one district. The United States circuit and district courts
also hold their sessions here on the fourth Tuesday in February.

The first sessions of the courts at Burlington were held in a room in the
southeastern part of the house of Capt. King, at Burlington Bay, as it was
then called, being a settlement at the lower end of the present Battery street.
The room used was about 16x20 feet. The portion of the room allotted to the
judges was railed off with boards, and within, upon a slab, into which round

poles had been inserted for legs, sat the justiciary of the county. Here courts
continued to be held until the summer of 1796, when a court-house was erected
on the center of Court House Square, and a jail near the northeast corner, on
the ground now occupied by the Strong’s block. In 1802, a court-house was
erected upon the site of that now occupied by the Fletcher Library building,
which was used until 1828, when it was destroyed by fire. During the same
year, another was erected in its place, the present library building, a two-story
brick building, forty-six feet wide and sixty feetlong. The lower story was occu-
pied for offices by the county clerk and sheriff, and for jury rooms, the upper fora
courtroom. The town united with the county in erecting the building, and $1,500
was subscribed on condition of having the basement thereof to the sole and
exclusive use of the town for town purposes, and was used by them for
holding town meetings until 1854, when the town hall was built, since which
time, until devoted to the uses of the library, it was used for housing fire
engines and apparatus. This building was used as a court-house until the
present court-house was completed, an elegant structure of cut and hammered
stone, two stories in height, with a mansard roof, which cost between $50,000
and $60,000, and was commenced in 1871, and completed in 1873.

THE POOR.

Those who, from age, infirmity or otherwise, are unable to support them-
selves, and are so unfortunate as to be obliged to rely upon public charity
for sustenance, are cared for, in conformity with the laws of the State, by the
towns wherein the applicants reside.

INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS.

A company was incorporated November 1, 1843, for the purpose, and
with the right, of building a railroad “from some point on the eastern shore
of Lake Champlain, thence up the valley of Onion River, and extending toa
point on the Connecticut River most convenient to meet a railroad either
from Concord, N. H., or Fitchburgh, Mass.” Stock was subscribed for the
enterprise, and in the spring of 1847, work upon the construction of the Ver-
mont Central Railroad was commenced. Various financial difficulties and
controversies with other enterprises of a like kind followed, delaying its com-
pletion until 1849, when, in November of that year, the first train of cars
passed over it. Its final route was decided upon as follows: commencing at
Windsor, it follows the Connecticut River to the mouth of White River,
thence up that stream to the source of its third branch; thence, reaching the
summit in Roxbury, and passing down the valley of Dog River, it enters the
Winooski valley, near Montpelier; and thence, continuing in the Winooski
valley, near Montpelier ; and thence, continuing in the Winooski valley, its
terminus is reached at Burlington, a distance of 117 miles.

On the same date that the above charter was granted, November I, 1843,
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 55

another charter was issued to the Champlain and Connecticut River Railroad
Company for the purpose of ~ Constructing a railroad from some point at
Burlington, thence southwardly, through the counties of Addison, Rutland,
Windsor and Windham, to some point on the western bank of the Connecticut
River.” The route fixed upon was from Bellows Falls to Burlington, a distance
of 1194 miles, passing through portions of the valleys of Williams and Black
Rivers, upon the eastern side of the Green Mountains, and along the valley of
Otter Creek and valley of Lake Champlain, upon the western side. The first
meeting of the stockholders was held at Rutland, May 6, 1845, with Timothy
Follett, of Burlington, chairman, and L. Brown, of Rutland, clerk, at which
it was voted to open subscriptions for stock, June roth, of that year, which was
accordingly done. On November 6, 1847, the legislature changed the name
of the corporation to the Rutland & Burlington Railroad Company, and sub-
sequently it was changed to the Rutland Railroad Company. The first blow
towards its construction was struck during the month of February, 1847, in
the town of Rockingham, near Bellows Falls, and in two years and nine
months it was completed, and opened through, December 18, 1849.

The Vermont and Canada Railroad Company was incorporated by the
general assembly, October 31, 1845, and amended and altered, November 15,
1847, giving a right to build a railroad “from some point in Highgate, on the
Canada line, thence through the village of St. Albans, to some point or points
in Chittenden County, most convenient for meeting, at the village of Burling-
ton, a railroad to be built on the route described in the acts to incorporate the
Champlain & Connecticut River Railroad Company, and the Vermont
Central Railroad Company.” The route decided upon was from Rouse’s
Point to Burlington, a distance of fifty-three miles, passing through the towns
of Colchester, Milton, Georgia, St. Albans, Swanton and Alburgh. Ground
was broken for its construction early in September, 1848, in the northern part
of Georgia, and completed and opened to the public early in 1851.

By the subsequent organization of the present Central Vermont Rail-
road Company, however, these roads all came under its control, and are
now operated by the same, as different branches of the Central Vermont
Railroad. The company has its principal office at St. Albans, with the fol-
lowing list of officers: J. Gregory Smith, president; J. W. Hobart, general
superintendent ; J. M. Foss, assistant general superintendent; A. Arnold,
superintendent central division; I. B. Futvoie, superintendent northern divi-
sion; Jesse Burdett, superintendent Rutland division; E. A. Chittenden,
superintendent of local freight traffic; and W. F. Smith, general passenger
agent.

The Burlington and Lamoille Railroad Company was organized February
24, 1875, under the general laws of the State. Its construction was com-
menced in May of that year, and was finished and opened for traffic, July 2,
1877, extending from Burlington to Cambridge, a distance of thirty-five
miles. The track between Burlington and Essex Junction is not used by the
56 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

company at present, aS arrangements were made with the Central Vermont
Company, by which their line is used to that point. The first list of officers
were: William B. Hatch, of New York, president; N. Parker, of Burlington,
vice-president ; E. W. Peck, of Burlington, treasurer; D. C. Linsley, of Bur-
lington, general manager. The present officers are: D.C. Linsley, presi-
dent; C. M. Spaulding, vice-president ; E. W. Peck, treasurer; G. L. Linsley,
general manager; and L. Barnes, N. Parker, D. C. Linsley, Morillo Noyes,
C. M. Spaulding, and G. L. Linsley, of Burlington, and Josiah Tuttle, of
Essex, H. M. Field, of Jericho, L. F. Turrill, of Underhill, H. F. Wetherby,
of Cambridge, William B. Hatch, of New York, George W. Hendee, of Mor-
risville, and Waldo Brigham, of Hydeville, directors.

NEWSPAPERS.

During the latter part of the last century, when Chittenden County was
but a youth, its first newspaper was issued; since that time, except for short
periods, it has not been without a live, energetic sheet. Two papers are now
published within its limits, conducted in a manner that would do discredit to
no publication or locality.

The Burlington Mercury, published at Burlington, was the first publication
ever issued in the county. It was a small sheet, published weekly by Don-
nelly & Hill, from 1797 to 1799, when it was discontinued, and for the next
two years none was issued.

The Vermont Centinel was then commenced by John K. Baker, the first
number appearing Thursday, March 19, 1801. The above name was retained
until December 6, 1810, when its title was changed to Morthern Centinel, a
new volume being commenced December 13, 1810, with its new title. Two
years later, December 10, 1812, the word “Northern” was dropped, and the
new volume commenced as The Centinel. A year later, January 14, 1814, a
figured heading appeared upon the paper, bearing the title—Jorthern Sen-
finel; the old name resumed, but with modernized spelling. This figured
heading was retained throughout the year, then dropped, and the plain title of
Northern Sentinel resumed. This name it retained until 1830, when it was
changed to Burlington Sentinel, a title it retained until June, 1872, and then
changed to Burlington Democrat.

Mr Baker, the founder of the paper, relinquished its publication on the 12th
of October, 1804, in favor of Josiah King ; but Mr. Baker’s services were
retained as assistant editor. Mr. King retained the proprietorship of the
paper only one year, having relinquished it October 11, 1805, when its pub-
lication was resumed by its founder, and printed by him “for the proprie-
tors” (the names of whom we are unable to give), until the beginning of
the following April, 1806, when it passed into the hands of Messrs, Daniel
Greenleaf & Co. It was considerably enlarged in size by them, and much
improved in its general appearance. The name of the publishing firm was, a

few weeks later, changed to Greenleaf & Mills, the firm consisting of
Daniel Greenleaf and Samuel Mills. The partnership between them, however,
was dissolved in October of the same year (1806); and the Se¢ined, with
its printing establishment, became the sole property of Mr. Mills. It con-
tinued under his proprietorship until January 1, 1818, when he retired from
the printing business, having sold out his interest in it to his brothers,
Ephraim and Thomas Mills. The Messrs E. & T. Mills remained the pub-
lishers of the Sen¢ine/ until January 1, 1835, when they sold it to Mr. Nahum
Stone. After publishing the paper about two years, Mr. Stone sold his in
terest to Sylvanus Parsons, who retained it only about one year, then sold it
to Azro Bishop. Bishop retained the proprietorship of the paper some two
years, then sold out his interest to Dana Winslow. Winslow continued its
publication about three years, then sold it to George Howard Paul, who
published it several years. Not being fortunate, however, in his pecuniary
affairs, Mr. Paul failed, and his property, including the Sentinel establish-
ment, passed into the hands of an assignee, by whom the paper was sold to
John G. Saxe, Esq. This was in the year 1851. Mr. Sax continued to pub-
lish it until 1855, when he in turn sold out to Douglas A. Danforth, who
continued the sole proprietor of it for several years. During the latter
part of 1859, he sold a half of his interest in the paper, and the large job
printing establishment connected with it, to E. Marvin Smalley; and it was
published by them, under the firm name of Danforth & Smalley, during the
year 1860, and until March, 1861. Mr. Smalley then sold his interest in it
to William Henry Hoyt, who also, a few weeks later, purchased from Mr.
Danforth his interest in it, and thus became its sole proprietor. On October
1, 1861, the firm was changed to W. H. & C. A. Hoyt & Co., who in turn
sold the property to William Eaton. Mr. Eaton continued the publication
until 1868, when it was discontinued. In 1871, it was recommenced by
Harry C. Fay, and continued by him one year, when it was sold to Albion N.
Merchant, of Champlain, N. Y., in June, 1872. Mr. Merchant removed the
paper from Burlington, changing the name to Burlington Democrat, and it
was issued as such for a time from Providence, R I., and finally changed to
the Rhode Island Democrat, and as such is still published.

The Burlington Gazette, a weekly, published by Hinckley & Fish, was com-
menced September 9, 1814, and continued until February, 1817.

The Repertory was next commenced, a weekly, published by Jeduthan
Spooner, its first issue appearing October 1, 1821, and was continued but a
short time.

Burlington Free Press was first issued June 15, 1827, by Luman Foote.
Its establishment met with great favor in the community, and being con-
ducted with great ability, it soon became one of the most influential papers in the
State, a position it still continues to maintain. Mr. Foote continued its
publication alone, till the latter part of February, 1828, when Henry B. Stacy,
who had had the practical business of printing the paper under his charge

almost from the issue of its first number, became associated with Mr. Foote
as editor and proprietor. By them juintly it was edited and published till
January, 1833, when Mr. Stacy became sole editor and proprietor, and so re-
mained till July, 1846. At that time DeWitt C. Clarke became its owner and
editor. From the commencement of the paper until April, 1848, the Bur-
lington Free Press had appeared only as a weekly sheet ; but at that time,
telegraph connections having been formed between Burlington and New
York, by the way of Troy, Mr. Clarke started a daily paper entitled the Daily
Free Press, which was issued as well as the weekly. On the first of April,
1853, the Free Press was purchased by Messrs. George W. and George G.
Benedict, who enlarged and greatly improved both weekly and daily. In
July, 1868, it was transferred to the Free Press Association, and issued as
a morning and evening paper, and in January, 1869, the Zimes, a morning
paper, was united with it, and the name changed to THE DAILY FREE
PRESS AND TIMES.

THE VERMONT AUTOGRAPH AND REMARKER.—This paper
may perhaps not be worthy of mention except as a curiosity. It is a small
sheet, with a limited circulation, printed with a pen, by James Johns, of
Huntington. It has been issued from time to time for many years, and its
files contain much valuable historical matter.

So far as we have been able to learn, this forms a complete list of all the
newspapers ever published in the county. All of them, unless especially
mentioned as otherwise, were published and printed at Burlington.

ABORIGINAL OCCUPANCY.

The territory embraced within the present limits of Vermont, previous to any
settlement by Europeans, was claimed as a hunting-ground by several tribes
of Indians who were hostile to each other, consequently it was often the scene
of their savage wars, and constant invasion prevented its being made their
permanent home. Indeed, it was Champlain’s nominal purpose to help the
Canadian Indiansin their war with those in the region of the lake, that first
brought him upon its water.

The Iroquois, or Five Nations, was a powerful confederacy composed of
several tribes of Indians, who had planted themselves in Western New York,
on the shores of Lakes Ontario and Erie, and were the inveterate enemies of
the Canadian Indians. Champlain started from Quebec with about one hun-
dred of the Canadian Indians, in 1609, and proceeded up the lake to the
vicinity of Crown Point, where, on the western shore, as they had expected,
they met a large party of Iroquois, who defied them. But, when Champlain,
at a single fire of his arquebus, killed two chiefs and mortally wounded
another, and another Frenchman fired from another quarter, they fled in
alarm, ending the first battle fought on Lake Champlain.

The origin of the Indian cannot be determined by history, nor will caleu-
lation ever arrive at a probable certainty. Some writers have declared that
they were indigenous, whilst others maintain the opinion of their migration ;
and both classes, with perhaps a few exceptions, consider them the extreme
of human depravity, and outcasts of the world. Now, while we do not dis-
pute this sentiment entirely, let us, in justice, glance at the other side of the
question. Criminations have been thrown upon them, they have been driven
from their possessions, then in turn driven from others they had obtained, and
thus, over and over again, the quietness of their dwellings has been interrupted
by insolent invaders. But above all, dissipation, introduced among them by
their civilized neighbors, has plunged them still deeper into wretchedness and
barbarity. They are human beings, fashioned, like you and I, inthe “image
of their Creator.” Might they not, then, had other treatment and circum-
stances been brought to bear, be other than the degraded people they now are?

A branch of the Abenaquis tribe of Indians were the aboriginal occupants
of this section of the country, previous to its settlement by the whites; and,
indeed, they lingered upon their rightful soil, at the mouth of the Lamoille
River, and thence north along the Missisquoi Bay, for a long while after the
French and English had taken possession and commenced the settlement of
the country to the north and south of them. Still, as we have stated before,
neither this nor any other locality in the State, seems to have been the red
man’s permanent home; at least not within historic times. But Vermont
was rather a territory to which all laid claim, and was used in common asa
hunting, fishing, and battle ground, by the St. Francis tribe on the north, their
principal settlement being at Montreal, or Hockhelaga, as it was then called;
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 61

the Narraganset on the east, their principal settlement on the Merrimac River,
N. H.; the Pepuquoits on the south, inhabiting the northwestern part of Con-
necticut; and the Iroquois, or Mohawks, as they were commonly called, on
the southwest, their principal settlement being at Schenectady, on the Mo-
hawk River, N. Y.

In several localities throughout the county, however, there has been found
indubitable proof that the Indians have, at some period, resided here in con-
siderable numbers, and for many years. In Shelburne, on the eastern side of
the mouth of the river, a field of about twenty-five acres was found by the
early settlers, which showed undoubted evidences of having been cleared and
cultivated for a length of time, as there were no stumps of the original tim-
ber. This clearing was in a square form, and had a heavy growth of the
original timber on all sides, and two large trees of the original growth left
standing in the center. There were numerous heaps or piles of stones on the
field, which must have been carried there, probably for camp fires, as there
were no stones in the soil. This clearing was evidently abandoned by the sav-
ages a number of years before any settlement was made by the whites, as it
was covered with a thick growth of small trees, unlike the surrounding timber,
apparently of about thirty years growth. Arrow heads, flints, and other articles
were also found in large numbers, which was conclusive evidence of its having
been occupied by savages for many years.

Near the mouth of the Lamoille River, in Colchester, also was found the
remains of an Indian encampment and burial place, together with a large
mound, where the skeletons and bones of the race, buried in their usual sit-
ting posture, were exhumed, and numerous arrow heads and other Indian
relics found, among which was the famous “Indian urn,” found by Capt.
John Johnson, in 1825. This urn, which is now in the museum of the Uni-
versity of Vermont, is about eight inches in height, and will hold about four
quarts, is highly ornamented, and shows a considerable degree of skill in pot-
tery. Its antiquity is attested by the circumstances in which it was found,
it being covered with a flat stone, over which a large tree had grown, and had
been so long dead as to be nearly all rotten. A similar vessel, but much
larger, was found many years ago in Bolton. But these researches, however
interesting they may be to the antiquarian, can only lead to conjecture. The
Indian history of Vermont must ever remain as obscure as that which relates
to the origin of the race itself.

WHEN FIRST SETTLED BY THE WHITES.

In 1664, as mentioned on page 35, M. de Tracy, then Governor of New
France, entered upon his work of erecting a line of fortifications from the
mouth of the Sorrel to Lake Champlain, and during the following year ex-
tended the works up the lake. There is no direct evidence, but some circum-
stances which would seem to indicate that fortifications of some kind were
62 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

erected upon Colchester Point, at, or about this time. When the locality was
first settled, at least, itis claimed there were remains of fortifications of some
sort, and the ruins of other works and buildings to be found upon the Point.
Some of these remains are still visible; and it is represented that when the
first settlers came on, they ¢#e7 had the appearance of great antiquity. Upon
the old Porter place, an old chimney bottom and the remnants of the walls
of some buildings were then there. Various relics, such as leaden bullets,
partially decayed materials of iron, and pieces of silver and copper coin, have
also been found, all tending towards the theory that during this extension of
the old line of fortifications, one was established at this point, though there is
no written or traditionary account to this effect.

Should this hypothesis be correct, then, the first settlement of Chittenden
County dates back toa very remote antiquity. The first English settlers, how-
ever, who settled in the territory, were Ira Allen and Remember Baker.
They explored the country along the Winooski River, in the fall of 1772, and
came into the country to reside the following spring. Baker brought his
family with him; and Allen, being then a single man, resided in the family of
Baker, who was his uncle. They made their pitch at the lower falls on the
Winooski River, where, as a matter of security against the Yorkers and In-
dians, they constructed a block-house or fort, which they christened Fort
Frederick, and in which they lived. These were followed by other settlers
from time to time, until there were about forty families in the county at the
breaking out of the Revolution ; but they left for localities of greater security,
however, in 1776, all except Joseph Brown and family, who had settled on
Brown’s River, in Jericho. The attack on Brown’s house, his capture by
the Indians, etc., are spoken of in connection with the sketch of that town;
indeed, it is not necessary to speak of the early settlement and settlers at this
point only in a general way, as the details are given in the sketches of the
various towns wherein they located. Suffice it to say, then, that on the return
of peace, in 1783, Stephen Lawrence was the first to return with his family,
and during the same year most of the settlers returned to their farms, bring-
ing many new settlers with them, who were in turn joined by others, until at
the taking of the first census, in 1791, the county had a population of 3,875.

LAND TITLE CONTROVERSY.

Except in the instances already mentioned, no settlement was made within
the present limits of the State of Vermont, owing to its distance from the
English settlements on the seacoasts, and from the French on the St. Law-
rence, until 1724. In 1716, however, Massachusetts granted a tract of land,
in the southeastern part of the State, containing more than one hundred thous-
and acres, upon which, eight years later, the settlement of Fort Dummer was
commenced. At this time the fort was supposed to be within the limits
and under the jurisdiction of Massachusetts; but a controversy soon after
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 63

arose between New Hampshire and Massachusetts, relative to the boundary
line between these States, or Provinces, as they then were, which, after a long
and tedious struggle, was adjusted, March 5, 1740, when King George II.
determined that, ‘the northern boundary of the province of Massachusetts
be, a similar curve line, pursuing the course of the Merrimac River, at three
miles distance, on the north side thereof, beginning at the Atlantic Ocean,
and ending at a point due north of Pawtucket falls; anda straight line drawn
from thence, due west, until it meets with his Majesty’s other governments,”
This line was run in 1741, and has ever since been admitted as the boundary
line between Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

By this decision, and the establishment of this line, the government of
New Hampshire concluded that their jurisdiction extended as far west as
Massachusetts had claimed and exercised, that is, within twenty miles of
Hudson River. It was also well known, both in Great Britain and America,
that the King had repeatedly recommended to the assembly of New Hamp-
shire, to make provision for the support of Fort Dummer; and Fort Dum-
mer was located upon the west side of the river, thus proving that the jurisdic-
tion of New Hampshire extended west of the Connecticut ; but how far west
had not been particularly inquired into, the twenty mile line from the Hudson
being taken for granted, and silently acquiesced in by the King.

The land lying between the Connecticut and New York was the most fer-
tile and productive in the State, and it soon began to attract the attention of
pioneers. Accordingly, Benning Wentworth, then governor of New Hamp-
shire, in 1749, made a grant of a township six miles square, located twenty
miles east of Hudson River, and six miles north of the Massachusetts line, to
which, in allusion to his own name, he gave the name of Bennington. Dur-
ing the following four or five years he made several other grants east of the
Connecticut River. But in 1754, the breaking out of hostilities between
France and Great Britain put a stop to all these operations, and no other
grants were made until after the close of the war. During its progress, how-
ever, the New England troops cut a road through from Charlestown, in New
Hampshire, to Crown Point, N. Y., and were frequently passing through these
lands, and thus many became acquainted with their rare fertility and agricul-
tural possibilities. The war was closed in September, 1760, by the taking of
Montreal, and the whole of Canada became annexed to Great Britain. Dur-
ing the following month King George III. acceded to the throne of England ;
and to his obstinacy, bigotry, and perhaps ignorance, is owing the troubles
that sprang up between New Hampshire and New York, indirectly leading to
the subsequent revolt, in 1775, by which England lost one of the finest
countrys upon which the sun ever shone.

Applications for grants were rapidly made to Governor Wentworth, so that
in the year 1761, not less than sixty charters were issued, granting as many
townships of six miles square, and in two years more the number amounted
to one hundred and thirty-eight. The territory began to be known by the
64 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

name of the New Hampshire Grants, and the number of actual settlers soon
grew to be quite large. The forests began to disappear, giving place to large
fields of grain, and all gave token of a prosperous, happy future. But a dark
day dawned upon this peaceful scene. A proclamation was issued by Gov,
Colden, of New York, April 10, 1765, giving a copy of an order issued by
George III., in council July 20, 1764, stating that “the western bank of the
Connecticut should thereafter be regarded as the eastern boundary of New
York,” and notifying his Majesty’s subjects to govern themselves accordingly.

This had been brought about by the jealousy and cupidity of New York,
who had just awakened to a knowledge of the richness of the territory. Their
whole claim was based upon an old charter issued by Charles IIL, in 1664,
making an extraordinary grant to his brother, the Duke of York, containing,
among other parts of America, “all the lands from the west of the Connecti-
cut River to the east side of Delaware Bay.” This grant was entirely incon-
sistent with the previous charters, which had been granted to Massachusetts
and Connecticut, and neither of them had ever admitted it to have any
effect, with regard to the lands which they had settled, or claimed to the west
of the said river.

Although the settlers of the grants were alarmed and displeased at this
change, they had no idea it would amount to more than a change of juris-
diction, and supposed their titles to lands would be perfectly secure. But,
ere long, new grantees began to appear, with charters issued by the authori-
ties of New York, who ousted, or attempted to, the original grantees. But
in thisthey found a difficult task. The settlers of Vermont were a bold,
hardy people, law-abiding, but possessing a peculiarly acute sense of jus-
tice, and sturdy in defending their rights. Their allegience to King George
III. soon became merely nominal, as they obeyed only the mandates of their
own conventions and town meetings. The New York claimants would come
on, present their claims, and oust those already occupying the land, if possi-
ble, while they in turn would be driven off by the settlers, leading to much
violence and outrage on both sides. One party was called “land pirates” and
“land thieves,” while the people of the grants were, in turn, stigmatized as
“rebels” and ‘‘ outlaws.”

In these scenes of violence and opposition, Ethan Allen placed himself at
the head of the settlers of the Grants. Bold, enterprising, and ambitious,
wielding the pen and the sword with almost equal facility, though rash and
indiscreet, withal, he soon made himself and his “Green Mountain Boys” a
foe whom the Yorkers learned to respect, in point of arms at least. His grave,
marked by that tall Tuscan shaft in a Burlington cemetery, is now visited by
hundreds each year, who thus pay their tribute of respect to the memory of
the bold, patriotic, yet rough mountain hero. Associated with Allen were
Seth Warner and Remember Baker, in courage and bravery not a whit behind
their leader. Baker has already been spoken of as one of the first settlers of
this county, coming here with his uncle, Col, Ira Allen, His useful life was

while in a skirmish with Indians near St. John, in August, 1775. Warner
was cool, firm, steady, resolute, and fully determined that the laws of New
York, respecting the settlers, never should be carried into execution. At
the beginning of the trouble, when an officer came to take him as a rioter,
he considered it as an affair of open hostility, and defended himself, attacked,
wounded and disarmed the officer, but, with the spirit of a soldier, spared
his life.

We will relate one instance to show something of the spirit of the times:
A Scotchman, by the name of Will Cockburn, was sent out by New York
parties to survey their claims, and from the following extracts from a letter
written to his employers, in 1771, it would seem that he at least met with

difficulties :—
ALBANY, September ro, 1771.

“Sirn:— * * * * * After being the second time stopped in Social-

in vain to persist any longer, as they were resolved at all events to stop us.

Cockburn was the second time stopped by Mead and Johnson, at Rutland,
and by other parties threatened with death, and their threats appear to have
prevented him from making further attempts under the patent of Social-

borough. The next summer, however, he was found, with a number of his

assistants, in this county, at Bolton, and was arrested by Remember Baker,
Seth Warner, and others, who, after breaking his compass and chain, took
him and his party to Castleton for trial before a court of the settlers, where
he was finally released.

‘Beech sealing” was a favorite mode of punishment awarded the obnoxious
New York officials. This consisted of tying the victim to atree and admin-
istering a certain number of lashes with a beech gad. The last chastisement
of this sort was inflicted on one Benjamin Hough, who occupied land under
the odious title of Socialborough, and for a long time had been looked upon
with disfavor by the Green Mountain Boys; butat last he was invested by
New York with the power of a magistrate, and attempted the duties of his
office. He was subsequently forrnally served with a copy of a resolution of
the convention at Manchester, on April 12 and 13, 1774, certified by Jonas
Fay, clerk, by which it was declared that whoever should, in the then situa-
tion of affairs, “‘ until his majesty’s pleasure in the premises should be further
known,” presume to take a commission of the peace from the New York govern-
ment, should “ be deemed an enemy to their country and the common cause.”
He was also verbally warned to desist from the further exercise of his official
authority, and threatened with punishment if he persisted. To these warn-
ings he paid no heed, but continued as active and troublesome as ever. The
indignation against him became very great, and it was resolved to make such
an example of him as would not only effectually silence him, but deter others
from the commission of like offences. He was accordingly seized by a body
of his neighbors, placed in a sleigh, and carried about thirty miles, to Sunder-
land, where he was kept for three days under strict guard, until Monday,
January 30, 1775, when, the leading Green Mountain Boys being assembled,
he was brought to trial, the court appointed for the purpose consisting of
Ethan Allen, Seth Warner, Robert Cochran, Peleg Sunderland, James Mead,
Gideon Warren, and Jesse Sawyer. His judges being seated, he was put
upon his defence, which being held insufficient, he was found guilty and sen-
tenced ‘‘to be tied to a tree and receive two hundred lashes on the naked
back, and then as soon as he should be able, should depart the New Hamp-
shire Grants and not return again till his majesty’s pleasure should be known
in the premises, on pain of receiving five hundred lashes.” This sentence
was read to him from a paper by Allen, and was immediately put into execu-
tion, after which he was given a pass to depart to New York, which read as
follows :—

“* SUNDERLAND, January 3, 1775.

‘This may certify to the inhabitants of the New Hampshire Grants, that Ben-
jamin Hough hath this day received full punishment for his crimes committed
heretofore against this country, and our inhabitants are ordered to give him
the said Hug free and unmolested passport towards the city of New York,
or the westward of our grants, he behaving as becometh. Given under our
hands the day and date aforesaid.

CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 67

Thus the people of the Grants struggled on until the breaking out of the
Revolution, when the greater and common trouble consumed the lesser. On
the 24th and 25th of September, 1776, one of the conventions of the Green
Mountain Boys was held at the house of Cephas Kent, in Dorset, at which it
was resolved “to take suitable measures as soon as may be, to declare the
New Hampshire Grants a separate district. This was the germ which soon
expanded and grew into the free and independent State of Vermont—the
only State in the Union, except Texas, which was admitted by petition of her
people. The delegates to this convention from Chittenden County were
Col. Thomas Chittenden, of Williston, after whom the county was named,
and who subsequently became Vermont’s first governor, and Lieut. Ira Allen,
of Colchester. The close of the war found Vermont an independent State,
to which Yew York relinquished all right and title upon payment of $30,000.
Thus ended “the trials that tried men’s souls” trials which nerved the Green
Mountain Boys to declare and maintain their independence, and to emerge
a free and sovereign State.

REVOLUTIONARY WAR.

The end of the long struggle between England and France had arrived—a
glorious end for the British lon. Spain had paid for her indiscretion by dis-
gorging the beautiful island of Cuba, which was exchanged for the present
State of Florida. It would seem, then, that covered with glory, enriched by
the addition to her territory of Canada and Florida, England would feel com-
pensated for the debt she had incurred. But it was directly the opposite. No
sooner was peace declared than she determined to get back from her Ameri-
can possessions what she had expended in defending them. Accordingly,
we find the history of the next twelve years, from the treaty of peace in 1763
to 1775, a continuous narrative of unwise, ungenerous attempts on the part
of the mother country to increase her revenues at the expense of her col-
onies, and on the part of the colonies, of spirited and united resistance to
these attempts.

The colonies would willingly have borne part of the load, had they been
allowed a voice in laying the duties or taxes to be imposed. But they in-
sisted that taxation without representation was an infringement on the rights
of freemen ; that the power to tax them should be vested in their own col-
onial assemblies,—or that, if Parliament were to exercise it, they should be
represented in Parliament. To the folly of George III., then, strengthened
by the tyranny of the British Parliament, who, in his name, allowed his lands
to be granted twice over, and the first grantees to be persecuted as felons
and outlaws; who would do nothing for his people in America without being
exhorbitantly paid ; by the passage of the notorious Stamp Act, in 1765, and
the Boston Port Bill, in 1774, is owing to the estrangement and revolt in
1775, which took practical development at Lexington, at Bunker Hill, at Bos-

ton, in the expedition of Arnold through the wilds of Maine, in the taking of
Ticonderoga, and in the co-operation of Montgomery, by the way of Lake
Champlain, Montreal and St. Lawrence, with Arnold under the frowning
walls of Quebec.

The people of the New Hampshire Grants, as may well be supposed,
entered with and especially hearty zeal into this contest for American Inde-
pendence. Their schooling had been such as to render them an exceedingly
undesirable foe to meet. A large proportion of the settlers had served in the
French and Indian war, and during the twelve or fifteen years that intervened
had been almost continuously at strife with New York, leading to a feeling
of deadly hatred against King George and the British Parliament. It is not
strange, then, that the Green Mountain Boys were soon both feared and re-
spected by their adversaries. The few who had settled in Chittenden County,
left, as previously mentioned, on the approach of Burgoyne; no battle was
fought within its limits, and except one or two incursions by Indians and.
Tories, no blood was shed (see sketches of Colchester and Shelburne). But
subsequent to the war, the Green Mountain Boy’s leader and idol, Ethan
Allen, made his home here, therefore it is proper to give the events that occurred
in its immediate vicinity, more than a passing notice, though they constitute
no part of its local history, and are, withal, well known subjects of general
history.

Haldibrand, the governor of Crown Point and Ticonderoga, had announced
to the government, in 1773, that the fort at Crown Point ‘was entirely de-
stroyed,” and that Ticonderoga was ina “ruinous condition,” and that both
“could not cover fifty men in winter.” The appeal to arms, which in April,
1775, had sounded from the plains of Lexington, seems to have suggested,
simultaneously, to various patrotic individuals in the colonies, the idea of
capturing these important fortresses in their dilapidated and exposed con-
dition. Members of the provincial legislature of Connecticut, on their own
individual responsibility, raised funds to effect this object, and appointed a
committee to proceed to the scene, and to attempt the execution of the plan.
In the county of Berkshire a small force was collected, but at Bennington the
fearless spirit and powerful influence of Ethan Allen was enlisted in the
enterprise. An intrepid band of two hundred and seventy volunteers, all of
whom except forty belonged to the Green Mountains, were collected at Cas-
tleton, Rutland County, on the 7th of May. At this moment Benedict
Arnold, invested with plenary powers from the Massachusetts committee of
safety to accomplish the same object, appeared on the scene, and claimed the
command of the expedition. A contest ensued which threatened to defeat the
whole design, but was terminated by the troops refusing to proceed except
under the leadership of Allen, their tried and cherished leader. Arnold was
constrained to yield, and joined the force as an aid to the commander. The
garrison of Ticonderoga was slumbering in profound security. To procure means
of crossing the lake, Col. Herrick had been sent to Skeensboro, and Remem-
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 69

ber Baker was to join them with boats from Otter Creek; but when the
troops reached Shoreham, neither had appeared. Seizing such vessels as
could be procured, Allen boldly decided to cross. The landing was effected
at a little cove, a mile north of the fort. When the morning dawned only
eighty-three men had reached the western shore; yet Allen, knowing how
much delay would imperil the issue, decided to advance at once to the assault.
The story need not be repeated. The fortress, which had cost so much blood
and treasure, was won by the little band in a bloodless triumph, “in the name
of Jehovah and the Continental Congress,” on the roth of May, 1775.

Warner arrived soon after the place surrendered, and taking command of
a party, set off for the reduction of Crown Point, which was garrisoned only
by a sergeant and twelve men. They surrendered upon the first summons,
and Warner took possession of the fort. Skeensboro was also taken, the
same day, by another party, and Maj. Skeene made prisoner. Allen and
Arnold started soon after for St. Johns, where an armed sloop was lying,
Arnold in command of a schooner, and Allen in command of a batteaux.
They both set out together upon the expedition, but a fresh wind springing
up from the south, the schooner outsailed the batteaux, and Arnold soon ar-
rived at St. Johns, where he surprised and captured the sloop. The wind
immediately shifting to the north, Arnold set sail with his prize, and met
Allen with his batteaux at some distance from St. Johns. Thus in the course
of a few days, and by a few daring individuals, was Lake Champlain and its
important fortresses secured to the Americans.

On the 21st of August, Montgomery set out for Canada. The rest is well
known---Montgomery’s triumph, until he reached Quebec, where reverses met
him and one-half the American forces slain, among them the gallant officer
himself, December 31, 1775, followed by the subsequent retreat of the Ameri-
cans from Canada, and the apprehended advance of Carlton, spreading uni-
versal consternation and panic among the settlers in the environs of the
lake.

After their retreat from Canada, the American army evacuated Crown
Point, burned all the erections, destroyed all the public property that could
not be carried with them, and gathered at Ticonderoga. A large and well
appointed British army was concentrated at St. Johns, who, to effect a suc-
cessful advance, found it was necessary to secure a naval preponderance upon
the lake. Six vessels of a large class, which had been constructed in England,
were taken apart at the foot of the rapids on the Sorel, the materials
transported to St. Johns, and there rebuilt in the summer of 1776. Other
vessels of various dimensions were also constructed with the utmost celerity.
By these energetic efforts a fleet of thirty-one vessels, and carrying in their
armament from one to eighteen guns, was prepared for active service on the
ist of October of that year. ‘This fleet was navigated by seven hundred vete-
ran seamen, and armed by a heavy corps of artillery.

Congress was not insensible to the vital emergency of the occasion, but

possessed means totally inadequate for the magnitude of the crisis. The
timber required for the construction of a flotilla was yet standing in the forest,
and was to be cut, prepared and transported, to the ship-yard at Ticonderoga,
almost unaided by the appliances of art or mechanism. Its equipments were
to be conveyed a long distance, over roads new and almost impracticable. The
ship carpenters who must construct the vessels were employed in urgent duties
in the navy-yards upon the coasts. Stimulated rather than oppressed by all
these adverse combinations, the energies of Arnold created and equipped a
flotilla of fifteen vessels, with an aggregate battery of fifty-five guns, and
manned by three hundred and fifty gallant and resolute men, but nearly all of
whom were totally inexperienced in naval expeditions. The exigency invoked
heroism and sacrifices, and notwithstanding the great disparity in every ele-
ment of strength, Arnold fearlessly threw his little armament across the path
of the invaders. The fleets met on the 11th of October, in a narrow strait
between Valcour Island and the mainland. During four hours the conflict
continued with terrific fury, and was ennobled by deeds of heroic and exalted
daring, unsurpassed in the annals of naval warfare. Arnold, levelling almost
every gun in own vessel, conducted the battle with the highest skill and the
the most determined courage, until night terminated the engagement. One
of the British gondolas was sunk, and another, with all its crew of sixty men,
was blown up. An American schooner was also sunk and a gondola burnt,
while the entire fleet was shattered and disabled. The disproportion in the
strength of the fleets was too vast to justify a maintainance of the conflict.
Arnold attempted to effect an escape to Crown Point, by boldly passing
through the British fleet under cover of a dark and foggy night. His retreat
was revealed to the vigilant enemy by the earliest dawn, anda prompt pur-
suit ensued.

A solitary rock which stands in the broad lake, in the early gloom was
mistaken by the British for an American vessel, and a cannonade was opened
upon it. It is still called “Carleton’s prize.” Arnold was overtaken near
Otter Creek, and sustained for another four hours, with his single galley, and
and five gondolas, a bloody combat with the British fleet, in protecting the
retreat of the remainder of his flotilla and crew from becoming trophies to
the enemy, he ran the vessels upon the shore and blew them up. Their
charred wrecks for many years remained upon the beach at Panton, memo-
rials of the bravery and gallant deeds of he whose name was afterwards con-
signed to infamy, and whose wretched after life was closed by death in the
garret of a London tenement.

Next came the invasion of Burgoyne, the evacuation of Ticonderoga, in
1777, followed by the subsequent battles of Hubbardton and Bennington, and
the final surrender of Cornwallis, at Yorktown, October 19, 1781, virtually
ending the war. The settlers who had been driven off Began to return, and
the trader’s sloop soon was passing up and down the lake, intent upon their
peaceful avocations, over the very course taken by Arnold when pursued by
the British at the memorable battle of Lake Champlain,
CHITTENDEN COUNTY. 71

WAR OF 1812.

The yoke of the mother country having been thrown off, the American
colonies rapidly advanced in progress. Vermont expanded into a free
and independent State, and finally was annexed to the Union, March 4, 1791.
In the meantime, the French nation, led by Napoleon Bonaparte, had arrived
at the zenith of military glory, and was giving England great cause for fear
and trembling. England, in turn, seeming to forget that her offspring had ar-
rived at maturity and was quite able to protect its own institutions, continued
her acts of tyranny. Looking upon herself as mistress of the ocean, during her
wars with Napoleon, she utterly disregarded the rights of the United States
as a neutral nation. Her cruisers would stop and search American vessels,
and seize such able-bodied seamen as were needed, on the pretext that they
were British subjects. An American frigate, not in condition to resist, having
been subjected to this indignity almost within sight of an American port,
after receiving several broadsides for denying the right of search, the Presi-
dent issued a proclamation ordering all British ships-of-war to quit the waters
of the United States. Congress also laid an embargo on American vessels,
detaining them at home, but afterward substituted a non-intercourse act,
prohibiting trade with Great Britain. All intercourse between this State and
the people of Canada was prohibited, without a permit from the Governor,
under a penalty of $1,000 fine and imprisonment at hard labor in the State
penitentiary for the term of seven years.

Notwithstanding all this, England persisted in her offensive course. All
hopes of obtaining consessions on the impressment question from her were
at length abandoned. George III., who was still on the throne, had become
insane, and the men who managed affairs were as short-sighted as his ad-
visers had been forty years before, whose folly had provoked the Revolution.
Longer submission to their arrogant claims was deemed unworthy of a free
nation, and war was formally declared by the United States, June 18, 1812.

The majority of the people of Vermont considered the declaration of war
rash and imprudent, believing that the required issue could have been brought
about by legislation ; but notwithstanding this feeling, the general assembly
of the State passed the following resolution :—

“The constituted authorities of our country having declared war between
the United States and Great Britain and her dependencies, it is our duty as
citizens to support the measure ; otherwise we should identify ourselves with
the enemy, with no other difference than that of locality. We therefore
pledge ourselves to each other and to our government, that with our individ-
ual exertions, our example and influence, we will support our government and
country in the present contest, and rely on the great Arbiter of events for a
favorable result.”

After the close of the Revolution, both Gov. Chittenden and Ethan Allen
located in Chittenden County, facts sufficient in themselves to render the
92 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

 

locality one of importance, not to mention its fertile soil, and elegant harbor
afforded at Burlington Bay. War being declared, then, Burlington was at
once established as the seat of operationsin Vermont. Troops were stationed
here under the command of Gen. Macomb, and Gen. Wade Hampton, con-
sisting of 4,000 men. Soon after, Col. Clark went from here with 102 men
and attacked a British force at St. Armand, killed nine, wounded fourteen,
and took roi prisoners, and brought ther to Burlington. During the same
year, the public stores at Plattsburgh were removed to Burlington, and a bat-
tery planted on a commanding position, now known as Battery Park, as the
enemy threatened Plattsburgh. Their fleet came up the lake and fired a few
shots, but soon retired when the cannon from the shore commenced playing
upon them.

In the summer of 1814, the British, having concentrated 14,000 men near
the foot of Lake Champlain, undertook an invasion of the States, somewhat
on the plan of Burgoyne in 1777. There had been skirmishing throughout
the season ; but when in August most of the American troops were transferred
to the Niagara frontier, Gen. Prevost improved the opportunity to march
upon Plattsburgh. Here Gen. Macomb, in command of the Americans, had
made all the preparation in his power for a vigorous defence ; but he had only
2,000 efficient men, and lacked ordnance, while his works were still incom-
plete. Commodore McDonough had also strained every nerve to make ready
for the British fleet, which was to act in conjunction with the army. His
flagship was launched within forty days from the time that the trees used in
its construction were standing in the forest. Despite all his exertions, how-
ever, in the number of his vessels, guns, and men, he was inferior to the
enemy.

The British army, having reached Plattsburgh, was there held in check by
Macomb, who, strengthened by the brave militia of Vermont and New York,
had taken a position on the south side of the Saranac River. But the fate of the
battle was to be decided on the water. On the 11th of September, the Brit-
ish flotilla drew near to Plattsburgh, and McDonough joined battle, after
having on the deck of his vessel invoked the blessing of God upon his cause.
Two hours of terrible fighting resulted in victory for the Americans as signal as
had been that of Perry’son Lake Erie. The British commander, who had
boasted that with his flag-ship alone he could whip the whole Yankee fleet,
was killed, and his entire squadron struck. Thus ended the Battle of Platts-
burgh Bay, one of the great naval engagements of the world.

The British commissioners, at first unreasonable, lowered their tone after
the battle of Plattsburgh and the subsequent battle of Baltimore, and on the
24th of December, 1815, a treaty of peace was signed at Ghent, in Belgium,
ending the war. Once more the Green Mountain Boys settled down to the
peaceful avocations of life, to be aroused again not until many years after,
when the terrible civil struggle of 1861, called them again into the field. Some
of the old veterans still are living in the county, though few, a remnant of the

gallant ones who gave England her final lessonin Yankee pluck. Of these,
the following names occur to us: John B. Hollenbeck, of Burlington; Joseph
Weed, of Essex, who now resides with his son, E. B. Weed, at the age of
eighty-seven years ; andthe venerable John Nash, of Shelburne. During the
winter of 1812, McDonough’s fleet was anchored in Smith’s Bay, Shelbume,
and he and his staff boarded with Levi Comstock.

THE MEXICAN. WAR.

Texas, analogous to Vermont, had declared herself a free and independent
State, and by petition of the people was annexed to the United States. Out
of this annexation grew the war with Mexico. The old southwestern boundary
of Texas had been the Neuces River, but the Texans had claimed to the Rio
Grande ; and when the United States authorities offered to adjust the bound-
ary by negotiation, Mexico rejected the proposal with contempt. The United
States government, therefore, directed General Zachary Taylor, “Old Rough
and Ready,” to occupy the disputed territory. This he did with a small
force, taking post at the mouth of the Rio Grande—a movement which
Mexico accepted as a declaration of war.

The necessity of this war was not, as is well known, generally concurred in by
the people of Vermont, and consequently did not arouse any great degree of
sympathy or enthusiasm. But soon after the first battle was fought,—Palo
Alto, May 8, 1846, in which the Americans were so victorious,—the martial
spirit of the Green Mountain Boys was aroused from its apathy, and the
recruiting of a regiment was soon after commenced. A list of the loyal sons
of Chittenden County who took part in this difficulty, we are sorry to say,
we cannot furnish ; but from the fragments of their record we have been
able to glean, we learn that, though small in number, they sustained well the
reputation of their county, and did their full share towards annexing to the
United States the rich territory of California and New Mexico, of which Cali-
fornia alone yielded, during a period of twenty years, $900,000,000.00 worth
of gold. Soon after the battle of Mexico, a treaty was agreed on at Guada-
lupe Hidalgo, and on July 4, 1848, peace was proclaimed.

THE WAR OF THE UNION.

This period of peace lasted thirteen years—years of great improvement in
the condition of Chittenden County, a counterpart of the prosperity enjoyed
by the whole State. Indeed, the war with Mexico had scarcely disturbed
the even tenor of her way, as so few of her sons were engaged in the strife,
and the active scenes of which were so far removed. Except for display at
celebrations, or as curiosities, the old sword and musket were unseen.
The “Green Mountain Boys” had passed away to join the spirits of their
brave commanders, while their names were perpetuated alike in the annals
of history and romance. Their children and grandchildren were enjoying
74 CHITTENDEN COUNTY.

the bounties of the verdant fields they had struggled so hard to win; but
amid all the enervations of peace and plenty, the spirit and blood of such
men as Allen, Baker, Stark, and Warner, yet coursed in their veins, ready to
reveal its latent power, like the trained battle-horse, at the first clash of arms,

The morning of April 12th, 1861, dawned bright and fair, yet dense with
weight of woe that overspread the land. The fatal shot upon Sumpter had
been fired, and for the first time in its young life, since first unfurled to the
breeze o’er the decks of the “ Ranger,” proudly bearing its “emblem of per-
petuity,”—the wreath of thirteen stars,—the flag of the Union had been
desecrated.

The causes leading to this terrible civil war we need not repeat; the re.
sults are patent to every household in the broad land. To some, however,
the word “results” has a peculiar significance. It recalls to the memory of
the wife, the husband’s face so kind and true ; to the son and daughter, the
loved lineaments of their sire ; and to the parent, the noble form of their
bright and promising son, all of whom now are resting in the quiet church-
yard, or, mayhap, whose bones are bleaching in the sand that drained their
blood at the fearful carnage of Gettysburgh, Antietam, Fredericksburgh, or
other fields where perished so many of our noble dead. But, ye wives, parents,
brothers and sisters, the nation’s honored dead o’er whose graves you weep,
have left you a valuable legacy, a bequest in which none but you can share—
the glory that surrounds their names !

Vermont’s sons soon proved their “lineal descent from warlike men,” and
“The Green Mountain Boys” became again an honored title of the present,
adding lustre to the fame which already clustered about it. Of this band,
34,238 were sent to fight the battles of their country, and $9,087,352.40 of
Vermont’s treasure were expended in the cause. But her greatest treasure
was the 5,128 noble souls she sacrificed upon the altar of freedom, while
5,022 loyal ones were returned to their homes with shattered constitutions,
or maimed in body. Surely, a bountiful contribution towards the preserva-
tion of our “ Grand Republic.”

Chittenden County furnished its full quota of both men and means. The
first call was for one company, which in ten days’ time was furnished and on
its way, with others, towards the scene of strife. The streets of Burlington
again “echoed the tread of arméd men,” and the monument marking the
last resting place of Ethan Allen looked down upon the soldier’s tent and
marshalled host. During the war, the old fair ground, between North
Avenue, North Bend, East Pitkin and North streets, now the property of
Mr. Lemuel S. Drew, was used as a camp-ground, called Camp Fairbanks,
and the following regiments and companies were quartered here at different
times: 2d Vermont Infantry, Colonel Henry Whiting; rst Vermont Cav-
alry, Colonel L. B. Platt ; 17th Vermont Infantry, Colonel F. V. Randall ;
3d Vermont Light Battery, Captain Romeo H. Start, and two companies of
Frontier Cavalry.

OF THE 5,022 MEN DISCHARGED, 317 commissioned officers resigned, sixty-

one commissioned officers and 3,865 enlisted men were discharged for disa-
bility, forty-four commissioned officers and 596 enlisted men, for wounds.
received in action. Eleven enlisted men were paroled prisoners. Twenty-
eight commissioned officers and one hundred enlisted men were dishonorably
discharged.

Among the whole number of troops it is to be expected that some were
not true, and the records show that 2,219 men (mostly, if not all of whom
were substitutes,) deserted.

The Number of Engagements in which the several Regiments, Batteries and
detached troops, (officered in part by Chittenden County men,) bore honora-
ble part during the war, are as follows :—

IN CONCLUSION.

It may be well to state that the War Department accredited to this State
5,242men; being one thousand and four more than are shown by the State
records, and gives the State credit over the aggregate quota under all calls,
of fifteen hundred and thirteen men. ‘This discrepancy may be and proba-
bly is to be accounted for,” says Adjutant-General P. T. Washburn, “by en-
listments in organizations of other States, to the credit of this State, which
appear upon muster rolls of those organizations and were not reported to the
State.”
GAZETTEER OF TOWNs.

J5oLton , a mountainous town lying in the extreme eastern part of the

county, in 44° 25’ north lat., and long. 4° 9’ east from Washington,*
@ bounded north by Underhill, east by Waterbury and a part of Duxbury, in
Washington County, south by Huntington, and west by Richmond and Jericho,
was granted by Benning Wentworth, the Colonial Governor of New Hamp-
shire, under George the Third, to Thomas Darling and seventy-one associ-
ates, the charter bearing date June 7, 1763, and giving the township an area
of thirty-six square miles, or 23,040 acres. The form and provisions of the
charter are somewhat peculiar, at least they appear so to our modern ideas,
and as the same form was used in chartering most of the other towns of the
county, it may be well to insert a copy of the document at this point, in order
that certain restrictions, reservations, étc., hereafter alluded to, both in this
and following town sketches, may be the better understood :—

“ By his EXCELLENCY’S Command

The charter also bears the following endorsement, together with a list of
the grantees : —

“ His Excellency, Benning Wentworth, Esq.

“ A Tract of Land to contain Five Hundred Acres, marked B. W. on the
Plan, which is to be accounted two of the within shares.

“One whole share for the incorporated Society, for the propagation of the
Gospel in Foreign parts.

““One share for the Glebe for the Church of England, as by law established.

“One share for the first settled Minister of the Gospel, and one share for
the benefit of schools in said Town.

“ Province of Newhampshire,

“June 7, 1763.
““Theodore Atkinson, Sect’y.”

The area of the tract thus chartered remained the same until October 27,
1794, when it was increased by the annexation of aportion of Huntington; but
the law on this point proving rather deficient, and lawsuits relative to titles
arising in consequence, the same was re-annexed to Huntington, November 10,
1808, and all acts under the former law confirmed. Again, October 25, 1804, a
part of Bolton was annexed to Richmond. Other than these no changes
have occurred. The surface is very broken and mountainous, the rugged,
rocky piles, with their steep cliffs and dark gorges, afford many wild, romantic
points of scenery, so many, indeed, as to render the township noted in this
respect. Just south of the central part of the town the Winooski River crosses
the country in a nearly easterly and westerly direction, from which the moun-
tains rise abruptly on either side, forming a deep, narrow valley, with a bitter,
freezing temperature in winter, yet cool and moderate in the summer months,
in consequence of the valley’s forming a natural wind-guage through which
Old Boreas passes and repasses in the same direction ; the north and west
winds coming up the stream, while the south and east winds always blow
down stream. Duck Brook, from the north, after many windings and wild
TOWN OF BOLTON, 89

plunges over the cliffs, unites with the Winooski near the western line of the
town. Preston Brook, from the southern part of the territory, flows a north-
erly course, also uniting with the above mentioned river, while from the north,
east of Duck Brook, the waters of Joyner and Pinneo Brooks help to swell the
waters of the same stream. Mill Brook, upon which the village of West Bol-
ton is situated, rises in the northern part of the town and flows an easterly
course into Jericho. These, the principal streams, though there are many
others of minor importance possessing equally picturesque courses, afford
several very excellent mill privileges, of which more anon. The Joyner
Brook drains a broad valley some four miles in length, well studded with fine
maple, beech, spruce and hemlock, but which, from the nature of the country,
could not be gotten at by the woodman, except by the construction of roads
and passes at very great expense, until Nature, who is ever kind, opened the
way on the gth of April, 1852, through the medium of a heavy flood. The
water in the stream was very low on this date, and the sun arose clear and
bright, with no indication of the coming storm ; but in the latter part of the
day the air began to grow hot and oppressive, the dead calm relieved only by
occasional short angry whiffs, until towards evening the sky began to be over-
cast with clouds through which the sun shone with a fierce, angry glare, until
it was finally hidden by the deep murky cloud-banks. At about seven o'clock
the dark mass broke, firing its fiery bolts back and forth across’ the valley,
and pouring down upon the earth below such a deluge that in one hour’s
time the giant spruces and hemlocks that had stood for years upon the banks
of Joyner Brook, were torn up by the roots and swept onward to the river
below. Huge rocks, weighing hundreds of tons, were swept from their beds,
while in one instance a whole farm, known as the Stone farm, was almost en-
tirely destroyed, Mr. Stone and his family only escaping death by taking shel-
ter in the branches of a giant sycamore which stood in his door-yard, where
they remained until the flood had subsided. No lives were lost, while the
damage to property was amply compensated by the passage hewn out by the
torrent, which has since afforded an easy access to the rich timber-land be-
yond, from which there has been taken thousands of dollars worth of timber.

The whole town of Bolton may be considered as a lumbering district, the
principal part of the inhabitants being residents of the Winooski valley, and
the valley of Mill Brook, in the northwestern part of the township. Still,
there are many tracts of rich tillable land, and many fine, well cultivated
farms. The hillsides have a deep soil of marl and clay, while many of the
streams have upon either bank a rich intervale of sandy loam, second in fer-
tility to none in the county :—

The varieties of rocks are disposed principally in ledges extending in a north
and south direction. In the western portion of the town, for a distance of
two miles east from the town line, they are mostly of gveiss formation, while
in the residue of the township they are principally composed of ¢adcose schist,
though they vary much in their aspect and composition. There is much

chlorite and mica slate, the former containing the sulphuret of iron, and the
sulphuret of copper. Veins of granife are found in a moderate quantity,
from which some very fair specimens have been taken. In some parts, the
rocks have a greenish and chlorite hue, a conglomerate, so thick bedded and
compact as to forma very good building stone, though this variety is com-
paratively small. Gold has been found in several localities, but not in quan-
tities sufficiently great to warrant remunerative working.

In 1847, immigration and business interests received quite an impetus
from the building of the Vermont Central Railroad, which crosses the town
from east to west, following the northern bank of Winooski River. Work
was begun in the spring of the above mentioned year, the contract being
taken by Suel Belknap, of Burlington, who underlet this portion of the road
to Mr. Barker and others. Its construction was pushed rapidly for two or
three months, when funds began to run low, causing much discontent, and
some open outbreaks among the Irish workmen, about three hundred of
whom were employed; no blood was shed, however, though operations were
discontinued and the laborers lost the money due them. In March, 1849, the
enterprise was again taken up and pushed so vigorously that cars commenced
running in the following November.

In 1880, Bolton had a population of 678, was divided into six school dis-
tricts, and sustained five common schools, employing one male and seven
female teachers at an aggregate salary of $474.00. There were 151 pupils
attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools for the year,
ending October 31st, was $565.35, with Mr. F. W. Hall, superintendent.

West BoLron (p. 0.), a small village located in the northwestern part of
the town, on Mill Brook, contains a school-house, church (Baptist), store, saw-
mill, grist-mill, and about a dozen dwellings.

Bo.ton (p 0.), a hamlet and station on the Central Vermont Railroad,
is located in the central part of the town.

£. M. Colton's saw and shingle-mill, located on Mill Brook, manufactures
200,000 feet of lumber and 600,000 shingles annually. The saw-mill was
erected in 1848, to which the shingle-mill was added in 1852, and has done a
thriving business since, although it is operated but a part of the year, owing to
low water. Mr. Colton employs four hands.

D. W. Tracy's saw-mill, \ocated on Joyner Brook, is engaged in cutting
common lumber, turning out 200,000 feet annually. The first mill erected
on this site was built by Whitcomb & Willard, the property coming into
the present owner’s hands in 1872. He immediately substituted a circular
saw for the old style of machinery, and also added a shingle-mill, though he
has abandoned the use of the latter for the past few years, devoting all his
time to the manufacture of common lumber.

J. G. Tomlinson's butter tub and cheese box manufactory was built by W.
A. Hall in 1860, and came into Mr. Tomlinson’s possession about four years
ago. He employs from five to twelve men, manufacturing 12,000 butter tubs
TOWN OF BOLTON. gt

 

and about the same number of cheese boxes annually, besides doing consid-
erable other work in sawing, etc.

C.P. & G. W. Stevens, in connection with Spaulding & Larned, are largely
engaged in the manufacture of lumber, on road 4. The Messrs. Stevens
furnish the logs and convey the lumber to the depot, employing twenty-five
men and ‘teams in this capacity, while Spaulding & Larned attend to the
sawing, the mill being operated by steam-power. Every facility for the rapid
and economical manufacture of lumber has been brought into use, and they
consequently do a large and profitable business.

From the date of the charter, 1763, up to the year 1770, we have no record
that there was any meeting of the proprietors called, or that anything towards
the survey or settlement of the town was done. But during this year, ac-
cording to the records, the first proprietors’ meeting was warned, and met
therefore at the dwelling of Samuel Canfield, of New Milford, Conn., on the
roth day of May, when Samuel Averill, of Kent, was chosen clerk. This
meeting was adjourned to the fourth Tuesday in September, when it was held
at the house of Mr. Averill, in Kent. Other meetings were soon after held, and
steps were being rapidly taken towards the settlement of their possessions, when
the breaking out of the Revolution put a stop to their proceedings, as in the
troubled times of that period it was impossible to attempt a settlement with
any degree of safety to the pioneers. No white man had disturbed the quiet
solitude of the forest, no roads had penetrated its solemn depths, except per-
haps here and there an Indian trail, left bythe Redmen in their numerous
incursions in search of game, when, during the Revolution and soon after the
burning of Royalton, a party of twenty-four, with John Barnet at their head,
started from Piedmount, on the Connecticut River, to explore the wilderness
down the Winooski River as far as the shore of Lake Champlain. Passing
over an Indian trail through this town into Richmond, they were there
attacked by a party of Indians and Tories, and their leader, Mr. Barcet, killed.
This is the first record we have of any white man’s visit to Bolton. Soon
after the close of the war, however, settlement was commenced Ly John and
Robert Kennedy, Peter Dilse, Amos Palmer, Noah Dewey, Augustus Levague,
Jabes Jones, Daniel Pinneo, James Craig, John Preston, John Moore,
Robert Stinson, and Samuel Barnet. At the tak’ng of the first census, in
1791, the inhabitants numbered eighty-eight, which, in 1800, had increased
to 219.

The first town meeting was held at the house of James Moore, a quaint,
question-loving Yankee, the first hotel keeper in the town, on the second
Tuesday in March, 1794, at which meeting Samuel Bell was chosen modera-
tor; Jabez Jones, town clerk ; Francis Joyner, William Rogers, and Samuel
Bell, selectmen ; Robert Kennedy, constable ; and James Moore, town treas-
urer. The first representative after the organization of the town was Jabez
Jones, elected at a meeting held on the first Tuesday in September, 1794,
though the town had been represented before it was regularly organized, the
Q2 TOWN OF BOLTON.

 

first representative being Samuel Bell, chosen in 1795. The first justice was
Stephen Royce, chosen in 1794, and continued in office eleven years. Among
others who held the office for a number of years was John Pinneo, thirty-nine
years ; Samuel B. Kennedy, twenty-eight years ; Moses L. Colton, twenty-
five years; Asa Stockwell, twenty-four years, and John White, twelve years,
Rev. William L. Hurlburt was the first settled minister, and received the minis-
terial lot provided by charter.

John Kennedy, one of the first-settlers of the town, a native of Massa-
chusetts, was an old hero of the Revolution, personally acquainted with Gen.
Washington, and was with Allen at the taking of Ticonderoga, receiving
$80.00 as his share of the prize taken from the British. After the close of
the war, he purchased land in Waterbury, worked there during the summer
and fall, harvested his corn and put it in a crib, and then returned to his
family in Newbury. On his return the following spring, he found his corn had
been stolen, and that there were adverse claims upon his land, proving his
title worthless. He then removed to Bolton, where he resided until his death,
in 1820, in his seventy-seventh year.

John Morse, a native of Massachusetts, came to Waterbury in 1782, when
there were but few houses in that town. During the next season he removed
to Bolton, and located upon the farm now included within the John Pinneo
estate. His family consisted of wife and five children. Joseph, the fourth
son, located on the farm now owned by his son, R. J. Morse, where he died
at the age of sixty-three years. During his life he held many offices of trust
in the town, and in the year 1839, was the only representative of the Whig
party in the township. R. J. Morse, residing on road 13, was born on the
farm he now occupies. Early in life he was a Whig, but in 1868, he joined the
Republican party. He has held many of the town offices, was at one time
assistant judge, and town collector twenty years, his term of office ending in
1874. His family consists of three children, one son and two daughters.

John Sabin, at an early day removed with his family to Duxbury, from New
Hampshire, and thence to this town, where he resided until his death, aged
seventy years, leaving a family of eight children. Five of his grand children,
children of William, now reside on road 6, viz.: Ransom J., Elisha B., Elijah
H., Allen M., and Jennie, wife of Wm. A. Bohonnon. The four sons reside
together upon a farm they have leased for a period of sixteen years.

Asa Stockwell, from Connecticut, came to Bolton about 1800, and located
on road 16. His son, Eleazer, now resides on road 18.

Joseph, Samuel, and Asa Lewis, from Bradford, Conn., came to this town
in 1801, or 1802. Asa and Samuel located upon a farm on road 18, and Joseph
settled near them, across the brook.

Moses L. Colton come to Bolton in 1825, and located in the western part
of the town, where he soon after erected a saw-mill, the first built in that
locality. In this mill he continued business until his death, in 1872. He was
one of the prominent men of the town, and held many positions of honor and

trust. E. M. Colton, his son, was born here in 1826, and has since resided
on the old homestead. He has been very successful in the manufacture of
lumber, and has also held many positions of public trust.

Asher Hall, from Jericho, located in the western part of Bolton in 1835.

Rev. W. L. Hurlburt, born in Dorset, Vt., was the first settled minister
here, and received the ministerial right of land allowed by charter, though
Rev. Roswell Mears and Rev. Samuel Webster were the first itinerant min-
isters. Thomas Mitchell was the first Methodist minister, having been in-
vited here from Waterbury, by John Kennedy. Soon after, Lorenzo Dow
preached here. In 1800 the first church was dedicated. It consisted of a
high vock, and may be seen by the traveler situated at the back of a level
meadow about forty rods from the railway, one and one-half miles east of
Jonesville station. It is about fifty feet high, has a natural grotto, three
regular stone steps, and a hollow, shaped like a boiler, which holds about four
pails full, and is called the ‘“‘ Indian’s kettle.” Here was held the first Metho-
dist quarterly meeting. The Rev. Shadrick Bostwick, of Baltimore, Md.,
was presiding elder. ‘There was a large gathering on this occasion, and the
society numbered about seventy-six members. Bishop Hedding preached
his first sermon in Bolton, at John Kennedy’s house, in 1800. Both the
Calvinist and Freewill Baptists formed societies in town before the Metho-
dists came.

The Baptist Church of West Bolton, located at West Bolton, was organized
by Rev. Wiliam S. Hurlburt, with forty-five members, in 1875, and now has
sixty-eight members, with Rev. D. F. Safford, pastor. The church building,
however, was built in 1867, a wooden structure, capable of accommodating
250 persons, and cost $3,000.00, though it is now valued at but $2,500.00.

JB UELs GORE, a triangular tract of land containing an area of about
aw 3,000 acres, forms the southeastern corner of the county, lying in lat.
a 44° 13' and long. 4° 0’, bounded north by Huntington, east by Fayston,
in Washington Co., and south and west by Starksboro and Lincoln, in Addison
Co. Itwas granted by Vermont, November 4, 1780, to Ehas Bueland fifty-nine
others, and then contained an area of 4,273 acres ; but was curtailed by the
legislature, October 27, 1794, by annexing a portion of its territory to Hunt-
ington. The first settlement was made by Abel Turner, John Fitch, and
Samuel Fargo, about 1789. From that time until 1850, its population in-
creased to eighteen, and since then has increased to twenty-four.

The Gore has never been organized as a town, has no church building, and
no postoffice. Its residents all depend upon the adjoining towns for these
matters, mostly upon Huntington ; and, indeed, it might almost be said to be
a portion of that town. For this reason we have put what notes we have
relative to its settlement, biographies, etc., into the Huntington sketch. The
“ Directory” will also be found combined with that of Huntington.
94 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

a URLINGTON, the shire town, lies near the center of the west line of the

g

tae, county, on the lake shore, in lat. 44° 27’ and long. 3° 52’. It was
granted, according to the charter deed which now hangs, appropriately
framed, upon a wall of the city clerk’s office, by Benning Wentworth, the
Colonial Governor of New Hampshire, under King George IIL., June 7, 1763,
to Samuel Willis and sixty-three others, in seventy-two shares of 320 acres
each, making a total area of 23,040 acres. Its original bounds were as follows:
“ Beginning at the southerly or southwest side of French or Onion River,
so-called, at the mouth of said river, thence running up by said river until it
comes to a place that is ten miles upon a straight line from the mouth of the
river aforesaid, then runs upon a line perpendicular to the aforesaid ten miles

line southerly so far as that a line to Lake Champlain, parallel to the ten
miles line aforesaid, will, within the lines and the shore of the said lake, con-

tain six square miles.”

This area, however, was changed by the legislature, October 27, 1794, by
annexing to Williston all the land lying east of Muddy Brook ; and again, by
an act of the legislature, approved November 22, 1864, and accepted by the
inhabitants of Burlington, January 18, 1865, all the township lying west of an
irregular line drawn from the mouth of Shelburne Bay, northeasterly through
the center of the township to the Winooski River, was incorporated into the
City of Burlington, while the residue has since been known as South Burling-
ton. But as they were so long considered as a whole, and so lately separated,
we shall, in speaking of their surface, rocks, early settlement, etc., consider
them as one—the old town of Burlington.

In surface, the territory is just broken enough to lend a pleasing diversity
to the landscape, the western part rising, gradually in some places, at others
abruptly, from the lake shore, to an altitude of about 300 feet, forming a
very handsome beach scene as viewed from the lake. From the northern
part of the shore, a long, narrow neck of land extends into the Champlain,
terminating in Appletree Point, south of which, extending to Rock Point, is
Appletree Bay. Rock Point, especially, is noted for its wild, picturesque
aspect. It rises almost abruptly from the water, a bold, beetling, craggy, rock
promontory, nearly a hundred feet in height. In the course of time, the ele-
ments have wrenched huge crags and large bodies of rock from its sides,
which have come crashing down to its base, where they now lie in a confused,
picturesque pile, not unlike the ruins of some giant castle. About twenty
feet from this mass, with a deep channel of water between them, rises Lone
Rock, a solid mass of stone some forty feet in diameter, conical shaped, lift-
ing its head'to a height of twenty-five or thirty feet. South of this, extending
to Red Rocks Point, is the broad, cresent-shaped Burlington Bay, with its
long stretch of silvery-white sand beach, the finest harbor onthe lake. About
a mile southwest from Red Rocks Point is Pottier’s Point, with the entrance
to Shelburne Bay lying between them, extending south into Shelburne, and
which may almost be termed an arm of Burlington Bay, as it opens directly
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 95

from it. Add to this, then, the beautiful country that forms a background to
the scene, its handsome groves, fine residences, and the fair city and harbor of
Burlington, the latter with its long docks and immense lumber piles, lying at
the foot of the town, which extends up the slope of the hill until its summit
is capped by the University of Vermont—the “Queen City’s” crown, and
you will have in all a picture of rare beauty. The southern and eastern part
of the territory (now South Burlington) is low and level, and in the northeast-
ern part it is an extensive pine plain. Muddy Brook bounds it on the east,
separating it from Williston, an inconsiderable stream flowing north into the
Winooski, containing no mill seats of any special value. The Winooski
River forms the northern boundary, a stream that not only takes the pre-
ccedence in size, being seventy miles in length and watering 970 square miles
of territory, but also is the first in Vermont in its curiosities and beauties of
nature, as well as in historical interest. Since the earliest days, long before
Vermont contained a settlement, in the time of King William’s and Queen
Anne’s wars, the French and Indian outbreak, and indeed all through these
earlier troubles, the Winooski bore warlike parties upon its bosom. But as
we have already spoken at some length of this stream, on page 37, of its
gorges, natural bridge, and derivation of its somewhat peculiar vegetarian
name, we will only mention at this point its singular gorge, lying three-quar-
ters of a mile above Winooski village. Here, the channel, which is about
seventy feet in width, for a distance of forty rods, has worn its course through
the surface to a depth of sixty-five feet, leaving a perpendicular wall of solid
rock on either side, over which has been built a bridge, called High Bridge,
a view from which is well worth a visit. There are also abundant evidences
at this point that there formerly existed a large pond here, whose waters were
drained off by the wearing down of the river channel. On the south the
country is bounded by the town of Shelburne. No streams of any magni-
tude, except those mentioned, flow through its soil, which is quite uniform, a
general sandy loam, with a productive clay in the southern part, yielding large
crops of fruits and grains indigenous to the county, with comparatively little
labor. ‘The original timber, of which little is standing, was mostly pine, hem-
lock, cedar, spruce, maple, oak, and ash.

The principal rock entering into the geological structure of the territory is
rea sandrock, underlying nearly the whole of the central part of the country,
affording a very excellent building stone. The western portion of the north-
em part of the town is composed of Audson River slates. The eastern
portion of South Burlington, next to the range of red sandrock, the rock
formation is of the Zolian Limestone variety. The geology has been quite
fully treated in connection with the county chapter, so we shall mention here
only the above bare outline of facts. (See page 43.)

incorporated by the legislature, November 22, 1864, and organized, by the

election of the proper city officers, January 18, 1865. Its corporation is em.
braced in the following limits :—

“Beginning at the east shore of Lake Champlain, at the northwest corner
of one-hundred-acre lot number 163, thence easterly in the north line of said
lot to the northeast corner thereof; thence northerly in the west line of one-
hundred-acre lot number 155, to the northwest corner of said lot number 155,
thence running easterly in the north line of said lot number 155, to the east
line of the stage road from Burlington to Shelburne ; thence northerly in the
east line of said stage road, to the northwest corner of one-hundred-acre lot
number 165 ; thence easterly in the north line of one-hundred-acre lots num-
bers 165 and 183, to the east line of Spear street ; thence northerly in the east
line of Spear street, to the south line of Winooski turnpike ; thence easterly
in the southerly line of said turnpike, to a point opposite the angle formed by
the north line of said turnpike and the east line of the road leading northerly
from said turnpike to Colchester avenue, east of the residence of Henry W.
Catlin ; thence crossing said turnpike northerly to said angle; thence from
said angle in a straight line to the centre of Winooski River, at the northern
termination of the east line of one-hundred-acre lot number 18 ; thence,
in the centre of Winooski River, down said river to Lake Champlain ; thence
southerly on the lake shore, at low water mark, to the most western point of
Appletree Point ; thence in a straight line to place of beginning.”

After the division of the town and the proper organization of South Bur-
lington as a town and Burlington as a city, the board of aldermen of the
latter place met the selectmen of the former, and a basis of settlement wag
agreed upon, settling all questions and dividing all property in which each had
an interest. The payments due by virtue of this agreement are shown by the
following statement, copied from the records, which may prove of interest to
many :—

Having thus followed the division of the town, we will now endeavor to
speak more minutely of the city, and then of its near relative, South Burling-
ton. No city or village in the New England States surpasses Burlington in
beauty of location. The hill upon whose gentle slope it is situated rises
gradually back from the lake front until its highest point is reached one mile
from the shore. The principal streets extend east and west, and are inter-
sected at right angles with numerous others extending north and south, cut-
ting nearly the whole city into regular squares. Upon the highest point,
College Hill, is situated the University, of Vermont, from whose observatory
a view may be obtained of the surrounding beautiful scenery—scenery that
few, we take it, will claim to have seen excelled. On the east rise the Green
Mountains, Mansfield and Camel’s Hump in full view from base to summit,
with a fine sweep of open country between. On the north is the valley of the
Winooski, and of Lake Champlain stretching north to St. Albans Bay, while
on the south the hill sinks away and leaves in sight Shelburne Bay with its
picturesque shores, land-locked, and apparently a lake rather than a bay, and
with everything that is beautiful of hill and dale, woodland and meadow, dis-
tant water and mountains sinking into the horizon, for accompaniments of the
scene. On the west the sweep of the eye takes in thegentle slope of the city
to the lake shore, the bay, Pottier’s, Red Rocks, Rock and Appletree Points,
and between the city and the opposite shore, ten miles distant, one of the broad-
est parts of Lake Champlain, reflecting the mountains and flecked with the
shadows of clouds, gemmed with the green isles Juniper and Four Brothers,
while the Adirondacks sink into the horizon beyond, stretching north and
south for nearly a hundred miles, Old Whiteface “heaving high his forehead
bare” behind the front tier of Peaks right opposite, and Mount Marcy and
his tall companions on the southwest, with the tracks of land-slides marked in
white on their blue sides. Immediately below, from the front of the college
green, extend the broad well-kept streets, leading to the lake front, where
acres upon acres of land have been made by filling in along the shore, and the

whole now covered by immense lumber yards, large mills, and extensive
wharfing, proclaiming that enterprise, commerce and manufacture are march-
ing onward, hand in hand. Between us and this manufacturing district,
stretching north and south, lies the fair city, with over 11,000 inhabitants, its
substantial public buildings, public square and Battery Park, five banks, five
hotels, eight churches, fifteen public schools, long rows of business blocks and
many elegant private residences.

Previous to its incorporation, the city was looked upon as a very prosper-
ous village ; yet it had no village charter, although some attempts had been
made to procure one. In the fall of 1852, an application was made to the
selectmen of the town by several freeholders, requesting them to warn a meet-
ing, to ascertain if the town would make an application to the legislature for
an act to incorporate the whole or a part of the township into a city. A
meeting for this purpose was called, therefore, on the 7th of October, when the
following resolution was introduced by Lyman Cummings :—

“ Resolved, That it is expedient to incorporate a part‘of the town of Bur-
lington into a city, with proper boundaries, and suitable provisions therefor.”

It was also voted that a committee be appointed to carry the resolution
into effect, with an amendment recommending that the proposed city em-
brace the whole instead of a part of the town. A committee of five was ac-
cordingly chosen, consisting of George W. Benedict, Timothy Follett, John
VanSicklen, D. W. C. Clarke, and William Weston, who were instructed to
report at an adjourned meeting to be held on the 12th instant, following, a
draft of a bill to incorporate a part or'all of the town into a city. At this
adjourned meeting the committee reported as directed, and the resolution was
adopted by one hundred and sixty-nine ballots in the affirmative against sixty-
three in the negative. The legislature was in session at that time, so the bill
was immediately sent in, when an act was passed incorporating the village
and that part of the town lying north of it, into a city, and likewise an act
chartering the village of Burlington, with the power left to the town of adopt-
ing or rejecting either act. Accordingly, on January 21, 1853, a meeting was
held within the limits of the contemplated city, to ascertain which act should
be adopted, with the following result: for a village charter, 273 votes were
cast ; for a city charter, 233 votes. As it was thus decided that the “city

ct” should be abandoned, another meeting was called on the 7th of the fol-
lowing month, for the purpose of voting on the question whether the village
charter should be accepted or rejected, and the vote being taken there were
cast for accepting the charter, 115 votes; for rejecting it, 200 votes. And,
thus ended the first attempt to incorporate the town or a portion of it into
a city, until 1864, when an act passed the legislature, incorporating - the city,
as previously mentioned.

In pursuance of this act, a special town meeting was warned, January 2,
1865, as follows :—
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 99

 

“The inhabitants of the town of Burlington, who are legal voters in town
meeting, are hereby notified and warned to meet at the Town Hall in said
Town on Wednesday, the 18th day of January, A. D., 1865, at 10 o'clock A.
M., for the following purposes, viz.: 1st. To choose a Moderator to govern
said meeting. * = o * 3rd. To vote by ballot on the accept-
ance or rejection of a certain Act of the Legislature of Vermont, approved
November 22nd, 1864, and entitled ‘An Act to incorporate the City of Bur-
lington,’ by the terms of which act those in favor of the acceptance of this
act shall cast ballots on which shall be inscribed or printed the word ‘Yes,’
and those opposed to such acceptance shall cast ballots on which shall be in-
scribed or printed the word ‘No.’ 4th. Todo any other business proper to
be done at such meeting. CaroLus Noyes,

L. B. Piatt, - Selectmen.”
P. H. Catiin, j

Pursuant to the foregoing warning, the meeting was held at the time and
place specified, and was duly organized by the election of William G. Shaw
as moderator, who appointed Albert L. Catlin, James A. Shedd, Russell S.
Taft, and Nathaniel Parker, tellers to sort and count the ballots. The whole
number of ballots cast was 671, upon 452 of which was found inscribed the
word ‘Yes,’ and upon 219, the word ‘No.’ Within twenty days after the ac-
ceptance of the charter thus made, the selectmen of the town, according
to the provisions of the act, divided the city into wards, appointed places in
each for the holding of elections, and ward officers to officiate until an election
should be made, and also issued the following warning for the first city
election :—

“The legal voters of the city of Burlington are hereby notified and warned
to meet in their respective Wards, at the places therein hereinafter severally
designated and appointed, on MONDAY, the 2oth of FEBRUARY, A. D.,
1865, at 10 o'clock A. M., for the election of Mayor, Recorder, Aldermen,
Common Councilmen, and Ward officers, as prescribed in the Act incorporat-
ing the City of Burlington. And the undersigned, Selectmen, have divided
the City of Burlington, in conformity to the said Act of incorporation, into
three Wards, which are hereby severally designated: The North Ward, the
South Ward, and the Centre Ward ts * * *

P. H. Cattin,

At the meeting thus warned, the following list of officers were elected :
Mayor, Albert L. Catlin ; recorder, E. R. Hard ; aldermen, Lawrence Barnes,
Levi Underwood, Calvin Blodgett, Omri A. Dodge, Giles S. Appleton, and
Russell S. Taft; clerk, J. R. Hickok. Common Council,—president, Salmon

Salmon Wires, Charles Willer, and W. H. Brink, Centre Ward; George W.
Beckwith, O. J. Walker, and P. D. Ballou, South Ward; and William H.
Hoyt, clerk. By an amendment to the city charter, however, approved No-
vember 9,1865, the common council was abolished, and the government from
March, 1867, established in the Mayor and board of Aldermen, the said board

being, since 1873, when the city was re-divided into five instead of three
wards, composed of two aldermen from each, making ten in all.

WaTER WoRKS.

The water supply, at the time of the organization of the city, was exceed-
ingly poor, as may be inferred from the following official statement, made in
1865: “There are 650 who depend for their entire supply of water upon the
lake, which is mostly hauled in casks; 1828 persons who depend entirely
upon cisterns ; 1,214 upon cisterns and wells, fifty-seven upon springs and the |
lake ; forty-eight are entirely dependent on their neighbors, and one thousand
persons receive water from the Aqueduct Company.”

The great cause of this deficiency was the difficulty, and at most points im-
possibility, of sinking wells a sufficient depth to strike a water vein ; but the
lake and the Winooski afforded means for an abundani supply, and the city
council early turned their serious attention tothe subject. The village had
been afforded an indifferent supply by an aqueduct company, organized in
1850.

As early as 1827, the Champlain Glass Company, whose works were
located on the lake shore near the Battery Park, laid a line of log pipes thereto,
from or near the present residence of Henry Loomis, on Pearl street, for the
purpose of conducting water to their factory from several springs in that
vicinity. This line was in use until 1850, when Frederick Smith, who at that
time was a part owner of the glass factory property, started a stock com-
pany, known as the Burlington Aqueduct Company, which was incorporated
by the legislature for the purpose of furnishing the village with an adequate
supply. The old logs were superceded by iron pipes, about three miles of
which were laid during the first year. A reservoir, forty feet square and
twelve feet in depth, arched over with brick, was built in the center of Pearl,
near Williams street, which is still in existence. This reservoir was supplied
by four springs, two being situated on the lot now owned and occupied by
George L. Linsley, at that time owned by Warren Root, and two just above
him, one in the center of the street. Subsequently, about the year 1855, an
arrangement was made with the old Pioneer Shop Company, by which water
was pumped from the lake. But even then, as previously shown, the growth
of the community had made the supply wholly inadequate to the demand;
consequently, the city took the affair in hand and issued bonds to the amount
of $150,000.00 for the construction of new works, and bought the property of
the Aqueduct Company for $24,000.00, coming into possession October 1,
1866. A resolution for the construction of the new works was adopted by
the city council on the 2d day of April, 1867, and the city now has one of
the finest supplies in the State. The reservoir is situated at the junction of
Winooski turnpike and University place, a distance from the pump-house of
8,362 feet, with a head of 289 feet, and a capacity of 2,236,000 gallons. The
pump-house and machinery are situated at the foot of Pearl street, and were

first put into operation December 25, 1867. There are at present twenty-
seven miles of mains, with 1,620 service pipes or taps, through which was
used, during the year 1881, 216,869,535 gallons of water, for which the city
received $24,407.21. Throughout the city there are 123 public, and twenty
private fire-hydrants, the great force of the water precluding the necessity of
fire engines, as hose has only to be attached to the hydrant when a powerful
stream is thrown. In addition to the first appropriation of the city, there has
been bonds issued at different periods until the whole bonded debt of the
water works is now $244,900.00, and their entire cost $271,470.83.

Gas WorKS.

On the sth of November, 1852, the Burlington Gas Light Company was
incorporated by the legislature, with John Peck, president ; Charles F. War-
ren, treasurer ; and Salmon Wries, secretary. During the following year, the
construction of the works, located at the corner of Bank and Battery streets,
was commenced, and finished in 1854. The contract was let to Dugand,
Cartwright & Co., of Philadelphia, Pa., who constructed works for the manu-
facture of gas from coal; but in 1879, the process was changed, and petrolium
gas is manufactured instead. The works were finished, and the city first lighted
May 15, 1854, with only a few miles of mains, which have since been extended
until they aggregate ten miles in length, conducting gas to 365 meters. The
present officers of the company are Nathaniel Parker, president, and F. H.
Parker, treasurer and superintendent.

MANUFACTURES.

The first extensive manufactory commenced at Burlington was in 1827
when the Champlain Glass Company built a factory, between Champlain and
Battery streets, near the Battery Park, and commenced the manufacture of
window glass. For a long time the company was quite successful and did a
large business, employing as many as two hundred hands; but later, more,
from mismanagement than any other reason, it declined, and finally practically
died, in 1834. Mr. Frederick Smith, however, who was then a young man
employed in the office as an accountant, considered he had the requisite tact
and energy to rebuild the enterprise, and therefore bought out the business,
and, with several changes of partners, carried it on successfully for a number of
years, or until 1848, whenthe manufacture of glass was abandoned, principally
on account of high prices of fuel. In the meantime the manufacture of cotton
cloth was commenced, a business which has since grown to extensive propor-
tions.

Burlington and Winooski Cotton Mills.—In 1845, a firm under the title of
The Winooski Mill Co., was granted a charter by the legislature, for the pur-
pose of carrying on the manufacture of cotton cloth at Burlington. During
that year the company was organized, with a capital stock of $25,000.00, and
Joseph D. Allen elected president. Thus it remained until 1853, when the
102 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

legislature authorized the increase of its capital to $75,000.00. Manufactur-
ing was first commenced in a wooden building, known as “the oil mill,” situ-
ated on the west side of the highway, near the south end of the covered
bridge, at Winooski Falls.

On the night of January 1, 1852, the entire works were destroyed by fire.
Soon after this catastrophy, in the following spring, a site some twenty rods
above the bridge was purchased, and a commodious brick and stone factory
erected, 45x103 feet, in addition to the wood building, 34x84 feet, already
standing upon the site. In 1880, the property was purchased by the present
proprietors, Joel H. Gates and Robert G. Severson, who have been many
years prominently identified with the business interests of Burlington, and is
now operated by them under the firm name of Joel H. Gates & Co. They
soon made many improvements, and greatly increased the concern’s facilities,
so that the mill property of the company now consists of the greatly enlarged
mills at the falls, and their large factory on Pine and St. Paul streets,

The falls factory is devoted exclusively to the process of picking, carding,
and spinning, where 23,000 spindles, and the machinery necessary to supply
them, are continuously running during the working hours of each day, in ad-
dition to the machinery for a well-appointed repair shop, the whole of which
is driven by water-power. Immediately adjoining the mill are the necessary
storehouses, tenements for operatives, boiler-house, where steam is generated
for heating purposes, and various other requisite out-buildings. Upon Pine
and St. Paul streets, in the western part of the city, is located the weaving
mill—-a large frame and stone structure, two stories in height, with a basement.
The two main floors are each 50x360 feet, containing 650 looms, while the
basement contains the machinery for measuring, folding and baling the finished
cloth. At one end of the main building, forming an “L,” is a substantial
brick structure, 5ox100 feet, two stories high, in which are located the repair
and machine shops, and the machinery for dressing warps, etc., and also the
boiler room, containing four large boilers which supply the steam for running
the engine (one hundred horse-power) and heating the buildings. Within con-
venient distances are the office, boarding-house, barnes, stables, ice-house,
etc., all situated so as to leave a large yard, or clear space, around the mill,
thus providing ample light and air at all seasons. Their machinery and equip-
ments are all modern, and capable of turning out work fully up to the times.

The class of goods manufactured is what is called “ print cloth,” 25,000
yards of which are woven daily, making an annual product of 7,500,000
yards, giving employment to 350 persons. Thus the establishment is one of
the largest and most extensive concerns in the State, and very ably managed
by its general superintendent, Mr. Horace W. Barrett, who has been connect-
ed with the institution ever since it was first established, in 1845.

The Pioneer Mechanics’ Shops. —About the year 1850, the cause of the
dearth of manufactures began to be canvassed by several of the representative
business men of Burlington, with a view to changing the condition of affairs.
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 103

 

“ Here is a village with undoubted facilities for manufacture,” they said, “with
communication by water and rail with the large cities, and there is no reason
why it should not become an extensive manufacturing center, could we only
induce some good live mechanics to act as ‘pioneers.’” And they were
right.

The awakening of this sentiment soon took practical development, owing
principally to the energy of Messrs. Frederick Smith and Henry P. Hickok,
resulting in the establishment of “The Pioneer Mechanics’ Shops Co.,” May
31, 1852, a stock company with a capital of $30,000.00, divided into shares
of $25.00 each. The legislature had granted them a charter in November of
that year, and the first directors were Henry P. Hickok, Frederick Smith, T.
R. Fletcher, Edward W. Peck, and Morillo Noyes. Land was donated for
the erection of suitable buildings, by Henry B. Stacy, Henry P. Hickok,
Eliza W. Buel, and Nathan B. Haswell, the said buildings, with steam engines
and fixtures for running machinery, being intended “to be rented to mechanics
and manufacturers, in convenient allotments, in such manner as to facilitate
and invite the introduction of new branches of mechanical and manufacturing
industry.”

In 1853, the shops were completed, located on the east side of Lake street,
of brick, four stories high, 400 feet long, and 50 feet wide, divided into four
apartments, each one hundred feet long, with a heavy brick wall between, the
machinery being driven by two heavy engines in a building just east of the
shops. It was not long before the buildings were occupied, proving the en-
terprise a success, and chairs, doors, sash, blinds, and machinery were soon
counted among the exports of Burlington.

The corporation, however, having borrowed money over and above their cap-
ital for the completion of their buildings, and given a mortgage on their property
to secure its payment, were unable to meet their obligations, so the mortgage
was foreclosed, and the property came into the hands of Henry P. Hickok.
Soon after, April 2, 1858, the entire buildings were destroyed by fire, entailing
a loss of about $150,000.00. But manufacturing industries had become too
firmly seated here to succumb to even this misfortune. The citizens of the
town donated 8,000.00 towards the re-construction of the works, and Mr.
Lawrence Barnes purchased the ruins, and immediately erected three brick
shops, two stories high, each one hundred feet long and fifty feet wide, being
the same, with others which have been erected adjoining, that are know as
“The Pioneer Shops” to-day. Immediately after their re-construction, Jan-
uary 1, 1858, the property was transferred to the present proprietors, B. S.
Nichols & Co., who lease the shops to the following firms, who collectively
furnish employment to 500 persons :—

E. B. and A. C. Whitney, who are successfuly engaged in the manufacture
of brush stock. Zhe Ferguson Manufacturing Co.,in the manufacture of
“ bureau creameries.” 2. JZ Clapp, curtain rollers and fixtures. 7 2. Booth,

and boot trees. Wallace S. Holland, manufacturer of fancy cabinets and
cases, and Venetian blinds. S. C. Kimball & Co.,in the manufacture of
doors, sash, and blinds. Woodbury & Co.,as aplaning-mill. W. H. Brink,
as a brass and iron foundry, and also by several other firms who carry on a
less extensive business.

J. R. Booths manufactory is under the management of U. A. Woodbury,
and employs 125 hands. Aside from the manufacture of sash, doors, blinds,
etc., Mr. Booth, who resides in Canada, is extensively engaged in the manu-
facture of lumber, having mills at Ottawa, where 47,000,000 feet of lumber are
cut annually, 20,000,000 feet of which are sold from this point, making his-
business in Burlington, commenced in 1874, aggregate a half million dollars
per year.

S. C. Kimball & Co. commenced business as Crombie & Kimball in
1858, in the Pioneer buildings, and continued thus until 1868, when their
firm’s title was changed to the one they now bear. This company employs
twenty-five men, and turns out about $50,000.00 worth of manufactured goods
annually.

R. M. Clapp’s manufactory was established in 1870, employs twenty-five
men, and produces $40,000.00 worth of goods per annum.

Wallace §. Holland's manufactory furnishes employment for twenty per-
sons, and turns out $20,000.00 worth of goods per year.

J. W. Goodell & Co.'s marble and granite works, located on Pine street,
are among the largest of the manufactories situated outside of the Pioneer
Shops. Their buildings, which cover an area of several thousand square feet,
are admirably located for conveniently carrying on this manufacture, as the rail-
road passes right by the door, affording an easy mode of shipping and receiving
goods, and also situated near the lake, from which a constant supply of water
may be pumped, an item extremely essential in sawing and polishing marble.
Business was commenced by them in the spring of 1875, under the manage-
ment of Mr. J. W. Goodell, who, with Messrs. F. W. Smith and C. R. Hayward,
constitute the company. Since that time they have been very extensively
engaged in the manufacture of finished marble and granite work, and are now
producing more marble tops for furniture that any other firm in the country.
The method of working and polishing the various kinds of stone has been greatly
improved during the past few years, and Messrs. Goodell & Co. have kept
promptly up with the improvements, inventing not a few of them themselves,
so that their factory is now an interesting place to spend an hour in observ-
ing how the rough blocks of stone are metamorphosed into beautiful, polished
specimens of mechanical and artistic genius, which eventually perform an
active part in decorating both the interior and exterior of some of our grandest
private and public buildings, as well as to embellish our cherished “ cities of
of the dead.” Two hundred men are employed here continually, night and

day, producing a quarter of million dollars worth of manufactured goods pet
annum.
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 105

Burlington Manufacturing Co., located on the corner of Pine and Maple
Streets, is a stock company largely engaged in the manufacture and sale of
marble, with Hon. Torrey E. Wales, president, and Charles R. Hayward,
secretary. The company was organized, and buildings erected, in 1865, for
the manufacture of nails, and as a rolling-mill, which business was continued
several years, or until 1872, when the factory was fitted up for the present
manufacture of marble. The firm has exclusive control of several quarries of
very popular marble, owing to the fact of different members of the firm
owning a portion or a whole of the said quarries. Among these several grades
may be mentioned the celebrated Verona, Lapanto and Moriah marbles of
New York, and the Florence marble from the quarries at Pittsford, Vt., and also
at the same time they import large quantities from Italy. They operate twelve
gangs of saws and employ seventy men at their works, besides retaining
numerous other workmen at their several quarries, while their sales of rough
blocks aggregate many thousand feet each year.

The Queen City Steam Granite Works, located at 143 College street, are
owned by L. A. Walker and Eben Tappen, who manufacture there all kinds
of monuments, headstones and building blocks, from granite and marble, em-
ploying twenty-five men and doinga business of $25,000.00 per annum,
though some years it amounts to as high as $75,000.00.

Guy N. Willard’s stone quarries, located southeast of the principal part
of the city, were first opened by Mr. Willard’s father, Levi, in 1805, since
which time many thousand yards of stone have been taken therefrom, enter-
ing into the structure of some of the finest buildings in Burlington and vicinity.
The material consists in most part of a pinkish-white, fine-grained limestone,
somewhat resembling granite in its construction, with layers of reddish sand-
stone interstratified with red sandstone—marking the transition from the
arenaceous to the calcareous form of deposit. Mr. Willard employs fifty men
at his quarries.

Homer M. Phelps's steam marble and granite works, located on Bank street,
were established by him in 1862, for the manufacture of all kinds of building
and cemetery work, and now give employment to twenty men.

Holt & Barnes's spool and bobbin works, located on Pine street, south of
Maple, were established at Salisbury, in 1869, and removed to Burlington in
1875. Spools for thread only were manufactured previous to 1877, but dur-
ing that year machinery for the manufacture of bobbins was introduced, since
which time the business has largely increased, so that eighty hands are now
employed at the works.

Walker, Hatch & Co., stair builders and manufacturers of doors, sash,
blinds, etc., have their office and salesroom at 153 Main street, though their
mulls are located at Winooski village. The business was established in 1874,
by David Walker and D. F. Hatch, since which time it has continued to
steadily increase, until they now employ thirty-five men.

Taft, Morgan & Co., manufacturers of sash, doors, blinds, and house fur-
106 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

nishings, on College, Battery, and Lake streets, commenced business in 1877,
as Taft & Morgan, and continued until 1879, when the present firm was
organized. They employ eighty men, and manufacture $200,000.00 worth of
goods per year.

Matthews & Hickok, manufacturers of packing-boxes, cloth-boards, etc,
on Pine street, were organized asa firm in 1871. They employ fifty men
and turn out $200,000.00 worth of goods per annum.

The Burlington Spoke Company, Walker & Hatch, agents, engaged in the
manufacture of carriage spokes, axehelves, pick, hammer and sledge-handles,
have their mills located at Winooski village, and their place of business in
Burlington. They employ a number of experienced workmen, and do a large
business.

Jerry Lee's carriage shops, located at 175 Pearl street, were established in
1856. He now employs ten men, and manufactures from $8,000.00 to $10,-
000.00 worth of carriages and sleighs per annum.

flarmon Ray, engaged in the manufacture of carriages and wagons, on
Front street, first commenced business in Hinesburgh, where he was estab-
lished ten years; he then removed his works to Burlington, in 1856, and
now does a business of about $15,000.00 per year.

William Smith & Co.’s carriage shop, located in the rear 153 Pearl street,
was established by S. M. Pope, in 1867, since which time, with various
changes of partners, Mr. Smith has been constantly connected with the
business, the members of the firm now being Smith, Tuttle and Deitte. They
employ three men.

Charles B. Gray's carriage manufactory, located on Champlain street, was
established in 1830. He now employs ten men in the manufacture of light
and heavy carriages and wagons, and also deals in Eastern and Western car-
riages, etc., doing an annual business of $15,000.00.

Charles H. Sager, manufacturer and repairer of furniture, located at 10
North Winooski ave., commenced business here in 1879, and now employs
seven men.

George W. Lee's carpenter and joiner shops, located on North street, were
established in 1865. He employs thirty men.

John W. Roberts's carpenter and building shops are located on North Wil-
lard street. Mr. Roberts commenced business here in 1879, and now em-
ploys seven men,

Homer C. Drew, carpenter and builder, located on South Winooski ave.,
commenced business here about fourteen years ago, and now employs twenty
men.

C. A. Hibbara’s boot and shoe manufactory, located at 52 and 54 College
street, was established at Troy, Vt. in 1865. In 1870, Mr. Hibbard re-
moved to Essex Junction, and from there to Burlington, in 1874. He man-
ufactures none but hand-made goods, turning out from 1,200 to 1,700 cases
per year, giving employment to fifty workmen. His whole trade, consisting

of the sale of his own and other manufactured goods, amounts to 150,000.00
annually.

George W. Holmes & Co.’s glove and mitten manufactory, located at 181
College street, was established by J. H. Whitten, in 1874, by whom the busi-
ness was conducted until his death, in 1877, since which time it has been
managed by G. W. Holmes, who became a partner in 1880. The firm em-
ploys fifteen persons at their manufactory and salesrooms, though a large por-
tion of their hand-work is done outside of the factory.

The Burlington & Lamoille R. R. Machine Shops, located at 33 Maple
street, are under the management of Mr. F. G. Brownell. The rolling stock,
locomotives, etc., for this road are manufactured here, giving employment to
twelve men.

Queen City Soap Works, Dodds & Stephens, proprietors, located on
First street, were established in a modest way in 1876, and have since steadily
increased in business, until they now have an extensive manufactory, employ-
ing several men.

L. G. Burnham & Co., photographers and manufacturers of gilt and black
walnut moldings, picture frames, easels, etc., are now doing an extensive busi-
ness, which was established by Mr. Burnham in 1877, employing twelve
women.

Arbuckle & Co.—In 1870, this firm succeeded to the business of D. A.
Van Namee in the manufacture of candy, to which was subsequently added
the manufacture of cigars. In the line of confections they are the largest
manufacturers in the State, and employ thirty operatives. Their sales are
prin cipally in this State, Northern and Eastern New York, and New Hamp-
shire.

Franklin Woodworth's Pottery.—About the year 1830, E. L. Farrar built
a pottery on the south side of Pearl street, between St Paul and Church
streets. It was afterwards enlarged by Ballard Brothers, and retained by
them until 1874, when it was purchased by Mr Woodworth, who now does an
extensive business, employing fifteen men.

Wing & Smith.—In July, 1852, H. R. Wing and James A. Smith came to
this city, from Niagara Falls, N. Y., and started the manufacture of lasts, boot-
trees, crimps, etc., in a building known as the “Foundry Building” on the
corner of Main and Battery streets. Mr. G. F. Wing having previously opened
a store and sales room at 574 Frankfort street, New York, a large share of the
goods manufactured were sent to that place. After running two years in the
old ‘Foundry Building,” it was destroyed by fire, the firm losing their stock,
machinery, and books. With the proceeds of their small insurance they com-
menced to refund their machinery, and in six months had it in operation, in
the old PioneerShop. They continued business there until the property was
destroyed by fire, a small insurance being all that was left them. Everything
including books, was lost. From the ruins they proceeded to Winooski, and
in ninety days had the goods in market again. When the Pioneer Shops were

rebuilt the business was removed to them, where it is still continued. G. F,
Wing and James A. Smith having been removed by death, leaving H. R,
Wing the surviving active partner, Mrs J. A. Smith retaining an interest in the
firm, the name has not been changed. They employ fifteen men at Burling-
ton, and five men at New York city, their sales amounting to from twenty-
five to thirty thousand dollars per year. @

Tue LuMBER TRADE.

The first saw-mill in the vicinity was built at Winooski Falls, by Ira Allen,
in 1786. Mr. Allen, in connection with his brother, Levi, who was then en-
gaged in trade at St. Johns, C. E., opened a trade with Quebec, and among
the articles sent was the lumber manufactured at this mill. The first raft of oak
timber taken to Quebec was owned by Stephen Mallett, of Colchester, in
1794. The first raft of Norway pine was taken by John Thorp, of Charlotte,
in 1796. From this a great trade soon sprang up, of whom the most actively
engaged were Ira Allen, Stephen Mallett, Benjamin Boardman, Henry Board-
man, Amos Boardman, Ebenezer Allen, William B. Woods, Samuel Holgate,
Judson Lamson, Joseph Clark, Thaddeus Tuttle, Mr. Catlin, Ezra Meech, of
Shelburne, Daniel Hurlburt, Nathaniel Blood, of Essex, William Munson,
William Hine, Jacob Rolfe, Allen Hackett, David Bean, Heman Allen, of
Colchester, James Miner, Samuel Holgate, Jr., of Milton, Major Lyman King,
and Roswell Butler. After the opening of the Champlain canal, however, in
1820, the course of trade began to take an eastern route, and New York was
the lumber market. But erelong the immense forests of oak and pine became
exhausted—transferred from the soil to be planted ina floating home, to form
another forest—a forest of tall, tapering masts throughout the various great ship-
ping marts of the world. The depletion of the forests, however, extinguished
the lumber trade only for a time. It again sprang up, with increased pro
portions, but with a great change. The current of its tidehad been reversed
so that now the lumberman receives his lumber from Canada, instead of ship
ping it there.

The first cargo of lumber that arrived here from the Canadas, for the Easter
markets, was brought by L. G. Bigelow, in 1850. He associated with him i
the business Enos Peterson, and they continued in trade until 1855. Messrs
C. Blodgett & Son, then of Waterbury, next commenced trade here. Th
St. Maurice Lumber Company shipped their lumber here during the thre:
years that their mills were in operation. In 1855, the Hunterstown Lumbe
Company located their sales depot at this place, and in 1856, Mr. Lawreno
Barnes opened a yard here for the purchase and sale of lumber. From thi
time trade rapidly increased and reached mammoth proportions, which it re
tains to-day, though not to the extent it has done. Still, about 100,000,00
feet of lumber per year are shipped here now, amounting to a trade of ove
two million dollars. In addition to the firms already mentioned ona previou
page, the following are extensively engaged in the business :—
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. I0Q

Skillings, Whitney & Barnes.—This company, though formed as it now ex-
ists as late as 1878, is in reality the business established by Mr. Lawrence
Barnes in 1856, which has thus come down through variouschanges. In addi-
tion to their yards at Burlington, they have goods at Ogdensburgh, and at
Boston, where their general office is located, at No. 5 Kilby street. They
employ at this point roo men, and at all their yards 500. The aggregate
annual amount of lumber handled by them is 90,000,000 feet.

Shepard & Morse Lumber Co. have their principal office at No. 1 Liberty
street, Boston, and in addition to their large yardshere have others situated in
Canada, Michigan, and Tonawanda, N. Y., together with a manufactory at
East Saginaw. They employ in all about 300 men and handle 80,000,000
feet of lumber per annum.

Bronsons, Weston, Dunham & Co.—This firm deals largely in lumber, and
is also extensively engaged in its manufacture at their mills on Pine street.
The mills are an outgrowth of others started at Albany, by J. W. Dunham &
Co., and were first located here in 1872. They contain eleven planing
machines, two circular re-saws, and an upright re-sawing machine, in addition
to numerous other machines, all driven by an immense double engine of 175
horse-power. They employ from sixty to one hundred men, their mill having
the capacity for turning out 20,000,000 feet of lumber per year.

Pierce & Linsley, located at 38 College street, and who have also a branch
office at 7 Doane street, Boston, and another office and yard at East Sag-
inaw, Mich., were organized as a firm January 1, 1880. They give constant
employment to a numerous corps of laborers, and though comparatively young
in the business, handle about 6,000,000 feet of lumber per year.

Earzy Business MEN.

As the early settlement at ‘‘ Burlington Bay” gradually increased in size by
the addition of pioneers, it soon became necessary to have a merchant estab-
lished among them, which want was filled by — Grant. Others soon
followed his example, among whom, as the earliest, were the following: Stephen
Keys, Zaccheus Peaslee, Thaddeus Tuttle, E. T. Englesby, William F. Pell &
Co., Herring & Fitch, Newell & Russell; Moses Jewett, saddler ; Nehemiah
Hotchkiss, tailor ; J. Storrs, painter ; Justus Warner, cabinet maker ; William
Bryant, shoemaker; and Daniel Wilder, joiner. In the footsteps of these
worthy men followed others, whose energy and business capacity have made
Burlington what it is, the metropolis of the State, with its long blocks of busi-
ness houses and many wholesale concerns. There are at present one hundred
traveling salesmen resident in the city, seventy-five of whom are engaged by
Burlington houses. Among the wholesale enterprises of to-day are the
following :—

Wells, Richardson & Co., wholesale dealers and manufacturers of drugs
and medicines. —This firm commenced business in 1872, as successors to the

 
11O TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

old house of Henry & Co., so Jong known in Burlington, with Edward Wells,
A. E. Richardson, and W. J. Van Patten, forming the partnership. They
immediately commenced pushing the wholesale drug trade, in all its branches,
with such vigor that they soon supplied the whole trade of Vermont, North-
ern New York, and New Hampshire, with their goods. In 1873, Mr. Henry
Wells was admitted as a partner, and in 1874, their handsome, commodious

 

store was erected, a building whose facilities for and adaptability to the drug
business, are excelled by none. In January, 1881, Mr. F. H. Wells became
one of the firm, which is thus made up of young men whose whole business
training has been in the wholesale drug trade and specialties connected there-
with, and who are, withal, thorough business men in every sense, and deserve
well the high position they have attained in business circles.

Wells, Richardson & Co. began their extended system of advertising in
1877, expending during that year about $4,000.00 in making known the merits
of their Butter Color. Their drug business at that time amounted to about
$200,000.00 per year. In 1879, they began to extensively advertise their
now familiar, but then little known remedy, *‘ Kidney-Wort,” expending dur-
ing the first year about $75,000.00. This expenditure proved to be so profita-
ble—increasing their business more than fifty per cent.—that their investment
in printer’s ink the following year, 1880, was increased to $125,000.00. The
‘TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. III

 

business at once began to show the effect of this large outlay, and that year
amounted to a round $400,000.00. In 1881, their advertising cost them
$150,000.00, and they did a business of over half a million. This year the
outlay for advertising will be much larger, and the business thus far shows an
increase of twenty-five per cent. over that of 188r.

About $200,000.00 of their business continues to be from the general
wholesale drug trade, while the balance is from the sale of their proprietary
articles, Kidney-Wort, Improved Butter Color, and Diamond Dyes. These
articles have an almost world-wide reputation. Of Kidney-Wort, about 4,000
gross, 576,000 bottles, equal to 2,250 barrels, are shipped in the course of
a year, a large proportion of which is used in the different States of the
Union, though much is sent to other parts of North America, and some to
South America, while arrangements are now pending for introducing the
remedy into Europe and Australia. About 200 gross of Diamond Dyes are
shipped during the same period, or, in all, 132,000 dozen packages of goods
in a year. Surely, a business of great magnitude for a Vermont Yankee firm !
In transacting this great business they employ at their store sixty persons,
forty others indirectly, and send out four traveling salesmen.

Safford, Wetherby & Co.—This firm, wholesale jobbers of fancy goods,
notions, hoisery, overalls, shirts, etc., first commenced business at Montpelier,
in 1870, under the title of E. S. Fullam & Co., and in September of that
year removed to Burlington, locating at their present site. About four years
subsequent to this Mr. C. C. Chadwick was admitted to the business, and
the firm name changed to Fullam, Safford & Chadwick, and so remained
until 1875, when, owing to failing health, Mr. Fullam sold his interest to
Messrs. Safford & Chadwick, and during the same season Mr. Humphrey
became a partner, and the firm was known as Safford, Chadwick & Co. ; but
in the early part of 1876, Mr, Chadwick died, and Messrs. Safford & Hum-
phrey having purchased his interest, the business continued in their name
until 1881, when Mr. Henry L. Wetherby was admitted, and the title changed
to the one it has since borne. Still, although Mr. Humphrey is yet a mem-
ber of the firm, his time is given to conducting a retail trade in Winooski
village, which is owned by Safford, Humphrey & Co. During these years the
business has steadily increased, so that they. now employ three traveling
salesmen and a full corps of clerks at their store, their annual sales amount-
ing to about $100,000.00.

Henry, Johnson & Lord.—This enterprising firm, located on College street,
commenced business at Waterbury, Vt., in 1855, under the firm name of J.
M. Henry & Sons. Under various changes the firm continued in Waterbury
until March, 1867, when they removed the business to Burlington. After this
removal, the addition of the wholesale drug business was made to their man-
ufacture of proprietary medicines. In 1870, the firm divided, the present firm
of Wells, Richardson & Co. taking the wholesale department under the firm
title of Henry & Co., and Henry & Johnson retaining the proprietary medi-
112 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

cine department, which they still continue, with the addition, in 1879, of L,
B. Lord to the company, making the firm as at present. The specialties which
they manufacture are N. H. Downs’ Elixir, Baxter’s Mandrake Bitters, and
Arnica and Oil Liniment, besides a large line of toilet articles, extracts, essences,
and other proprietary medicines. They have traveling salesmen in all New
England and the Middle States, while their sales extend to all parts of the

Union.

 

(LYMAN BLOCK.)

The stores known as the Lyman block, Nos. 179—183 College street, and
Nos. 118, 120, 122 Church street, were erected by John and Cornelius Wick-
ware, on the site purchased by them of Col. Henry Thomas, January 15, 1829.
It was built in the summer of 1829, for their dry goods trade, and was the second
store erected on Church street, now the principal business street of the city.
Mr. Sion E. Howard’s store on the block north, the site of the present How-
ard Opera House, being the first. The block was sold to Jonathan Wick-
ware, August 22, 1834, and by him to Samuel Hickok, Feb. 24, 1835. It
was purchased by Capt. Gideon Lathrop, May 15, 1838, and was successively
occupied by Messrs. D. W. Ingersol & Co., John S. Potwin & Co., and
Joseph Wait, for dry goods and general country trade. Mr. Elias Lyman,
who had received his early merchantile education in the house of Justin and
Elias Lyman (his father), then extensive merchants and jobbers at Hartford,
Vt., purchased the block in 1844, for his dry goods business. In 1847, Mr.
Lyman formed a partnership with his cousin, Edward Lyman, now the senior
partner of the wholesale and retail dry goods house of Lyman & Allen. The
firm of E. & E. Lyman continued till 1851, when Mr. Elias Lyman retired,

Mr. Edward Lyman succeeding to the business, in the same store, till 1868.
From that date till 1878, the store was occupied by L. W. Page, and subse-
quently by Messrs A. B. Simonds & Co., dry goods merchants. Since Sep-
tember, 1878, it has been occupied by A. N. Percy, manager of the Burling-
ton Clothing Co.

Lyman & Allen, wholesale dealers in dry and fancy goods.—This firm,
located on Church and Bank streets, was established in 1868, as a continua-
tion of the business commenced by Mr. Edward Lyman, the senior member
of the firm, in 1848. Their store is large and commodious, 74x45 feet, and
employs sixteen persons, while two salesmen are kept upon the road. The
business done by the firm amounts to $200,000.00 annually.

Van Sicklen, Seymour & Co.—In 1856, the firm of Van Sicklen & Walker
was organized for the wholesale trade of general groceries and provisions. In
1878, the firm was changed as it now is, being the oldest in this line in the
city, and still does business at the old “stone stores,” South Wharf. They
give employment to ten men.

BREWERIES.

About 1800, Daniel Staniford owned a distillery on the north side of Pearl
street, near the present Winooski avenue, where he brewed ale, beer and por-
ter, and manufactured othex fluids which even the phlegmatic votary of lager
drinking cannot claim as ‘“‘non-intoxicating,” Another distillery was subse-
quently operated nearer the head of Pearl street, by Loomis & Bradley.
Samuel Hickok built a brewery on the west side of Champlain street, which
was burned down. It was afterwards rebuilt by George Peterson, about
1837, who used it for many years in manufacturing ale, usually about 1,500
barrels each year. It was taken by

Ammi F. Stone, in 1871, who manufactured about 3,000 barrels per year.
In 1878, he added the business of bottling lager, and manufactured the same
for two years, when its manufacture was discontinued, though he still con-
tinues the bottling, procuring his lager at Albany, N. Y., using about 400
barrels per year.

BANKS.

Soon after the year 1800, many attempts to establish banks of discount and
deposit based upon a circulating currency were made, but the people were
not then in a condition to receive them. They believed in the exchange of
commodities rather than the to them frail and unreliable I. O. U.’s of the
banks, and that “by introducing a more extensive credit the tendency of
banks would be to palsy the vigor of industry and to stupefy the vigilance of
economy, the only two honest, general and sure sources of wealth.” Conse-
quently the petitions to the legislature, not only from Burlington, but from
different parts of the State, were met with a sturdy resistance. In 1803, a

bill for establishing a bank here was passed by the assembly, at Westminster,
8
II4 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON,

 

by a vote of ninety-three to eighty-three, but was non-concurred in by the
governor and his council. Again, in 1805, a similar bill passed the house of
representatives, and was likewise non-concurred in, and failed to becomea
law. But in 1806, the Vermont State Bank was chartered, and during the
following year a branch was established at Burlington, where it remained until
1812, when the legislature ordered its removal to Woodstock. The bank
was located on the west side of the square, and its business transacted by
Samuel Hickok, who acted as cashier. By the original act establishing the
branch, it was provided that the directors of the State Bank, thirteen in num-
ber, chosen annually by the legislature, should assign three of their number to
said branch, two of which should constitute a quorum to manage the prudential
concerns of the said branch. The two directors residing in this locality were
William C. Harrington and Noah Chittenden. In 1816, an application was
made to the legislature for establishing another branch here, which, after much
discussion and delay, was granted in 1818, and the Bank of Burlington immedi-
ately went into operation, occupying a building on the north side of the
square, and shortly afterwards a two-story building on the present site of the
Howard Opera House, where it did a successful business for many years, its
charter being extended by the legislature three different periods, by acts ap-
proved November 5, 1830, November 8, 1847, and November. 20, 1861. The
bank had a capital of $150,000.00, and was managed by a board of seven
directors, who chose a president and cashier. Cornelius P. Van Ness was the
first president, and Andrew Thompson, cashier. Business was suspended and
the institution went out of existence, January 1, 1868, by a proclamation of
the governor, Paul Dillingham, annulling the charters of all State banking
institutions. In 1830, a branch of the United States Bank was established
here, and continued business until the expiration of the charter of the parent
bank. Their banking house was situated on the northeast corner of College
and St. Paul streets, where the Savings Bank now is. The officers of the
institution were, Heman Allen, president, and Thomas Hockley, cashier.
The Farmers’ and Mechanics’ Bank was chartered November 4, 1834, with a
capital of 100,000.00, John Peck, president, and Thomas Hockley, cashier.
Their banking house was situated on the northeast corner of St. Paul and
College streets, where they did business until 1868, their charter being extended
October 31, 1846, and November 20, 1861.

The Commercial Bank of Burlington was chartered November 8, 1847, with
a capital of $150,000.00, and Harry Bradley, president, and Martin A. Sey-
mour, cashier. Its charter was extended in 1861, and it continued business
as a State Bank until 1868, since which time it has been operated as a private
institution by V. P. Noyes, with J. E. Lovell, cashier.

The Merchants’ Bank was incorporated November 10, 1849, with a capital
of $150,000.00, Timothy Follett, president, and H. S. Noyes, cashier. It first
commenced business on the east side of Water street, and subsequently moved
to its present location on College street. In 1865, it was reorganized as a

National bank, with a capital of $300,000.00, under its present name of
Merchants’ National Bank. A year or two later the capital was increased to
$400,000.00, and in 1870, it bought out the First National Bank, with which
it was consolidated, making its capital $700,000.00, which was subsequently
decreased, until it now has a capital of $500,000.0c, and a surplus fund of

& Frissell, being one of the oldest insurance agencies in the city, having been
established by S. Wires, in 1848, and represents some of the strongest foreign
and American companies.

The Burlington Savings Bank, \ocated on the northeast corner of St. Paul
and College streets, was chartered by the legislature December 13, 1847, with
John N. Pomeroy, president ; Wyllys Lyman, vice-president ; and Edward A.
Stansbury, secretary. The bank has always done a good business and retained
the confidence of its depositors since it first commenced operation, the month
following the grant of its charter, January 1848. It now has the names of
many depositors on its books, whose money is judiciously and safely invested.
The present officers are: S. M. Pope, president ; C. F. Ward, treasurer ; and
F. W. Ward, teller.

The Farmers and Mechanics Savings Institution and Trust Company,
located on College street, was chartered by the legislature November 11, 1870,
with a capital of $100,000.00, with power to increase the same to $500,000.00,
and “to receive moneys on deposit or in trust, at such rate of interest or on
such terms as may be agreed upon, the rate of interest to be allowed for de-
posits not to exceed the legal rate.” ‘The present list of officers is as follows :

hours.

Pusiic BUILDINGS.

The public buildings are all substantial, well-built structures, the finest of
which is the county court-house, located on Church street. It is an elegant
building, two stories in height, with a mansard roof, built of cut and hammered
stone, and said to be the second best public building i in the State. Its structure
was commenced in 1871, and completed in 1873, costing between $50,000.00
and $60,000.00. The county jail is situated on Church street, midway be-
tween Bank and Cherry streets, upon land conveyed for the purpose by Capt.
King, in 1802. It is a two-story structure, built of brick, and well adapted for
the convenience and safety of those who for a time may become involuntary
guests of the county. The City Hall, located on the southeastern corner of
the Square, was built in the years 1853 and 1854. It is 80 by 80 feet, with a
basement, which is built of stone, the other two stories being brick with stone
trimmings. The basement is used for a police office, and shops and stores of
various kinds ; the first story for the city offices, and the upper story for the hall,
and is valued at about $36,000.00. On August 4, 1854, congress passed an
act appropriating $40,000.00 for the erection of a custom house, postoffice,
and rooms for the district judge of the United States courts, at Burlington,
and also enough to purchase a location for the building. A site was selected on
the southeast corner of Main and Church streets, containing two and one-half
acres of land, for which $7,750.00 was paid. The construction of the build-
ing was commenced in the fall of 1855, and finished in the spring of 1857.
In June, 1858, an appropriation was made of $4,000.00, for paving and
grading the grounds and furnishing the building. It is made of brick, iron
and stone, and is fire-proof; only the doors, base-boards, and the floors of the
upper story are made of wood. In 1870, a city market building was erected
on the corner of Main street and Winooski avenue, at a cost of $10,000.00.
It was used for a time and gave promise of proving of great public utility, but
soon grew into disfavor, was abandoned, and now stands unoccupied.

EDUCATIONAL.

As early as 1790, the town was divided into school districts, by a committee
appointed for that purpose, consisting of Col. Frederick Saxton, Capt. David
Stanton, and Daniel Hurlburt, who reported said division to be two for the
whole township. It thus remained until 1795, when a third was added, from
the southern part of the town, and to this number was added one more during
the following year, consisting of “the house lots at Burlington Bay,” the
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 117

 

nucleus of the village. From that time until 1813, districts were added, un-
til the town had eight, Nos. 1, 2, and 8 of which being located at the village.
In 1815, the boundaries of the districts having become uncertain and indefi-
nite, on the 28th of April, John Johnson, Nathan Smith, and George Robin-
son were appointed a committee to ascertain the lines of the several districts.
They reported at a meeting held on the 12th of the following May. The report
was accepted, and the districts established accordingly. This report con-
tained the boundaries of seven districts: The village district, bounded on
the south by the south lines of lots No. 160, 158, 164, 184, and the westerly
half of lot 109 ; on the east by a line running from the centre of the south
line of lot No. 109, northerly, east of the college grounds, to the river, just east
of the residence of the late John N. Pomeroy; on the west and north by the
lake and river. No. 1 included the territory at the falls and 1oo-acre lots
lying on the river, and most of the two three-acre lots adjoining the latter.
Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, just as they remained for many years. In 1816, the
part of the town northwest of the village was formed into a district and num-
bered 7. From this time until 1820, no changes were made ; but at that time
district No. 8 was formed out the territory near the High bridge, being the
easterly end of district No. 1. In 1829, the village district was divided into
six districts, numbered 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, to which was subsequently
added 15 and 16. A union school district was organized, December 28,
1849, composed of districts No. 10, 12, 13, 14 and 1s. Only scholars in
the higher branches of learning from the districts composing the Union dis-
trict attended the school, which was equal in all respects to the best acade-
mies in the State. Thus affairs stood at the time the city was organized, the
Union School being located on the northwest corner of College and Willard
streets, where the High School now is, and each of the districts possessed a
good school-house, where school was usually kept from six to ten months
each year. Previous to the first day of April, 1868, the city was divided into
eleven school districts, and under the charge of asuperintendent ; but on that
date an amendment to the city charter came into effect, and since that time
they have been under the charge of a board of commissioners, who are respon-
sible for the schools in a higher degree than the district school officers ever
were. Accordingly, they decline to consider the general reputation of a
teacher, or even the State’s certificates as sufficient recommendation for a
place in the schools, and insist on a special examination of applicants by their
own committee. Under this plan the schools have been greatly increased in
usefulness, and the city now has a most excellent school system, with a fine
high school, a grammar school, three intermediate, four primary, a primary
and intermediate, one with primary, intermediate and grammar grades, an
ungraded, and an evening school, employing forty-two teachers, to whom is
paid an aggregate annual salary of $15,594.85. The High School building
was erected in 1878, at a cost $30,000.00. It is seventy-four feet long by
fifty-four feet wide, three stories high, and is so arranged as to accommo-

date the entire highschool department, and at the same time, when necessity
requires, affords a fine audience hall for general exercises, exhibitions, etc.
From 1860, up to 1871, the city had no additional school-house accommo-
dations, with the population largely increased in that time. So the commis-
sioners adopted and recommended to the city a plan that would accommo-
date the high school department, and extend the tax for the same for over a
period of five years, so as to raise a small tax each year until the whole
amount should be paid ; and after much debate and time spent in the exam-
ination of grounds, located the building, with the unanimous approval of the
city council, upon the old academy site, on College street. The school is.
under the very able charge of D. Temple Torrey, principal.

South Burlington now has a population of 665, is divided into six schools dis-
tricts and contains six common schools, employing six female teachers, to
whom is paid an aggregate salary of $1,000.00. Theschools are usually open
from six to ten months during the year, with an aggregate average attendance
of about 100 pupils.

University of Vermont and State Agricultural College—No University in
the United States can boast a finer site than that belonging to this venerable
institution, chartered November 3, 1791, thus lacking but a few years of its
centennialanniversary. Its buildings cap a crest of land on the eastern side of
the city, 277 feet above the lake and one mile back from the shore, command-
ing a beautiful view of the lake, the Adirondacks, Green Mountains, and the
valleys of Winooski River and Lake Champlain. The corporation was organized
on the same day its charter was issued. In 1794, the original dwelling for the
president was commenced, nearly finished in 1795, but not completed so as
to be occupied until 1799, when the Rev. Daniel C. Sanders was authorized
to occupy the building, and opened thereir a school to fit boys for college.
In October of the following year, 1800, Mr. Sanders was chosen president,
and instruction was commenced in the University, four students being
admitted. In seven years the number had increased to forty-seven. The
original college building was erected the following year, 1801, a structure of
cruciform shape, four stories in height, 160 feet long, seventy-five feet wide
in the central part, and forty-five feet in the wings, containing a chapel, seven
public rooms, and forty-five chambers for students.

In the course of the war of 1812~’15, the college edifice was taken by the
U.S. Government, to be used, first as an arsenal, and finally for barracks.
This compelled a suspension of the institution ; the salaried officers were dis-
missed in March, 1814, and the students recommended to other colleges. In
September, 1815, the University was reorganized, the buildings having been
put in complete repair by the Government. In 1824, this building was
burnec, with the library and apparatus, and on the following 2oth of June,
1825, the corner-stone of the present edifice was laid by Gen. LaFayette.
As this building is now in process of re-construction, a detailed account of it
would be superfluous. It may be said, however, that the new building will

be higher than the old one, but of the same length (250 feet), and will group
all the public rooms in the middle of the building, leaving the ends or wings
for dormitories.

The library building was erected in 1862. It contains a valuable collec-
tion of 20,000 volumes. The museum occupies the ground floor of the build-
ing, while the casts and other treasures of the Park Gallery of Arts may be
found in the third story.

The Vermont Agricultural College was chartered in 1864, under the act of
Congress of July 2, 1862, and by the act of November g, 1865, was incor-
porated with the University of Vermont. Each institution is represented in
the Board of Control by nine trustees, those of the Agricultural College
being elected by the legislature.

In addition to the medical course and the usual course in arts, including
languages, mathematics, the natural sciences and philosophy, the University
offers courses in civil engineering, in theoretical and applied chemistry, in
agriculture and related branches, and in metallurgy and mining engineering ;
as also a literary-scientific course, which omits the Greek of the course in
arts, and fills its place with sciences and modern languages. Women are ad-
mitted to all the courses except the medical.

The whole number of those who have completed their studies in the Uni-
versity, up to 1881, is 1,771. The graduates in medicine from 1823 to 1836,
number 116; between 1853, the period of reorganization, and 1881, they
count 701, or 817 in all. The total of academic graduates is 954, of whom
about 200 became clergymen, 355 lawyers, and 70 physicians ; others are
teachers, farmers, editors, merchants, etc. It is expected that the re-con-
structed edifice will be ready for occupancy in October, 1882, by which time,
also, a bronze statue of LaFayette will grace the park in front of the main
college building, For both the re-building and the statue the University will
be indebted to the generosity of John P. Howard, Esq., who has already more
than once testified his interest in the institution by very substantial tokens.

curator of buildings; Prof. Perkins, curator of museum ; and Prof. Barbour,
superintendent of grounds ; Prof. Grinnell, secretary of the medical faculty.
The Medical Department of the University was first fully organized in 182t.
The gentlemen who composed the faculty at that time were: John Pome-
roy, professor of surgery; James K. Platt, professor of midwifery; Arthur L.
Porter, professor of chemistry ; Nathan R. Smith, professor of anatomy; and
William Paddock, professor of practice and materia medica. Instruction
was given by these gentlemen and their successors for thirteen years, during
which time 114 students were graduated from the institution. The result of
the enterprise was not successful, for after 1825, the number of students
steadily diminished, and, in 1836, the department ceased to exist. Two un-
successful attempts to revive it were made by Dr. S. W. Thayer, the first in
1840, the second in 1842; but it was not until 1853, that Dr. Thayer, with
the aid of President Smith, Rev. John Wheeler, Prof. Benedict, Hon. John
N. Pomeroy, and other public-spirited citizens of Burlington, succeeded in re-
organizing the Medical College. The new medical faculty consisted of
Horatio Nelson, professor of surgery; S. W. Thayer, professor of anatomy ;
Orrin Smith, professor of obstetrics; Henry Erni, professor of chemistry ; and
Walter Carpenter, professor of materia medica. Since this time the growth
and prosperity of the institution have been uninterrupted, a fact which is
owing mainly to the untiring efforts of Professors Thayer and Carpenter.
During their long connection with the medical department, these gentlemen

(MEDICAL DEPARTMENT, UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT.)

have spared neither time nor labor in the promotion of its welfare. Prof.
Carpenter filled the chair of materia medica from the organization of the col-
lege in 1853, until 1857, when he was made professor of theory and practice,
a position which he held until his resignation, in 1881. Prof. Thayer lectured
on anatomy and surgery, besides discharging the duties of dean and secre-
tary, from 1855 until 1872, when he left Burlington to reside for some years
inthe West. At this time he was made emeritus professor of anatomy. On
his return to active practice in Burlington, in 1881, he was re-appointed dean
of the medical faculty, and took the chair of hygiene and State medicine. It
is to the liberality of Prof. Thayer that the college owes a greater part of its
museum.

No single act of any person has conferred so much benefit upon the Medi-
cal College, however, as the generous deed of Miss Mary Fletcher, in found-
ing the hospital which bears her name. Since the opening of the Mary
Fletcher Hospital, medical students have had access to its wards and amphi-
theatre, and are thus enabled to enjoy such clinical advantages as are af-
forded by very few, if any other places of the size of Burlington. The Medi-
cal College building is situated on the College Green, near the main University
122 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON,

 

building, and within five minutes’ walk of the Fletcher Hospital. Through
the generosity of a number of the citizens of Burlington, it was repaired and
enlarged in 1880, so that each of its two lecture-rooms will now accommodate .
more than two hundred students. A two-story addition has also been built,
which contains a dissecting-room and a chemical laboratory, both large, well.
appointed apartments.

The Vermont Episcopal Institute.—The Vermont Episcopal Institute was
founded by the Rt. Rev. John Henry Hopkins, D. D., LL. D., first Bishop
of Vermont, and incorporated by the legislature November 14, 1854. John,’
H. Hopkins, Charles B. Marvin, Thomas H. Canfield, Edward j. Phelps, and |
Albert L. Catlin constituted the first board of trustees, the latter three of
whom still are members of the board. The property held by the corporation
consists of a tract of land one hundred acres in extent, located upon Rock |
Point, distant about two miles from the Burlington postoffice, directly across
the bay and within full view of the city, possessing advantages of extraor-
dinary attraction in point of healthfulness, pure air, beautiful scenery, etc. In |
point of scenery, especially, the location is unexcelled. Rock Point itself has
already been mentioned for its wild, picturesque aspect; but the lovely view
it affords of the lake, the city, the Green and Adirondack Mountains, sur-
passes its own picturesqueness, and situated also, as it is, in the midst of an
historical region, renders it, as we have said before, a peculiarly advantageous
site fora school and seminary of learning. Upon this property is the brick resi-
dence of the late Bishop Hopkins, also a large stone building, erected from speci-
mens of marble found on the place, 125 feet long, fifty-seven feet wide at the north- |.
ern end, and sixty-six feet wide at the southern end, in whichis a beautiful chapel, -
complete, for the accommodation of 150 persons, and equipped with all other ,
appurtenances for a first-class boarding school, which will accommodate sev-
enty-five pupils, with the principal and his family. The style of architecture
is the Collegiate Gothic, of the same general character which prevails in the
English Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. The tower, sixty feet in
height, projects twenty-two feet, and the chancel window of the chapel, which!
isin the second story, isa fine example of ecclesiastical architecture. Inside, the:
chapel is decorated with several beautiful scripture paintings, executed by the
late Bishop. The building itself, with its deeply recessed windows and doors;
tall, projecting tower, and walls flanked with buttresses, presents an appeary
ance which is universally considered grand and impressive.

The school has been in operation twenty-one years, under the charge of
Rev. Theodore A. Hopkins, a son of the late Bishop, and during that time
acquired a wide and extensive reputation as a sound and thorough educator.
He is now succeeded by Henry H. Ross, A. M., an experienced teacher;
well fitted for maintaining and increasing the high standard of instruction
established by his predecessor. The original tract of land and all the build-
ings (except the seminary building which he erected during his life time) were
owned by the late Bishop Hopkins. In his experience as Bishop, he saw

that Vermont was at best a small Diocese, and that by reason of the constant
drain of its young and most active population to the more attractive fields in
the West, the Church would be necessarily small and weak, and with difficulty
could sustain a Bishop, and withal had no Church school within its borders.
He determined, therefore, so far as he was able, to provide for this deficiency
by “ giving and devoting,” as he expressed it in his deed, “all this property
perpetually to the service of Almighty God, as the property of the Protestant
Fpiscopal Church in the Diocese of Vermont, for the purpose of being the
reidence of the present and every furture Bishop of said Diocese, and the
site {or a Theological Seminary and school in strict conformity to the stand-
a d doctrines, worship, and discipline of the Protestant Episcopal Church in
th Unted States of America.” The deed bears date December 15, 1854,
and the property was then valued at $20,000.00, all of which he conveyed to
the corporation for purposes set forth in the deed. From that time on he
labored. and procured during his life-time some $40,000.00, which was ex-
pended in the erection of the Seminary and other buildings, and the accumu-
Jat'on of a fund for the erection of a girls’ school, the foundation of which he
had commenced, when he was called from the Church militant to the Church
triumphant, on the gth day of January, 1868.

‘Thus does the Church in Vermont possess, what can hardly be said of any
other Diocese in the Union, a residence for her Bishop, with a farm of one
hundred acres, furnishing ample room for the erection, in addition to the
present ones, of buildings for a young ladies’ school, a Theological Seminary,
a hospital, and, indeed, all the buildings necessary for the full working and
development of the Church, and this, too, through the efforts and labor, and
by the donation of all the property he possessed in this world, of her devoted,
venerable and lamented first Bishop. It is proper to say, however, that the
late Bishop was assisted and sustained in all his undertakings and plans by a
board of trustees, composed of clergymen and laymen from different parts of
the Diocese, who always acted in harmony with him, and to whom the Church
owes a debt of gratitude. While all of these labored and devoted time to
the enterprise, without receiving a dollar of compensation, or even re-imburse-
ents for their expenses, it would not be invidious, we take it, to mention
seme who have served upon the Executive Committee and devoted much of
their time and attention to the cause. Of these were the late Julius E.
Higgins, of Brandon, James H. Williams, of Bellows Falls, Richard G. Cole,
(f Burlington, and Harmon Canfield, of Arlington, all of whom have gone to
their rest ; and of the living, Rt. Rev. Bishop Bissell, Rev. Dr. Sweet, Hon.
Roderick Richardson, of Montpelier, Hon. George R. Chapman, of Wood-
stock, Hon. Alfred Keith, of Sheldon, Hon. A. L. Catlin, Artemus Prouty,
and Thomas W. Canfield, of Burlington, the latter gentleman having been
treasurer most of the time, and closely identified with and assisting the late
Bishop during the earlier years, when the construction and organization were
going on, and who had, during that time, the immediate supervision and care

of the whole property and assets of the corporation. In the last report 9
the convention of the Diocese, the trustees say: ‘It is now a quarter of ;
century since the late Bishop Hopkins made his first annual report in behal
of the trustees of the convention. Some who were members of the Boar¢
then are with us to-day; and amid all the trying exigencies through whict
our Nation has passed during that time, the seven periods of financial disaste
which have occurred, there has been no interruption in the workings of the
Institute, and not a dollar of its funds has been lost, $73,000 of which have
come into their hands.” Between the residence and the Seminary building
the trustees have laid out a cemetery, overlooking the lake, which has beer
duty consecrated by the present Bishop of the Diocese, and a beautiful mon
ument, designed by his eldest son, erected from money contributed by friend
in different parts of the Diocese, appropriately marks the spot where rest the
remains of the late Bishop and seven members of his family.

The Burlington Commercial School—This institution was establised by
the present principal, Mr. G. W. Thompson, in 1878, since which time it ha:
been steadly increasing in public favor, as a thorough educator in the training
which fits young men for the business cares and responsibilities of life. Mr
Thomson also is engaged by the city to teach penmanship and book-keeping
in the public schools.

Here we will end our brief sketch of the educational advantages afforded
by Burlington, “the City of Learning,” as we have heard it called, with one other
thought which presents itself. Some of the oldest residents ure able to recall to
mind a neat, dapper pedagogue, one who always insisted upon using a quill
pen, and also obliged his pupils to do the same, though his penmanship, a
specimen of which may be seen in an old Bible, in the possession of the
Brinsmaid family, proclaimed him to have been a thorough master of the
science. Years ago, however, he laid aside the ferule and quill, and went to his
long rest. His son was named Chester—Chester A. Arthur.

LIBRARIES.

The Fletcher Free Library.—In the summer of 1873, Mrs. Mary L.
Fletcher, with her daughter, Miss Mary M. Fletcher, gave to the city of Bur-
-lington twenty thousand dollars for the founding of a city library, to be
called the Fletcher Free Library. Half of this sum was to be spent at once
for books, the other half kept for a library fund. Charles Russell, Henry
Loomis, and Henry P. Hickok, were named trustees of this fund. The mayor
of the city, ex-officio, with Matthew H. Buckham, L. G. Ware, E. J. Phelps,
and Samuel Huntington, were to be trustees of the library. Each board of
trustees was empowered to fill vacancies in their numbers occasioned by
death, resignation or removal from the city. The city government accepted
the gift, and assumed the charge of the library, and have ever since shown 4
wise care of, and made generous appropriations for it, as an important means

to public education and a credit tothe city. The large room in the old court-
house, which the court had just vacated for their new building, was fitted with
gallery and cases and the proper furnishings, and proved a commodious and
light place for library use. Ten thousand dollars of the gift was spent, and
an excellent selection made of standard books, with a good supply of the
more popular sort. Since then, by a gift of four thousand dollars more, from
its generous founders, and by kind gifts from various associations and from
private persons, the library has grown to its present large proportions. The
entire libraries of the Young Men’s Christian Association, the Young Men’s
Association, and of Green Mountain lodge I. O. of O. F.,—in all upwards of
two thousand volumes—were turned over to the trustees. Besides which,
Mr. B. B. Smalley presented to the library three very large and fine photo-
graphic views, and Mrs. Irene F. Stetson the well-known steel engraving of
Washington, by J. H. Hills, of this city.

The library now contains about 15,000 volumes and pamphlets, under the
care of the efficient librarian, Mr. T. P. W. Rogers, and is also a depository of
public documents of the UnitedStates. Its generous founders, Mrs. Mary Law-
rence (Peaslee) Fletcher and Miss Mary Martha Fletcher, were the wife and
daughter of Thaddeus R. Fletcher, one of the wealthiest and most prominent
citizens of Burlington. Miss Mary M. Fletcher, in addition to her share in
founding the library, also established, in 1876, the public hospital mentioned
in the sketch of the Medical College, the endowment of which called for nearly
a quarter of a million dollars. This hospital, (see next page,) in addition to
its great value as an educator and a public benefit, has lately established (April,
1882,) a training school for nurses, under charge of a competent corps of
professors, where those who intend to make nursing a profession, or any who
maywish to receive instruction, may do so on payment of a small fee.

Burlington Law Library Association.—This association includes among its
members nearly the whole membership of the bar of the county. They have
a large library, located in the court-house, which is much patronized by the
legal profession, as the annual reports of many of the older States are taken.
The officers are as follows: Russell S. Taft, president; Charles E. Allen,
secretary ; W. L. Burnap, treasurer, and Seneca Haselton, librarian

Home For DESTITUTE CHILDREN.

This charitable institution was founded October 3, 1865, through the per-
sonal efforts of Miss Lucia T. Wheeler, of Burlington. A month later it was
incorporated by the legislature, the object being to provide destitute children
/ a home to “supply their necessities, promote their intellectual, moral and
religious improvement, and fit them for situations of usefulness and self-
/ maintenance.” The charity was placed under the control of a board, in

which each denomination of the Protestant Church should be represented.
The necessity for its establishment, and the judicious character of its manage-
ment, are apparent in the success of the charity from the first. Beginning
with seven little waifs of society, it has, during the years of its existence,
taken and found good homes for several hundred children, besides the hun-
dred who are at present inmates of the institution. July 16, 1866, the U.S.
Marine Hospital and grounds were purchased by the corporation for $7,000.-
oo, the building enlarged and improved at a cost of $23,000.00, so that it will
now accommodate one hundred inmates. The institution is maintained by a
permanent fund of $51,000.00, in addition to which Mr. John P. Howard pre-
sented them, in 1881, with the magnificent opera house and block that bears
his name, which cost over 100,000.00. The present officers of the institution,
are as follows: President, Mrs. William C. Hickok; vice-president, Mrs.
James A. Shedd ; treasurer, Mrs. L. M. Clapp ; secretaries, Mrs. C. E. Miner,
and Mrs. A. G. Pierce, assistant ; managers. Mrs. J. Shedd, Mrs. W. F.

Loomis, Esq., Hon. Wilham G. Shaw, Miss Mary C. ‘Torrey, Mrs. Sarah C.
Cole, and Edward Lyman, Esq.; trustees of permanent fund, Charles T.
Ward, Esq., Hon. William G. Shaw, and Hon. Samuel Huntington ; county
managers, Addison County, Mrs. A. P. Tupper, of Middlebury ; Bennington

Washington County, Mrs. Joseph Polana, of Montpelier; Windham County,
Mrs. C. P. Thompson, of Brattleboro; Windsor County, Mrs. H. A. John-
son, of Woodstock.

Their building was erected from an appropriation made by congress in
1855, of $35,000.00, for the erection of a marine hospital at Burlington, with
asum sufficient to purchase the land for a situation. A site was selected, two
miles south of the village, on the west side of the Shelburne road, embracing
ten acres, for which was paid $1,750.00. The building was commenced in
1856, and finished in 1858, during which later day another appropriation of
$4,000.00 was made. As it was not occupied for the purposes for which it
was constructed, when the late cival war began the military authorities went
into possession, and it was occupied as a military hospital for several years,
principally for Vermont soldiers.

St. JosEPH’s ORPHAN ASYLUM.

St. Joseph’s Orphan Asylum, a Roman Catholic institution, located on the
corner of Pearl and Prospect streets, was established by Bishop De Goesbriand,
the first Catholic Bishop of Vermont, in 1854, and incorporated in 1866. The
Asylum receives destitute orphans, educates them, and as soon as possible
furnishes them with suitable homes. The institution is managed by the Sisters
of Charity, under the control of Sister Catharine, Superior. The Asylum has
furnished, since its organization, homes for 1,400 children, while eighty-four
are now inmates.

HOTELS.

The first hotel was kept by Capt. Gideon King,* on Battery street, who after-
wards opened a hotel in the building now standing on the northeast corner of
the square, known as the Strong block. The Howard House was kept for a
long time on the north side of the square, where Turk’s clothing store now
is, and was destroyed by fire in 1848. The Green Mountain House, after-
wards called the Pearl Street
House, at the head of Pearl
street, was used as a hotel for
many years. The place lat-
terly called the Omnium Gath-
erum, on the corner of Pine
and Pearl streets, was also
one of the old-time houses.
A tavern was kept for about
° fifty years at the junction of
the Winooski turnpike and

; the High bridge and Hines-
een Nese seep burgh road, called the Eld-
ridge place, and about one-half mile east of the Eldridge place a tavern was
kept by Maj. Ebenezer Brown, and one also about two miles south of the
city, on the Shelburne road. The Lake House, located on Battery street, a
large, first-class hotel, was destroyed by fire several years since. At present,
the city has as good hotel accommodations as are to be found in the State.

The Van Ness House.—This hotel, named in honor of Gov. Cornelius Van
Ness, is a large, four-story brick building, located on the southwest corner of
Main and St. Paul streets. The present building was erected in 1870, by D.
C. Barber, upon the site of the old Franklin House, latterly the Howard
House, which burned June 11, 1867. It has 135 large, airy sleeping apart-
ments, in addition to eight suits for families, and also several elegantly furnished

 

 

* This has been the generally accepted fact, so stated by the “ Ast. Gazeteer’’ and other works; but
Capt. Daniel Lyon, one of the oldest residents of the city, says that it was not Gideon King at all who kept
this hotel, but Joseph, his brother. The old hotel was removed and a brick house erected on its site about the
year 1840, Gideon lived in the house just east of it, which 1s still standing, and known as No. 23 King street-

parlors, and a dining-hall capable of seating 150 guests. The whole is hand-
somely furnished with modern furniture, of a tasty pattern, supplied with an
elevator, bath-rooms, closets, etc., and indeed every modern convenience for the
comfort of its guests, not forgetting to illuminate its public halls and parlors
with electric lights. The present proprietors, Messrs, Bowman, Woodbury &
Clark, came into possession of the property January 1, 1882, previous to which
it was conducted by W. F. Bowman & Co. Their experience as popular
hotel men rapidly made itself felt, and the general popularity of the house has
since increased in the same ratio.

The American Hotel.—This house, one of the old landmarks of the town,
has long been one of the most popular hotels in this region. Why it should
be called the “ American,” and the hotel on the opposite corner be named
the “Van Ness,” we cannot conceive ; for é¢ should certainly have the honor,
if honor it is, as a part of the building as it now stands was once the resi-
dence of Gov. Van Ness, and in its time one of the finest in the town. Many
historical incidents and episodes are connected with it, not the least of which,
perhaps, is that Gen. LaFayette, during his visit to the city (village it was
then), in 1825, held a levee in one of its parlors.* The room is still used as
a parlor, located in the northwest corner of the building, opening just to the
right of the principal stairway. In the center of it the brave old General
stood, the bosom friend of Washington, and received the salutations of the
masses who crowded the apartment, which remains to-day essentially in the
same condition that it was on that eventful evening—the same windows,
doors, wainscoting and mantles, nothing materially changed except the fur-
niture. Still, were one who was present then to visit the house now, he
would scarcely recognize it, so much enlarged and modernized has it been
made. The building as it now stands is a four-story brick structure, extend-
ing south on St. Paul street one hundred feet, and east on Main street about
the same distance, containing over one hundred well-ventilated, well-furnished
sleeping apartments, two large sample rooms, two spacious double parlors,
and a dining-hall with accommodations for 200 guests. The building is sup-

 

* This tradition has generally been accepted as truth; but we have abundant. evidence that the levee was
held at the residence of Gov. Van Ness, now known as the Lawrence Barnes house, on Main street. Still, the
General may have been in the present American Hotel during the evening, and in all probability met some com-
pany there, which possibly has led to a misunderstanding of the facts. The following letter, from Mr. J. W.
Hickok, whom we had addressed on the sublject, we think almost conclusive evidence that our view is correct:

‘“‘BuRLinGTon, VT., April 27, 1882.

“Dear Sir: I find on inquiry among our oldest citizens that there is no doubt that Gov. Van Ness was
living on the hill, in the house now owned and occupied by Lawrence Barnes, Esq., in 1824, and entertained
LaFayette there in 1825. Mr. Abner Lowry came to Burlington in 1824, and his first job as a painter was to
paint the Van Ness house (now Barnes house), in the fall of that year. He says he attended the levee in honor
of LaFayette at that house, in June, 1825. Henry P. Hickok, Esq., president of the Merchants’ Bank, was a
student in the University in 1824~’25, and saw LaFayette lay the corner stone of the University. He says he
attended the levee in his honor, at the Barnes house, and was then twenty-one years of age. Mr. L.M. Hagar
also confirms the statement. He was an officer of the Champlain Steamboat Co. during the season of 1824,
under Van Ness as president, and had occasion to visit him at his house during that year, and says that he.
then occupied the building on the hill. I find no testimony among the old people which rebuts this evidence.

“Respectfully yours,
“ J. W. Hickox.”

plied throughout with gas, nicely furnished, and up to the times in every
respect. The proprietor, Mr. L. S. Drew, has been a hotel man all his life,
and proprietor of the American Hotel twenty-one years, during which time
he has made himself extremely popular with the traveling public.

Quincy House.—The Quincy House is a three-story wood building, located
on the northwest corner of St. Paul and Main streets. The building was en.
larged from a dwelling house, and first opened as a hotel by Charles Eaton,
under the name of the Park House, in 1874. ‘The present proprietor, Mr.
Diamond Stone, has greatly improved the place, thoroughly repairing it
throughout, until it is now a neat, tasty hotel, with twenty sleeping apartments,
and a dining-room with capacity for accommodating fifty guests.

Rowe's Hotel.—This hotel, located on the
northwest corner of Church and Cherry
streets, is one of the old landmarks of the
city, having been built previous to the year
1800. Many repairs have been made, how-
ever, so that the building now has a modem
appearance. The present proprietor, Mr.
H. S. Kimball, keeps a neat, respectable
house, and is courteous to his guests.

InsuRaANcE—(HoME OFFICE).

The Vermont Life Insurance Company,
located at No. 179 Main street, was chartered
by the legislature, October 28, 1868, with a
capital of $100,000.00, and commenced busi-
ness January 1, 1869. The first officers were,
—— = Russell D. Taft, president ; R. S. Wires, vice-
(VERMONT LIFE INS. CO.) president; and Warren Gibbs, secretary.
The present officers are, Warren Gibbs, president; Daniel Roberts, vice-
president; and C. A, Turrill, secretary.

 

   

Howarp OPERA House.

This handsome building, located on the southwestern corner of Bank and
Church streets, was erected by Mr. John P. Howard, some four or five years
ago. It is built of pressed brick, sixty-five feet in height, 175 feet long
and 75 feet wide. The auditorium hasa capacity for seating 1,165 persons,
is beautifully furnished and decorated, and has a stage 74x30 feet, The
building, including site, cost between $11 5,000.00 and $120,000.00, Mr.
Howard subsequently gave the house to the Home for Destitute Children.

CEMETERIES,

The date of the first interments in the town cannot now be ascertained,

though it is known that Green Mount cemetery, located on Colchester avenue,
was first used soon after the settlement of the town, and consisted of two
acres until 1869, when it was extended to ten. In addition to this, the city
now has four others, aggregating fifty-six acres, devoted to this purpose. Lake
View is the largest, covering thirty acres; Green Mount comes next with ten: :
Mount St. Joseph’s (Roman Catholic) has eight ; Elmwood Avenue five, and
Calvary (French Roman Catholic) three, completing the fifty-six acres. Elm-
wood Avenue Cemetery was the next established, occupying school lot number
113, and first used at the beginning of the present century. At the March
meeting, in 1812, a committee, consisting of John Johnson, Charles Adams,
and John Eldridge, was appointed “to lay out and ascertain the graveyards
in the town.” At a meeting held April 19, 1813, this committee reported a
plan for laying out what is now called the Eldridge and Elmwood Avenue
Cemeteries, but stated that the interments in the burying-ground at the Falls,
now known as Green Mount Cemetery, were too irregular and crowded to
allow it to be divided into lots and avenues. At an adjourned meeting held
on the 24th of the same month, the committee, on request, reported a series
of rules “for the regulation of the burying-ground north of the village,” now
known as Elmwood Avenue Cemetery. These were formally adopted, and
George Robinson, Charles Adams, and John Johnson were appointed a
special committee to have the entire control, under the rules, of the ground.
For a long series of years no continuous record of interments was kept, and
it is therefore impossible to ascertain the aggregate number; and for a like
reason the figures for Mount St. Joseph’s cannot begin. In the period ex-
tending from 1860, to September 1, 1881, there were 1,598 interments in the
cemetery last named ; in Calvary Cemetery, from 1878, to the same date, 173;
and in Lake View, from 1868, to the same date, 347.

Green Mount Cemetery, however, retains the respect and honor due
to age, and attracts hundreds of visitors each year, not particularly on
account of its beauty, though a beautiful spot it is, and not to obtain a glance
at the magnificent view it affords, but to gaze upon a magnificent monument,
which marks the spot where rest the remains of one of Vermont’s greatest
patriots and heroes, Ethan Allen. The monument to Ethan Allen was erected
by the State of Vermont, by authority of an act of the legislature, passed in
1855, which appropriated $2,000.00 for that purpose, which by contributions,
etc., was increased to $2,700.00, the total cost of the monument, though it
was not completed until 1873, the exercises attending its unveiling occuring
July 4th of that year. It is of Barre granite, the base of the pedestal being
eight feet square on the ground, and consists of two steps of granite, on which
rests a die of solid granite six feet square, in the four faces of which are set
panels of white marble bearing the inscriptions. Above the pedestal rises
a Tuscan shaft of granite, four and a half feet in diameter and forty-two feet
high. Upon its capital, on a base bearing the word ‘“ Ticonderoga,” stands a
heroic statue of Allen, eight feet four inches high, modeled by Peter Stephen-

surrender of the fort “in the name of the Great Jehovah and the Continental
Congress.” The monument is protected by a fence of original design, the
corner posts of which are iron cannon, and the pales are muskets, with bayo-
nets, resting on a base of cut granite. The inscriptions are as follows :—

Ear.ty SETTLEMENT.

Nearly eleven years after the charter was granted, the first proprietors’
‘meeting was held at the house of Capt. Samuel Morris, in Salisbury, Conn.,
March 23, 1774, at which Col. Thomas Chittenden was appointed moderator,
and Ira Allen, clerk. On the following day, March 24th, an adjurned meet-
ing was held. The following is a copy of the records of proceedings :—

“tly. Voted, That whereas, Ethan Allen, Remember Baker, Heman Allen,
Zinri Allen, and Ira Allen, known by the name of the Onion River Company,
who are proprietors in this Township of Burlington on said River (a Town-
ship lately granted by the Governor and Counsel of Newhampshire and is
now in the Province of New York) have expended large sums of money in
cutting a road through the woods from Castleton to said River seventy miles,
and clearing off encumberments from the said lands in them parts, clearing
and cultivating and settling some of these lands and keeping possession which
by us is viewed as a great advantage towards the settlement of these lands in
general, especially the Township of Burlington.

“Whereas, The said Ethan Allen, Remember Baker, Heman Allen, Zinri
Allen and Ira Allen laid out fifteen hundred-acre lots in said Township
bounded on said river. ‘Therefore in consideration of these services done by
them, in consideration of their settlement of five families on said lots with
those that are already on, and girdling five acres on each one-hundred-acre
lot in two years from the first day of June next, improving same,

“Tt is voted ; if proper survey bills be exhibited to the Proprietor’s Clerk
of said Town and recorded in this Book by the first day of June next, the
said lots are confirmed to them as so many acres of their rights and shares in
said Township, said fifteen lots are to be laid seventy rods wide on the river.

“aly. Voted, That each Proprietor have liberty at his own cost to pitch
and lay out to himself one hundred acres on one whole right orshare that they
own in said town, said lots to he laid out not less than seventy rods wide,
exclusive of what hath already been granted to be laid in saidtown. Pro-
vided, they clear and girdle five acres to said right within two years from the
time said lots are laid out.

“3ly. Voted, That there shall be for each one hundred acres to be laid in
the town of Burlington one hundred and three acres laid, which three acres
shall be improved for the use of said town for public highways if needed in
the most convenient place of said lot.

“aly. Voted, That the Proprietors’ Clerk shall record all deeds of sale and
Survey Bills of land in said Burlington that shall be offeredto him if paid a
reasonable reward therefore, and that the survey first recorded or received to
record shall stand good without regard to the dates of said Survey Bills.

“sly. Voted, That Ira Allen shall be a Surveyor to lay out said town.

“6ly. Voted, That this meeting be adjourned to Fortfraderick in Colches-
ter on Onion River, to be held on the first Monday in June next at two
o'clock in the afternoon.

“Tra Allen, Proprietor’s Clerk.”

From this queerly worded, not very literary record, it may be seen that in
1774, the county was settled, and, to some extent, improved. The Onion

River Co. mentioned owned, land, however, not only in this town, but in a
great many others, both in and out of the county. At Winooski falls, just

over the line in Colchester, Ira Allen and the others mentioned had com-
menced a settlement, and built a block-house which they named Fort Fred-
erick, being the “ Fortfraderick”” mentioned in the record, and which was
generally known as the “ Allen settlement.” Here several other proprietors’
meetings were held during the year 1774, and one in 1775, after which none
were held until after the Revolution.

The first to settle in the town was Felix Powell, in 1773, locating upon Apple-
tree Point. He was followed, in 1774, by Stephen Lawrence, of Sheffield,
Mass., who located in the northern part of the town on the River. During
the same year contracts were made by John Chamberlin, Ephraim Wheeler,
Stephen Clapp, Ichabod Nelan, and Benjamin Waite, for lands with a view to
settlement, but nothing much was done by them before the Revolution. The
next settlement was commenced by Lemuel Bradley and others, and during
1774 and 1775, clearings were made on the Winooski opposite the Allen settle-
ment ; but during the latter year a majority of the families retired from the
town, and were followed by those who remained, in 1776. Nothing was heard
from the proprietors from this time until 1781, when, on the zgth of January,
they met at the house of Noah Chittenden, in Arlington, pursuant to a warn-
ing published in the Connecticut Courant, and dated at Sunderland, No-
vember 21, 1780. The following is a record of proceedings :—

“The proprietors met and voted, rly, His Excellency Thomas Chittenden,
moderator. ly, Ira Allen, clerk. 3ly, Ira Allen, treasurer. 4ly, To examine
the proceedings of the former proprietors’ meetings.

“sly. Voted, That on examining the former proceedings of the proprietors,
and considering the peculiar situation of the towns and New Hampshire
Grants, being claimed by New York, and experience in defending, etc., and
the proceedings appearing consonant with the laws and usages of the govern-
ment of New Hampshire and the proceedings of the people of the New Hamp-
shire Grants before the late Revolution, we do therefore hereby ratify and con-
firm all the votes and proceedings of the several proprietors’ meetings as here-
tofore recorded in this book respecting the division of the lands, recording of
survey bills and every other matter and thing, as fully and amply as though
said proprietors’ meetings had been held under the present law and customs
of this State.

“6ly. Voted, That future meetings be called by the clerk by notice in news-
papers in which legal notices are inserted upon application by one-sixteenth
of the proprietors.

“ Adjourned sine die.”

From the close of the Revolution, the town was rapidly settled. In 1783,
Stephen Lawrence, who nine years before purchased a tract of land here,
moved his famlly into town, the first to arrive after the war. He was followed
during the same year by John Doxey, Frederick Saxton and John Collins, and
at the taking of the first census, in 1791, the population amounted to 332, and
in 1800, to 815. John Doxey settled upon the intervale north of the village,
but his settlernent was submerged by an overflow of the river, so he removed
to-the road now running from High bridge to Hinesburgh. Stephen Lawrence,

Samuel Lawrence, Samuel Lane, and John Knickerbocker settled near the
High bridge. John Collins, Job Boynton, Mr. King, and Mr. Keyes, on the
lake shore where the city now is, andsettlements were soon made at the head
of Pearl street. The Loomis family and Frederick Saxton were early settlers
at the latter place. Jonathan Hart, Zachariah Hart, Philip Walker, Isaac
French, Jeremiah French, and John Downer settled quite early that part of
Burlington east of Muddy Run (as it was then ealled), which was subsequently
annexed to Williston. Timothy Titus settled at Muddy Brook, and erected
the first saw-mill built in town, just above the road leading from Burlington to
Williston, previous to 1788. Isaac Webb was one of the first settlers in the
southern part of the town. John Van Sicklen settled in the southeastern part
of the town.

In 1791, there were but three houses at the city, or Bay, as it was then
called, situated near the foot of Battery street. Capt. Job Boynton lived in
one of these, a large frame house built low on the ground. Capt. King kept
a tavern in another, at the northeast corner of King and Battery streets, a
two-story house with a kitchen in the rear, where the county courts were
held for a few years after Burlington was made a shire town. Capt. John
Collins lived in a frame house near the tavern. A Mr. Grant, a Scotchman,
was engaged in the mercantile business in a small one-roomed log store. A
few logs fastened to the shore was the only wharfing.

In 1793, during the winter, Prince Edward, the father of Queen Victoria,
on his trip through this country, honored Burlington with a visit. There
were then only seven framed houses in the village, and but one, that of Phineas
Loomis, large enough to receive so large a company as his suite comprised.
The forest was almost unbroken, except on Battery and Pearl streets Dur-
ing that year, also, Abram Brinsmaid, the patriarch of the present family of
Brinsmaids, came to Burlington for the first time, being on his way from
Connecticut to Montreal, and from a diary kept by him, and now in posses-
sion of one of his sons, we quote the following : —

“July 2, 1793.—When I came to the Bay [Burlington Bay] it gave me
great satisfaction that I could look so far and not see woods. The bay is
about fourteen or fifteen miles across. Burlington street is situated nearly
north and south upon the bay, and has a fine prospect off upon the water.
About four miles west of Burlington there is an island of about four acres
[twelve acres], by the name of Juniper Island; then off at a distance from
that, at the north and at the south, there are two more, right back of which
there is another that is not perceptible, which go by the name of the Four
Brothers. Then south about the same distance there is Rock Dunder, to
appearance about the size of a cock of hay, and some other curiosities that
Ihave not time to mention. When I came to the bay, the boats had set
out for St. Johns and were not expected back until the wind shifted, so I put
up with Col. Keys, and had everything that I wished for my money. After all
this, I went to bed, and rested exceedingly well.

“Tuesday, July 3, 1793.—I awoke in the morning and looked out of my

chamber window and found the wind was fair to bring the boats back again
136 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

to-day. I waited till the afternoon and they had not come, and the prospect
for their coming was not so good as it had been, so I got up my horse and
went up to ’Squire Stanton’s and staid that night. The next day, in
the afternoon, young Mr. Stanton and myself got up our horses and rode
down to the bay to see if there was any opportunity to get a passage to
Canada; but the boat had not returned yet, and the wind was unfavorable,
so we drank some porter, amused ourselves one way and another, and went
home again. The next morning I concluded it was so uncertain when I
could get a passage from the bay, that I would go on a little further by land,
and trust to getting a water passage again. So I started on before breakfast
and went to Milton River and crossed to Amos Mansfield’s, then went to the
sandbar and got old Daddy Joslin to go with his canoe and put me across the
bar.”

Mr. Brinsmaid was disappointed in Canada, and returned to Burlington in
August of the same year, and settled here for life, carrying on the business
of clock making and plating.

In Zhe Letters of John A. Graham, a book published at London, in
1797, we find the following description :—

“ Burlington is situated on a fine Bay of the Lake, distant from Fort St.
John’s about eighty miles, and is laid out in the most regular and best man-
ner. For local advantages and surrounding scenery, Burlington has not its
surperior in the Northern parts of the State. The University of Vermont,
and the Sessions of the Supreme and County Courts are established here. A
house for the President of the College, and several others, are now building.
The office of the Customs for the Port of Alburgh, the only Port in Vermont,
is kept at Burlington by Col. Keys. This gentleman, Messrs. Pearl, Lee,
Stanton, Law, and Coit, are the leading people. Mr. Lee was bred to the
law, but declined the practice, and afterwards turned his attention to the
Presbyterian system of Divinity, in which situation he conducted himself in
such a manner as to be looked up to, and venerated by persons of every de-
scription and every sect, who all unite in paying to his character the tribute
such excellence deserves. To unaffected piety he joins the highest classical
knowledge in the Greek and Latin languages. Between Burlington and
Colchester, about one mile from the Bay, is the great Fall on Onion River,
belonging to Mr. Ira Allen; on the Fall are built large mills, forges, and
iron foundries. In Colchester (the North side of Onion River) is this
Gentleman’s seat ; the place where General Ethan Allen for some time resided
previous to his death. Of the Allens, there are seven brothers, all of whom
are now dead except Levi and Ira. This family emigrated to Vermont from

Salisbury in Connecticut ; but their native place was Roxbury, Litchfield
County.”

The town was organized, by proper election of town officers, March 19,
1797, at which meeting Samuel Lane was chosen town clerk ; Job Boynton,
constable; and Stephen Lawrence, Frederick Saxton, and Samuel Allen,
selectmen. The first justices of the peace were Samuel Lane, and John
Knickerbocker, elected in 1789. Samuel Lane was also the first representa-
tive in the legislature, chosen in 1786. The first meeting for the election of
State officers and councilors was held at the house of Benjamin Adams, on
the first Tuesday of September, 1794, when the vote for governor stood as fol-

lows : Isaac Tichenor, twenty-three ; Thomas Chittenden, seventeen ; Ira Allen,
three ; and Nathaniel Niles, one. The first election for representative to
‘Congress (on record) was held at the same place on the last Tuesday in De-
cember of the same year, when the ballot stood as follows: Israel Smith,
seven ; Isaac Tichenor, seven ; Matthew Lyon, four ; William C. Harrington,
two ; Nathaniel Chipman, one; and Noah Smith, one.

The first marriage on record was that of Samuel Hitchcock to Lucy Caro-
line, daughter of Gen. Ethan Allen, May 26, 1789. The first birth recorded
was that of their daughter, June 5, 1790.

On the rith day of June, 1798, the last meeting of the proprietors was held
at the court-house, with Gideon King, chairman; William C. Harrington,
clerk ; Zaccheus Peaslee, treasurer; and Stephen Pearl, collector. William
Coit, Stephen Pearl, and Zaccheus Peaslee were chosen a committee to examine
the old surveys and make further ones, to make a division of the lands,
and also to ascertain what right’s had been owned by Ira Allen, as Allen
had avoided mentioning the names of his grantors in his deeds to the
settlers. On the 16th, 17th, 18th, rgth and 2oth days of June, the division
of lands was made, which is on file and recorded in the town clerk’s office,
and which prevails at the present day. At an adjourned meeting, held on
the 26th day of the same month, it was voted “that two acres and one-half
of land whereon the court-house and goal are built in said Burlington, shall
be and is hereby set off for the use of the publick for the erecting of all neces-
sary county and town buildings for publick use.”

The land thus set off corresponds with the present City Hall Park. The
cut on next page illustrates it as it wasin 1817, it was sketched by Hon. J. N.
Pomeroy from his office window. The old pine tree, and near it the public hay
scales, is doubtless remembered by the older citizens. The old tree was
about eighty feet in height, and served as a whipping-post when that institu-
tion was required under the early laws. It was cut down in 1830. A com-
parison of the appearance of the square and its surroundings at that time,
with its present appearance, fully illustrates the marked growth and improve-
ment of the place.

The Free Press and Times of June 1, 1882, in an article on the death
of the late Sidney Barlow, gives so good a description of Burlington as it was
about the first quarter of the present century, that we take the liberty of quot-
ing it in full :—

‘“‘In the death of Sidney Barlow, the last of the old merchants who in a
former generation made Burlington the center of a wide and prosperous
business, passed away. A list of the men who were in active business when
he was, fifty years ago, would comprise such names as Horace and Luther
Loomis, Col. O. Buell, Harry Bradley, Timothy Follett, Moses and Guy
Catlin, John Peck, Samuel Hickok, E. T. Englesby, Philip Doolittle, and
others, known as builders and pillars of the prosperity and public institutions

of Burlington: One by one they have gone, most of them ripe in years,
possessed of ample means, and respected and honored by all who knew them
138 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

(COURT HOUSE SQUARE IN 1817.)

_and Mr. Barlow, the youngest of their number, has in his turn followec
them to his long home. Mr. Barlow, the son of David Barlow, was born 0
Fairfield, Vt., May 12, 1801. In 1817, he came to Burlington, a boy ¢
sixteen, to be a clerk in the store of E. H. Deming. In 1822, at the age ¢
twenty-one, he went into business for himself, in a small building near

head of Pearl street, on the north side of the street. The upper half of Pea
street was then one of the chief business centers of this region; and in th
stores (all of which have long since disappeared) of E. H. Deming, Luth

Loomis, Luther and George Moore, Vilas & Noyes, and Harry Bradley, on
Pearl street, between the streets now known as Willard and Prospect streets,
a large and widely extended business was transacted, and not a little money
made, in those days. After the death of Mr. Deming, in 1828, Mr. Barlow
bought the Deming store, at the head of Willard street, in which he had his
first business training, and succeeded to the business. In the year 1828, he
married and set up housekeeping, in the house on Willard street occupied
by him for the remainder of his long life. His business grew and thrived
under his enterprise and care, and at successive times he established branch
stores in Winooski, Westford, and Grand Isle. He was one of the organ-
izers and stockholders of the Burlington Woolen Mills, at Winooski, and was
the agent of the company when it built the large factory and the dam, and
for several years after, and he remained one of the larger owners of the prop-
erty tillit was purchased by the Hardings, shortly before the late war. Mr.
Barlow’s capacity for work, in his prime, may be inferred from the fact that
he at the same time conducted the business of the Woolen Mills, as its agent,
and carried on three stores, doing a general mercantile trade in as many
towns. Mr. Barlow remained in business, at Winooski, till April 1, 1850,
when he retired. He was for a number of years one of the directors of the
old Bank of Burlington. He was one of the founders of the Merchants’
Bank, and a large stockholder in it. In his day he held various minor town
offices, and did his share of public and political work in the community. He
was a constant attendant at the Unitarian Church, from his first residence in
Burlington, and one of the liberal supporters of the Church and Society. He
was thrice married—to Miss Harriet Reed, to Miss Caroline White, and to
Miss Mary Pope, who survives him. He leaves six children— Frances, Ellen
(Mrs. Geo. K. Platt), and Harriet (Mrs. Cushing, of California), by his first
marriage ; and Edward, Horace, and Mary (Mrs. Johnson), by the last.

“Mr. Barlow suffered from the usual infirmities of declining years, to which
was added, in latter years, a disease (cataract) of the eyes, for which he under-
went an operation three years ago ; but he was about his house and often
out on the streets, till two weeks before his death, when his powers of body
and mind began to fail and gradually sank, till he passed quietly away. He
was a man of simple tastes, strong will, and thorough honesty. His word
was as good as his bond. He wasa good neighbor and a worthy citizen, and
possessed the trust and respect of all who knew him.”

Of that portion of Burlington situated near the falls, as it was in 1822,
Miss C. E. Collins, whose mother is one of the oldest residents of the town,
says: ‘My mother, Mrs. Louisa E. Collins, became a resident of Burling-
ton in 1822, she being then sixteen years of age. Less than two years after-
wards she was married to Alphonso Collins, of Burlington, and has since
resided here, near Winooski falls. During that time she has seen many
changes, especially in this portion of the city andin Winooski village. Some
of the old places, however, remain essentially as they were at that time. The
house on Colchester avenue, now occupied by Mr. Murdock, and owned by
the Underwood family, then belonged to Moses Catlin, who, with his brother,
Guy Catlin, owned a large portion of the real estate in this vicinity. The
house was surrounded by extensive grounds and well-cultivated gardens, kept
in order by a gardener and assistant, making it a pleasant resort for the peo-
ple of Burlington and Colchester, who spent many pleasant hours wandering
140 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

over the graveled walks. The house situated on Colchester avenue just
below the cemetery, long known as the Edgcumb place, and now occupied by
members of that family, was then a tavern stand. The large house on the
same avenue, now owned and occupied by Mrs. Orville Sinclear and family,
was built in 1809, and, in 1822, was owned by Guy Catlin, who lived there
some years afterwards, and finally sold the property to Alfred Day, a promi-
ment business man here at that time. Nearly opposite this property is a tene-
ment house, belonging to the Villas estate, which was then the only store in
the neighborhood, and kept by a Mr. Harmon. On the site of the old flour
mill, near the bridge, stood a grist and custom mill, owned by Mr. Catlin,
and leased by George Edgcumb, who did an extensive business there for
many years. On the road now called Chase street, were two or more houses,
now standing, of which one, at present owned by Joseph Harrington, was a
pleasant, well-kept place, for many years the residence of Lansing Barnard’s
family, who latterly built the house situated near the Chase residence, owned
by Miss A. Edgcumb. The house nearly opposite Mrs. Harrington’s, the
property of S. Watson, occupies the site of a very old place, which was used
as a tavern in 1805, kept by Stephen Lawrence, son of one of the first settlers
of the town, and uncle to my father. My father came to this part of Bur
lington to reside, from the State of New York, in 1818. There were then
large forges and iron works established at the falls, employing a number of
men, while an extensive lumber trade was carried on, as Jarge forests of pine
and other timber were growing in the vicinity.”

Samuel Hickok was born in Sheffield, Berkshire Co., Mass., Sept: 4, 1774,
and died at Burlington, June 4, 1849, in the seventy-fifth year of his age. He
came to Burlington at as early a period in its history as A. D. 1792, whenhe
was eighteen years of age, accompanying thither his elder brother, William,
from Lansingburgh, N. Y., to which place the family had removed, and where
his father and grandfather now lie buried. The site of Burlington was then
a forest, its two or three buildings standing on the lake shore. No wharf ex-
isted, and goods brought in sloops from Whitehall, were landed in scows, or,
if casks of liquor or molasses, were thrown overboard and floated ashore.

William Hickok opened a store in a small wooden structure which stood on
the bank, a little north of the present stone store of Van Sicklen, Seymour &
Co., and Samuel acted as his clerk. A sad event which transpired on its
beautiful bay, on the 26th of December, 1797, greatly shocked the infant
community of Burlington: William Hickok, Benjamin T. Pierce, a promis-
ing young lawyer, and other young men, were out upon the bay skating.
Hickok was skating rapidly, closely followed by Pierce, when they both fell
through the ice in quick succession, and perished together. When the bodies
were found, Pierce was clinging to the feet of Hickok. It was supposed that
Hickok, being a very athletic and powerful young man, and a skillful swimmer,

would have saved himself but for this entanglement. Samuel succeeded to
the business of his brother.
 

TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. I4I

At that day, lumbering to Quebec, the purchase of wheat grown onnew land,
and the gathering of pot and pearl ashes,were the three leading branches of busi-
ness. As Customers came in from the east, the tendency of dealers was up town
to meet them, so Mr. Hickok erected his second store on Main street, upon the
site of the present residence of Daniel Roberts, Esq., and built the large square
dwelling house, yet standing, on the corner of Main and Pine streets, above
his store, where his three eldest children were born. In 1805, he built and
occupied the three-story brick store on the west side of the Court House
Square (now City Hall Park), next south of the present express office, and
which is believed to be the oldest building of brick in Burlington. At this
period he fixed his permanent residence in the large white house standing at
the southwest corner of the square, now called the Quincy House. It then had
a large garden attached, extending northerly to the store, was one of the
ornaments of the town, and the seat of a liberal hospitality during his life.
Henry Clay was entertained there when he visited Vermont, in 1838, and was
received by Vermonters with an enthusiasm which should have foreboded his
nomination and election to the Presidency, instead of Harrison’s.

Samuel Hickok was a stoutly built man about five feet eight inches in height,
with ahigh, broad forehead and a large and piercing blue eye, which could read,,
with great accuracy, the purposes of people with whom he had to do; indeed,
until he thought he could do this, he would rarely make a move of impor-
tance. He was energetic and prompt in action, of sound judgment and great
decision of character, so much so that to casual observers he seemed stern and
severe, but under this outer crust he carried a warm and kindly heart. His
leading characteristic, however, was integrity and love of justice. These
traits attached his customers to him, and it was a common saying among his
rivals in trade, that if any dealer about the county was about to fail and run
away, he would be sure to come to Burlington the night before and settle with
“Uncle Sam.” In the exercise of these sterling qualities he was for many
years the leading merchant in Burlington, and accumulated an estate of over
$200,000, which is believed to be the largest ever accumulated by any indi-
vidual in Chittenden County prior to 1849, the year of his decease.

The Vermont State Bank was chartered in 1806, and a branch established
at Burlington. Samuel Hickok was its cashier, and transacted its business
in his brick store referred to, until its removal from Burlington to Woodstock,
in 1812. He was one of the original corporators, and a director of the old
Bank of Burlington, chartered in 1818, until the establishment of a branch of
the United States Bank here in 1830, when he left the Bank of Burlington,
to become one of z¢s directors.

He was a firm and liberal supporter, and for many years a deacon of “ the
ist Church of Christ in Burlington, under the Congregational order,” organized
in 1805, under that title, in the house in which he so long lived, on the south-
west corner of the square. He presented that churcha fine organ, which was
‘burned with the original church in 18 36, and was also the largest contributor
142 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

towards the erection of the present edifice, now called the Winooski Avenue
Church. Every worthy object had his countenance and support. The Uni-
versity of Vermont found him ever a firm friend and liberal contributor to its
funds. When its first building was erected, when after the fire it was rebuilt,
and, indeed, at every stage of its early progress, his name stood prominent on
all the old subscription papers, which served to keep alive the institution until
the coming of its now more prosperous days.

Samuel Hickok was one of Nature’s noblemen. Though living after the
stirring times of the Revolution and the New York controversy, he mingled
with the actors in those scenes and with them pursued in generous rivalry
the arts of peace. The Chittendens and Allens were his neighbors and
friends, and he was worthy of their companionship.. A fine portrait of the
old gentleman, by that eminent American painter, Huntington, is now to be
seen at the residence of his son, J. W. Hickok, Esq.

Three sons survive him in Burlington. Wm. C. Hickok, M. D., who prac-
ticed medicine successfully in New York City for twenty-five years, but has
resided for many years in the south ward of Burlington, devoting himself
to agriculture, astronomy, and conchology. The revolving dome on the top
of his fine stone house covers the most powerful telescope in the State, and
he also possesses a very valuable and extensive collection of shells.

Henry P. Hickok, the second son, has been for more than thirty years,
and is still (1882) the president of the Merchants’ National Bank, and also
of the Farmers’ & Mechanics’ Savings Institution and Trust Company. He
has been for many years prominent as a corporator and secretary of the
University of Vermont, and is now one of the trustees of the Mary Fletcher
Hospital. In the erection of the Pioneer Mechanics’ Shop, in 1852, he took
the lead in introducing manufacturing industry into Burlington. He also
took the lead in building that fine stone edifice, the College Street Church,
and together with his sister, Eliza W. Buell, contributed three-fourth of the
needed funds.

James W. Hickok, the only other surviving son, was educated to the law,
and practised it a few years, but was diverted from it by business affairs. He
was for two and one-half years treasurer of the University of Vermont, and
five years a director of the old Bank of Burlington ; was one of the founders
of the Burlington Savings Bank, and served it as treasurer for the first five
years of its existence without salary. He was for fifteen years (1868 to
1875) treasurer and principal contributor to the support of what is now
the Winooski Avenue Congregational Church. He passed four years in New
York (1854 to 1858), associated with the late Wm. B. Ogden and Charles
Butler, Esq., in laying the foundation of what is now the Chicago North-
western Railroad Company, and has been for the last ten years one of the
directors and managers of the Rutland Railroad Company, in its successful
efforts to relieve itself of a heavy floating debt and get on toa dividend-pay-
ing basis.
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 143

 

In town affairs, he was, in 1852, the chairman of the committee that
planned and erected the City Hall, against a strenuous Opposition, which main-
tained that the building was too large and extravagant. He opposed and de-
feated the adoption of the first city charter, in 1853,.mainly on the ground
of its unwise division of the town, and also opposed the present charter for
the same reason, although he considers the division is less objectionable. He
was prominent in the minority which opposed the vote of $160,000.00 of
the city bonds to the Burlington & Lamoille Railroad Co., as he believed
the city would thereby lose that large sum and receive no benefit.

Samuel Hickok had four daughters: rst, Eliza Whelpley, born in 18or,
married Frederick Buell, and resided on Pearl street until her death, in 1874.
She was a benevolent woman, giving to a great variety of charitable objects
in a quiet way, and aiding many young men, by advances of money, to obtain
an education. It was she, who, with her brother Henry, gave so liberally
for the erection of the College Street church. A daughter, Maria, survives
her, occupying the homestead, the wife of Prof. Edward Hungerford.

2d, Jane Ann, the wife of Henry Leavenworth, Esq., died in 1836, aged
twenty-seven years.

3d, Mary Hickok, the wife of the Rev. James T. Dickenson, who died at
Norwich Conn., in 1834.

4th, Frances, who died unmarried, in 1845, aged twenty-eight years. She
was a person of rare intellectual gifts, and strongly marked benevolent and
Christian character. Through her liberality and energetic efforts the “ Ragged”
or “Charity School,” both of which names were applied to it, was established
and maintained, first in the old Pattee Building on White street, and after
wards on Battery street. This was the first distinctively Christian effort to
improve the moral condition of the poor and outcast children of the town,
and was rendered necessary by the then bad condition of the public schools.
She raised, by subscription, the money to pay the teacher, and other expenses
of the school. After her death this charity school was continued some twenty
years in all. Among its teachers the names of Miss Blatchley, Miss Cody and
Miss Adams are wellremembered. The board of the teachers, during the whole
period, was given by her brother, Henry P. Hickok, Esq. As the town grew,
the need of better provision for its destitute and homeless children, and for
those of the State as well, became manifest, and, in 1865, through the perse-
vering efforts of Miss Lucia T. Wheeler, ‘‘ The Home” was opened and estab-
lished, and has since developed into one of the most important and best
endowed charities of the State. In this work, Miss Wheeler found in Mrs.
Laura A. Hickok, wife of Dr. William C. Hickok, a most efficient coadjutor.
The complete success of this institution has been largely attributable to the
zeal and fidelity with which all its interests have been watched over by Mrs.
Hickok, who has been for thirteen years past, and still is, its president.

John Howard, the patriarch of the Burlington family of Howards, was born
at Providence, Rhode Island, in 1770. He came of an honorable line, as he
144 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

could trace his ancestry directly back to the celebrated Roger Williams, famous
as one of the founders of Rhode Island, in 1637. His father was lost at sea
while John was quite young, and he himself, in his youth, made several sea
voyages. He afterwards resided a few years at Pittstown, N. Y., and then
six or more years at Addison, Vt. as a farmer. In 1812, he came to Bur-
lington and established the Howard Hotel, located on the north side of
the (then called) Court House Square, which he kept for the next thirty-five
years of his life.

He was on board the steamboat “ Phcenix” when it was burned on Lake
Champlain, on the night of September 5, 1819, and there distinguished him-
self by his energetic efforts in arousing the passengers and aiding to save
their lives, and in preserving property entrusted to his care. He himself was
saved by the aid of a plank, after having been in the water several hours.
The books of the old Bank of Burlington contain the following record with
reference to the affair:—

“ At a meeting of the directors of the Bank of Burlington, September 16,
1819, C. P. Van Ness, the president, William White, Ozias Buell, Luther
Loomis, and Samuel Hickok, being present, it was

“ Resolved, That the cashier do, and is hereby authorized and required, to
present to Mr. John Howard the sum of one hundred dollars, for, and on
behalf of the president, directors, and company of this institution, as a testi- :
mony of the obligation they feel themselves under, for his unyielding exertions
at the time and after the conflagration of the late steamboat “ Phoenix,” in
preserving that portion of their property, $8,500, committed to his care, from
destruction and loss, under all its various circumstances of exposure.”

Under his care the Howard Hotel acquired an enviable reputation, and be-
came extremely popular with travelers. Possessed of a stalwart, upnght
character, he was the terror of thieves and impostors of every description.
Few of them escaped, who came within the scope of his shrewd observation
and keen sagacity ; indeed, to such an extent was he interested in the public
welfare, that he was often up all night looking after suspicious persons who
had attracted his attention, and if any rascal was caught, as many were, it was
sure to be through his instrumentality. He was also, possibly on account of
his rough experience on the ill-fated “‘ Phoenix,” noted for his great vigilance
in guarding against fire on his own premises or in his vicinity, and for his
advocacy of every measure for the common protection against this dire foe.
His enterprise and public spirit, as shown in these and other respects, was
remarkable, and he at the same time possessed a most kindly heart. No man
was more prompt, or would go farther to do a kindly act to a neighbor, or to
any person in distress, than “ Uncle John,” as he was familiarly and atfection-
ately called by the many who knew his good qualities. One incident, related
by a person who was long acquainted with Mr. Howard, fully illustrates the
kindly phase of his character: One morning, in the winter of 1833, oF
thereabouts, when an ice bridge covered the lake, a party of young people
drove across it to Essex, N. Y., to dine there and return in the evening, At
 
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 145

that time, Burlington was not so large but that such an excursion would
attract some attention. In the afternoon, a furious snow-storm came on,
and “Uncle John,” fearing that the party would be lost in it on their return,
started out upon the lake, in the blinding storm, with his team, taking a com-
pass to guide him, resolved to find the party, and pilot them safely home—
which he did. Few men, over sixty years of age, would volunteer such an
arduous service on behalf of persons in whom they were not especially inter-
ested.

It may with truth be said of him, that he was one of the best, most useful
and public spirited citizens that Burlington ever had. He retired from
business about seven years before his death, which occurred February 24,
1854, at the ripe age of eighty-four years. The vee Press, in noticing his
death, said :—

“During a long residence in Burlington, Mr. Howard was found ever ready,
by his counsel, advice, and purse, to contribute to its prosperity, as well as
to the happiness of all around him; and his demise, even at his advanced
age, leaves a gloom upon many who were familiarly and intimately acquainted
with him.”

His wife, Hannah Earl, born at Dartmouth, Mass., came of a sturdy and
vigorous New England stock, and was the fourth in lineal descent from Philip
Sherman, who settled in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, in 1637. A grant of 200
acres of land to him in that township bears date December 10, 1639. She
was a very estimable lady, and lived to the age of ninety-three years, retaining,
to a remarkable degree, her faculties, both of mind and body. She died in
1865, bearing to her grave the love and esteem of all who knewher. An
aunt of hers, the mother of the late Benjamin Sherman, of Peru, N. Y.,
attained the great age of 104 years.

Mr. Howard left two daughters. The youngest, Catharine, is the wife of
Mr. Amos C. Spear, and mother of Mrs. Julia Howard Spear. The eldest,
Miss Hannah Louisa, has recently become well-known by her liberality in
giving $5,000 to the Home for Destitute Children, to pay off debts which
were pressing upon that institution, and for the erection, very recently, of a
beautiful gothic chapel, of stone, in Lake View Cemetery, for public use.

He had four sons, the eldest of whom, Sion Earl, was long known in Bur-
lington as a merchant, and who accumulated a handsome fortune, and died in
1866. The third son, Sidney Smith, died June 30, 1839, aged thirty-three
years. The other two sons, Daniel Dyer and John Purple, in early life went
to New York city to seek their fortune, depending on their brains and hands
alone. After various smaller undertakings, they had the foresight and bold-
ness to lease for a term of twenty years, a block of buildings on the west side
of Broadway, a little above the City Hall Park, and to transform it into an
extensive hotel, fitted up and furnished with an elegance extraordinary for
that time. This was the first up-town hotel of the first-rate, and in this respect
these brothers were enterprising pioneers, and by their liberal management,

careful and courteous attention to every want of their guests, made the Irving
Hotel for many years the most popular in New York, and they retired there-
from with over half a million dollars.

The character of the brothers differed widely,—Daniel D. contributed
to the foundation of this fortune by his enterprising spirit, which doubtless
led to the establishment of the “Irving House,” and by his genial nature,
which made him a great favorite with all who frequented the hotel. John
Purple was more conservative, inheriting, with his father’s strong good sense,
his keen insight into impostures and shams of whatever sort. He never could
be entrapped into visionary and worthless speculation, and was, for these
reasons, a safe and successful financier, and to him was wisely entrusted, by
his brother Daniel, the management of their joint fortune. It is said of him
that he never made a mistake in investing money, and for about thirty years
this fortune has been rolling up under his wise care until it is now counted by
millions.

Daniel D. died at Geneva, Switzerland, in 1871, aged seventy years, leav-
ing a daughter, Fanny, the wife of Dr. Theodore Evans, of Paris.

John Purple Howard never married, nor had he in youth a college education ;
but this deficiency his quick intelligence has fully remedied, by his long resi-
dence in New York, his intercourse with cultivated people, and his extensive
travel in all parts of the world. He visits Burlington frequently, and cher-
ishes an affectionate interest in the town where he was born, June 3, 1814,
and where he passed his early years. This interest is proven by the great
liberality with which he has disbursed, and is still disbursing, his fortune here.
Passing over many smaller gifts to Burlington, such as ornamental fountains
in its parks, improvements in Lake View Cemetery, and liberal subscriptions
to its charitable and public enterprises, it is worthy of note that he erected the
beautiful gothic chapel attached to the Episcopal church, at a cost of over
$10,000; that, in 1881, he gave to the Home for Destitute Children the
splendid Opera House Block, erected at a cost of over $100,000; and that he
is now engaged in the patriotic work of erecting a statue of Gen. LaFayette,
by that eminent artist, J. Q. A. Ward, upon the grounds of the University,
whose corner stone was laid by LaFayette, in 1825, which will cost about
$30,000, and confer upon his native town the honor of having the only statue
in this country erected to the memory of the noble Frenchman ; that he gave
his check for $50,000.00 to the University, in 1881, to found a professorship,
and for other purposes ; and that he is now rebuilding and enlarging the
University buildings, at a cost of about $50,000.00 more. By such benefac-
tions, he has entitled himself to the esteem and gratitude of the city and
State, and has earned for his name an honorable immortality by associating
it indissolubly with the history and prosperity of the University of Vermont,
whose foundations were laid with the organization of the State, by the
Allens, the Chittendens, and their compatriots, upon the fundamental truth
that education and intelligence go hand and hand with liberty and good

government; and until this truth is forgotten, the University will ever stand
as the crowning glory of the city and of Vermont.

John N. Pomeroy, who died in July, 1881, was, at the time of his death, the
oldest native resident of Burlington, having lived here since his birth,'Septem-
ber 29, 1792. He was born in a log house on the north side of Pearl street,
just below the sight of the present residence of Mr. Henry Loomis. He
was the son of Dr. John Pomeroy, an early settler of Burlington, and a phy-
sician of wide practice and repute. Dr. Pomeroy built and for many years
occupied the large brick house on Battery street, between Main and King
streets, now owned by the estate of Patrick Cavanagh, and there the late
Mr. Pomeroy spent the greater part of his childhood.

He entered the University of Vermont as a student, in August, 1805, when
not quite thirteen years of age, and graduated there in 1809, delivering both
an oration and a poem at commencement, and ever after, during his long life,
was an active friend of that institution, and frequently aided it by liberal
donations. He studied law in Burlington from 1810 to 1816, with occasional
interruptions, beginning with Judge Farrand and closing with Charles Adams,
Esq. In 1816, he was admitted to the Chittenden County bar, practiced law
till the death of his father, in 1844, when, having thereby inherited an ample
fortune, he retired from practice. His professional labors were mainly those
of a collecting lawyer, in which he was active and successful, but among other
important disputable cases, he was prominent in defeating the claims of cer-
tain private individuals who had taken possession of portions of the City Hall
Park, under leases from the town of Burlington, and he thus vindicated the
sole right of the public to keep and use the same for the erection of public
buildings and for a public park.

Until about 1857, Mr. Pomeroy took an active part in the municipal affairs
of Burlington, always attending town meetings and participating in the debates,
and exercising a large influence about public matters. He was at various
times selectman, town treasurer, overseer of the poor, State’s attorney, and
justice of the peace for many years, and faithfullly discharged the duties of
all public trusts conferred upon him ; exercising a sound and discriminating
economy, with no illiberality, however, in regard to reasonable public improve-
ments, and rigidly accounting for everything which came into his hands, and
stoutly demanding similar action on the part of others in like positions.

He was the member from Burlington of the Constitutional Convention of
1836, which abolished the old council and established the senate, and was a
prominent leader in all the actions of that body.

Elected to the council of censors, in 1848, he became secretary of the council.
He there advocated, with great power and spirit, a reformin the system of
representation in the house of representatives, to correct the injustice which
gives to the eleven thousand citizens of Burlington no more voice or vote in
the lower House than to the one hundred inhabitants of St. George. He
lived to see the principle he thus advocated adopted by every State in the
Union except Vermont.
148 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON,

 

In 1850, Mr. Pomeroy was appointed by the President one of the board of
examiners at West Point, and attended and acted in that capacity. In the
same year he was appointed, by Gov. Williams, chairman of a committee of
which Lieut.-Gov. Ranney and Hon. T. P. Redfield were the other
members, to examine and report upon the finances of the State under
a resolution of the legislature. He drew up the report of this committee, in
which, as was his custom, he expressed to the legislature in earnest and vig-
orous language his views, which in many respects were by no means flattering
to that body. Indeed, to the very last of his long life, he was deeply inter-
ested in the political affairs of the nation, preserving, to a remarkable degree,
his intellectual activity on these subjects.

He was one of the original members of the Unitarian church in Burling-
ton, formed in 1816, andcontinued such tohis death. That society is greatly
indebted to him, not only for wise counsel for more than sixty years, but also
for many generous gifts, and he gave to that church, and the cause of religion
generally, the testimony of unfailing and attentive attendance upon public
worship. He was brought up to “go to meeting,” as they used to call it, and it
grew to be a matter of pleasure as well as principle with him to do so.

In March, 1819, he was married to Lucia Loomis, daughter of Horace
Loomis, with whom he led a long and happy married life, till her death, in De-
cember, 1877. They had no children of their own, but have left an adopted
daughter, Mrs. Lewis Wheeler, of this city.

John Johnson was among the earliest and best known citizens of Burling-
ton. He was a great-grandson of Capt. Timothy Johnson, one of the largest
land-owners of Andover, Mass., who, in 1677, commanded the mounted corps
organized to drive the Indians from that vicinity. Benjamin Johnson, the
father of John, moved to Canterbury, N. H., where John was born, December
2, 1771. In 1790, following the example of other young men of that day,
young Johnson determined to seek new fields of enterprise, and, coming to
Northern Vermont, he finally located at Burlington, and entered upon the
business of aland surveyor. This pursuit was at that time particularly arduous.
The country was wild, hilly, unsettled and covered with dense forests, in which
the snow lay in great depths late in the season, and the surveying was prosecuted
often during the winter months. Mr Johnson laid out most of the town-
ships of the northern part of the State, and the accuracy of the records pre-
pared by him, have proved of great value in determining lines and boundaries,
and adjusting disputed titles.

He was appointed, in 1812, surveyor-general of Vermont, and was select-
ed by the commissioners, under the treaty of Ghent, to take charge, on the
part of the United States, of the surveys of our northern boundary. At the
conclusion of the last war with England, he was appointed a government com-
missioner to examine and adjust claims of citizens for transportation, forage,
etc., furnished to the United States army on our northern frontier.

Besides his acknowledged skill as a land surveyor, his aptness for mathe-
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON. 149

matical and mechanical studies led him to give attention to civil and mechan-
ical engineering, and although his conclusions were the result of his own
unaided studies and investigations, his manuscripts upon building, bridge con-
struction, hydraulics, etc., evince great care, intelligent study, careful observa-
tion, judgment, and engineering skill. He furrtished, or revised, the plans
for nearly all the mechanical structures of any magnitude in Northern Ver-
mont during this period, and his superior skill in the planning and erection
of flouring and saw-mills and bridges, gave him a wide and favorable reputa-
tion not confined to his own State. :

Mr. Johnson was ever ready to extend his counsel and assistance to young
men who were qualifying themselves for mechanical pursuits, and it was his
endeavor to impress upon them the great benefits of study and thorough
observation to qualify them for success in their chosen profession.

In his death, which occurred April 30, 1842, at the age of seventy-one years,
Vermont lost a man widely known and highly esteemed, and Burlington a
citizen who will long be remembered, both for his professional skill and many
virtues. Of Mr. Johnson’s family representatives, were his eldest son, Hon.
Edwin F. Johnson, an eminent civil engineer, and author of many valuable scien-
tific papers, the pioneer of the Northern Pacific Railroad route, and subsequently
the engineer-in-chief of that road, and at the time of his death, in 1872, its
consulting engineer. His third son, Anson S. Johnson, still living, a leading
and successful farmer in South Burlington, and his son-in-law, Joseph D.
Allen, whose reputation as a civil engineer was among the first of his profes-
sion, and who, at the time of his death, in 1878, had been a resident of Bur-
lington for thirty-six years.

Henry Baldwin Stacy, long known as one of Vermont's successful journal-
ists, was born in Orange, Vt., August 23, 1804, the youngest, save one, of a
family of twelve children. His father was a farmer of limited means, and his
early training was in a school where the practice of industry and economy
was not theoretical, but a matter of stern necessity; and this training, where
the labor of the head and the hands must necessarily unite to obtain food
and clothing for the body, as well as development and growth to the mind,
was his capital with which to start life.

At the age of fourteen he left the farm and went to Bennington to learn
the printer's trade in the office of the Vermont Gazette. He had previously
only a common school education, but was a ready scholar, possessing a
quick, penetrating mind, rare powers of investigation, and had within him
the germ of self-culture, which developed itself more and more through his
life. He subsequently worked at his trade in Middlebury and Montreal, and
eame to Burlington, July 27, 1827, to be a journeyman for Luman Foote,
who had just started the Burlington Free Press in the interest of the
“National Republican Party,” and in support of the administration of John
Quincy Adams. He took sole charge of the mechanical work until January
28, 1828, when he became associated with Mr. Foote as editor and publisher.
150 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

In 1832, Mr. Stacy purchased and took entire control of the establishment,
the first issue of the paper in his name alone being on the 2oth of July, and
he shortly after erected the present Free Press building, the upper stories
being occupied as his residence. He conducted the paper until 1846, when
he sold the establishment to D. W. C. Clarke, devoting himself afterwards to
agricultural pursuits. He was an earnest politician of the old Whig party,
and afterwards an equally earnest Republican. Being a strong and ready
writer, the /ree Press, under his control, was always influential and respected.

He represented the town in the legislature during the years 1843, ’44, ‘51,
and ’s6, the last time with special reference to the rebuilding of the State
House. He was an influential legislator, having a strong working influence
without the House, as well as legislative influence within. His speaking was
nervous and often eloquent, his sentences being usually short, animating, and
full of life. He was also a selectman of Burlington six years, from 1847 to
1852, and as such was always a friend of improvement and a careful guardian
of the interests of the town. In 1861, he accepted an appointment as United
States consul at Revel, Russia. As a consul, his reports showed him to be
an observant student of affairs, and a patriotic and faithful public servant.
He remained abroad until November, 1868, when he returned to visit his
family and home. Meanwhile, under the new administration, another consul
having been appointed to Revel, Mr. Stacy returned to close up the affairs
of his consulate as well as his own private affairs, sailing from New York
direct to Hamburg, May 4, 1869, intending to return home in August. He
arrived in Revel May 27th, and was suffering from the effects of a cold con-
tracted while crossing the Baltic Sea, which resulted in an inflammation of
the lungs, from which he died after an illness of nine days, on June 18, 1869.

Cornelius Peter Van Ness, the third son of Peter Van Ness, was born at
Kinderhook, N. Y., January 26, 1782, and immigrated to Vermont in 1806,
locating at St. Albans, and subsequently, in 1809, removed to Burlington,
where, with occasional intermissions, while engaged in public affairs, he con-
tinued the practice of his profession, the law, for twenty years. The same
year of his removal to Burlington, he was appointed by President Madison to
‘he office of U. S. district atturney for the district of Vermont. He subse-
quently held the offices of collector for the port of Burlington, and commis-
sioner to settle the national boundaries after the treaty of Ghent. In 1818,
he was elected representative to the general assembly, and re-elected during
the three following years.

During the last year of his legislative term, in 1821, his office of commis-
sioner having ceased by the disagreement of the British and American com-
missioners, he was appointed chief justice of the State, which office he held
until two years later, when he withdrew from it to be placed in the executive
chair of the State. He held the office of governor three years, having been
twice re-elected without opposition, and declining further service in 1826. All
of these offices he filled with distinguished ability and eminent success.

On the accession of General Jackson to the Presidential chair, in 1829, Mr.
VanNess received the distinguished appointment of minister to Spain, a post
which he continued for ten years, and the duties of which he fulfilled with his
accustomed ability and success. He returned to Burlington in 1840, and in
1841, took up his residence in New York city. He died at the Girard House,
in Philadelphia, while on a journey from New York to Washington, Decem-
ber 15, 1852.

Nathan B. Haswell, a son of Anthony Haswell who was well known as one
of the first journalists and printers in Vermont, at Bennington, was born at
that place January 20,1786. He entered the law office of Jonathan Robin-
son, in 1800, and continued his studies until 1804, when he came to Bur-
lington to attend the University. Soon after, while contemplating a thorough
collegiate course, news came of the destruction of his father’s house and
printing office, by fire, causing young Haswell to leave the University and
engage in active business at once. In 1805, he received from Jabez Penni-
man, collector of customs, the office of inspector at Burlington, which office
he held, honorably discharging its duties during the embargo, until 1809, when
he resigned.

In 1812 and 1813, Mr. Haswell was the issuing commissary for distributing
army rations. He was also a portion of the time the public store keeper,
and also superintended an inventory of the public property in Burlington.
He was appointed orderly sergeant in the corps of exempts formed at Bur-
lington during the war of 1812. When the British, under Col. Murray, made
an incursion into this section, and from their galleys fired several shots into
the town, he was active in assisting Capt. Chappell to meet the enemy. In
1814, he forwarded troops, provisions, etc., to the army at Plattsburgh. From
1818 to 1836, he held the offices of clerk of the county and supreme court,
notary public, master in chancery, etc. In 1836 and ’37, he represented the
town in the legislature, and during the same year was appointed U. S. agent
to build the breakwater and to superintend the cleaning of the channel
between the island of North and South Hero. He was also a Mason of high
degree. During the last few years of Mr. Haswell’s life, his constitution
became enfeebled by frequent and severe attacks of illness. A last and fatal
one occurred during an absence to the West on business. He died at Quincy,
Ill, June 6, 1855.

Timothy Follett, who did so much for the Rutland Branch of the C. V. R.
R., and who was its first president, was born at Bennington, January 5, 1793.
At the age of ten years, by the death of his father, he was left with two sisters
to the care of a widowed mother with but slender means, who, to educate her
children, removed to Burlington. In 1806, he entered the University, and
was admitted to a baccalaureate degree, August 1, 1810, and immediately
afterward entered the law office of his brother-in-law, Hon. William A. Gris-
wold, of Danville, where he remained until June, 1812, when he entered up-
on a course of law lectures at the school of Judges Reeves and Gould, at

Litchfield, Conn., and was admitted to the bar of Chittenden County in Feb-
ruary, 1814. Ardently devoted to the profession he had chosen, he pursued
it diligently, securing a success quite equal to his expectation, and a reputa-
tion satisfactory to his friends. In December, 1819, he was appointed, by
Judges Doolittle and Brayton, of the supreme court, to the office of State’s
attorney, then vacant by the death of Sanford Gadcomb, Esq., and elected to
the same office by the legislatures of 1820,’21 and’22. In 1823, he was elected
judge of the county court, and his professional life continued until a pulmonary
complaint threatening him, he abandoned the practice of the law to engage
in merchantile pursuits, where he was quite successful. In 1830, he was
elected to represent the town in the legislature, and again in 1831 and 1832.
He died October 12, 1857.

Zadock Thompson was the second son of Capt. Barnabas Thompson, of
Bridgewater, Vt., where he was born, May 23, 1796. His father was a farmer
of limited means, and as young Thompson showed an ability for study, the
Rey. Walter Chapin, of Woodstock, took notice of his studious nature,
received him into his own family, and assisted him in procuring an education.
In 181g, he entered the University of Vermont, and was graduated with honor
in 1823, at the age of twenty-seven years. The following year, September 4th,
he was married to Phoebe Boyce. His career as an author commenced in
1819. In 1824, he published his Gazetteer of Vermont, a duodecimo of
312 pages. In 1825, he was chosen a tutorin the University of Vermont, and
during the same year published the Youth's Assistant in Theoretical and
Practical Arithmetic. In 1828, he edited a magazine entitled Zhe Jris and
Burlington Literary Gazette, and in 1832, The Green Mountain Repository,
both of which were published at Burlington. In 1838, he removed from
Burlington to Hatley, C. E., and there continued his literary labors until
1837, when he returned to this town. In the meantime, having been pursu-
ing theological studies, he was admitted to the pastorate of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, May 27, 1835. After his return to Burlington he engaged
in teaching in the Vermont Episcopal Institute, and in preparing his ational,
Ciwil, and Statistical History of Vermont, which was published in 1843. In
1845, and for the three succeeding years, he was assistant State geologist. In
1851, he was appointed to the professorship of chemistry and natural history
in the University of Vermont. In 1853, he published an appendix to his
history of Vermont, containing the results of his later investigations, and
during the same year, was appointed State naturalist, continuing in that office
until his death, which was occasioned by ossification of the heart, January
19, 1856.

George T. Edmonds, born in Richmond, Vt., February 1, 1828, came to
Burlington to reside in 1851. He received a common school education and
enjoyed the instruction of a private tutor, but never graduated from college.
Turning his attention to the study of law, he was admitted to the barin 1849,
and for a long time devoted himself exclusively to the legal profession. In

1854-55, andin 1857, 1858, and 1859, he was elected to the legislature,
serving three years asspeaker. In 1861 and ’62, he was elected to the State
senate, officiating as president pro fem. of that body during three years. On
the breaking out of the war he was chosen a member of the convention
which met to form a coalition between the Republicans and War Democrats;
and drew up the resolutions which were adopted in that convention as the
basis of union for the country. On the death of Solomon Foote he was ap-
pointed in his place in the United States senate, taking his seat in April,
1866, and the appointment was confirmed by the legislature. Since that time
he has been constantly in that body. His honorable and successful course
during these years is too well known to require special comment here. By
_Teason of his great sagacity in discovering frauds and jobbery concealed in
bills brought before congress, and which he has unhesitatingly denounced, he
has well earned the title of “The Watch Dog of the Senate-”

Phineas Loomis, from Sheffield, Mass., first came to Burlington in 1787.
He shortly after returned to Massachusetts, and brought his family here,
consisting of three sons and three daughters, in 1789. He first built a log
house about where Henry Loomis’s residence now stands, andin 1799, built
the old “Phineas Loomis house,” on Pearl street. He carried on the tanning
business in the old stone building just opposite Mr. H. Loomis’s, on Pearl
street, and continued the same until the early part of this century, when his
son Horace succeeded him, carrying on the business until 1832, when it was
taken by his cousin, Edward Loomis, now of Burlington. Phineas died in
181z, and Horace in 1865. Warren Loomis became a lawyer of marked
ability, a graduate of the University, and died here in 1828. Luther Loomis,
the last of the sons of Phineas, was for many years a merchant in Burlington,
his old store having stood about one hundred feet west of the Henry Loomis
house, and was torn down in 1868. He died in 1844, aged sixty-three years.
Luther had two sons, both of whom are now living, one in Chicago, and Mr,
Henry Loomis, a well-known citizen of Burlington.

Benjamin Taft came to Burlington about the year 1800, immigrating
thither from Providence, R. I., in the winter of that year, occupying six weeks
on the journey. There were then but few houses in the town, and no bridge
over the Winooski. Mr. Taft located upon the bank of this stream, building
his dwelling where Mrs. Joseph Harrington now resides. Here he engaged in
the foundry business, and also manufactured plows, agricultural implements,
edged tools, etc., using the first trip-hammer ever introduced into the county.
He reared a family of five children, and died early in the present century.
His widow subsequently became Mrs. Eldridge Washburn, and lived to the
advanced age of eighty-six years.

Eleazer H. Deming, born at Litchfield, Conn., in 1785, came to Burling-
ton about the year 1800, and here married Miss Fanny Follett, in 1808. He
early engaged in mercantile pursuits, locating where his daughter, Mrs.
Tucker, now resides, on Pearl street, and where he continued in business
154 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON,

 

until his death, in 1828, aged forty-three years. He was an active, energetic
business man, and influential in all the improvements of the town. He was
emphatically a self-made man, his mother having died at his birth, and his
father when he was a mere child. From that time forward, without means
or family influence, young Deming worked his way to affluence, winning the
highest esteem of his townsmen and friends. Of his eight children, one
daughter only, Mrs. Tucker, is now living.

John B. Hollenbeck, one of Burlington’s oldest citizens, and a veteran of
the war of 1812, was born at Richmond, Vt., February 11,1792. Removing
to Charlotte when fifteen years of age, he entered a store as clerk, and re-
mained there in that capacity and in business for himself until 1824, when he
came to Burlington, and has since resided here. Owing to an accident, in
December, 1878, by which his hip was broken, he has since been unable to
walk. Possessed of energy and integrity, Mr. Hollenbeck won a warm place
in the hearts of his townsmen, whom he served as justice of the peace fora
period of over forty years. He now resides on George street, enjoying good
bodily health, except the lameness mentioned, at the advanced age of ninety
years.

Ebenezer Brown, or Major Brown, as he is more familiarly remembered, a
genial, whole-souled gentleman, was born at Old Stamford, Conn., September
11, 1770, and came to Burlington in 1792, with his wife, Parmelia Ferris,
whom he married in 1788. A carpenter and joiner by trade, he built most
of the early houses in Burlington, and when the old church at the head of
Church street was erected, subscribed $100.00 and worked it out. Subse-
quently he bought a farm and erected a hotel, becoming a popular landlord,
continuing the business until his death, January 19, 1839.

Frederick Smith, now seventy years of age, is one of the old residents of
the town, having come here from Williston, in 1827, to act as an accountant
in the office of the glass company, and subsequently became an owner. He
has always taken an active part in promoting the improvements of the town,
having been a prominent business man, though now retired. In 1866, he
married Miss Mary A. Foot, of St. Albans, and has had a family of eight
children,—four sons and four daughters,—of whom three daughters and one
son are now living, the latter, Charles, a merchant of Burlington.

John Van Sicklen, Sr., came to Burlington when there was but one house
where the city now is, owned by Gideon King. He reared a family of ten
children, seven daughters and three sons. Charlotte, the ninth and only liv-
ing child, was born April 12, 1805, married Amasa Isham in 1825, and now
resides in Shelburne.

Ira Shattuck, from Winsor, Vt., came to Burlington in 1836. He at first
engaged in hotel keeping, as proprietor of the American Hotel, and followed
that business with fair success for six years, when he, with others, established
a line of stages from Montreal to Boston. The completion of the railroad,
however, ended this business, leaving him and his partner, Mahlon Cottrill,

with their entire outfit, including 200 horses, on theirhands. He then assisted
his son in the hardware business, without any direct interest in the concern
until the death of the son, about seven years since.

Captain William Anderson, one of the oldest steamboat captains on the
lake, was born at Cazenovia, N. Y., March 13, 1805. In 1831, he commenced
his life work as captain of the McDonough. In 1836, he removed to Bur-
lington, and has since resided there, only giving up the lake wiaen obliged to, on
account of rheumatism, in 1877. He is now, at the age of seventy-seven years,
enjoying excellent health except for that affliction. He was married in
1835, and has reared a family of ten children, four of whom, three daughters
and a son, are now living.

Dr. B. S. Nichols, one of the principal owners of the Pioneer Shops, occu-
pies the homestead of Timothy Follett, built by Mr. Follett in 1840, on the
corner of College and Champlain streets. Mr. Nichols was a practicing phy-
sician for nine years subsequent to 1845, when he engaged in the manufac-
ture of iron at Fair Haven and Middlebury, and is still interested in the
works at East Middlebury. In 1865, he came to Burlington and engaged,
with the Burlington Manufacturing Co., in the same business, and, in 1868,
commenced his present enterprise.

Edwin Hard, another old citizen of Burlington, was born at Salisbury, Vt.,
in 1796. In 1818, he married Miss Eleanor Butler, with whom he has lived
a happy married life of sixty-four years.

Nathan Smith, one of the early settlers of Burlington, was a veteran of the
Revolution. In 1785, he came up the lake in a canoe, and assisted in sur-
veying Moretown, Middlesex, and other towns, and in 1786, located in Bur-
lington, upon the farm now owned by D. Fisk, corner road 21 and 22. He was
a captain of militia, and kept one of the first hotels opened in the town. He
had a family of six children, two sons and four daughters. One of his sons,
Pierpont E., now resides on road 20, at the age of eighty-one years. He has
held many of the town trusts. John E., a grandson of Nathan, has been clerk
and treasurer of South Burlington ever since it was divided from the city.

Abijah Warner, a distant relative to Col Seth Warner of Revolutionary
fame, came to Burlington in 1808, from Fitzwilliam, N. H., locating on road
29, upon the farm now owned by A. S. Warner. There is now standing upon
the farm an apple tree pianted by him the year he settled here, and is conse-
quently seventy-three years of age.

Moses Farnsworth, from Dorset, Vt., came to Burlington in 1800, and
located upon the farm now owned by George Wheeler. He had a family of
five children, only one of whom now lives in the town.

James A. Thacher, residing on road 33, is a grandson of Amasa Thacher,
an early settler in Williston. His great-grandmother, the mother of Amasa,
was Polly VanSicklen, the second child of John VanSicklen, born at Castle-
ton, Vt., while the family were on their journey from Long Island to Bur-
lington, in 1788. They located upon the farm now owned by Edward Van-

Sicklen, and which has never since passed out of the possession of the Van-
Sicklen family.

Jason Comstock settled in Burlington at an early date, and his son, George
‘Comstock, was born in 1797, in a log house near the present site of J. A.
Thacher’s residence. His son, A. B. Comstock, now resides on a portion of
the old homestead, and has held many of the town offices.

Sarah H. Hathaway, the only woman in Chittenden County who shared the
fortunes of war during the late Rebellion, was born in1840. In 1861,she was
married to A. B. Fay, theri a volunteer in Co. G, 2d Regt., Vt. Vols., and soon
after left with him for the seat of war, and for two years shared her husband's
hardships and dangers, doing a noble work in the hospitals. She was present
at the first and second battles of Bull Run, and was in the midst of the shelling
at White Oak Swamps, was at Fair Oaks, Malvern Hill, and other battles.
During three months of the two years she saw the face of no white woman.

The Stuart family, of Burlington, are of Scotch descent, their ancestors
having come to America at an early day in its history. Of those who came
to the United States, one settled in Maine, and another located in the town
of Norwalk, Conn. The latter, Mr. Nathan Stuart, was the father of four
sons, one of whom was killed by lightning at the age of thirteen, while the
other three removed with their father to the town of Lanesboro, Mass., where
father and sons were proprietors of an extensive mercantile business, in con-
nection with a large farming interest. The youngest son, Thaddeus, married
in Lanesboro, where his only child, Eleazar, was born, March 15, 1786. In
1787, the entire family came to Hinesburgh, where Thaddeus opened the first
store in town, and was also extensively engaged in the cattle trade. About
the year 1798, while in the city of New York to buy goods, Mr. Stewart at-
tended a session of the Methodist conference, which was then being held
there, and for the first time in his life heard the gospel of a free and a full
salvation preached. As it appeared to him in accordance with the Bible
dictrine of salvation, he immediately presented to the conference the claims
of Vermont, and invited the preachers to visit the State.

In compliance with his request, two preachers, Michael and Samuel Coat,
came, residing at his house for a month, and arranged for preaching in various
places, thus sowing the first seeds of Methodism in the Green Mountain State.
Mr. Stuart was one of the six persons who formed the first Methodist class
in Vermont. He died in Hinesburgh, January 30, 1809.

After the decease of his father, Eleazer removed to Burlington, in March,
1816. He cleared the timber from a space of land large enough upon which
to set a house and barn, and commenced hfe in the woods, toiling to reclaim
and improve what is now know as the Stuart farm. As his father was the
instrument of introducing Methodism into Hinesburgh, so Eleazer Stuart
was the means of planting a Methodist church in Burlington. There was a
Methodist class formed at the house now owned by Mr. John S. Hefflon, in
1816. Mr. Stuart was chosen its leader, and he and his wife formed two of
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON, 157

 

its seven members. Eleazer died September 4, 1849, his wife surviving him
until May 28, 1868.

Rev. Thaddeus F. Stuart, son of Eleazer, was born November 6, 1818,
and learned the mysteries of a farm-boy’s life at an early age. His education
was obtained by his own exertions and self-denial, receiving no assistance
from his father. Studying theology, he was ordained in 1842, and entered
the itinerancy in 1844, laboring as a traveling preacher for eleven years.
Through great exertion in revival work, his health failed and he was obliged
to abandon the itinerancy and retire to the old farm, where he now resides.

Among the many fine residences and prospects of Burlington, none sur-
passes “Overlake,” the splendid mansion and grounds of Col. LeGrand B.
Cannon, situated on the southern part of College Hill. The house was erected
in 1857-59, and is one of the finest, and surrounded by as beautiful grounds,
as are to be found in the State. It is of the French chateau style of archi-
tecture, rarely seen in this country, built of brick, trimmed with New York
brown stone, three stories in height besides a basement. Several wings, and
many upright angles break the line of prospective view, and a high slate roof
with dormer windows, and a tower not greatly elevated above the main roof,
surmount the structure. But one’s eye rests upon this rare specimen of
architectural beauty but a moment, when it is drawn instinctively to the
magnificent grounds which surround it. They are about sixty acres in extent,
and afford unusual facilities in the nature of the soil, rocks, and forest trees,
for landscape gardening and picturesque effects, all of which have been im-
proved to the fullest extent, until one would almost imagine them the em-
bodiment of a poet’s dream. The grand view of the lake and surrounding
beautiful scenery is also one of the best the city affords. In addition to the
residence, Mr. Cannon’s grounds contain a fine green-house, stables for his
large stud of horses, and cottages for his gardeners, coachmen, and others
employed about the place.

CHURCHES,

Notwithstanding the rapid growth of the population from 1783 to 1800, the
privileges of public worship were but rarely enjoyed. The few who desired
them obtained an opportunity only at long intervals, when the town was
visited by itinerant missionaries and other transient ministers. But in 1799,
the Rev. Daniel C. Sanders having taken up his residence here for the pur-
pose of getting the University into practical operation, the people soon after
took measures by which he was voted $400.00 per annum for preaching at
stated periods. In November, 1799, he commenced his labors, preaching in
the court-house.

First Calvinistic Congregational Church.—On the 21st of February, 1805,
fourteen persons, members of churches chiefly in Connecticut, met at the
house of Moses Catlin, and after a repeated perusal of articles of faith and a
form of church covenant, prepared by Rev. Mr. Sanders, agreed to enter into

covenant with God and one another, as a church of Christ, and in testimony
thereof signed the articles and covenant. On the 23d, immediately after ser-
mon, the articles and covenant were read, and assent to them being con.
tinued, they were publicly declared, by Pres’t Saunders, to be a “regular
church of the Lord Jesus Christ, established in Burlington.” By way of dis-
tinction from another church formed here five years afterwards, the name it
now bears was given the society. The names of the original members are as
follows: Ebenezer Lyman, Daniel Coit, Ozias Buel, Daniel C. Sanders, Abi-
gail Catlin, Sarah Atwater, Anna Lyman, Nancy Sanders, Amelia Tuttle,
Abigail Buel, Miriam Whetmore, Clarissa Lyman, and Lucinda Catlin. Mr,
Sanders was elected their moderator and clerk, and served as such until their
first pastor, Rev. Daniel Haskell, was ordained. Their meetings continued to
be held in the court-house until 1812, when their first church edifice was
erected, of wood. This was consumed by fire, kindled by an incendiary, on
the morning of June 23, 1839, and replaced by the present building, dedicated
April 14, 1842. It is built of brick, located on the corner of College and
South Union streets, will accommodate 600 persons, and is valued, including
grounds, etc., at $70.000.00. The society now has about 300 members with
Rev. L. O. Brastow, D. D., pastor.

The First Congregational Society in Burlington, a Unitarian church,
located on Pearl, at the head of Churchstreet, was organizedin 1810. To get
at the facts of its organization, however, it is necessary to tuin back a few
years previous to 1810. On June 5, 1805, several of the substantial free-
holders joined in a petition to George Robinson, town clerk, to warn a meet-
ing of the inhabitants, for the purpose of forming themselves into a society
for social and public worship, agreeable to the form and effect of the statute,
entitled ‘“‘An act for the support of the gospel,” passed October 26, 1797.
This petition was signed by William C. Harrington, Lyman King, Osias
Buell, Arza Crane, Elnathan Keyes, Moses Catlin, David Russell, James Saw-
yer, Samuel Hickok, John Pomeroy, and Horace Loomis. The people met
accordingly, without distinction of opinions, and voted unanimously to form
themselves into a society by the name of the “First Society for Social and
Public Worship in the Town of Burlington.” This association flourished for
a time, but soon dissentions began to arise on doctrinal points, the contro-
versy ending in January, 1810, when articles of association, whereby a very
large majority of the male inhabitants of the town formed themselves into a
Unitarian society, by the name of the “First Congregational Society in the
Town of Burlington,” articles being adopted in public meeting. A call was
given to Rev. Samuel Clark, who had been preaching a few Sundays in town
by invitation, to be their minister, and by him accepted, at a salary of $550.00
per year. He served the society for twelve years, with little or no interrup-
tion, and died on Wednesday, May 2, 1827, having five years previously re-
signed his pastoral office in consequence of an attack of pulmonary disease.
The church was erected in 1816, a neat, substantial brick structure, costing,

including bell, clock, and organ, about $23,000.00. It was dedicated Thurs-
day, January 9, 1817, and stands to-day little changed from what it was then.
The society is at present large and in a flourishing condition, under the pastoral
charge of Rev. L. G. Ware.

(THIRD CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF BURLINGTON.)

The Third Congregational Church of Burlington is located on the corner
of College and Union streets.. As two Congregational churches had been
organized on the same doctrinal basis, only one of which had adhered to the faith
their articles expressed, it was thought that the growing necessities of the Con-
gregational body required the organization of another church. Accordingly,
after several meetings for consultation and prayer on the part of those who
were engaged in the enterprise, the Third Congregational Society was or-
160 TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON.

 

ganized at the house of Mrs. E. W. Buell, on July 21, 1860, and public ser-
vices commenced in the court-house on the 9th of the following September,
On the 4th of November, 1860, the Third Congregational Church was or-
ganized, in the court-house, the Rev Joseph Torrey, D. D., of Burlington,
assisted by the Rev Simeon Parmelee, D. D., of Underhill, presiding at the
organization. The original members comprised fifty-two persons, of whom
forty-five brought letters of dismission from the First Calvinistic Congrega-
tional church, three from other churches, and four united on profession of
their faith. G. W. Benedict, H. P. Hickok, and B. W. Smith were elected
deacons. On December 26th, the Rev. Geo. B. Safford was installed as pastor,
through a council, of which the Rev G. W. Blagden, D. D., of Boston, was
moderator, and the Rev. G. E. Sanborn, of Georgia, Vt., clerk, the services.
being conducted in the house of the First church. The construction of their
elegant house of worship, of which we furnish an accompanying cut, was com-
menced in the spring of 1863, the congregation in the meantime continuing
to meet in the court-house, until the chapel in the basement of their new
building was ready for use, where they first met on the 15th of January, 1865,
On February 27, 1866, the completed house was dedicated to the worship of
God, on which occasion a sermon was preached by the Rev. E. N. Kirk, D.
D., of Boston. The whole cost of the edifice, which is built of stone, and
has a capacity for seating 650 persons, was $50,000.00, while the entire
church property is now valued at $55,000.00. The society has 160 members,
a well-organized Sabbath school with 120 members and an average attend-
ance of seventy, and is in a flourishing condition. Rev. George B. Safford,
D. D., is pastor.

The First Methodist Episcopal Church, located on Winooski avenue, was
organized in 1801, by Rev. Ebenezer Washburn, their first pastor, and Maj.
Jonathan Breckenridge, in 1801, consisting of ninemembers. The first house
of worship was constructed of wood, 60x40 feet, and completed in 1832. The
present elegant stone edifice, affording seating room for 700 persons, was
completed in 1870, having cost $45,000.00. The property is now valued
at $66,000.00. The society has 413 members, under the pastoral charge
of Rev. Merritt Hulburd, A. M. It also his a fine Sabbath school, contain-
ing 422 members.

The Protestant Episcopal Society of Burlington, located on St. Paul street,
was first organized here by the name of St. Paul’s church, in April, 1831,
though the services of the church had been celebrated in the town occasion-
ally for several years previcus. The first corporators were Hon. Heman
Allen, Timothy Follett, Andrew Thompson, Justus Burdick, Phineas At-
water, Luman Foote, and Chauncey Goodrich. At-its organization, fifty-four
persons became members. On May ist, 1831, the Rev. George T. Chapman,
D. D., was chosen rector of the parish, and entered on his duties the second
Sunday in June following. During the same year work was commenced on
a house of worship, the elegant building of blue limestone the society yet
TOWN AND CITY OF BURLINGTON, 161

occupies, and it was finished and dedicated by the late Bishop Hopkins, No-
vember 25, 1832. The grounds and building, including bell, cost $8,000. 09,
and, in 1857, it was enlarged and repaired at a cost of $7,000.00 more. In
1867, the size of the building was nearly doubled, about twenty thousand
dollars being expended upon it so that it can now comfortably accommodate
eight or nine hundred persons. In 1881, it was much improved and beauti-
fied by the removal of its side galleries, thus enhancing the symmetry of the
inside, and increasing the light, and also by the erection, through the generos-
ity of Mr John P. Howard, one of its members, of a beautiful stone chapel,
which cost $10,000.00 The building, which is valued, including grounds, at
about $75,000.00, is one of the finest church edifices in the State. The
society has at present 388 members, with Rev. William C. Dawson, rector.

The First Baptist Church, \ocated on St. Paul, between Bank and Cherry
streets, was organized by its first pastor, Rev. Mr. Norris, September 26, 1834,
with eleven members. The first house of worship was erected in 1842, and
gave place to the present elegant structure in 1864, which will seat 734 persons,
and cost $63,000.00. Its present value, including grounds, is estimated at
$65,000.00. The society now has 352 members, with a Sabbath school of
400 pupils, and Rev. F. J. Parry, pastor.

The Immaculate Conception Roman Catholic Church, or St. Mary’s Cathedral,
as it is generally known, was organized by the Rev. J. O’Callagan, in 1832.
Father O’Callagan continued in charge of the parish until November, 1853. At
this time Vermont, which was until then comprisedin the limits of the diocese of
Boston, was erected into a diocese of which Burlington was made the See,
and the Right Rev. L. DeGoesbriand consecrated its first Bishop, a position
he still occupies. The first house of worship was erected upon the lot now
used by them as a cemetery, in 1832, and was destroyed by fire in 1838. After
the burning of the church, until 1841, when the basement of the present edi-
fice was completed, services were held in the court-house. The building was
considerably enlarged and improved in 1866, making a structure capable of
seating 1,200 persons, and valued, including grounds, at $150,060.00.

St. Joseph's Catholic Church is located on North Prospect street. In 1841,
the French Catholics, under the direction of Rev. Mr. Anse, put up a church
edifice near the site of the building burned in 1838, and after that the two
congregations had separate services. In 1850, the French resolved to build.
the present neat edifice known as St. Joseph’s church, which was completed
under the direction of Rev. Joseph Quevillon. The society is now under the
pastoral charge of the Rev. Jerome Cloarec.

In addition to these, one of the most extensive building enterprises now in.
progress in the city is that of a new Catholic convent and chapel on North
avenue. The building, when completed, will be 170x55 feet, three stories
and a basement, all except the basement, whichis of stone, to be built of brick,

with a plain slate roof, surmounted by a tower.

162 TOWN OF CHARLOTTE.

 

(HARLOTTE, a lake town in the southwestern part of the county, lying
a in lat. 44° 18’ and long. 3° 49, is bounded north by Shelburne, east by
qe Hinesburgh, south by Ferrisburgh and a portion of Monkton, in Addi-
son County, and west by Lake Champlain. The town was granted by New
Hampshire to Benjamin Ferris and sixty-four associates, the charter bearing
date June 25, 1762, conveying to them a tract of land about six miles square,
containing 24,060 acres bounded as follows :—

“ Beginning at a marked tree standing in the northerly line of the township
of Monkton, thence running west about two miles and one half by Monkton
to the northwesterly corner thereof, which is also the northwesterly corner of
Ferrisburgh, and thence about four miles by Ferrisburgh aforesaid to Lake
Champlain; then beginning again at the first mentioned marked tree, and
running thence north six miles to a marked tree, thence west about six miles
to Lake Champlain aforesaid, then as the said lake runs, southerly to the
northeasterly corner bound of Ferrisburgh aforesaid.”

No changes have been made in the area thus bounded in the charter deed,
a territory that presents as good agricultural facilities, and a surface with as
rare points of natural scenery as are to be found in the county. Extending
through the township from north to south is a range of low mountains or
hills, dividing the town into two nearly equal parts, the highest elevations
being Mount Philo in the southern, Pease Mountain in the central, and Mut-
ton Hill in the northern part, from either of which may be obtained a view
that is well worthy the labor of a journey to their summits. Looking east-
ward, a panorama is presented to the beholder, only exceeded in beauty and
grandeur by that extending before the westward-looking eye. Eastward, the
Green Mountains stand against the horizon, with Camel’s Hump and Mans-
field piercing the clouds, silent, grand, “ rock-ribbed, and ancient as the sea,”
between which and the beholder lie many peaceful glens and rural glades,
well-kept farms and modest homesteads. Westward, a more glorious scene is
presented to the beholder, for just enough of the intervening country with
its beautiful farms and neat dwellings, just enough of the blue waters of the
unequaled Champlain, backed by the long stretch of the Adironacks, rough,
rugged, silent and sublime, to form a picture beautiful in the extreme, one
that perhaps may be the better summed up in the two words,—“ Vermont's
best.” This natural division of the town, however, has not only been in sur-
face, but also politically, leading to much rivalry and jealous feeling on the
part of the inhabitants of the two divisions, retarding somewhat the growth
and best interests of the township ; still, this unenviable strife may now be
counted as one of the unpleasantries of the past, or at least if any of the old
feeling exists it is fast dying out.

The rocks entering into the geological formation, as is the case, indeed,
with most other towns in the State, are disposed in distinct ledges or veins,
extending in a general north and south direction. The first of these veins,
beginning on the west, is a narrow belt of Black River limestone, forming the
TOWN OF CHARLOTTE. 163

 

 

 

main rock-bed of Thompson’s Point. Next, extending nearly the whole
length of the town, is a bed of Zrenton Limestone, lying beside aledge of Utica
slate, next to which is a vein of Audson River slate, while the residue
of the town, except a small bed of Zolian Limestone or marble, in the
northeastern corner, is composed of red sandrock. These veins, however,
are varied by all the modifications incident to the several rock forma-
tions, as are more fully described in the county chapter. Overlying these
rocks is a rich fertile soil, owing to which, and the lack of mill privileges, the
industry of the people has always been devoted to agriculture. Coupled with
this rare fertility was a large amount of marketable timber—valuable oak in
the western and pine in the eastern parts, accounting quite readily for the
rapid growth of the population after settlement was once begun, offering, as it
did, superior advantages to the pioneers who flocked thither faster than to
any other town in the county. This superior quality of land and beauty of
location is also attested by the numbers now residing upon the homestead of
of their ancestors, proving the fallacy of Stephen A. Douglass’s assertion that
“Vermont is a good State—to emigrate from.”

The principal streams are Lewis Brook, flowing across the southeastern
corner of the town, and upon which is situated the only mill-site of the town-
ship ; LaPlotte River, flowing across the northeastern corner; Bear’s Brook,
flowing south into Addison County, and thence turning north again, across
the southwestern corner of the town, where it is discharged into the lake;
Beaver Brook, rising in the central part of the township, flowing north into
LaPlotte River; and Pringle Brook, also rising in the central part of the
town, flowing west and northerly into Holmes Creek, and thence into the lake.
All of these streams have several tributaries, while numerous other small
brooks are distributed over the country, furnishing plenteous irrigation to
the soil.

Among the several curiosities and wonders of nature found in Charlotte is
a remarkable cavity in a low mountain in the southeastern part of the town, on
the line of Addison County, known as Dean’s Cave. In company with Mr.
Joshua M. Dean, the proprietor of the land upon which the cavern is situated,
a gentlemanly and intelligent farmer, we paid a visit to the interesting locality,
an account of which may prove of interest at this point. After preparing a
quantity of pitch pine for torches, we started from Mr. Dean’s residence one
pleasant afternoon, and after a walk of a quarter of a mile, reached the foot
of the mountain wherein the cave is situated, and commenced its ascent, up
an easy grade, a sort of natural pass, for a half mile or so, then turned abruptly
to the left and up a steep bank, assisting our ascent by clinging to the numer-
ous small trees and shrubs with which it is clothed, for a distance of about
one hundred feet, which brought us to the summit, a wild spot covered with
a stunted growth of timber. Turning southward a distance of twenty rods,
wereached a little higher elevation, whose appearance reminds one of the little
girl’s remark that she thought her father was growing tall, as his bald head

was projecting through his hair ; for here, a bare, solid rock rises high above
its surroundings, a narrow ridge along which one must use caution in walking,
as a false step would precipitate him to the rocks below, a distance of forty
or fifty feet. Following along this ridge for twenty rods or so, we came to a
sudden stop, for immediately before us was a perpendicular precipice with
rough and jagged fragments of rocks lying at its base some eighity feet below,
which our guide designated the “jumping off place.” A few steps to the left
is a terrace or flat, with a surface ten or twelve feet wide and sixty feet long.
Here we halted, and Mr. Dean announced the spot as the “ Camping Ground.”
We now made preparations for entering the cave, and, turning downward a
short distance, enter an alley or fissure in the solid rock, about four feet in width,
and descend rapidly as we pass northward about forty feet between its walls,
then turn at right angles, west, and through a similar alley about the same dis-
tance as the first. At this point stands a birch tree, twenty inches in diame-
ter, whose base is full twenty feet below the surface of the rocks above, and
whose growth is only nourished by the decayed leaves which are swept into
the crevice by the winds. This ‘child of the rocks” so nearly fills the nar-
row passage that a large man would experience some difficulty in passing it.
Only a few feet from this point we turn again and are before the entrance of
a room, the opening of which is so small that it is necessary to turn about
and enter backward, crab-like, feet first. Once through this aperture it becomes
necessary to “light up,” and as the flickering glare of the torches dispel the
almost impenetrable darkness, we find ourselves thirty feet below ground, in a
room formed of solid rock, six feet wide, twenty feet long, and fifteen feet
high. At the farther extremity and connecting with this is another room
similar in construction, and of about the same size, turning off to the leftat
right angles. The ceiling or roof of both is a seamless rock with a surface as
level and smooth as a flagging-stone. In the misty ‘long ago” some mighty
force must have been exerted to have riven these masses in twain, crowding
them asunder, leaving this amazing display of power ; for the cavern was formed
in this manner, as is apparent from the corresponding deflections on either of
the opposite walls. Late in the afternoon we marched home, thanking our
guide, Mr. Dean, as we do now, for his courteous kindness,

Thompson’s Point is a cape or low promontory, projecting into Lake Cham-
plain, between Thorp’s Bay on the south and Barton’s Bay on the north. It
has an undulating surface, cut occasionally by jagged ledges of rock, leaving
an aspect of wild picturesqueness, while the extreme western extremity termi-
nates in a bold cliff commanding a magnificent view of the lake with its islands
and bays, a wide sweep of the country on the opposite shore, backed by the
towering Adirondacks. Directly opposite, on the western side of the lake, isa
high promontory or bluff, known as Split Rock, which is a curiosity in itself
By some powerful agency the mass of solid rock has been split in twain pet-
pendicularly, and thrown or forced apart, leaving a cleft ten or twelve feet in
width, through which, at high water, small boats may pass into a bay to the

westward. On the main cleft stands Split Rock Light House. All of these
points unite in forming a harmonious scene,—a picture of surpassing loveliness.
Cedar Beech is a popular summer and fishing resort, on the lake, about two
miles north of Thompson’s Point, and one-half mile south from McNeil’s
Ferry. It is apoint of land“ V” shaped, containing from twelve to fifteen acres,
the two water sides being of about equal length. The north side of the Point
is the south side of a small bay, where the wharf is located, and along some
portions of it is a gravelly beach, skirted with cedars. The bay forms a good
harbor from the prevailing north and south winds. The shore on the south
side is high and prominent, a bluff of rocks nearly perpendicular and about
thirty feet high. The point is of dry, gravelly soil, covered with a fine grove,
the whole of which is regular, smooth and accessible througout. This spot
had been a transient camping ground for fishing parties for many years, but
was purchased by a number of gentlemen residing in Burlington, in 1873,
known as the “Jolly Club.” The property is divided into thirty shares, and
thus gives to each about four rods space along the water-front for building
purposes. Fifteen cottages have already been built, with barns and other
out-buildings, a club-house, boat-house, and two ice-houses. The cottages
are neat and well painted. Each family has a row-boat also, the boats being
new, and altogether forming one of the largest and most costly fleets of small
boats on the lake. New cottages are being added every year, and in all
probability it will not be many years before the whole thirty will be built.
This point is said to be the nearest to a railroad station of any on the lake,
in Vermont, except Burlington and Alburgh, and also communicates directly
with Essex, N. Y., three miles across the lake, by ferry. Essex, N. Y., is a
landing for all passenger steamboats. A steam yacht runs between this
place and Burlington during the months of July and August, and the families,
as a general thing, reside here during these two months, the men who are en-
gaged in business going and returning at their convenience. These people are
among the first people in Burlington, where they mostly reside, and are a law
unto themselves. Hon. C. M. Spaulding is president, James A Shedd, vice-
president, and Warren Gibbs, secretary and treasurer. The club is governed
by a constitution and by-laws, and each proprietor pays annually five dollars
towards the general expenses, and to keep the grounds in ‘Tepait. The best
of order prevails, and Sundays are strictly observed, religious services being
frequently held and well attended. Of the numerous resorts on the lake, this
is said to be the only one where the campers own their grounds and completely
controlthem. At the western end of Thompson’s Point, covering an area of six
or eight acres, is a fine grove of primeval forest trees, at an elevation of about
fifty feet above the level of the lake. In this sylvan retreat is located “Camp
Pleasant,” the park of the Thompson’s Point Club, whose members occupy
these agreeable grounds as a watering place during the heated season, spend-
ing the time in social intercourse, fishing, and other recreations. This as-
sociation was organized in 1870, with eight members, James Squier, C. C.

Martin, D. W. Hazard, L. B. Fuller, H. C. Leavenworth, O. E. Stone, W.R.
Williams, and A. H. Barker, which number has since increased to sixty.
There are eight neat cottages and a club-house on the grounds, and in the
season there are also numerous tents, occupied by as many as three hundred
persons. One of the by-laws of the club prohibits the use of intoxicating
drink, and also forbids its presence on the grounds ; another requires a due ob-
servance of the Sabbath, and forbids fishing onthat day. Though the grounds
are owned by the town, the club is recognized by it, and a superintendent ap-
pointed at each town meeting, whose business it is to care for the park and
enforce order if necessary. The present list of club officers is as follows:
James Squier, president; D. W. Hazard, secretary; H. C. Root, treasurer ;
James Squier, collector; John H. Thorp, superintendent ; and O. E. Stone and
D. W. Hazard, directors.

A convenient mode of transportation for the abundant crops is afforded by
the Rutland branch of the Central Vermont Railroad, which extends through
the western part of the town from north to south, with a station about one-
half mile west of Charlotte Four Corners, on road 18. The advent of this
road, in 1847-49, considerably increased the commercial interests of the
locality, even though it was objected to by some at that time.

In 1880, Charlotte had a population of 1,342, was divided into fourteen
school districts, and contained thirteen common schools, employing four male
and fourteen female teachers at an aggregate salary of $1,879.42. There
were 237 pupils attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools
for the year, ending October 31st, was $2,128.59, Mr. W. H. H. Varney
acting as superintendent.

CHARLOTTE Four Corners (Charlotte p. o.).—As is to be expected in
any strictly agricultural district, no large villages have been built. This vil-
lage, the largest, situated about one-half mile east of the railroad station, con-
tains one church (Methodist), Lake View Seminary, two stores, a shoe shop,
blacksmith shop, and about twenty dwellings.

Charlotte Female Seminary was established at this village in 1836. Miss
Mary Grout was the first teacher, remaining two or three years, and was
deservedly popular. Owing to its unfavorable location, however, the school
was not sustained. In 1840, the property was transferred to the Methodist
Episcopal Society, and though never very successful, a select school was main-
tained until the building was finally destroyed by fire, November 21, 1880.
During the following year the inhabitants, by voluntary subscriptions, erected
a symmetrical and convenient edifice upon the old site, and reorganized the
school under the title of Lake View Seminary, which was lately opened with
every prospect of success, under the direction of Mr. John Dewey, A. B.,
as principal.

CHARLOTTE CENTER, a hamlet located near the central part of the town,
contains one church (Congregational), the town-house, a hotel, and a few
dwellings. '
TOWN OF CHARLOTTE. 167

Baptist Four Corners (East Charlotte p. 0.), located in the eastern part
of the town, contains two churches (Roman Catholic and Baptist), one store,
a blacksmith shop, and about a dozen dwellings. The intelligent and think-
ing people of this village have for many years maintained a lyceum, having
a convenient hall in which they meet for discussion and public lectures.
Lyceum Hall is also used for the sessions of a select school.

Alanson Edgerton & Sons’ cider-mill, located on road 29, corner 35, is
operated by horse-power, and turns out twenty barrels of cider per day, man-
ufacturing about 700 barrels during a season.

Wilber Fields's hay-barn and hay-press, located at the railroad depot, on
road 18, receives and presses about 700 tons of hay annually.

West Charlotte Cheese Factory, located on road g, corner 35, is owned and
operated by a stock company organized November 31, 1873, the present list
of officers being as follows: John H. Thorp, president ; Henry C. Root,
secretary; A. A. Byington, S. A. Williams, and Charles Keese, directors.
The factory receives the milk from 300 to 400 cows, manufacturing about
40,000 pounds of cheese per annum.

Charlotte Cheese Factory, \ocated in the eastern part of the town, was
organized by a stock company in the fall of 1867, the buildings being erected
during the following spring. During the last season there was 19,000 pounds
of cheese manufactured from the milk of 175 cows.

Scotts saw and grist-mill, \ocated in the southeastern part of the town, on
Lewis Creek, operates one run of stones, and saws about 200,000 feet of lum-
ber per year, having the capacity for sawing 1,000 feet per hour. Mr. Scott
has also a butter-tub factory in connection with his mill.

H. D. Alexander's vineyard and fruit farm, located on a pleasant slope
alittle west of the center of the town, has in bearing condition about 2,200
choice vines, embracing most of the truly valuable varieties, and also a large
quantity of fine raspberry and strawberry plants. His fruit grounds cover an
area of eight acres, enclosed by a beautiful hedge of arborvitee.

That most of the original proprietors were residents of Connecticut, and
Duchess County, N. Y., is to be inferred from the fact that all of their meet-
ings, previous to the Revolution, were held on the “ Oblong,” in Duchess
County, and at New Milford, Conn. At the last meeting held previous to
the war, May 18, 1765, a vote was passed to give one hundred acres of land
from each right for settling the land, but no one was to come on without first
procuring an order from a committee of the proprietors chosen for the pur-
pose. No one availed himself of the offer, however, or at least no record was
ever made of any-such order being issued. Neither did any of the grantees
ever settle in the town themselves, though some of their children made settle-
ments here.

The first effort towards a settlement was made by Derrick Webb, who
came here in March, 1776, made a short stay, and returned again in March
of : the following year, remaining until May. Subsequent to the Revolution,

in 1784, Webb returned in company with Elijah Wolcott, and from that time
the rapid growth of the town begins.

The principal difficulties the inhabitants encountered during the first years
of their settlement, were the lack of roads, markets, and mills. ‘The rich soil
rapidly yielded abundant fruit of their toil, but they were in the midst of a
trackless wilderness, with no means of transporting their harvests to market.
For several years the nearest mill was at Whitehall, and subsequently at Ver-
gennes. Incoming to the town the pioneers wended their way through the
forest on foot, or the more fortunate on horseback, while others came on
from the southern extremity of Lake Champlain by boat. James Hill and
his wife came on horseback, finding their way by means of marked trees,
bringing three children with them. Mr. Yale and family came by way of
Whitehall, on the ice of the lake, in a sleigh drawn by a pair of steers and an
old horse.

Bears and wolves were numerous, the former often troublesome. Stately
bucks with lofty, branching antlers, and timid, symmetrical does were often
seen on the lake shore or crossing the hills, while the hunters occasionally en-
countered the moose. One instance, illustrating Bruin’s mischievous, vicious
propensities, is related by W. L. Yale, of his grandmother, Mrs. Moses Yale,
mentioned above. It seems that on one occasion when her husband was away
from home over night, she heard the pig squeal. So taking the loaded gun
from its accustomed convenient position, she went out into the darkness and
fired in the direction of the inharmonious sound. Hearing no more calls
from the porker, she re-entered the house and retired. In the morning, a
a few rods from the pig-pen, a large bear lay dead.

Traces of numerous beaver dams are also extant in several localities.
We were informed by Myron H. Hosford that there are several on his farm
in the western part of the town. In draining the land which was occupied
by these ingenious architects, he has found timber, perfectly sound, from
one to four inches in diameter and two to four feet long, cut and stripped
of its bark by the strong teeth of these industrious and provident animals.

Immigration was so rapid that three years after the first settlement, in 1787,
it was thought the population was sufficiently large to warrant the organiza-
tion of the town and election of proper town officers, which was accordingly
done. In 1791, at the taking of the first census, the township had 635 in-
habitants—the most populous town in the northern part of the State. At
the first town meeting, held March 13, 1787, the following officers were elected:
John McNeil, clerk; Reuben Rowley and Samuel Scovill, constables; and
Asa Barnes, John McNeil, John Hill, James Hill, and Isaac Coggswell, select-
men. The first justice was Daniel Hosford, chosen in 1786; first represent-
ative, John McNeil, chosen in 1788.

James Hill, previously mentioned, came from Connecticut with his family,
consisting of a wife and three children. His wife, a brave, energetic woman,
was a daughter of Gov. Thomas Chittenden. Mr. Hill immediately com-

menced the building of a log-house, in raising the logs of which Mrs. Hill
was his only help, his children being too small to be of any assistance. This
family, so far as we can learn, made the first permanent settlement in the
township, coming probably, in 1782, locating upon the present grounds sur-
rounding what is now called “Holmes Bay.” Mr. Hill, having some
means, built the first grist-mill, a few years after his arrival here, on the creek
near his home. Here was brought the wheat of the early farmers to be
ground, or exchanged for flour. Thus he carriedon quite an extensive trade
with his neighbors and the farmers residing on the opposite side of the lake.
Subsequently, he bought the grist-mill in Ferrisburgh, to which place his son,
Thomas Chittenden Hill, removed, taking charge of the property about
two or more years, when it was sold. Mr. Hill continued in successful busi-
ness some twenty-five or thirty years, when he emigrated to Kentucky, where
he soon after died. He had two sons, James and Thomas C. James removed
to Kentucky with his father, married there, and remained during his life,
where many of his descendants still reside. Thomas C., the youngest, bought
the homestead and held it during his life. He was a man of remarkable
firmness and decision of character, and possessed of clear and accute per-
ceptions. On this account, his judgment was often sought in business mat-
ters, and contracts drawn by him are said to have been made with legal
soundness. He lived to an advanced age, possessing the respect and confi-
dence of all. Thomas C. was the father of nine children, four of whom are
now living, George and James E., in IIl., Elizabeth (Parkill), in Essex, N. Y.,
and Thomas C., who owns and occupies the old homestead.

Moses Yale emigrated from Meriden, Conn., to Charlotte, in 1783, locating
upon the farm where Roswell and Miles Newton nowreside. Here he made
a small clearing, accomplished by exchange of labor with his only neighbors,
James Hill and John McNeil, sowed it with wheat, put up the body of a log
house, and in the autumn returned to his family in Meriden. In the spring
of 1784, he returned to Charlotte, coming by way of Whitehall to avoid the
untraveled wilderness, thence down the lake on the ice, bringing his family
and furniture on a sled drawn by a yoke of steers and an old horse. On their
arrival, they cleared the snow from the log-house, made a roof from the boughs
of the surrounding trees, and installed themselves in their home with all the
comforts of house-keeping that their circumstances could afford. During the
summer ensuing, food was so scarce and difficult to obtain that the family
was compelled to subsist on fish and the herbs and roots that the forest
afforded. Mr. Yale had a family of six children, three sons and three
daughters, only one of whom, Lyman, remained in Charlotte. He, being
the eldest of the children, and a good financier, paid up the claims against
the homestead, thereby securing for himself a good farm and comfortable
home, where he continued to reside until his death, in 1840, aged sixty-seven
years. During his long life here he held many important positions in the gift of .
his townsmen, among which, that of representative during one term. Of his

family of seven children, only one, Wilham, now lives in the town, residing
on the farm formerly owned by John McNeil.

John McNeil was a leading man among the early settlers. He came here
from Litchfield, Conn., and located upon the shore of the lake, where he
established a ferry across to Essex, N. Y., which has ever since borne his
name. He was the first town clerk, first representative, and until his death
was prominently identified with the public interests of the town. He hada
family of six children, of whom Charles, the eldest, retained the home farm,
where he engaged in farming and conducting the ferry his father had estab-
lished. The latter at that time was quite an extensive enterprise, as the im-
mense travel from Western Vermont to Northern New York mostly crossed the
lake at this point, until the building of the railroad, which established new lines
of travel. Charles had a family of fifteen children, fourteen of whom arrived
at maturity, and two, Henry and James B., are now residents of the town.

David Hubbell, from Lanesboro, Mass., came to Charlotte in 1784, locating
on the brook that runs through the farm now owned by his grandson, Luther
R. Hubbell. He made his journey thither by way of Whitehall, thence down
the lake on a timber raft. Two or three years after he came, his house was
destroyed by fire, and was replaced by another, upon the site of S. E. Rus-
sell’s present residence. In this house he soon after opened a hotel, where
he continued a prosperous business for many years. The house now occu-
pied by his grandson was also built by him, in 1800. Mr. Hubbell was called
by his townsmen to serve them as justice of the peace, also to represent them
in the legislature, which he did with honor and ability. He died at the ad-
vanced age of ninety years. His descendants in this town are his son, Sol-
omon W., aged eighty-four years, and his grandson, Luther R., and family.

Daniel Hosford, born in Canaan, Conn., October 13, 1748, married Hannah
Day, of Colchester, Conn., November 9, 1780, and removed to this town in
the spring of 1784, where they located on a farm near McNeil’s Ferry. He
was several times dipossessed of his property on account of bad titles, so he
finally located in the eastern part of the town, where he died at the advanced
age of eighty-eight years. Mr. Hosford was a land surveyor by profession,
and carried on the occupation in adjoining towns, at the same time continu-
ing farming. The compass used by him is now in the possession of his grand-
son, Myron H. Hosford, who treasures it as a valuable relic of antiquity.
Daniel served in many of the town offices and also represented his townsmen
in the legislature. Of his family of ten children, only three settled in Char-
lotte. Flavia, the eldest daughter, born about three months before they came
to Charlotte, married Gideon Prindle, and is now represented in the town by
her son, Hon. Charles D. Prindle, the present legislator. Oran Hosford, the
only son who located here, was born January 30, 1791, and married Cynthia
Hinsdale. With him Daniel resided in his old age. Oran is now represented
by Myron H. Hosford. Sodema, the remaining daughter, married Benjamin

leaving no children. ;

Ephraim Wooster, from Litchfield, Conn., came to Charlotte in 1785, and
located upon the farm now owned by Henry McNeil, where he resided until
his death. He reared a family of three children, Lyman, Elinor, and Fanny.
Lyman purchased the farm from the estate at his father’s death, where he car-
ried on farming mainly, though he kept a public house short periods at dif-
ferent times. He served in the war of 1812, and was at the battle of Platts-
burgh in the capacity of adjutant. His family consisted of three sons and
two daughters, none of whom remained in this town. The only representa-
tive of the name now in Charlotte, is Charles S. Wooster, a grandson of Ly-
man, residing with his aunt, Mrs. Sherman.

John Palmer, born in Tolland, Conn., June 22, 1751, married Ruth Chap-
man, and removed to this town in 1786, locating on the place now owned
by Mrs. Ruth Hubbell. His old house, built nearly one hundred years
ago, is still standing in a good state of preservation. He owned all the land
comprised in the farms of Mrs. Hubbell, A. C. and O. C. Palmer, on
which he settled his sons. His family consisted of six children. Abigail,
the eldest, born about 1780, married Edward Allen, both long since deceased.
John, the eldest son, born September 5, 1783, married Lovisa Hill and had a
family of nine children, of whom two daughters are now living in Westfield,
N. Y., another in Essex, Vt., and the remaining three in Charlotte, viz.: Ruth
(Hubbell) on the homestead, A. C. Palmer, on a part of the original farm,
and the youngest, Mrs. Reed, with her brother.

Asa Narramore came to Charlotte from Connecticut in 1786. The first
season he worked on a farm in Hinesburgh, and in the fall bought 200 acres
of landin this town on road 7. Here he erected a log house and returned to
Connecticut for the winter, where he married, and in the spring returned to
his farm, where he remained until his death, at the age of ninety years. He
reared a family of nine children, two of whom are now living, John Naramore,
aged eigty-two years, residing on a portion of the original farm, and his sister,
Mrs. Emeline See, aged seventy-two years, residing in Williston. Asa wasa
soldier in the Revolution, and was taken prisoner by the Indians and marched
toCanada. On the journey he had only a daily allowance of a small piece of
raw horse flesh, and a few bulbous roots, dug as they passed along. He after-
wards received a pension.

Abel Leavenworth, born at Woodbury, Conn., January 30, 1765, came to
Charlotte at an early day in its history, locating in the northeastern part of
the town. Here he built a grist-mill on the LaPlotte River, on road ro, the
stones for the same being obtained from flint rocks found in this town, and
worked out by his brother, Gideon, who came on from Connecticut for that
purpose. The mill anddam were finally swept away, however, by afreshet. The
stones were purchased by Gen. Nathan Leavenworth, who put them in a mill
built by him on Lewis Brook, in the southern part of the town. After the loss of
172 TOWN OF CHARLOTTE,

 

his mill, Abel sold his farm and went to work at his trade of carpenter and
joiner, at which he was a very skillful and energetic workman. He died in
Middlebury, Vt., January, 25, 1813, where he was engaged in building a large
mill, and whither he had removed his family from New Haven, Vt., where he
owned a farm. His widow returned to New Haven, and thence to Char-
lotte, where she died, June 12, 1853, full of years, respected and loved by all
who knew her. Abel Leavenworth, Jr., born in Charlotte November 21, 1800,
married Annie Hickok, of Cooperstown, N. Y., June 12, 1826, a woman of
superior worth and culture. After the death of his father, in 1813, Abel, Jr.,
was the principal support of the family, although he was so young; and in
after life his house was ever the home for members of the family. For a few
years in early life he was engaged in the manufacture of marble on his father’s
old mill-site. He then purchased of his father-in-law the old farm where he
was born, and subsequently resold it to Mr. Hickok, and purchased a farm in
Madrid, N. Y., where he resided twelve years, or until 1844, when, on ac-
count of the health of his family, he returned to Charlotte, and finally re-
purchased the old homestead, where he resided until his death, May 3, 1879.
He had a family of nine children, six daughters and three sons. Only one of
the latter, Abel E., survived their infancy. He became a prominent edu-
cator in the State, and is at the present time principal and proprietor of the
State Normal School, at Castleton, Vt.

Dorman Leavenworth, a brother of Abel, one of the sufferers of Wyoming
massacre, came to Charlotte, arriving August 28, 1808, and soon after built a
grist and saw-mill, which he operated a few years, then purchased a farm and
commenced farming, continuing the same until 1839. He died here, at the
residence of his son, Burke, May 31, 1861, at an advanced age. He is now
represented here by two grandchildren, Mrs. Joseph S. Shaw and Henry C.
Leavenworth.

Stephen Boughton, from Pond Ridge, Conn., came to Charlotte at an early
day, where he followed the business of a builder. His family consisted of a
son, John J., and a daughter, Ano, now Mrs. William Noble, of Illinois.
Stephen continued his residence here until his death, at the age of eighty
years. John J. married Mary A. Breckenridge, and followed the occupation
of farming. His children were two daughters, Antoinette, now Mrs. Joseph
Barton, and Jeannette, who occupies the old homestead.

Michael Read, born in 1769, came to Charlotte at an early date. He
was the father of seven children, three of whom, Amos, Orrin and Laura,
settled here. Amos had two children, Charles and George. Charles now
resides in North Adams, Mass., and George died in this town. Orrin had
three children, sons, William M., deceased, Carleton W., residing in Addison,
where he is extensively engaged in stock raising, and Orrin P., residing at
Baptist Four Corners, the only representative of the family in Charlotte.

Samuel Prindle came to Charlotte at an early date, and located in the
northeastern part of the town. He raised a family of three sons, one of
TOWN OF CHARLOTTE. 173

whom died in early manhood, while the other two, Midas and Benjamin,
settled in Charlotte. Midas, born in 1799, married Sarah V. Higby, May 20,
1834, and located upon the farm now owned by his son, Henry W. He had
a family of three children, viz.: Mrs. A. C. Palmer, Henry W., and Mrs. T.
C. Hill. Benjamin emigrated to Iowa about twenty years ago, taking all his
family with him, where he died a few years after,

Reuben Martin, from Massachusetts, came to Charlotte among the early
settlers, locating on Mutton Hill. He reared a family of seven children, all
of whom lived to middle age, some to very old age. His daughter, Sylvia, is
said to have been the first female child born in the town.

James Squier came to Charlotte from Arlington, Vt., in 1788, and located
upon the farm now owned and occupied by James S. Miller. He was an
amiable, peaceful neighbor, an indulgent parent, and amassed a considerable
property. He died at the advanced age of ninety-three years. The father of
James came to Charlotte on a visit to his sons, Solomon and Abner, was
taken sick and soon after died, and at his grave was placed the first head-
stone erected in the town. Jamescame on during his father’s illness, and
was induced to buy his brother Abner’s farm and remain here. He reared a
family of four children, three daughters and a son. Betsey, the eldest,
married James Barnes and removed to Ohio, where she now lives and has a
numerous family. Laura married John McDonnell, and remained in town
until her death. Lucina never married, and died in Charlotte. Abner mar-
ried Laura Sheldon and settled on the homestead. He was a popular ard
influential man among his townsmen, whom he represented two terms in
the legislature, and also served in most of the town trusts: He had two
children, asonandadaughter. The daughter died at the age of sixteen. The
son, James, now owns and occupies a farm on the west side of the road, op-
posite the old home, where he enjoys the regards of a large circle of ac-
quaintances.

Col, William Williams, from Lanesboro, Mass., came to Charlotte in 1788,
and settled as a farmer in the wilderness. By untiring energy and constant
hard work he soon cleared his farm, and for the times was in easy circum-
stances. His first dwelling was a log cabin containing but one room, with a
Dutch fire-place which was supplied with logs for the fire that were so large
that he attached a log chain to one end of the log, hitched a horse to the
chain, and hauled the log into the cabin, the horse passing in at one door and
out at another opposite. About 1806, he built the house, now modernized.
and in good preservation, the dwelling of his grandson, James W. Williams.
This he opened as a public house, and it soon became an important station on
the stage route between Burlington and Troy. At this time there were eight
hotels in Charlotte, all very well supported by the traveling farmers, who were
hauling their produce to Albany and Troy, their nearest markets. Mr. Will.
iams was early promoted to the office of colonel of militia, and was stationed
on the frontier between Vermont and Canada, and also commanded a regi-

ment at the battle of Plattsburgh. He was a strong, vigorous man, totally a
stranger to fear, somewhat rough in manners, of the Ethan Allen type; but
withal noble and generous, ready to assist the needy and sympathize with the
afflicted. His life, however, was brought to an untimely end by a fall from a
sleigh load of lumber, while descending a steep hill in the adjoining town of
Hinesburgh.

Preserved Wheeler came to Charlotte, from Lanesboro, Mass., in 1790,
and located upon the place now occupied by Deacon E. H. Wheeler, where
he established a tannery. He continued this business about seven years,
then sold the property to his brother, Sheldon, who came to Charlotte with
him as an apprentice to the trade, and removed to New Haven, Addison
County. Sheldon continued the tanning and shoemaking business quite
successfully for a number of years, or as late as 1843, when he discontinued
it and commenced farming. Sheldon married early and was the father of
nine children, eight of whom arrived at maturity, and three of whom are now
living,—a daughter, aged eighty-two years, residing in Indiana, Dea. E. H.
Wheeler, on the old homestead, aged seventy-eight years, and Rev. O. G.
Wheeler, pastor of the South Hero Congregational church for the last forty-
one years.

Elijah Alexander was born in Troy, N. H., March 24, 1777, and at the age
of twenty-two married Lydia Staples, of Danby, Vt., and settled in Char-
lotte, on the farm now owned by Mrs. Lydia Hicks, his youngest daughter.
The farm at first contained one hundred acres, but by constant industry he
improved this and made additions to the territory, until at his death he had
increased it to over three hundred. He lived to the age of seventy-seven
years, having declined all offices and honors offered him by his appreciative
townsmen. Of his family of seven children, only three are now living, Rachel,
widow of Leavenworth, residing in Shelburne ; Ezra, the only son, settled
on the farm now owned by Geo. Clark, but afterwards was an enterprising and
successful merchant for many years, and his two sons, Harrison D. and Orson
H., now reside here; Sarah married Johnson Foote, and died here in 1875.
Her children now living are Mrs. D. W. Hazard, Henry A., Flora J., and
George A. Foote. Lydia A., widow of Hicks, occupies the old home-
stead, and has one son.

Walter Ferris, from Pawling, Duchess Co., N. Y., came to this town in
1792, locating on the farm now known as the “ Ferris Homestead.” He
engaged in farming, but for a period of about six years previous to his death
was a minister in the Universalist churches in the vicinity, and organized
several societies of that denomination. He died in 1806, beloved and hon-
ored by a large circle of friends and acquaintances.

William Niles, born at Lynn, Conn., in 1756, came to Charlotte in 1792,
and located upon the farm now known as the Pitt E. Hewitt place, where he
resided for many years. Being a man of ability, much of his time was called
to fill public offices, in the fulfillment of which he was strictly true and honest.

 

 
TOWN OF CHARLOTTE. 1768
Later in life he removed to Monkton, where he owned a small farm, and kept
a public house a portion of the time until his death, at the advanced age of
ninety-two years. His daughter, Betsey, married Reuben Powell and settled
with her husband upon the place their son, Edgar S., now occupies.

Gideon Prindle came to Charlotte from New Milford, Conn., in 1792, and
located at Wing’s Bay. He had learned the tanner’s trade in Connecticut,
and soon after his arrival here built a tannery, said to have been the first
erected in the town. He soon after sold this property, however, and pur-
chased the farm now owned bythe heirs of his son, George Prindle, where he
continued both farming and tanning until his death, in 1836. Gideon was
twice married and had a family of eleven children who arrived at maturity,
three sons and two daughters of whom are now living, one, Charles D.., in
Charlotte, who has four sons. George, deceased in 1843, is represented here
by two sons, Cyrus G. and George E. Cyrus is now traveling in the Pacific
States and Territories, for the purpose of gathering botanical specimens of
the trees and plants of that region. He has the appointment of botanist of
the State of Vermont.

John Clark, from Windsor, Conn., came to Charlotte in 1793, and located
in the northwestern part of the town, on road 1, where his grandson, D. E.
Clark, now resides, and where he resided until his death, in 1827, aged seventy
years. He served the town from time to time as one of its officers, and was
a cordial neighbor and a sound adviser. His youngest son, Ammi, settled
upon the homestead and remained during his life. Judson, an older brother,
removed to Underhill soon after his marriage, and, about 1848, emigrated to
Wisconsin, where he died, September 13, 1872, aged seventy-seven years.
His son, D’Estaing, is the only representative of the family in Charlotte.

Elijah Powell, from Lanesboro, Mass., came to Charlotte in 1793, and
located upon the farm now owned by Orrin P. Read, and opposite where
Mr. Read now lives. He became a successful farmer and cleared and im-
proved a farm of several hundred acres. He was a liberal supporter of the
Baptist church, and one of the principal builders of the first house of worship
of that denomination in thistown. Of his nine children, several settled in
Charlotte, but eventually left, all but Reuben, who settled on the place now
owned by his son, Edgar S., where he remained until his death, in 1830. He
had a family of eleven children, only four of whom are now living, one only,
Edgar S., in this town.

John Thorp, a native of Ireland, came to Charlotte about 1795, and im-
mediately engaged in merchantile pursuits, at which he was quite succesful,
his being the only general store between Vergennes and Burlington. He was
also an extensive dealer in pine and oak lumber, which he shipped, by the
way of the lake, to Quebec. But just as he had succeeded in building up
an extensive and profitable business, he died, in 1799, aged only forty-three
years. His cousin, George Thorp, came to Charlotte soon. after, for the
purpose of settling John’s estate, having been appointed his executor. After

the settlement he married the widow, and continued the business a few years,
then abandoned it and turned his attention to farming, in which he was quite
successful. He lived to the ripe age of eighty-six years, remaining on the
farm his cousin first settled until his death. His children were George, Jr.,
and John G. George, Jr., married Miss Bull, of Ferrisburgh, and located on
the farm now owned by his sons, Harley and Henry. John G. married in
early life, remained with his father, and now occupies the old homestead.
Henry, another son of George, resides on road 13, and has three sons. The
eldest, Ervin H., is an assistant editor of the Rutland Herald ; the other two,
Herbert C. and Emerson A., are farming with their father.

Gideon Foot was born at Washington, Conn., March 22, 1770, and came
to Charlotte previous to 1824, locating upon the farm now owned by Mrs,
Spear. For his first wife he married Susanna Parker, by whom he had four
sons and one daughter. Subsequent to her death he married her sister,
Polly, by whom he had two sons, Charles P. and Philo P. He died March
4, 1838, aged sixty-eight years. Charles P., located on road 29, is the only
surviving member of Gideon’s family now residing in Charlotte. He was
born June 20, 1809, married Lucy A. Barton, and has had two sons and two
daughters, named respectively Wilber, Caroline, William, and Susan Ida,
The sons still reside in Charlotte. Susan Ida married Jay A. Clark, and Caro-
line died some years since.

William Pease, from Lanesboro, Mass., came to this town in 1796, locat-
ing on road 20, where he carried on a smithery. At first his estate amounted
to but four acres, which, by economy, he ultimately increased to 150 acres.
Of his eight children, two died in infancy, and only one, Mrs. Minerva Sher-
man, is now living in Charlotte, on the old homestead. Elijah, a brother of
William, came to Charlotte in 1797, and had a home with William fora
while, of whom he learned the blacksmith’s trade. He finally settled on road 36,
at the foot of Pease Mountain, where he followed farming. He left but one
son, George, residing in Charlotte, all the others having moved away in early
life. George Pease, a brother of William and Elijah, came to Charlotte with
William when he was about eleven years old. He remained with William as
his apprentice until of age. He married soon after, and located in the southern
part of the town as a blacksmith. After several years’ hard laborat his trade,
his health failed, and for a time he kept a public house in Ferrisburgh, and
owned a farm in connection with it. He finally sold his property in Ferris-
burgh, however, and bought a farm in this town, the same now occupied by
his grandson, Russell. He had a family of three children, two sons and a
daughter, and died in 1858,

Caleb Barton, from Lanesboro, Mass., came to Charlotte in 1796, and locat-
ed on the place now occupied by Mrs. William Barton. Jeremiah, his second
son, located in Charlotte, where he remained until his death. Joseph Barton
married Polly Saxton, of Ferrisburgh, April 14, 1805, and located on road 35,
upon a part of the farm nowowned by Ovette Stone. Fromthere he removed

to Four Corners, where he kept a public house fora longtime. He died June
7, 1865, aged seventy-seven years. His children were as follows: Harriet,
Aiken S., George, Mary, and Joseph, Jr.

Gad Root, also from Lanesboro, came here in 1798. He married Clemena
Loomis the following year, and located at Baptist Corners, where he engaged
in the tanning, currying and shoemaking business. About six years after,
he removed to Madrid, N. Y., where he continued the tanning business sev-
eral years, then sold out and returned to Charlotte, locating on the farm now
occupied by Mrs. Loomis Root and her son Edgar. Mr. Root was afine man,
noted for his charity and piety, and for a long time was deacon of the Con-
gregational church. His useful life was brought to a close October 19, 1843,
at the age of sixty-six years. His eldest son, Noble, born in June, 1800,
was a prominent man in Charlotte, and died here in 1872, leaving two sons,
George L. and Henry C., who now occupy his estate. Dorwin, the second
son, born June 21, 1809, located where his widow and family now reside.
Loomis, the youngest, born in 1815, resided on the homestead until his death,
in 1866.

David Cook came to Charlotte from Connecticut, in 1807, and became a
leading man of the town, holding, at different times, most of the town offices.
He died in 1857, aged seventy-six years. His three children were Mary A.,
Charles B. and Harriet P. Charles B. resides on a fine homestead in the wes-
tern part of the town. He is a prominent man, and has held many of the
town offices, and represented his townsmen in 1853 and ’54.

Leverett Sherman came to Charlotte from Connecticut, in 1808. He learned
the carpenter’s trade of his brother-in-law, Johnson Foote, and from him he
also purchased the farm now occupied by his son, Alfred W., upon which he
died, aged eighty-five years. In the war of 1812, he was employed by the
government to build barracks for the soldiers at Plattsburgh. William E.
Sherman, brother of Leverett, came here in 1811, and located upon the farm
now owned and occupied by his son, Deacon John H. Sherman, where he died
June 15, 1859.

William Higby, from Ferrisburgh, came to Charlotte, in 1819, and located
upon the farm now owned by O. C. Palmer, on road 53. He afterwards went
to live with his son, Peter V., on road 61. W. Wallace Higby, son of Peter
V., is the only representative of the family now residing in the town. He
holds the offices of town clerk and justice of the peace.

Joseph H. Jones, from Claverack, N. Y., came to Charlotte about 1822,
and located at the foot of Mt. Philo. He was the father of fourteen children,
thirteen of whom arrived at maturity. Four are nowliving, three in this town,
viz.: Smith, occupying the old homestead ; Miss Ann, living with Smith, and
Joseph. Of Smith’s children, three now reside in Charlotte ; of Joseph’s, only
one, Miss Mary E.

Thomas Whalley, from Ferrisburgh, came here in 1837, and located upon
the farm now occupied by his widow, and grandson, R. G. Whalley. His sur-

viving children in this town are two sons, Jonathan and Samuel. Thomas
died at the advanced age of eighty-nine years.

John Quinlan came to Charlotte in 1844. The first winter after he came
here he chopped wood for twenty-five cents per cord, and purchased two
hundred and twenty-four acres of land, mostly on credit. This farm, in a
course of honorable prosperity, he has added to from time to time, until he
now owns eleven hundred acres.

The Congregational Church of Charlotte, located at Charlotte Centre, was
organized January 3, 1792, at the house of Daniel Hosford, Jr., with four
members,—John Hill, Moses Yale, Daniel Hosford, Jr., and Joseph Simonds,
Rev. Daniel O. Gillett was installed as the first pastor during the same year.
The first church building, a wood structure, was erected in 1798, and gave
place to the present brick building in 1848. It will accommodate 350 per-
sons, and is valued, including grounds, at $6,000.00. The society now has
163 members, with Rev. H. B. Putnam, pastor.

The Charlotte Baptist Church, located at Baptist Four Corners, was
organized May 6, 1807, under the supervision of a council, called by the
Baptist church of Monkton, at the request of certain members of the church
residing in Charlotte, who were dismissed, by mutual consent, to form said
church, which consisted of nineteen members. Rev. Nathan Dana was the
first pastor. The first church building was erected of wood, in 1808, the
second and present one in 1840. Repairs and improvements were made in
1856, to the amount of $700, and others have been made from time to time
since, until it stands to-day a neat, pleasant little brick structure, with a
capacity for accommodating 200 persons, valued, including grounds, at
$4,000. The society has at present fifty members, with Rev. C. A. Votey,
pastor.

Lady of Mount Carmel Roman Catholic Church, \ocated at Baptist Four
Corners, was organized by Bishop DeGoesbriand, in June, 1859, with
about thirty families. The present church building, completed in 1859, isa
wood structure with accommodations for 500 persons, and is valued, including
grounds, etc, at $5,000. The society has about six hundred communicants,
under the pastoral charge of Rev. Father Perlidon, pastor.

The Charlotte Methodist Episcopal Church, \ocated at Charlotte Four Cor-
ners, was organized in 1801, by Rev. Ebenezer Washburn. The first church
edifice was of wood, commenced in 1819, and completed in 1823. In 1837,
it was burned down, together with the parsonage, which stood upon the same
ground occupied by the district parsonage destroyed by fire seven years pre-
vious. The present brick church was built in 1840.
TOWN OF COLCHESTER, 179

 

(COLCHESTER, one of the northern lake towns of the county, is located

js Just oorth of the city of Burlington, in lat. 44° 33’ and long. 3° 59’,
¢? bounded north by Milton, east by Essex, south by the city of Burlington
and town of South Burlington, and west by Lake Champlain. It was one of
the New Hampshire grants, receiving its charter June 7, 1763, by which it
was entitled to the usual 23,040 acres ; but owing to the irregular indenture
of its lake shore, and the amount covered by Mallett’s Bay, it was found to
have a land area of only about 20,000 acres. The grant was made to Ed-
ward Burling and sixty-six associates, among whom were nine others by the
name of Burling, from which fact it is supposed that this town was intended
to have been named Burlingtown, or Burlington, but that through some mis-
take the name was given to the town on the south.

The surface of Colchester is moderately rolling, though possessing tracts of
level intervale land, with some portions containing quite extensive bluffs. Its
scenery is very picturesque and charming, though lacking the grand moun-
tain prospects of some of the other towns of the county; but the fine lake
scene presented from the vicinity of Mallett’s Bay, the deep rocky canons of
the Winooski, and the broad, verdant meadows of the level intervale land,
will perhaps compensate for what is lacking of the sublime, and charm the
senses of the lover of the beautiful in nature, while to the muse of history, an
ample field is opened for speculation by the numerous relics of the misty
past that have been found—relics of a day that is at present pre-historic.
(See page 61.)

The Winooski River forms the southern boundary of the town, a stream
possessing an exceedingly romantic and picturesque valley, and a history
replete with tragedy and romance, the very etymology of its name being
almost a “fossil poem.” (See pages 37 and 95.) The Lamoille River flows
through a portion of the northwestern part of the territory, another noble
stream, described on page 38. The only other streams of importance are
Mallett’s Creek, and Pond, Indian, and Sunderland Brooks. Mallett’s Creek
tises in Milton and flows a southwesterly course through Colchester, empty-
ing into Mallett’s Bay. Indian Brook rises in the western part of Essex,
flows a westerly course through the central part of this town, also falling into
Mallett’s Bay, on the farm now owned by Noah Thompson. Its name is
derived from the Indians having run their canoes up the stream, and thence
crossed into New Hampshire on their numerous marauding expeditions.
Sunderland Brook, so named from Peleg Sunderland, who at an early day
was lost in the valley of the Winooski, and cared for and preserved from
starvation by the Indians, also rises in the western part of Essex, and flows a
westerly course across the southern part of Colchester, emptying into Winooski
River. These several streams contain some good mill sites, and afford
ample irrigation to the land. There are also two small ponds in the town-
ship, one containing about three acres, located upon the level plain in the
180 TOWN OF COLCHESTER.

 

southwestern part of the town. Itis very deep in the center, and is fed by sub-
terranean springs, which pass off by a running stream from the surface. The
other lies farther north, in the eastern part of the town, and contains about
sixty acres. At its outlet the works of the beaver are still visible.

The soil of Colchester is variegated. It has a portion of sandy loam,
originally covered with white and pitch-pine forests, adapted to the raising of
Indian corn, rye, buckwheat, and roots for stock and cullinary purposes. The
main portion of its soil, however, is a gravelly and slaty loam, intermixed with
clay in some localities, and originally covered with hardwood timber, beech
and maple, oak, walnut, basswood, elm, birch, and in some places intermingled
with hemlock. These lands lie for the most part in low ridges, with a
rolling surface, are very fertile, and well adapted to grazing, wheat, oats,
potatoes, etc. The town, as a general thing, is also well suited to the growth
of the fruits of our climate,—such as the apple, pear, various kinds of grapes,
plums, cherries, and other small fruits,—especially upon the bay and lake
shore. The whole border of the Winooski is lined with rich alluvial flats,
some of great breadth, which produce large quantities of hay and grain.

The principal rock entering into the geological formation of the town is
red sandrock, extending in a north and south direction through the central
portion of the territory. West of this range are two small beds of Utica and
Hudson River slates, containing several quarries of variegated marbles. East
of it, extending to the eastern line of the town, the formation is the Aolian
limestone, or marble, containing some excellent varieties. There are also
some small beds of plocene tertiary deposit, and Georgia and clay slates.
But few minerals of value have been discovered. Brown hematite has been
quarried to some extent in the northeastern section of the town, and taken
across the lake to mix with the oar of that region; but for some years the
quarry has been abandoned. Magnetic iron ore, in the form of sand, is found
in large quanities on the beach north of Clay Point, and a bed of bog ore,
in the southern part of the town, was worked to some extent in the early
settlement of the town, but has long since gone out of use.

The Central Vermont Railroad passes through the southeastern part of
the town, with a station at Winooski village, and in the eastern part of the
town, at Colchester.

In 1880, Colchester had a population of 4,421, was divided into thirteen
school districts, and contained twelve common schools, employing three male
and seventeen female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $2,239.15. There
were 658 scholars attending common schools, while the entire cost of the
schools for the year, ending October 31st, was $2,633.24. A. S. Barton was
superintendent of schools.

WinooskI, a post village, and one of the most important in the county,
is located in the southern part of the town, upon the Winooski River,
which affords an extensive water-power at this point. The village lies prin-
cipally upon two streets, Mallett’s Bay avenue and Main street, the former
TOWN OF COLCHESTER. 181

extending in a northwesterly and southeasterly direction, meeting with Main
street near the river, while the latter tends off towards the northeast.
These are crossed at right angles by numerous others. The water-power
afforded by the falls early attracted attention, and Ira Allen erected mills
thereon as early as 1787. A settlement sprang up about old Fort Frederick,
which for a long time was called Allen’s Settlement. Gradually, however, it
assumed the dignity and proportions of a village, known as Winooski Falls,
and finally was incorporated as plain Winooski village, by an act of the leg-
islature, in 1866. It was then divided into three wards, designated as East,
West, and South wards. The South ward lies between the railroad track and
the river, while the East and West wards are divided by Main street. The
trustees and other officers were to be elected annually by ballot, if called for,
by a general vote of the qualified electors of the village. The officers so elected
were to hold office “for one year, or until others were elected in their places.”
In 1880, the act of incorporation was amended, so that “hereafter the legal
voters of each of the three wards of said village, at its annual meeting for the
election of officers, shall elect two of the trustees and one of the fire wardens
of said village, instead of by general vote as previously provided by law.”

The village now has a population of about 3,000, a number of extensive
manufacturing interests, several good business blocks, one hotel, four churches
(M. E., Episcopal, and two Roman Catholic), and the necessary public and
private buildings to constitute a thriving and prosperous community. As
early as the latter part of the last century there were large forges and iron-
works erected, employing a large number of men, while the business of lum-
bering was quite extensive. After crossing the old covered bridge, say about
the year 1818, the two majn streets, or roads, were the same in position as
now, while there were but two others—one leading near the river on the
right, where there were the saw-mills and a few houses near them, and the
other leading to the left. On the right side of Main street, after crossing the
bridge above the hotel, all the land where the stores and shops on that side
now are, extending to the corner of, and quite a distance on, Allen street,
and also down to the road near the river, was a tract of land known as the
“ Allen property.” A large, rambling old house, then much out of repair,
stood upon the premises, fronting on Main street, and having a large piazza
overlooking the river. Surrounding it was an extensive garden, reaching nearly
the whole length of Allen street, or as far as the Bently house, including the
property owned by Mr. Dike, Mr. Kidder, and others of the present time.
This was the old house of Ira Allen, he who did so much for Winooski, Bur-
lington, and, indeed, for the whole State.

Another place well known to old residents is the Weaver house, so-called,
situated near the railroad bridge. It was first the property of Col. Rice,
who came here from Boston in 1818. It is said he was an officer in the war
for independence, and in manners and character was a true Christian gentle-
man. He died at Burlington many years since. One of his daughters be-

came the first wife of Judge Foot, of Burlington, and a granddaughter was
the wife of President Torry, of the University of Vermont, while some of his
great-grandchildren now are residents of Burlington. Mr. Weaver purchased
the Rice estate, the land extending to where the Winooski Block now stands,
but not including the present residences of James Platt, H. Barrett or Dr.
Richardson. On the corner of Main and Allen streets, Mr. Weaver built a
store, where he long sold groceries, provisions, etc. He was a public-spirited
man, full of business energy. Some time before his death he sold the store
building, which was removed to make room for the Winooski Block. The
village, however, has had some misfortunes in the form of fire and flood. In
addition to the loss of private dwellings, the machine shops have been burned
and rebuilt three times. The bridge and dams were also swept off by the
great flood of July, 1830, and at the same time the old oil-mill, grist-mill,
carding machine, saw-mill and dam, erected by Judge Buel, of Burlington, at
a cost of about $30,000.00. These stood upon the opposite side of the river,
about three-quarters of a mile above the falls, at the bottom of the deep
gorge, opposite the point of land between the railroad bridges—they were
raised by the flood from their foundations some thirty feet, and, after playing
around for a few moments in the whirling and trembling eddy, were dashed
down the narrow channel between the island and the high bluffs that form the
shore. This flood, the most remarkable since the settlement of the county,
rose some fifty feet in height over the intervales above the high bridge, and
swept off several buildings. One barn was chained to the branches of a large
elm tree, and thus saved from being dashed in pieces at the narrows below.

COLCHESTER CENTRE (Colchester p. 0.), a post village, located about three-
quarters of a mile west of Colchester depot, contains three churches (Baptist,
Congregational and Methodist Episcopal), one store, three blacksmith shops,
and about twenty-three dwellings.

Mattet?’s Bay Posrorrice, located on road 34, was established February
1, 1882, with Alex. C. Morrison as its first postmaster.

The Burlington Woolen Company.—The mills of this company, located on
the bank of the river, just west of the bridge at Winooski village, were estab-
lished under an act of incorporation approved November 1o, 1835, the com-
pany being organized December 15th of that year, with Samuel Hickok, pres-
ident, and Carlos Baxter, secretary and treasurer. Work was commenced in
1836, with thirty looms, employiny 150 hands. From this time until Decem-
ber 5, 1851, the mills were in operation most of the time, though the finan-
cial results were disastrous to those engaged in the enterprise, for about this
time it became necessary for the property to be disposed of at sheriff’s sale.
Harding Bros., the purchasers, were experienced manufacturers from Massa-
chusetts, who sanhned the business until 1861, when it was purchased by
the present company, incorporated with a capital of $200,000.00. Hon. E.
R. Mudge, of Boston, was chosen president, and still retains the position.
Joshua Stetson, of Boston, was elected treasurer, and was succeeded by
TOWN OF COLCHESTER. 183

 

 

Trewsdel Sawyer, of Boston. F. C. Kennedy was appointed secretary. The
company immediately instituted extensive repairs, until the mills now cover
an area of two and one-half acres, and consume 1,400,000 pounds of wool
per annum, manufacturing about 800,000 yards of cloth, and giving employ-
ment to 700 operatives. Mr. Frederick C. Kennedy, the agent of the cor-
poration, under whose supervision all the enlargements and improvements of
the mills have been made, came to its office as an accountant in 1856, and after
four years of office labor succeeded to the management and secretaryship of
the corporation. In direct antithesis to the prevailing opinion that a person
must be educated to a business in order to be successful, Mr. Kennedy has
succeeded in building up and maintaining these mills to a degree of success
seldom attained. All through the depressions in manufacture of the past
twenty years, he has maintained their operation with signal regularity, thus
assuring to the laboring class a permanent dependence, one of the most de-
sirable features of domestic manufacture.

 

(EDWARDS, STEVENS & CO.’S FOUNDRY AND MACHINE SHOP.)

Edwards, Stevens & Co.—In 1858, A. B. Edwards and A. J. Stevens
bought the land and water-power at Winooski village, now owned by the
above mentioned firm, who employ a large number of men in the manufac-
ture of mill gearing and shafting, iron and brass castings and wood working
machinery. ‘There were then no buildings on the premises, as all had been
destroyed by fire the year previous. They immediately erected a one-story
wood structure and commenced a general machine and job business.
In 1868, Mr. F. Jubell purchased a one-eight interest, since which time the
shops have been kept in operation by the above firm. Their present
machine shop is 180x50 feet, with an “L,” 40x50 feet, and has attached a
wood and pattern shop r1oxso feet, and a foundry 60x45 feet, together with
large lumber sheds, store-houses, etc., to accommodate their extensive

business.

T. A. Doubleday's furniture manufactory.—This extensive enterprise,
located at Winooski village, was established in 1873, under the title of Double-
day, Hall & Co. In 1877, this firm was. dissolved, and business continued
by the present proprietor. He uses 1,000,000 feet of lumber annually,
mostly ash and basswood, in the manufacture of cottage furniture, his busi-
ness amounting to about $75,000.00 per year.

The Winooski Gold and Silver Plating Works, located on Canal street,
were established by their present owner, Mr. David Mitchell, in 1864. He
employs twelve men, and has his principal office on College street, in Bur-
lington.

The Winooski Lumber and Water-power Company, located at the village,
was established in 1868. It at present employs about twenty men and
manufactures 1,500,000 feet of lumber per year.

Walker, Hatch & Co.'s sash and blind manufactory was established at
Burlington, in 1874, by the present proprietors. In the fall of 1879, they
removed to Winooski village, where they have since conducted the business.
They employ fifteen hands and do a business of about $14,000.00 per an-
num. They are also agents for the Burlington Spoke Company, located here.

The Winooski Brick Yard, located on Mallett’s Bay avenue, was estab-
lished by Francis LeClair, in 1873. It gives employment to eight men, who
manufacture 800,000 brick per annum. Mr. LeClair is also proprietor of the
Burlington Brick Yard, located on Winooski avenue, which employs fifteen
men and turns out 1,000,000 brick per year.

Thompson's Mills, engaged in the manufacture of lumber, flour, cider and
shingles, located on road 27, were erected in 1871, by R. B. Thompson. The
site was originally occupied by a mill erected at an early date, by William and
Hezekiah Hine, and destroyed by fire in 1870. They at present use a circu-
lar saw, cutting 150,000 feet of lumber per year. The cider mill has a
capacity for turning out thirty-two barrels of cider per day, while the grist-
mill has one run of stones.

The Colchester Butter and Cheese Factory, located on road 28, was built
in 1870. It employs two men and uses the milk from 300 cows.

The Wakefield Variegated Marble Company, \ocated on road 34, are ex-
tensively engaged in producing the beautiful variety of marble known as
Mallett’s Bay marble. It is used principally for furniture tops, and for dec-
orating buildings. Mr. A. S. Baxter is manager of the company.

The Town Poor Farm, located on road 29, contains 180 well cultivated
acres. There are at present nine persons receiving its bounty. It is under
the charge of Porter D. Mitchell.

The Winooski Savings Bank, \ocated on Allen street, was incorporated in
1869. It is a purely savings institution, with the following list of officers:
S. H. Weston, president ; H. W. Barrett, vice-president; and Ormand Cole,

treasurer. The bank has met with uniform success since the first of its
organization.
TOWN OF COLCHESTER. 185

Dunbar's ffotel, located at the junction of roads 44 and 45, was built by
Arad Merrill, in 1830, and kept by him about twelve years, when he was
succeeded by his son, Andrew J. In 1878, it was purchased by Mr. Dunbar,
who has been its proprietor since. It is a neat, two and one-half story
building, modern in all its appointments. Since Mr. Dunbar came into
possession, he has established the Burlington Driving Park, containing one of
the best tracks in the State. His extensive experience in hotel-keeping,
together with his uniform gentlemanly manner, renders the hotel a desirable
one.

The Mallett’s Bay House,a summer resort located on road 33, has accom-
modations for seventy-five persons. The locality affords extra facilities for
boating, fishing, duck shooting, etc. It is at present under the management
of William B. Craven, who has succeeded in making the house extremely
popular.

The first persons who took possession under the charter of Colchester were
Ira Allen and his cousin, Remember Baker, in the fall of 1772. In the
spring of 1773, Baker brought his family into town, consisting of his wife and
three children, which was the first English family that ever settled in the
town of which we have any account. Allen was young, unmarried, and lived
with them as a member of the family. As a means of protection against
Indian depredations, and defence against the “ Yorkers,” the first thing they
did was to construct a block-house, or fort. This was built on the north
bank of the river, on the highest ground, from six to eight rods east of the
present falls bridge. The greater part of the ground on which it stood has
since slid off into the river and been washed away. It was constructed of
hewn timber, two stories high, with thirty-two port-holes in the upper story,
and was furnished with arms and ammunition, and named Fort Frederick.
During the same year they cut a road from Castleton to Colchester, a dis-
tance of about seventy miles. (See page 133.) At this time there were no
settlements in Burlington or any other part of the county, except some
“Yorkers” who had located on Shelburne Point, and who were suffered to
remain on the promise that they would “ behave.”

A clearing was made about the fort, in which Baker and his family resided.
Two clearings were also made on the intervale below the falls, it is supposed,
by Joseph Fuller and Henry Colvin, and one at Mallett’s Bay, on the farm
lately known as the Newton farm, by a man by the name of Monte. In
1775, Joshua Stanton commenced a clearing on the intervale above the falls,
and Abe! Hulburt, Abel Benedict, and Capt. Thomas Darwin, all made pur-
chases of farms on the intervales below the falls. In the meantime, a mys-
terious person by the name of Mallett, a Frenchman, resided on Mallett’s
Head, but who he was, and where he came from, and when and by what
authority he settled there, we have no account. Most certain it is, however,
that he was there previous to the Revolution, and during its progress, claim-
ing allegiance to no nation, but keeping a hotel for British and Continental,

spy and smuggler alike. He died at an advanced age, in 1790. The clear-
ing about his house had the appearance of being very ancient, and must have
been commenced much earlier than the date of the charter. (See page 61.)

For seven years, from the spring of 1776, the town was abandoned by all
the settlers, save by the venerable Capt. Mallett, as he was called. After
the close of the war, in 1783, Messrs. McClain, Law, and Boardman settled
on Colchester Point, and Ira Allen and most of the former settlers returned
and resumed their settlement at the falls. Allen, on his return, to promote
the interests of the place and give value to his large landed estate, com-
menced an active business, rebuilding the upper dam, erecting mills, a forge
ana a shop for manufacturing anchors, so that the place soon assumed the
appearance of a considerable village.

The first proprietors’ meeting was held at Fort Frederick, June 1, 1774,
at which Ira Allen was moderator. The first county court ever held in the
county was also held at Allen’s house, in November, 1785, at which time Ad-
dison and Colchester were half shires of the county of Addison, which then
extended to the north line of the State. The town was organizéd in 1791,
though the first town meeting on record was held March 18, 1793, when
Joshua Stanton was chosen moderator; Joshua Stanton, Jr., clerk; Joshua
Stanton, John Law, and Thomas Hill, selectmen ; Joshua Stanton, treasurer;
and William Munson, constable. The first representative was Thomas But-
terfield, who married the widow of Remember Baker, chosen in 178s, and he
was also the first justice of the peace, appointed in 1787. Of this first list of
officers, Stanton, Law and Munson became quite prominent in the county.
Joshua Stanton was three years judge of Chittenden County Court, one of
the original corporators of the University of Vermont, and nine years a mem-
ber of the corporation. His son, Joshua, Jr., was for two years second judge of
the County court, and also a liberal patron of the University. John Law
came from New London, Conn., settling on the Point. Although a some-
what eccentric individual, he was possessed of fine talents and a liberal edu-
cation. In 1793, he was sent from this town as a delegate to the State con-
vention at Windsor, to consider the proposed amendments to the constitu-
tion, and was six years judge of the county court. William Munson was a
successful, enterprising business man. He came to the town with no capital,
first tending saw-mill for Ira Allen, then bought a small farm, went into the
lumbering business, purchased and cleared up lands, and thus accumulated a
large property, and added much to the general improvement of the town.

Ira Allen has been mentioned so often throughout the body of the work,
and is an historical character so generally known, that an extended notice of
his life, in the few brief biographies our space allows, would be superfluous.
Suffice it to say, then, he bore a distinguished part in the early affairs of Ver-
mont. He was the youngest of seven brothers, of whom Ethan Allen was
the oldest, and was born at Cornwall, Conn., Mays, 1751. In his youth he
received a good English education, was an early practical surveyor, and, in

later years, a clear and forcible writer in politics and history. Hewas scarcely
twenty-one years of age when he became the proprietor of lands under the
New Hampshire charters, and from the year 1772, when he first came to Col-
chester, was active and earnest in his opposition to the New York patentees.
On almost all occasions during the Revolutionary period, he acted, either
alone or with others, as agent of the State in the transactions with the Conti-
nental Congress and with the governments of New Hampshire and New York,
and was also one of the founders of the University. In addition to his other
various talents, he was an author of some merit, having written several works,»
among which was a history of Vermont. Notwithstanding all this, however,
certain of his transactions brought him into disfavor with the government. After
a few years residence in Colchester he removed to Irasburgh, Vt., and dur-
ing the latter years of his life resided in Philadelphia, Pa., where he died,
January 7, 1814. After his death his widow occupied the house at Winooski
village, mentioned on a previous page.

Remember Baker, Allen’s cousin, whose active and earnest opposition to
the New York claimants, in connection with Allen, Warner nd others, are
well-known facts of general history, was born at Woodbury, Conn., in 1737.
He was a cousin to the Allen brothers, his father being a brother of their
mother. He served asa soldier at Lakes Georze and Champlain, in the
French war, and had thus acquired a knowledge of the lands on his route
there and in their vicinity. He settled at Arlington, in 1764, and built, in the
eastern part of that town, the first grist-mill on the New Hampshire Grants
north of Bennington. After an attempt of Justice Munro, on the part of
the Yorkers, to take him to Albany jail under the outlawry act, when he was
treated with great harshness, he appears to have been generally desirous of
inflicting severer punishment on the Yorkers than most of his companions.
He was with Ethan Allen, holding the rank of captain, at the taking of Ticon-
deroga, May 10, 1775, and, in August following, being sent by Gen. Mont-
gomery to reconnoiter the enemy’s position at St. Johns, he was shot by an
Indian. At some distance this side of St. Johns, he landed and concealed
his boat, and was about proceeding on foot, when he saw that his boat was
already in possession of some of the Indians. He hailed them and demand-
ed his boat, but as they paid no regard to the demand, he drew up his gun,
but it missed fire, and at the next instant hereceived a shot through the head
from one of the Indians in the boat, and fell dead upon the spot. His com-
panions then fled, and made their way back by land with the sad intelligence.
His widow subsequently became the wife of Thomas Butterfield, the first rep-
resentative of Colchester.

Nathaniel Collins, one of the early settlers of the town, was born in Con-
necticut, in 1763, and at the age of twenty years immigrated to Burlington
with his wife’s father, Stephen Lawrence. The settlement of Winooski then
consisted of a couple of houses and a saw-mill. By his first wife, Elizabeth
Lawrence, he had a family of twelve children, and by his second wife, Olive

carried on the blacksmithing business near the present site of the Baptist
church, at Colchester Center. Only two of his children are now living,
George H., at Elizabethtown, N. J., and Charles, located in this town on road

church edifice or house of worship existed in the town until the summer of
1838. The church at first held its Sabbath worship in a school-house, or,
when a larger place was needed, in a barn, until 1814, when the town, in
connection with the central district, built the “stone school-house,” to be
used not only for a school but for town purposes and public worship. In the
summer of 1838, the Congregational society united with the small Baptist
society and erected a commodious brick edifice, which the two societies oc-
cupied in union until 1861, when this society purchased the interest from the

the town to have an area of “23,040 acres, or a tract six miles square ;” butas
the land was divided into seventy-two shares of 330 acres each, its area is very
evidently about 23,760 acres. The document was signed by “ His Excel
lency” on the 7th day of June, 1763, and so from that day Essex dates its
birth, though its history cannot really be said to have commenced until the
inception of its first settlement, a number of years subsequent.

In surface, Essex presents a pleasing picture, a landscape of practical
utility rather than mere beauty—no mountains rear their lofty crests sky-
ward, and no dimpling lakelets deck the emerald vales. Still, there is
diversity enough to attract the beauty-loving eye, and once attracted, the
beholder cannot but remark the rare richness of the territory. The northern
and eastern portions are broken and hilly, containing some elevations of con-
siderable prominence, and all clothed with a rich verdure that affords suste-
nance to many herds of cattle. The southern, central, and western parts are
more level, sinking in some places to a swamp, where large quantities of cran-
berries grow spontaneously. On the borders of the Winooski and Brown’s
Rivers the soil is a rich alluvial deposit, while in the southern and southwestern
it issandy, and in the northern and northwestern more of a clayey formation,
cropping out occasionally in valuable clay beds suitable for manufacture into
brick. Rich deposits of muck are also found in certain localities. Taken in
general, the soil is rich and productive, with scarcely an acre that cannot be
cultivated, and the greater portion of the township is admirably adapted to
grazing purposes, and hence the farmer’s attention is principally devoted to
this branch of husbandry, causing large quantities of butter and cheese to be
exported each season, forming the principal article of commerce. Unusually
good facilities are afforded, too, for transportation of commodities, in the
several railroads which intersect here. The Winooski River forms the south-
ern boundary of the town, affording two good mill privileges, while the east-
ern and central portions are watered by Brown’s River and its several tribu-
taries. Alder brook flows through the central part, and several other smaller
streams are found in other localities.

The rocks that enter into the geological structure of the town are of the
Lolian limestone, clay slate, and talcose conglomerate formation, with their
various phases and transformations. The marble bed underlies the south-
western corner, next to which is the clay slate, a deposit about two miles in
width, extending the whole length of the town from north to south, the re-
maining portion of the territory being talcose conglomerate.

In 1880, Essex had a population of 2,111, was divided into twelve school
districts, and contained ten common schools, employing one male and four-
teen female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $1,441. There were 486
pupils attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools for the
year, ending October 31st, was $1,959.15.

Essex JUNCTION, a post village located in the southwestern part of the
TOWN OF ESSEX. 195

 

town, at the junction of the various railroads which traverse the county, con-
tains two churches (Baptist, and union of the M. E. and Cong.), a paper-
mill, butter tub factory, saw and grist-mill, marble shop, a nursery, eight
stores, four blacksmith shops, one wheelwright shop, one paint shop, two
livery stables, two hotels, a graded school, village hall, extensive brick manu-
factory, etc.

Essex CENTRE (Essex p. 0.), a post village located in the central part of
the town, contains four churches (M. E., Baptist, Cong., and Universalist),
Essex Classical Institute, a district school, two stores, one hotel, a blacksmith
shop, one wagon shop, a dressmaker shop and millinery store, and about 150
inhabitants.

J. K. Drury & Son's brick yard, located on road 41, is probably one of
the most extensive brick manufactories in the State. The works were estab-
lished in 1868, by J. B. Drury, and seem to have everything furnished at hand by
nature. Indian brook passes through the center of the yard, and upon one
side of it are beds of excellent clay, while on the other side the sand for its
manufacture into brick is found in abundance. Four mills are used in grind-
ing the clay, fifty men employed, and the annual product is 4,000,000 brick.
Mr. Drury has constructed a branch track from the C. V. R. R., uniting near
the Junction depot, so that his goods may be loaded upon the cars right at
the yard.

J. W. Truax, located at Essex Junction, is engaged in the manufacture of
his Green Mountain water-wheel, patented in 1860. He does an extensive
business, and employs a number of men.

Hunter & Shilanad’s paper-mill, located at Essex Junction, is operated by
water-power, and has, in addition, four engines for grinding stock. All of
their machinery is of the most modern style, enabling them to do first-class
work. They employ twenty hands, and manufacture one and one-half tons
of paper per day.

W. B. Johnson's grist-mill, also located at Essex Junction, is operated by
water-power, has four runs of stones, and employs four men. It grinds annu-
ally 2,500 bushels of wheat, 30,000 bushels of corn, 5,000 bushels of oats,
and 5,000 bushels of buckwheat, besides 30,000 bushels of custom grinding.

The Marble Works at Essex Junction were established by Snyder &
Brownell, in 1864. Mr. M. L. Snyder bought out Mr. Brownell, in 1867,
since which time he has operated the business alone. He subsequently
added the manufacture of granite, and now does a gereral business in both
lines, employing five men.

The Central House, a fine hotel located at Essex Junction, was opened by
the present proprietor, Edward O. Joslyn, May 1, 1882, a gentleman of large
experience as a hotel keeper. This location offers superior inducements to
summer boarders, on account of the many pleasant drives, being only ten
miles from Mount Mansfield, and the excellent opportunities for gunning,

trout fishing, etc.

The Junction House, another hotel of equal merit, is located at the village,
with Truman Hunt, proprietor.

Of the sixty-four grantees of the township of Essex, none, it is believed,
ever located within its limits. And notwithstanding the charter was granted
as early as 1763, no settlements were made, and the tract remained studded
with stately forest monarchs, with none to disturb their quietude, until 1783,
when, in the spring of that year, Samuel Smith, William Smith, Jonathan
Winchell, Dubartis Willard, and David Hall, came on from Massachusetts.
and commenced a settlement. Thus the history of the town may properly
be said to date from that spring, a quiet, even, uneventful history though itis,
Steadily and quietly the town has increased in power and importance, and
quietly, one by one, its waving grain fields and smiling meadows have come
into existence, as the forest receded before the onslaught of the sturdy wood-
man. Again we say, the history of Essex is an uneventful one. No Milton
or Pope first opened their eyes on the pleasant hills and dales, and no Porter
or Nelson have closed their eyes here to a sleep beneath its clay. Indeed,
the Essex man cannot boast of even a Douglass or a Horace Greeley asa
native of their town ; but they caz claim two thousand honest, loyal hearts.
that call it home, and though not blazoned forth on the banner of fame, they
point to numerous silent, well-kept graves, where rest the bodies of as many
heroes, whose noble souls went up in the smoke of battle, a sacrifice to pre-
serve their country’s unity. Pioneers came in slowly after a settlement was
once commenced, so that at the taking of the first census, in 1791, it had
354 inhabitants. In 1786, it was considered that the population was suffi-
ciently large to warrant its organization by the election of proper town
officers, so a meeting was called on the 22d of March of that year, at which
Elkanah Billings was chosen clerk; Abram Stevens, constable ; Dubartis
Willard, Justin Day, and Joel Woodworth, selectmen. The first justices
were Joel Woodworth and Timothy Bliss, chosen in 1787. The first repre-
sentative was Dubartis Willard, in 1786. Frances Hall was the first person
born, August 23, 1783, and Eli Smith, who lived to a very advanced age, the
first male born November 19, 1784.

Upon the banks of the Winooski, just within the limits of the town, Samuel
Smith and his associates located, putting up the first log house, felling the first
tree, and planting the first grain. At a later period, upon the borders of
Brown’s River, Joel Woodworth settled, and kept what is supposed to have
been the first “tavern” in town. Farther down the stream, Timothy Bliss
Abel Castle, James Pelton, Dea. Samuel Bradley, Dea. Ingraham, Jonathan
Bixby, Nathan and Jabez Woodworth, James Keeler, and James Gates were
among the first settlers in the eastern part of the town, occupying the fertile
intervales that border that stream. On the west side of the stream, on the
road now leading to the center of the town, Stephen Butler and Caleb Olds
settled. Dea. Daniel Morgan settled a little north of Dea. Watkins, on the
opposite side of the road, Capt. Morgan Noble onthe Case farm, Col. Stephen
TOWN OF ESSEX. 197

Noble on the Herrick farm, and Ezra Woodworth and Mr. Bryant still farther
north. Col. Noble kept a store in the same house at avery early day. In
the northern and western portions of the town, Samuel Griffin, Averill Griffin,
Ezra Slater, Jonathan Chipman, Brascom Perrigo, David, George, and
Zuriel Tyler, Benton Buck, Ezra Baker, and Henry Slater, were among
the first settlers. South from Page’s Corners Capt. Simeon Tubbs,
the Bassetts, David Kellogg, Asahel Nash, Dea. Samuel Buell, and
Esquire Knickerbocker were the early settlers. At what was afterwards
known as Butler’s Corners, from the fact of men of that name doing
business there, Justin Day and Calvin Beard first settled. At this place the
sign-post and “stocks” were erected, in 1800, by town legislation. In those
days the sign-post was quite an important public officer, for upon him was
posted all the notices of warrants, sales, meetings, etc., making him quite a
gossipy public character. The first settlement at Page’s Corners, so-called
from Samuel Page, whose industry and enterprise built it up and made it a
place of considerable business, was made by James Blin, followed by John
and Stephen Reed. John kept a tavern here at an early date, and after him
Curtis Holgate. Here, too, the first store in town was kept, by Bazzel Stew-
art, in 1795, and here also the first postoffice was established. Ralph Rice
was appointed postmaster, but on his refusing to accept the position Samuel
Farrar was appointed in his stead. In a few years, however, the office was
abandoned, and none kept in the town for a period of nearly twenty years.
In 1825 or ’26, the office was re-established at Butler’s Corners, and Roswell
Butler appointed postmaster. In 1838 or ’39, the office was removed to the
center of the town, and Irad C. Day appointed postmaster. Ralph Rice,
who received the first appointment of postmaster, was one of the early mer-
chants in the town, and largely engaged in the manufacture of potash, which
he marketed in Montreal. This was a comparatively lucrative trade when
settlers were clearing off their land and ashes were plenty.

Almost the entire business of the town was for a long time transacted at
this Corner. ‘Town tmeetings were held here and at the meeting-house alter-
nately from 1805 to 1813, when they were permanently located at the Center.
The first building erected at the Center stood on the southeast corner of the
common, and was built by Samuel Pelton. Mr. Pelton also erected a mill
a few rods west of the present mill. Alder Brook was then a small, shallow
stream emptying into Brown’s River. Mr. Pelton diverted it from its natural
course, carrying the water in a plank flume to his saw-mill. But in the great
freshet of 1830, the little brook became a mighty current, cut for itself a new
channel, deep and broad, and forced its way along over all obstacles until it
joined the Winooski, miles away from its original mouth, The second house
erected at the Center was the one occupied by Joel Woodworth as a tavern
at an early day, and stood on the northern side of the common. This house
was a remarkable one for those days, being made of pine logs, nicely hewn,
and set up endwise. “In April, 1796, the first school district was formed, and

embraced all the northeastern part of the town, or that portion north of the
original mouth of Alder Brook. The school-house stood near where James
Gates then lived, and was the second school-house in the town, The first
was located on Brown’s River, near Jericho, and was taught in 1788, by an
Englishman named James Finch. In 1794, a committee was appointed by
the town to take measures to clear the ground sequestered for the purpose of
burying the dead. The eastern portion of it was first cleared and was most
used. The first bodies interred here were those of Isaac Noble and a daughter
of Capt. Morgan Noble. Here rest the bodies of most of the early settlers,
side by side with their children. The cemetery at the Junction was not com-
menced until a later day. The ground for the same was donated by ——
Lary, and afterwards quit-claimed to the town by Abram Stevens. The first
person buried here was an elderly man by the name of Story. The first
marriage recorded as taking place in town was that of Asa Town and Mabel
Andrews. They were married by Nathan Castle, June 11,1795. The first
deaths, those of Remember and Ruth Tubbs, March 21, 1788.

ing, among which may be mentioned a portion of the American House, the
Buell house on Pearl street, the old Sawyer Tavern now used by Strong &
Co. as a hardware store, and many others. After a few years’ residence

The Congregational Church, located at Essex Center, was organized Octo-
ber 3, 1797, by Rev. Jedediah Bushnell, with the following members: Daniel
Morgan, Timothy Bliss, Joshua Basset, Morgan Noble, David Kellogg,
Samuel Buell, Stephen Butler, Zerviah Bliss, Eleanor Kellogg, and Rachel
Buell. Rev. Asoph Morgan was the first settled minister. The first house
of worship was built of wood about the year 1800, and gave place to the
present brick structure in 1840. It has a seating capacity for about 250 per-
sons, and cost $4,000.00. The society now has 1oo members, with Rev.
John Cowan, pastor.

The First Baptist Church, located at Essex Center, was organized in 1801,
by the Baptist church of Westford, with six members. Rev. David Hulburd
was the first pastor. The church building, a wood structure, was erected in
1822, repaired in 1839 and 1869. It will accommodate 250 persons, and is
valued at $3,500.00. The society now has 114 members, under the pastoral
care of Rev. I. W. Coombs, and sustains a Sabbath school with an average
attendance of seventy-five.

The First Universalist Church, located at Essex Center, was organized by
its first pastor, Rev. Joseph Sargent, in 1857. The church building was
erected in 1859, of wood, will seat 300 persons, and cost $1,200.00. The
pastor of the society is Rev. George S. Sargent.

202 TOWN OF HINESBURGH.

 

SPC NESBURGH, located in the southern part of the county, in lat. 44°
‘ase tg, and long. 3° 57’, bounded north by Shelburne, St. George and
Richmond, east by Huntington and Starksboro, south by Starksboro

and Monkton, in Addison County, and west by Charlotte, was granted by New
Hampshire, June 24, 1762, to David Ferris, Abel Hine and sixty-three
others, mostly resident in New Milford, Conn., the said Hine acting for many
years as proprietors’ clerk, hence the name ‘“Hinesburgh.” In outline the
town is very regular, its boundary lines being each six miles in length, form-
ing a perfect square, and enclosing a tract whose area is just thirty-six square
miles, or 23,040 acres. This area, too, it has retained since the original
survey, no changes ever having been made as in most of the adjoining towns.
In surface, Hinesburgh presents as fair a contour as it does in outline.
Through the center of the town, nearly in a north and south direction, there
extends a bed of clay s/ate underlying the soil, having a mean width of
about half a mile. This ledge, or vein of rocks, seems to be the dividing
line between what might be termed the low land of the west, and the
high land of the east; for west of this line the surface is low, having
an altitude of from 300 to 500 feet above the lake level, while east of it
the surface rapidly rises in large and broken ridges to a height of 1,200
to 2,000 feet, though mostly covered with a strong, arable soil, making
very good dairy farms. The soil of this western portion is principally clay,
very fertile, and capable of producing excellent crops of grain, while that of
the eastern portion is a sandy or gravelly loam, equally rich. Along the
principal streams are tracts of intervale, possessing an alluvial soil seldom
surpassed in richness. Numerous streams and springs abound, affording
ample irrigation for the soil, and containing many good mill sites. The
principal water-courses, however, are Lewis Creek and LaPlotte Riven
Lewis Creek being the largest stream in town. Near the southeastern cor-
ner of the township the mountainous ridge is cut from summit to base by a
chasm from a quarter to a half mile in width, through which flows, from
Huntington, a branch of Lewis Creek. The LaPlotte rises in the south-
eastern part of the town, flows a northwesterly course, and is joined near the
village by Pond Brook, from the northeastern part of the town, and thence
flows on through Charlotte and Shelburne into Shelburne Bay. An _ interest-
ing tradition relative to the origin of its name is current, which may be found
noted in the Shelburne sketch. Two small ponds are found in the northem
part of the town, one lying partly in Williston. The rocks are principally
Lolian limestone and talcose conglomerate, though there is a large bed of red
sandrock underlying the southwestern portion of the territory. With these
exceptions, all the rocks of the western part of the town, up to the bed of
clay slate previously mentioned, are composed of limestone of the Eolian or
marble formation, though no quarries suitable for working have been dis
covered. The whole eastern portion is composed of ¢alcose conglomerate, cut
by a large bed of guartz rock, lying in the northeastern part of the township.
TOWN OF HINESBURGH. 203

 

 

In 1880, Hinsburgh had a population of 1,330, and contained thirteen
common schools, employing three male and sixteen female teachers, to whom
was paid an aggregate salary of $1,840.25. There were 327 pupils attending
common school, while the entire cost of the schools for the year, ending
October 31, was $2,070.57, with Mr. C. G. Peck, superintendent. In addi-
tion to these, the town also has an excellent school known as Hinesburgh
Academy. This institution was established and incorporated by an act of
the legislature, November 12, 1824. Under this act the trustees organized and
opened a school which has continued without interruption to the present
time, and has been one of the most permanent and successful institutions of
the kind in the State. The building is a commodious, two-story structure,
situated on a rise of land in the center of the village, above and back from
the west side of the street, and fronted by a luxuriant grove of maples and
locusts. The building is in good repair and furnished throughout with modern
furniture, has a fine minerological collection and reference library; but the
philosophical apparatus, which had become antiquated, was disposed of in
1880, and has not yet been replaced. In 1870, the town adopted the town
system of schools, and elected a board of directors who have entire control
of the public schools. In 1871, the academy was leased to this board, on
the conditions that the school be maintained similar in grade and equal to that
maintained by the trustees in years past, and that the building, furniture,
library, and apparatus be kept in as good condition as when delivered to them.
Under the management of the school board, the character of the institution as
a fitting and training school, with but slight modifications, has remained the
same. The school has no endowment, and is supported partly by town ap-
propriations and partly by tuitions. The property, by the act of incorpora-
tion, is exempt from taxation. The present principal, Henry W. Page, under
whose charge the school has been since 1880, was educated at the University
of Vermont. Under his care the number of pupils has steadily increased
from term to term, and a revival of interest has also been manifested in the
classical department. The methods of instruction are fully up with the times,
while the moral tone of the school is excellent, and the work done, for thor-
oughness, will compare favorably with that of any similar institution.

The people of the town have always given much attention to the means of
education and general instruction. Toward this object a literary society was
formed in 1810, and became of so much importance that it was incorporated by
anact of the legislaturein 1822. Agoodlibrary was collected, which circulated
among its members, and is now kept in the office of Dr. J. F. Miles. This
society, through its library, lectures, essays, and debates, brought the leading
topics of thought in science, literature, politics, history, and religion, not only
before its members, but before the citizens of the town, and exerted a marked
influence upon the young men reared here. The functions of the society
gradually became absorbed by the academy, and about 1860, as a corporate

body, it ceased to exist. The lighter books of the library perished long ago,
but it still contains many valuable works which have a limited circulation,

HinessurGu, a post village located in the central part of the town, con-
tains four churches (Cong., M. E., Baptist, and Christian), three stores, one
tailor shop, a grist-mill, cheese-factory, hotel, a high school and Masonic hall,
and about 4oo inhabitants.

RuopE IsLanp Corners, a hamlet located in the northeastern part of the
town, near Hinesburgh Pond, received its name from the fact of its having
been originally settled by people from Rhode Island. It contains a church
and about half a dozen houses.

MECHANICSVILLE, a hamlet situated in the northern part of the town, on
Pond Brook, contains a woolen-mill, excelsior factory, grist-mill, wagon-shop,
saw-mill, cheese and butter tub factory, cider-mill, iron foundry, carding-mill,
and about twenty-eight dwellings. It was formerly called Patrick and Murray
Corners.

continued with varying degrees of success till the present time. It is now
considered the best equipped mill of its size in the State. The building is
heated and the dyeing done by steam generated in a thirty-horse power boiler,
situated in a brick addition outside of the main building. The machinery is
of the best make and most modern improvement. It has been brought to its
Present state of perfection by Isaiah Dow, he having been the sole proprietor
for the past ten years. The stream on which the mill is located is one of the
best and safest in the county. There are now a number of first-class unoc-
cupied privileges on the stream, which should call the attention of mechanics,
providing the town would bring them to their notice and give the mechanics
reasonable support and encouragement. Hinesburgh has all the natural
advantages for a large manufacturing business, and it should be developed.
Mr. Dow now employs twelve operatives and turns out annually about $39,
000.00 worth of goods.

The Union Cheese Factory, located on roads 14 and 16, built in 1871, is

owned by a stock company, who manufacture cheese from the milk of 250
cows.

The Valley Cheese Factory, was established by a stock company in
1866, It receives the milk from 300 cows, manufacturing 60,000 lbs. of
cheese annually.

Lorenzo Murray's Excelsior Manufactory, located on Pond Brook, oe
commenced in 1873, by the present proprietor. He employs three men and
manufactures about one hundred tons of excelsior per year, using basswood
and poplar.

Patrick's butter tub and cheese box manufactory and saw and cider-mill,
located at Mechanicsville, was establishd by R. Patrick & Sons in 1868, The
works now employ six men, who manufacture 5,000 feet of lumber per day,
3,000 butter tubs and 12,000 cheese boxes per annum, while the cider-mill
has a capacity for making sixty barrels of cider per day.

Patrick's iron foundry, also located at Mechanicsville, was built in 1832,
by Rufus Patrick, and run byhim until 1876, when it was taken by his son,
D. K. Patrick, who still carries on the business, manufacturing agricultural
implements, employing four men.

The only settlers who resided in the town previous to the Revolution were
Isaac Lawrence, from Canaan, Conn., and Abner Chaffee. Mr. Lawrence
was given lot 26, of the second division, voted him by the proprietors in con-
sideration for services rendered them in making roads. Mr. Chaffee lived at
the south end of the village. At the beginning of the war they both left, and
Mr. Lawrence returned again in 1783, and resided here until 1793, when he
sold out to Epaphras Hull, from Wallingford, and removed to Canada. His
family endured some of the severest hardships while here, being often in want
of food. Mrs. Lawrence has said that she lived ten months at one time
without seeing the face of any other woman, and that for one whole season
the only food used by the family was dried pumpkins with the little mouldy
flour that the children scraped from the inside of a barrel that had been wet.
In 1784, Mr. Lawrence was joined by Jacob Meacham, from Rutland, Hez-
ekiah Tuttle, trom Williamstown, Mass., and Amos Andrews. In 178s,
George McEuen, from New Milford, Conn., George Palmer, from Stoning-
ton, Conn., Elisha Meech, Eliphaz and George Steele, Thomas Place, Thom-
as Butler, Joseph Wilson, Thomas McFarland and Elkanah Billings came
into the town, and were followed in 1786, by Alfred Smalley, Job Spafford,
Azariah Palmer, Elisha Barber, Zadock Clark, Andrew Burritt, Jonathan
Green, David Gates, Nathan Leavenworth, Nathan Leavenworth, Jr., James
Gates, Zalmon Wheeler, Cornelius Hurlburt and Enoch Haskins. These
were joined in 1787, by Elijah Peck, James Comings, Seth Bassett, Jonathan
Marshall, Knaptaly Bishop, Lemuel Bostwick, Joseph Farrand, David Hill,
Nathan Stuart, Thaddeus Stuart, Abraham Stuart, Eleazer Sprague, Lockwood

Stone, Moses Smalley and Jonas Shattuck, constituting an entire list of all
who came previous to the organization of the town.

But one of the original proprietors, Andrew Burritt, ever settled in the
town, though many of them were represented by their descendants. Mr,
Burritt located in the southeastern part of the town, where he resided many
years. He was blind a number of years previous to his death, which took
place before that of his wife, at the age of ninety-six years, three months, and
hers at ninety-five years and eight months. Not long before her death she
remarked that she had lived so long she was almost ashamed of herself, and
sometimes concluded the Lord had forgotten her, but thought she should
fare well in the next world for being so good to “ Dada,” the name she gave
her husband, while he was blind and helpless. They lived happily together
for seventy years, and attained the greatest age of any settlers of the town.

The first proprietors’ meeting was held at New Milford, Conn., on the last
Friday of July, 1762, and continued to be held at that place from time to
time, for the transaction of business, up to May 16, 1776. From that time
to May 6, 1783, no meeting was held, owing to the unsettled times attending
the Revolution. Soon after its close, however, May 16, 1783, the first meet-
ing in the town was warned, through the public paper, notifying the proprie-
tors ‘‘to meet at the house of Abner Chaffee in said Hinsburgh on the fifth
Monday of June next.” The meeting so warned was held, and Noble Hine
chosen moderator and Isaac Hitchcock clerk. The first town meeting, at
which the town was duly organized by the election of proper town officers,
was warned by Isaac Tichenor, of Bennington, and held on the third Tuesday
of March, 1787, at the house of Eliphaz Steele. Josiah Steele was chosen
moderator; Elisha Barber, town clerk; Elisha Barber, George McEuen, and
Eliphaz Steele, selectmen ; and Jacob Meacham, constable. Erastus Bost-
wick held the office of town clerk from 1798 to 1838, forty years, and was
the last survivor of the ancient officers. The first justice was Elisha Barber,
chosen in 1787, and the first representative was Lemuel Bostwick, elected in
1789. The first child born in town was a son of Jacob Meacham, born April
1, 1785, and was named Hine. The first death was that of a child of
Elkanah Billings, who settled here in 1785.

On Pond Brook, which contains excellent mill sites, was erected the first
mill. It is a small stream, heading in Hinesburgh Pond, a handsome sheet
of water about a mile and a half in length by three-quarters of a mile in
width, containing Rock, Grass, and Spruce islands. The latter, lying near
the eastern side, is the largest, and is quite a resort for picnic parties.

The outlet of the pond is at the south end, where a dam seven feet high
and three rods long is built, forming a good reservoir for the mills on the
stream below, which courses along in a general southwesterly direction. It
originally joined the LaPlotte to the southwest of the village, but now joins
just west of it, as its course was changed by building a canal, through which
its waters are carried to the village, where they afford a water-power of six-

teen feet head. From the pond to the bridge near Rufus Patrick’s, the
brook has a fall of about thirty feet, and from there, in flowing three quarters
of a mile, it falls 250 feet, affording mill privileges which are unexcelled, as
the reservoirs above render them reliable throughout the year. The lots con-
taining the best of these mill-sites were marked 53 and 54 0n the original
survey, and were purchased of the proprietors by Beriah Murray, of Clare-
mont, N. H. Mr. Murray was a famous hunter at that time, and probably
became acquainted with the spot on some of his excursions in search of game.
He never located here himself, however, but sold the property to Lemuel
Bostwick, and became an early settler in Williston. In 1791, Mr. Bostwick,
in company with Daniel Sherman, erected asaw-mill, just above the site now
occupied by Daniel Patrick’s mill, the first builtin the town. It was a cheap
affair, however, after the fashion of the period, and lasted but a short time.
In 1793, Mr. Bostwick erected a grist-mill just above the shop now occupied
by John Edwin. It was a two story structure, containing two runs of stones
and a bolt, operated by an overshot wheel situated outside of the building,
the outer bearing resting on a stone, which, by the way, was well calculated
to grind it off, as indeed it did in the course of a few years, and the mill
stopped. Sometime between 1793 and 1800, Mr. Bostwick built a carding
mill on the site now occupied by the grist-mill. It was supplied with
machinery which carded the wool and formed into rolls, and though a rude
affair, was considered at that time a model of mechanical genius, and,
indeed, it was a matter of no small importance to the inhabitants,
as previous to this all their carding had to be done by hand, or taken
to Vergennes, where there was a mill. About this time Joseph Wilcox built
a saw-mill some thirty or forty rods below, where the rocks formed a sort of
natural dam, affording a head of eight or ten feet. A few years after this,
about 1801, Mr. Bostwick, in company with Messrs. Eldridge and Peck, built
a saw-mill a little to the northwest of the site now occupied by L. Murray’s
excelsior mill. The water was taken from the dam which supplied the card-
ing mill, carried thither by a ditch which passed along where the road now is,
or a little higher up the bank. In 1812, the bearings to the grist-mill wheel
again were ground off, and it “stopped, never to go again,” as a grist-mill.
In 1814, Thomas Wilcox rebuilt the John Wilcox mill, and during the
following year sold it to Colvin, Celah and Allen Murray, and Harmon
Anger. Colvin Murray bought out Lemuel Bostwick, and Brigham Wright
run the carding-mill for him that year. In 1816, Murray built a grist-mill
where the factory now stands, the wall on a part of the south and west sides
being the same then built. Brigham Wright bought out Celah and Allen
Murray and Anger. The carding-mill and the Bostwick, Eldridge & Peck
saw-mill, being in ruinous condition, were taken down and the carding
machines stored in a barn. In 1817, Capt. Bacon built a wood working
shop midway between the two bridges, on a little brook that runs into the
grist-mill pond, and in 1818, Boynton & Hurlburt put a “still” into this
208 TOWN OF HINESBURGH.

shop and manufactured liquor for several years thereafter. Brigham Wright
built a dam and a mill for dressing cloth just below his saw-mill, but during
the following year it was destroyed by fire, and he removed the business to
the old Bostwick grist-mill. And also during this year Boynton & Hurlburt
built the factory at the village which is now used as a grist-mill. In 1820,
Abijah Lake put a set of carding machines into the old grist-mill. In 1821,
B. Wright took down his saw-mill and removed it to the site of the mill

which burned. Orrin Murray went into partnership with him for a period of
three years, in the cloth dressing business.

During the year 1822, Samuel Hurlburt built a saw-mill just soit of the
present grist-mill. In 1823, Orrin Murray and John S. Patrick formed a
partnership, and finally came into possession of all of Colvin Murray’s prop-
erty on the stream, and continued the cloth dressing business after Murray’s
engagement with Wright closed. They also built a mill for carding where
D. K. Patrick’s shop now stands. J. S. Patrick was a machinist and wheel-
wright, using the old grist-mill for a shop. Lake had to move his carding
machine out, and in company with Wiley built a mill just above the bridge,
which was suqsequently converted into the dwelling now occupied by C. F,.
Knox. During the year 1824, Murray & Patrick bought B. Wright’s saw-
mill, thus coming into possession of the pond. Colvin Murray had built a
dam at the outlet so as to hold the water back for his grist-mill years befere.
In 1827, Murray & Patrick bought out Wiley & Lake, Wiley taking the
present grist-mill privilege in part payment, and, in company with L. F. Clark,
built a large blacksmith shop, which they sold during the following year to
Elanson Lyon, who added a wagon shop. In 1829, Murray & Patrick built
the shop occupied by J. Edwin, for their carding and cloth dressing business.
In 1830, they commenced manufacturing cloth, with two power looms. In
1831, Lyman Huntington erected a tannery on a little brook near the
present residence of Joseph Bissonnett, whose house was then used for a bark
and finishing shop.

In 1832, Lyon’s shops were destroyed by fire, and Rufus Patrick and
Loren Murray built the foundry where it now stands, and also bought the
old carding mill of Murray & Patrick for a shop. In 1833, the trestle-work
that had served the old Bostwick mill as a foundation gave way. The machin-
ery was taken out and the building used as a store-house, and a portion of
it as a machine shop, and so used for a number of years, when it was torn
down, thus displacing the last vestige of Bostwick’s work on the stream.
Rufus Patrick and Mr. Murray commenced the manufacture of plows, laying the
foundation for D. K. Patrick’s business. Lyon moved away during the
spring of this year, and his place passed into the possession of Francis Wilson,
who some time previous to this had established an “‘ashery” on the brook.

In 1835, Clark Whitehorn purchased a site just below Rufus Patrick’s
shop, where he established a small carding and cloth-dressing mill. In 1836,
Loren and Colvin Murray bought the Lyon place of Wilson, and put up a

 
TOWN OF HINESBURGH. 209

 

factory where the blacksmith shop had stood. They had gotten part of the
machinery in when the financial crash of 4837 compelled them to suspend
operations. In 1840, Clark Whitehorn built the factory now known as the
F. F. Lyman factory, and put into it two sets of carding machines, using his
old building as a dry-house. During 1842, Murray & Patrick purchased the
factory building of Colvin and Loren Murray, and moved their machinery into
it, and also built another set. They also moved their machine shop to the
factory. In 1843, Enos Hoadley built a saw-mill just below the bridge, by
Rufus Patrick’s, but it did not prove successful, so was abandoned, and finally
was moved across the street and converted into a dwelling. In Decem-
ber, 1844, Murray & Patrick’s factory burned down, the fire originating in
the carding-room. During the following year they re-erected their factory
upon its present site, and removed the grist-mill, converting it into a dwell-
ing. Mr. Hull built a potato starch mill also during this year, between L.
Murray’s mill and the road, a part of the foundations of which still remain.
In 1847, L. Murray sold his carding and cloth-dressing business to E. Hoad-
ley, who added to it the manufacture of cheese boxes.

In 1848, B. & H. Boynton failed and the factory at the village ceased op-
erations, and was opened the following year by David Frazier. In 1850,
Rufus Patrick built a shop, the one now occupied by D. K. Patrick. In
1851, Murray & Patrick closed up their factory business, and the property
passed into the hands of J. & J. F. Peck, of Burlington. In 1853, Daniel
and Rufus Patrick, Herman Murray, Walter Abbott, and Morton Crossman
built the grist-mill now owned by Russel Cary. In 1854, Murray & Patrick
built a saw-mill where the old Bostwick mill had stood. In 1855, Loren Mur-
ray commenced the manufacture of cheese boxes in the carding-mill. In
1856, Andrew and Isaiah Dow and Nelson Nay bought the factory of Peck
and commenced business, as described on page 204. In 1857, Murray &
Patrick dissolved partnership, Patrick retaining the mill property and most of
the farm. In 1859, A. D. Rood and W. K. Patrick bought J. S. Patrick’s
machine shop and continued the machinist and millwright business. In
1863, C. C. & H. Post bought the starch-mill property, took down the old
saw and starch-mills, and built the shop now occupied by L. Murray, starting
the business of manufacturing sap buckets and pails. In 1865, Mr. Murray
purchased the property, and subsequently commenced the manufacture of
excelsior, being still in the business. In 1868, Dow’s factory was destroyed
by fire, and Rufus Patrick built the saw-mill now owned by Daniel Patrick.
In 1869, the Dow factory was rebuilt. In 1880, Daniel Patrick built a new
dam above his mill, which gave way the first time it was filled, injuring one
of the workmen so badly that he died from the effects a few days later. He
immediately rebuilt the dam.

Such are the principal changes on Pond Brook, put together in a dry and
uninteresting form, yet valuable in an historical point of view.

George McEuen, mentioned among the early settlers on a previous page,

and Mercy Wright, were married at. Shaftsbury, Vt., Nov. 12, 1783. In the
summer of 1784, Mr. Euen worked at Ferrisburgh, Addison County, building
the first saw-mill in that town, and a little later in the season came on to his
land in Hinesburgh and built a cabin. The following February he moved
from Shaftsbury to Hinesburgh on an ox sled, finding few roads but plenty of
marked trees. He had a yoke of oxen, two cows and one horse. When he
and his wife arrived at the northern end of Monkton Pond, no track or road
was broken farther, and the snow was four feet deep, so Mrs. McEuen was
compelled to remain in Monkton until her husband’s hired man came through
to Hinesburgh and broke a track. When this had been accomplished, George
rolled up a feather bed and put it, together with some bed clothes, on the horse,
and set his wife upon them with a basket of crockery inherlap. In this way
they followed on to their new home in the forest, arriving here on the 26th of
February, 1785. Mrs. McEuen saw no other female till the following April.
Their cabin contained one room, with split logs for a floor, and a chimney in
wigwam style. Before Mr. McEuen left Shaftsbury he made a wash tub with
a cover to it, and in this they salted their meat, it being a more convenient
way to move it than in a barrel. The lid, or cover, to this tub was used in-
stead of a table for their first meals. After this, their hired man went to
Monkton, where the oxen and sled had been left, and got the table, carrying
it four miles to their new home, on his head. One of the cows having be-
come sick, she was permitted to share one corner of the cabin with them
nightly for two weeks.

During the following summer there was a tea party held in the town, at-
tended by all the ladies in the township, namely: Mrs. McEuen, Lawrence,
Chaffee, Tuttle and Meacham, five in all. Mr. McEuen’s was the fifth fam-
ily that settledin Hinesburgh. During the summer of 1785, Mr. McEuen
built a log house in which they lived until July 19, 1797, when they removed
to their new two-story brick house, (which has long since passed away, yet
which some of the older inhabitants recollect,) on the old McEuen home-
stead. In the winter of 1787, Mrs. McEuen, as midwife, attended the birth
of the first child born in Hinesburgh, which was named Hines Meacham. Mr.
McEuen remained in Hinesburgh until his death, February 27, 1813, leaving
six sons and three daughters. The sons were as follows: James, Charles,
Augustus, Carlton, George and Ransom. Four of the sons died in this town,
while Carlton and George removed to St. Lawrence County, N. Y., where
they left large families. The daughters all married in Hinesburgh, two of
them dying soon after marriage. Mercy Marenda, the youngest, died in Janu-
ary, 1882, the widow of A. H. Post. In March, 1815, Mrs. McEuen be-
came the wife of Nehemiah Royce, he surviving the marriage but about two
years. She died December 26, 1847, aged 83 years.

Nahum Peck, with one exception the oldest practicing lawyer in Vermont,
was born at Royalton, Mass., October 5, 1796, studied law and was admitted
to the bar at Montpelier, in September, 1823, and immediately settled at

Hinesburgh, where he has practiced continuously since. At his advanced
age he reaps the reward of an upright life, in possessing the respect and
honor of his fellow townsmen, who have repeatedly shown their regard by
tendering him positions of trust. His son, Cicero Godard Peck, was born
February 17, 1828. He has held many of the town trusts, and is at present
superintendent of public schools and chairman of the school board.

Gov. Asahel Peck, LL. D., brother of Nahum, was born at Royalton,
Mass., and removed with his parents while an infant to Montpelier, Vt. He
was fitted for college at Hinesburgh Academy and at Washington County
Grammar School, entered the University of Vermont, from which he received
the degree of A. B., and from Middlebury College the title of LL. D. He
also spent one year at a French college, near Montreal. He read law with
his brother, Nahum Peck, at Hinesburgh, and after a few months’ study with
Baily & Marsh, at Burlington, (Marsh is now American minister to Italy,)
where he was admitted to the bar. He practiced law several years in the
State and United States courts, and aften being State senator was appointed
judge of the circuit court, retaining the position four years, after which he
was judge of the supreme court fourteen years, and Governor of Vermont
from 1874 to 1876. He was a judge of much note, it having often been
said of him by eminent lawyers and judges, that his legal learning would com-
pare favorably with that of the late Judge Parsons, of the U. S. supreme
court. In his later years he settled at Jericho, where he died, May 18, 1879,
aged seventy-five years and eight months, and was buried in the cemetery at
Hinesburgh.

John Partch, born at Danbury, Conn., September 29, 1780, came to this
town with his parents, in October, 1796. He was for some time the
oldest person in Hinesburgh, dying at the age of ninety-two years, nine
months and sixteen days. He was the third child in a family of nine
sons and two daughters, all of whom he survived. In early life he worked at
the carpenter trade, but later followed farming. During the war of 1812, he
entered the army and was stationed for a time at Burlington. As a citizen
he was unpretending, intelligent, and trustworthy, interested in all that con-
cerned the honor and welfare of his town. He has six children,—two sons
and four daughters,—one of whom, Dea. Noble L., is still living in Hines-
burgh.

Dea. Oliver Post, from West Hampton, Mass., came to Hinesburgh in
May, 1801. He was a tanner, currier, and shoemaker by trade, and was
connected with the early history of the Congregational church here. He
did service in the Revolutionary war, being at one time stationed in a fort on
the Susquehannah River, near Wilkesbarre, Pa., six months. Of his family
of seven children who came to Hinesburgh with him, the youngest, A. H.
Post, died here, May 3, 1881, aged nearly eighty-eight years. He built for
himself or repaired one or more buildings each year for forty-four consecutive
years, represented the town in 18 56-57, including the extra session after the

burning of the State House, got up the charter for the first cheese factory in
town, and for the present cemetery, besides contributing largely to these
enterprises. He was twice married, living only about two years with his.
first wife, when she died, leaving one child. He then married Mercy Marenda
McEuen, with whom he lived a happy life of sixty-one years, she surviving
him until January, 1882. He had a family of four sons and two daughters,
two sons and one daughter of whom are now living—C. C. Post, of Burling-
ton, H. A. Post, and Mrs. William Partch.

Samuel Dorwin, from Lanesborough, Mass., came to this town in 1785,
His children were Samuel, Jr., who resided in Fairfax, and Urania, the wife of
Calvin Murray. She died in 1793, aged twenty years. ‘Thomas, brother to:
Samuel Dorwin, came from Lanesborough in 1805, bringing with him two
sons, Canfield and Thomas M. Canfield married Electa Cook, of New
Haven, Vt., and had two daughters, Charlotte L. and Caroline L., who be-
came the wives respectively of J. G. Weller and C. H. Weed, and who now
occupy the old Dorwin homestead.

David Weller, also from Lanesborough, was an early settler, bringing with
him his family, consisting of wife and four sons, John, Jonathan, David, and
Seth. David died in 1795. Seth married Wealthy Grun, December 30,
1799, having born to them ten children, two of whom, Job G. and Rhoda
(Mrs. Mead), reside in Hinesburgh, and Greene D. in Burlington. John and
Jonathan removed to New York early in life.

Nathan Leavenworth, from Washington, Conn., came to Hinesburgh in
1786, made asmall clearing, built a log house, sowed some wheat, and returned
to Connecticut. During the following spring he came back to this town,
bringing with him his wife and one son, Nathan, Jr. In the course of a few
years Nathan, Jr., married Annie Buckingham, of New Milford, Conn., and
subsequently occupied the old homestead.

Jacob Snyder, from New York, came to Hinesburgh about the year 1787,
bringing with him his family, consisting of wife and four children, remaining
here until his death, at the advanced age of eighty years. One of his daugh-
ters, Catharine, became the wife of Giles Rood and is now living in town
with her son, Jacob S., at the age of ninety-nine years.

Job Place, from Providence, R. I., came to Hinesburgh in 1789, locating
upon the farm now owned by his grandson, S. C. Place. His son, Harry J.,
married Miss Mary Clement, and resided upon the old homestead all his life.
He had a family of eight sons, of whom three, S. C., A. C., and W. W.,, still
are residents of the town.

Charles Russell came to this town from Washington County, N. Y., in
1795, and located upon the farm now owned by Noble R. Miles. He was
twice married. By his first wife, Percival Perry, he had two sons and a
daughter, and by his second wife, Huldah Videtto, he was blessed with three
daughters and one son, He died here in January, 1849. Perry, a son by
his first wife, married Hannah Irish, of Charlotte, and located upon the farm

now owned by his widow. On the 3d of October, 1868, he was murdered
by Henry Welcome, who subsequently suffered the penalty of his crime, being
hanged at Windsor, Vt., after acknowledging his guilt. Perry’s son, Elwood,
now lives on the old homestead with his mother, who is eighty-six years of
age. He has one son, Charles, living at home.

Daniel Patrick came to Hinesburgh, from Fitzwilliam, N. H., in 1797.
His trade was that of manufacturing spinning-wheels, which was an article
then in great demand. During the season of 1797, he obtained a supply of
timber suitable for his purposes, and after placing it in a condition to season
returned to New Hampshire to work up a quantity of lumber he had left
there. During the following spring he returned to Hinesburgh and resumed
his business, boarding with the family of Lemuel Bostwick, who then occupied
the present sight of Daniel Patrick’s residence. He continued in the family
of Mr. Bostwick until February, 1800, when he married Susannah McCleabe,
of Lynn, N. H., and located upon the farm now owned by Mr. O’Brien.
During a long life of economy and industry he succeeded in gaining a com-
petence, and in securing the respect and confidence of his townsmen, whom
he served in many of the town trusts. During the war of 1812, he served a
short time in the army, acting as lieutenant of cavalry, and was present at the
battle of Plattsburgh. He died on his seventy-first birthday, November 6,
1843. Of his five children, three only are now living, as follows: Daniel, Jr.,
aged seventy-nine, Elizabeth (Mrs. Orran Murray), aged seventy-seven, and
Rufus, aged seventy years. He had also twenty-one grandchildren, seventeen
of whom are now living, all honorable and worthy descendants of a noble
grandsire.

Edmund and Orange Baldwin, brothers, came from New Milford, Conn.,
to Hinesburgh, in February, 1797, and settled on the first division, of which
their father was one of the original proprietors. Their talents and characters
soon secured for them the respect and confidence of their fellow citizens.
Orange held for some time the office of first constable and collector, which
duties he discharged with fidelity and to the satisfaction of the town. Fred-
erick W., a son of Edmund, was engaged in the tanning business for some
years, and then engaged in mercantile pursuits, where he was quite successful.
He was a selectman for many years and held other town offices. He was
thrice married, and had a family of eleven children, two of whom, Laura E.
(Mrs. H. A. Beecher) and Sarah E., are living in this town. Frederick W.
died March 24th, 1876. Harley M.,a brother to Frederick W., lived here
most of his lifetime, dying January 9, 1874. He married Eliza Sherman of
Charlotte, and had a family of eight children, six of whom are now living.

John Beecher, a deacon of the Baptist church in Hinesburgh, came from
New Milford, Conn., in 1800, and located where Royal Bell now lives. He
had a family of eight children, John, Lydia, Lyman, Austin, Rebecca, Polly,
Lucy and Harvey. In 1816, he removed to Shoremam, Vt., where he died
at the age of seventy-four years. His widow returned to Hinesburgh, where

she died, aged eighty-six years. The only representatives of the family in
the town now are two grandsons, Dr. Elmer Beecher, aged seventy years, and
Harmon Beecher.

Colvin Murray, from Williston, Vt., came to Hinesburgh in 1816, and lo-
cated upon the place formerly owned by Lemuel Bostwick, and now the
property of Daniel Patrick. He had a family of nine children, four sons and
five daughters. He died in 1822, aged fifty-three years, leaving a small for-
tune. The only son who settled in Hinesburgh was Orran, who still resides
here, aged eighty-one years. He has carried on respectively the business of
machinist, wheelwright, manufacturer of woolen cloth and farming.

Dennison Andrews, from Connecticut, located in Charlotte soon after the
Revolution, where he married Eunice Cook and had a family of six children.
In 1817, he removed to New York, where he subsequently died. One of his
sons, Ira, came back to Vermont, locating in Shelburne, where he married
Aurelia Locke, and had a family of five children, four sons, and one daughter.
The sons are now all living, two of them, Leonard, a merchant, and Curtis,
in Hinesburgh. Curtis resides upon a portion of the old McEuen farm, hav-
ing married Ellen McEuen.

Royal Bell, born in 1801, came to this town, from Weybridge, Vt., in
April, 1818. He resided with the family of Carlton McEuen until twenty-
one years of age. June 29th 1831, he married Philura Ann Batchelder, with
whom he has lived a happy married life since, they being now aged respect-
ively eighty-one and seventy-five years. Of their family of seven children,
one only, Martha J., the wife of Perry Reade, is living.

The Hinesburgh Congregational Society, located at Hinesburgh village, was
organized by Rev. Nathan Perkins, of West Hartford, Conn., May 20, 1789,
with eleven members, The first church building was erected of wood, in
1800, and did service until 1837, when the present brick church was built
at a cost of $6,000.00, about its present value. It will seat about 300 persons.
The society now has 102 members, sixty-eight of whom are resident, with Rev.
Artemas C. Field, pastor. During the history of this church, twenty-one of
the young men whose parents, or themselves, were connected with it, have
become ministers of the gospel, while fourteen ofits young ladies have become
ministers’ wives.

The Baptist Church of Hinesburgh, also located at the village, was organ-
ized May, 30, 1810, with eighteen members, and Rev. S. Churchill, pastor.
The church building is a wood structure, capable of seating 500 persons, and
is valued, including grounds, at about $4,500.00. The society now has
ninety-eight members, with Rev. A. S. Gilbert, pastor.

The Methodist Episcopal Church, located at the village, was organized by its
first pastor, Rev. Noah Levens, in 1831, with ten members, which number has
since increased to ninety-eight, with Rev. D. F. Brooks, pastor. The present
brick church was erected in 1837, is valued at $3,300,00, and will seat 250
persons.
TOWN OF HUNTINGTON. 215

 

The Christian Advent Church, located near the center of the village, was
organized by its present pastor, Rev. A. A. Hoyt, August 3, 1874, with ten
members. Their church building, a wood structure capable of seating 200
persons, was erected during the following year.

oNtincton, a mountainous, irregularly-outlined town, lies in the

extreme southeastern corner of the county, inlat 44° 20', andlong. 4°5’,

bounded north by Richmond and Bolton, east by Duxbury and Fayston,
in Washington County, south by Buel’s Gore, and Starksboro in Addison
County, and west by Starksboro and Hinesburgh. It was chartered by Ben-
ning Wentworth to Edward Burling and sixty-six others, principally from
Connecticut, June 7, 1763, and was to contain an area six miles square or
23,040 acres, under the name of New Huntington. This area, however, as
well as the name, has since been very materially changed. Originally, the
township included all the southern part of Richmond lying between the
Winooski River and within one or two lots of Hinesburgh’s east line, thence
down the Winooski to the north line of the farm adjoining the river, formerly
owned by Peter Crane and since by Oliver and Thomas Cutter, and last by
Alfred Crane, about half a mile above the old meeting-house, following a line
running west, and approaching within alot or two of Hinesburgh, not far
from the farms owned by Royal Briggs and John Williams. The original
western boundary was separated from the Hinesburgh line by a narrow strip
of land running from the southeast comer of Williston, as it then was, called
Williston Leg, which was afterwards annexed to the respective towns of
Richmond and Huntington, according as theycame in range. The direc-
tion of the present north line between Huntington and Richmond commences
near the southeast corner of Bolton, on the top of the mountain rising east
from the gorge that divides it from the North Mountain, back of Chester and
Harry Ross’s farms in Huntington, thence running across the said gorge, fol-
lowing the North Mountain down to Huntington River, passing near a maple
tree which stands by the side of the road leading to Richmond, and north of
the bridge near Daniel Scofield’s house, and so on west, or rather southwest,
till it strikes and intersects with Hinesburgh and Richmond lines, on the
north side of David Sherman’s farm, on road 1. The act by which this
change of territory was effected was passed by the legislature, October 27,
1794, which also took the easterly part of Burlington, the southerly part of
Jericho, the town of Williston, together with the portion of New Hunting-
ton mentioned, and a part of Avery’sand Buel’s Gores, forming the whole into
three towns. In addition to the part taken to form the new town of Rich-
mond, another part was annexed to Bolton, while a portion of the Gore on
the south was annexed to this town. Other than these, no changes have .
216 TOWN OF HUNTINGTON,

 

occurred in its area. On October 27, 1795, the name of New Huntington
was changed to Huntington by the legislature.

The surface of the town is cut by hills and mountains, containing but little
level land, except along the verdant intervales of Huntington River. Camel’s
Hump, one of the principal peaks of the Green Mountain range, lies in the
extreme northeastern corner of the town, its summit standing within the east-
ern boundary of the township, being the highest elevation. North Mountain
is next in prominence, lying just within the northern line of the town, east of
Huntington River. A range of small hills also skirt the western edge of the
town. All, however, except Camel’s Hump, are clothed with a heavy growth
of timber, or where it has been cut away, by good grazing land. The soil,
which is various, produces ample crops of grass and grain, and for a moun-
tainous district is an unusually rich farming territory. Camel’s Hump, which
is almost a too well known summit of the Green Mountains to need especial
mention here, rears its bald, rocky head 4,083 feet above tide water, affording
a prospect from its summit which is excelled by no mountain in the State.
Its isolated position, with respect to other peaks, and the strongly marked and
peculiar outline of its summit, which suggested its name, make a conspicuous
and easily recognized object from a large portion of the Champlain Valley. It
is situated like a huge observatory, towering far above the surrounding country,
and affording from a single point one of the most extended and varied views
any where to be found. The same enchanting prospect of Champlain Lake
and Valley is here afforded that is seen from Mount Mansfield, and to the east
is outspread a rich and varied landscape that extends to the hazy summits of
the White Mountains. No mountain peaks encroach upon the north and
south to hide the prospect, but from the base towards either point along the
Green Mountain range may be seen a beautiful succession of peaks, that
gradually fade out as they rise beyond each other in the blue distance. The
pleasant village of Waterbury is only ten miles distant from the summit, and
Montpelier about twenty miles to the east, and Burlington lies within thirty
miles upon the west, while beneath, nestled at its feet, is the picturesque town
of Huntington, with its well-kept farms and neat villages. Surrounded by
these places, and the numerous other thriving villages that are planted within
full view from its summit, Camel’s Hump cannot fail to become a favorite re-
sort for those who would wisely combine healthful exercise of the body with
well-directed recreation of the mind. The township is watered by Hunting-
ton River and its tributaries, a handsome stream flowing across the whole
length of the town from south to north, affording several good mill privileges.
Calm and placid though it usually is, it sometimes plays mad, vicious tricks,
one of which, the memorable freshet of July 3, 1858, will long be remem-
bered by the inhabitants. It had been dry and sultry for several days pre-
ceding the 3d, and about 3 o’clock in the afternoon the storm which Nature
had been brewing began to descend. Dark, heavy cloud-banks came up from
the west and northwest, turning the day to almost the darkness of night, and

emitting their electric fluid in blinding, zig-zag streaks of flame. Soon the
rain began to descend, gently at first, but gradually increasing to a perfect
deluge, continuing to pour down with an intensity rarely exceeded by tropical
showers, for two hours and a half without cessation; and when at length it
did abate it was soon renewed for a shorter period. The effect of this deluge
soon raised the waters of the river and its tributaries far above their usual
height, and at sunset they were bearing huge masses of drift-wood and whole
trees upon their angry breasts, and at ten o'clock had attained a height never
before reached by any previous freshets. Bridges, fences, and all within the
sweep of the current were borne away, besides in some places cutting out
huge pieces of land with their standing crops. At the north village, be-
sides sweeping away the covered bridge, ninety feet long, it tore away the
dam, and undermined and tore away two buildings adjacent, one of them a
machine shop, bricked outside and three stories high, 60x46 feet. The grass,
grain and corn were beaten down, and in many places covered with sand and
gtavel, so that when the swollen current subsided it left a scene of devasta-
tion that was appalling. The loss of property was immense, amounting to
many thousands of dollars. A singular incident of the flood was the carrying
of a three story building, stored with carriages and lumber, one hundred
rods down the stream and landed it perfectly sound, without a scratch upon
the carriages, or any damage done to the lumber.

On the day of the flood a party of four men, Sidney Gillett, Charles Work,
Edwin Dike and Chester Rood, ascended Camel’s Hump, intending to remain
over night for the sake of viewing the sunrise. The storm came upon them
so suddenly that they were obliged to encounter its fury with no shelter but
the clouds. The atmosphere was so dense and the rain descended in such
torrents that they could only breathe by placing their hands upon their
mouths and nostrils. But a more sublime and awe-inspiring scene was never
viewed by mortal, probably, than this storm beheld from the summit of Cam-
el’s Hump. They claimed that until it became too dark too see at all, the
clouds below them resembled the waves of the ocean, rolling and seething,
as though, as they in their fright imagined, the whole earth were covered with
a mighty deluge as in the daysof Noah. After total darkness had settled over
them the vivid flashes of lightning continued to dart through the inky black-
ness, followed by deafening peals of thunder that seemed to shake the moun-
tain upon its base. From the effects of this night of terror Mr. Rood never
recovered, but died about two years after from results of the exposure.

Mrs. Stillman Johnson informs us that she was living with her father and
mother, on road 14, at the time of the flood, and that about eight o’clock in the
evening, after their house had been surrounded by the angry waters, they left
the building and waded to a tree near by, where they took refuge, remaining in
their retreat until twelve o’clock, when the flood had subsided sufficiently for
them to make their way to a neighbor’s, on higher land, where they remained
during the rest of the night.
218 TOWN OF HUNTINGTON.

In 1880, Huntington had a population of 811, was divided into seven school
districts and contained seven common schools, employing two male and
seven female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $721.81. There were 177
pupils attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools for the
year, ending October 31st, was $860.12, with Mr. I. L. Strong, Jr., superin_
tendent.

Huntincron, a post village located in the northwestern part of the town,
on Huntington River, contains one church (Union), three stores, one black-
smith shop, a hotel, saw-mill, grist-mill, and about thirty dwellings. The
nearest railway station is Richmond, with which the village is connected by a
daily stage.

HuntincrTon CENTER, a post village located on the river about two and
one-half miles southeast from Huntington village, near the centre of the town,
contains one church (Union), a town hall, a hotel, one store, a blacksmith
shop, and about twenty dwellings. The village is connected with Richmond
depot, eight miles distant, by a daily stage, which carries the mail.

Lorman J. Mix’s saw-mill, located on Huntington River, was built by
Harry M. Small, in 1875. Mr. Mix manufactures annually 100,000 feet of
clapboards and 500,000 staves, in addition to a large amount of common
lumber.

The Forest Mills Lumber Co.’s mills are located at the foot of Camel's
Hump, on road24. They give employment to ten men, manufacturing
staves, chair-stock, and dimension and common lumber. They saw annually
about 800,000 feet of spruce and 400,000 feet of hard-wood lumber. Their
mills are operated by a stock company with Sidney M. Gillett, manager.

A. C. Dearborn’s saw and grist-mill, located in the southern part of the
town, on Huntington River, has the capacity of cutting 30,000 feet of lumber
per week, and operates one run of stones.

Jehiel Johns was the first settler early in 1786, a bold, hardy, athletic
man, just the timber for a pioneer. He emigrated thither from Manchester,
Vt., together with his wife, following Otter Creek down to Lake Champlain,
thence on the ice to Burlington, which at that time contained only three
families living in log cabins, then up the Winooski to what is now called
Richmond Flats, where, leaving his wife and movables in the care of Joel
Brownson, an early settler in that locality, and taking his axe, proceeded to
his pitch in New Huntington, being the farm long known as the “Johns
Place,” located on the river just south of the village. Here he commenced
cutting the timber, the first felled in the township, and from the logs began
to build a log cabin, rolling the timber for the lower part into place without
help, and for the upper portion being assisted by Stillman and Samuel
Bradley, early settlers in Williston. Having completed this abode, he re-
turned to Brownson’s for his wife, and removing his household effects thither,
few indeed, commenced his pioneer home. Mr. Johns subsequently built a
log house on road 11, and some time after a frame house on the same site.

 

 
TOWN OF HUNTINGTON. 219

 

 

He was born in Duchess County, N. Y., February 19, 1756, and married
Elizabeth Sexton, of Manchester, February 19, 1786, and to them was born
six children, five sons and a daughter, one of whom, James Johns, is at pres-
ent well known in Huntington as an antiquarian. Mr. Johns was early
chosen to important town offices, being moderator of the first town meeting,
first justice of the peace, first representative, besides filling various other
offices. He died August 12, 1840, aged eighty-five years, his widow surviv-
ing him until March 25, 1851, aged eighty-four years.

During the first year of his settlement, 1786, Mr. Johns was joined by
Elisha Bradley, from Sunderland, Vt., who built the second log house in
town. He removed, however, to Williston the next winter, leaving Mr.
Johns the sole inhabitant until the following spring, when Charles Brewster
and Ebenezer Ambler, with their families, came on from Tinmouth, Vt., and
began a settlement in his vicinity. Next came Asa Gillett, all locating on
the river. The first settlement in the western part of the town was com-
menced by Jacob Schneider. The first on East Hill was made by John
Martin, who was soon after joined by John Thomas and Rufus Williams in
1788 or ’89. The first settlement in what is called Buel’s Gore was made
by Abel Turner, John Fitch and Samuel Fargo. The first on Southeast
Hill, south of Brush’s Brook, was by Jacob Fairman and Lawrence Ravelin.
The first in what is called ‘“‘Sherman Hollow,” in the northwestern part of
the town, was begun by Stephen Squires, about 1789 or 1790. In 1794,
came Oliver Russell, John Raymond, Jonathan Shepard, John Teft, Jabez
Fargo, David Caswell, Joseph Carpenter, Elias Farr, and Zebediah Joslin,
though some of them proved mere temporary squatters, acting, as is the
nature of some people, much after the manner of a hen, scratching a little
in one place, becoming dissatisfied, and leaving it for another to gather the
worm. Settlement, however, was slow, so much so that it was full forty years
before any portion of the town began to assume the appearance of a village
and place of business. In 1791, the population was 167.

The town was organized and first town meeting held at the house of Owen
Brewster, March 29, 1790, with Jehiel Johns, moderator, at which Charles
Brewster was elected town clerk ; Amos Brownson, constable, and Ebenezer
Ambler, Ozum Brewster and Perley Starr, selectmen. The first justice was
Jehiel Johns, chosen in 1790, and the following year was also chosen the first
representative. The first born was Peleg, son of Elisha Bradley, November
6, 1786. The first marriage was that of Samuel Fargo to Lydia Johnson, at
the house of Abel Turner, by William Barber, of Hinesburgh, in 1790. The
first adult person who died here was Mrs. Keziah Brewster, wife of Dea.
Charles Brewster, April 10, 1790, aged sixty-six years. The first frame build-
ings erected were a dwelling-house and barn, built for Charles Brewster, Jr.,
in 1795. The next was a barn built for Ebenezer Ambler, in 1796. The
first mill was a grist and saw-mill built by Abel Turner, about the beginning
of this century, located in the southern part of the town on Huntington
220 TOWN OF HUNTINGTON,

 

 

River. Another saw-mill was erected about the same time, by Samuel
Buel, upon one of the tributary brooks empting into the river from the
east. Turner’s mill was ruined by a freshet in 1804. Another grist-mill was
built about this time for Orrin Polly, in the western part of the town, on a
brook which enters the town here from Hinesburgh, and was discontinued in
1819, and the power at the site used for a saw-mill. The first frame school
house was erected in 1806, and stood on the top of the high ridge over which
the road formerly passed between David Caswell’s and Sherman Hollow, and
opposite the ox-bow bend of the river below by which the road now runs, It
accidentally burned in 1808, and we have no knowledge of any other being
built till 1816, located at the south of the village. The first school was estab-
lished in 1794, in Ebenezer Ambler’s dwelling, within what is now District No.
3, with Dr. William Ambler, teacher. The first carpenters and joiners were
Josiah and Thomas Miller. Jonathan Dike was the first kitchen chair maker.
First man to work at the blacksmith’s trade, was James Weller. Rufus Williams
was the first tailor, and Benjamin Brownell the first resident shoemaker. The
first carding machine was built and started by Roswell Stevens, in 1821, at
the north village, where cloth dressing was also done. The first general
store was established at the house of Jacob Fargo, in 1801 or ’o2, as a branch
store of Ezra Meech & Co., of Charlotte. Ross & Conger started trade ina
new building erected partly for that purpose, in 1807. The first postoffice
opened in town was established near the commencement of this century, kept
at the house of Jabez Fargo, of which Fargo was postmaster. As it did not
quite pay its expenses, however, it was soon discontinued, and no other was
established until 1828, when one was opened at the south village, of which
Amos Dike was postmaster. In the fall of 1829, it was, on application to the
general department, removed to the north village, and Alexander Ferguson
appointed postmaster. An office was subsequently opened at the South vil-
lage. The first tavern in Huntington was opened by Jabez Fargo, who kept
it for many years, and nearly to the time of his death, in 1827. The next was
opened at the north village by Guerden Taylor, in 1826, being the same,with
some additions, now standing, called the Huntington House, with Edmond
T. Collins, proprietor. There is also a hotel kept at the Center, the Camel's
Hump House, with Gershom Conger, proprietor. This hotel is very pleasantly
situated, and the picturesque village, with its many pleasant drives, and ad-
jacent brooks stored with the finny tribe, together with its near vicinity to the
famous mountain from which it takes its name, renders it a very popular
summer resort. The first physician who made the town a place of residence
was Dr. William Ambler, brother of Ebenezer Ambler, mentioned previously,
he being also the first school teacher.

Dea. Charles Brewster, from Tinmouth, Vt.,came to this town in 1787,
and purchased lot 60, upon which he settled his son, Charles, Jr. He also
purchased a farm in a part of the town since set off to Richmond, upon
which he placed another son, Ozen, being the same now owned by the Tower
TOWN OF HUNTINGTON, 221

estate. Mr. Brewster then returned to Tinmouth where he remained until
his death. Charles, Jr., built the first frame buildings in the town, in 1795,
as previously mentioned, and which are now standing on the old Brewster
farm. After the death of her husband Mrs. Brewster removed from Tin-
mouth and took up her residence with Charles, where she died in 1790, aged
sixty-six years, being the first adult person who died in Huntington. Charles,
Jr., had a family of ten children, none of whom are now living. His son,
Charles, 3d, married Laura Crane, had a family of seven children, three of
whom are now living, the two sons, Byron and Henry, occupying the old
homestead. The other, a daughter, Fanny, married George Lewis, and
resides at thenorthvillage. The widow of Hiram, the eighth child of Charles,
Jr., is the only surviving member of the original family of Brewsters, she being
now seventy-six years of age, residing with her daughter, Ellen L. (Brewster)
Small. Numerous descendants of the family, however, reside in this and
adjoining towns. Hiram, above mentioned, served as an officer in the State
militia, being appointed ensign by Gov. Van Ness, in November, 1824. In
1826, for general diligence, etc., in his duties, he was promoted to a lieu-
tenantcy, and again, in 1828, he was made captain. He also held many of
the town offices, filling them acceptably and well.

John Fitch, from Hartford, Conn., located in Buel’s Gore in 1789. He
was a grandfather of Mrs. Adeline (Fitch) Remington, now residing with her
daughter, Mrs. Samuel J. Randall, on road 20. She is now sixty-nine years
of age and has resided upon this farm thirty-two years. Her husband, Phile-
mon Remington, died in February, 1880, aged sixty-six years.

John Thomas, from Tinmouth, Mass., came to Huntington in 1788 or
1789, and located on road 16, upon the farm now occupied by his grandson,
John Sprague. The old homestead has never left the possession of his de-
scendants.

Ira Sweet located in Buel’s Gore, in 1826, where he cleared a large farm,
now owned by O. W. Sweet, on road 35, upon which he resided until his
death, in 1878, aged seventy-eight years. He had a family of nine children,
four of whom are now living. The Gore not being organized into a town,
Mr. Sweet and a few of his neighbors united in building a school-house and
sustaining a school, until the adjoining towns were divided into districts,
when the children residing on the Gore attended school there.

George Small, from Tinmouth, Vt, came to Huntington in 1793, and
located upon the farm now owned by the Butler estate and occupied by S.
B. Ellis, on road 20. Mr. Small had a family of five children, three boys
and two girls, one of whom, Daniel B., now resides on road 32.

Nathaniel Pierce, from Hollis, N. H., came to this town in 1795, locating
on the east branch of Huntington River, in Buel’s Gore, where he remained
until his death, in 1821. His son, Truman, now owns and occupies a farm
on road 33, at the age of eighty-five years.

John Carpenter, from Wallingford, Vt., came to Huntington at an early

date, locating on road 29, upon the farm now owned by Daniel Tucker, of
Williston, and occupied by C. A. Higley. The site of the old log house, long
since torn down, is a few rods south of the present dwelling. He had a
family of eleven children, three of whom are now living in the town, Calvin
D., on road 20, Anna N., and Clarissa (Mrs. Noble Ross), on road 10. John
Carpenter, Jr., resided here until his death. His sons, D. J. and N. A,, are
still residents, D. J. on road 26, and N. A. on the old farm on road 28. His
mother also lives with him, being now seventy-eight years of age, and able to
do the work of a girl of eighteen.

Luman E. Loveland and Nathaniel Norton, from Otis, Mass., came into
this town in 1812, locating on road 30, upon the farm now owned by H. R.
Norton, the youngest son of Nathaniel, and where Nathaniel lived until his
death. Luman located upon the farm now owned by C. A. Higley, on road
29, in 1818. After residing in various parts of the town, he finally located
upon the farm now owned by D. J. Carpenter, and died there in 1842, having
been twice married and rearing afamily of twelve children. Two of his sons,
A. H. and Theodore, are now residing here. Henry R. Norton, Nathaniel’s
youngest son, who represented the town in 1878, tells us his father taught
school here some fourteen or fifteen years, and served in the war of 1812,
for which he was pensioned. Mr. Norton was also a Justice of the Peace
many years, and died at the advanced age of ninety years, possessing the
respect of a large number of acquaintances.

Abijah Ellis, from Fitzwilliam, N. H., brought his family to Huntington in
March, 1811, and located upon the farm now owned by Asa Gorton, on road
25, and upon which he continued to reside until his death. Of his family of
nine children, two only are now living, Abigail (Ellis) Buel, and Stillman.
Mrs. Buel, the widow of a near relative of Judge Buel’s, who was proprietor
of the tract of land known as Buel’s Gore, resides with her daughter, Mrs.
Polly (Buel) Andrews, wife of G. B. Andrews. Stillman was born in April,
1807, came to this town with his father, and subsequently married Olive T.
Rowles, of Shoreham, to whom was born one child, Edson W., who now re-
sides, together with his father, on road 20. Edson married Cordelia Aldrich,
in 1855, and has followed farming most of his life, until 1877, when he com-
menced trade as a general merchant. He has held the office of postmaster
since the spring of 1877.

Roswell Stevens, from Middlebury, came to this town in 1822, and located
upon the site now occupied by the Huntington Hotel. Three years subse-
quently he built the first dam across Huntington River at the north village, en-
gaging in the business until 1832, when his son succeeded him, and several
years after Emery Taylor purchased a half interest in the business, and it was
continued for many years under the firm name of Taylor & Stevens.

Peter Danforth came here in 1818, locating on road 35, upon the farm now
owned by John S. Purinton, and Samuel Wright in 1828, upon the farm now
owned by Harry Wright, also on road 35.
TOWN OF JERICHO, 223

 

Lyman White, from Wallingford, came to this town in 1843, remained one
year, then removed to Duxbury, Washington County, and remained eight or
nine years, then came back to Huntington and located on road 5, and subse-
quently removed to road 11, where he now resides,

Enoch Conger, from Danby, Vt., came to this town in 1847, and located on
road 28, with his family, consisting of wife and son, Gershom. Enoch died
in 1873, his wife in 1872. Gershom still resides here, proprietor of the Cam-
el’s Hump House.

The Baptist Church, located at Huntington Center, was organized by its
first pastor, Elder Daniel Bennett, May 17, 1828, with eight members. The
church building, a wood structure capable of seating 300 persons, was built
in 1861, at a cost of $2,500.00, and is now valued, including grounds, at
about $3,000.00. The society now has twenty members, with Rev. Ezra B.
Fuller as their acting pastor.

The Free Will Baptist Church has seventy-two members, with Rev.
Ezra B. Fuller, pastor.

The Methodist Episcopal Church, located at Huntington village, is pre-
sided over by Rev. A. O. Spoor, as pastor.

aY-ERICHO, lying in the central part of the county, in lat. 44° 27’, and
re long. 4° 4’, bounded northerly by Underhill, east by Bolton, south by
Richmond, southwest by Williston, and west by Essex, was granted by
New Hampshire, as a township of 23,040 acres, to Edward Burling, Thomas
Chittenden, and sixty-four others, in seventy-two shares, the charter being
dated June 7, 1763. The area allowed by charter was curtailed, however,
October 27, 1794, by taking about 5,000 acres from the southern angle of
the town, to form, with parts of Williston and Bolton, the township of
Richmond. By this arrangement Jericho lost a large amount of very fertile
land, and several of its most enterprising citizens.

The surface of the territory is quite uneven and hilly, though it has no
elevation of any considerable height. The hills, however, afford a very pleas-
ing diversity to the landscape, and together with the green valleys that lie
between, and the numerous clear sparkling streams that find their sources
among them, unite in forming many very beautiful points of scenery. The
soil is varied, from the most sterile and rocky surface-soil to the fine arable
alluvium of the beds along the several streams. The rocks that enter intoits
geological structure are an immense bed of ¢alcose conglomerate in the west-
ern, and Zalcose schist in the eastern or remaining part. These conglomerates,
however, contain a great variety of rocks in their composition, the most
abundant in this locality being quartz, limestone, and slate. The ¢adcose rock
belongs to the lower Silurian period, is from 2,000 to 3,000 feet thick, con-

tains no fossils, and in this locality no minerals. Numerous streams and
springs are found throughout the township, affording an abundant supply of
water. Winooski River washes the southwestern boundary. Brown’s River
enters the town at the northeast, from Underhill, and runs into Essex. Little
River, or Lee’s Brook, so-called, takes its rise in the east, and, running near
the center of the town, unites with Brown’s River at the village, in the west
part of the town. Mill Brook enters the township from Bolton, and runsinto
the Winooski about half way from Richmond to Essex. On all of these
streams are fine alluvial flats and good mill privileges, the best of the latter
being on Brown’s River. These numerous mill-sites have a tendency to make
Jericho more of a manufacturing town than most of its neighbors, while its
various soil, good climate, etc., render it not less valuable than they, in an
agricultural point of view, it being well adapted for raising most kinds of
grain and grass. Its timber, too, is various, though mostly beech, birch and
maple, interspersed with hemlock, cedar, pine and spruce, with some oak and
ash. For its products, both of the soil and the manufactory, it finds a ready
means of transportation in the Central Vermont R. R., which passes across
the southwestern corner of the territory, and also in the Burlington & La-
moille Railroad, which has stations at Jericho, Jericho Center, and Underhill
Flats.

In 1880, Jericho had a population of 1,687, was divided into twelve school
districts and contained twelve common schools, employing six male and four-
teen female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $1,598.80. There were 330
pupils attending school, while the entire cost of the schools for the year, end-
ing October 31st, was $2,197.79.

JERICHO, a post village and station on the B. & L. R. R., in the western
part of the town, is very handsomely situated on Brown’s River, where,
within a half-mile, are seven mill-sites, with an aggre-ate fall of one hundred —
feet, six of them being now in use. ‘This fact goes far toward making the
village what it is, a smart business-like little town, steadily growing in size,
and now containing a drug store, hardware store, tin shop, one grocery and
provision and three dry goods and general stores, blacksmith, boot and shoe,
painters, and other mechanics’ shops, three churches (Cong., Baptist and M.
E.), two lawyers, jeweler, printer, etc., a cornet band, and about 400 inhabit-
ants. It has also a pump and water-tubing manufactory, the shops of the
Jericho Chair Company, a grist and flouring-mill, butter-tub and cheese-box
manufactory, and two saw-mills. A large, handsome school building has
lately been erected, in which three schools are in successful operation. Last,
but not least, it also contains a fine, well-kept hotel, with a good livery
attached.

UNDERHILL FLats (Underhill p. 0.), located partly in this town and
partly in Underhill, contains a hotel, steam saw-mill, grist-mill, three churches
(Episcopal, Methodist and Cong.), two stores, one in Jericho and one in
Underhill, the Congregational church also being located in the Underhill part,

one drug store, one tin and hardware store, one wagon shop, two blacksmith
shops, one of which is in Jericho, a cheese factory, and about one hundred
inhabitants in the Jericho portion, and seventy-five in the part lying in
Underhill.

JERICHO CENTRE, a post village located, as its name implies, in the central
part of the town, contains one store, two churches (Cong. and Universalist),
a blacksmith shop, shoe and harness shop, and about twenty-five dwellings.
Here also is situated Jericho Academy, formerly a very popular institution,
erected in 1825, though it did not go into successful operation until March,
1827, when Simeon Bicknell, A. M., took it in charge, and under whose man-
agement the school attained a high reputation. He remained with the Acad-
emy until 1832, when he left, and with him left the energetic spirit of the
institution, which gradually lost its popularity until it finally ceased to exist,
in 1845. From that time up to about five years ago no enterprise was
attempted, when school was again opened in the old building. It met with
no particular success, however, and was given up again about a year ago.

Jericho Grist and Flouring Mill, \ocated on Brown’s River, was built about
twenty-five years ago, by James H. Hutchinson, who operated there about
eight years. They are now owned and operated by L. B. & F. Howe,
who do an extensive business in custom work, in addition to the manufacture
of flour,and meal from about 20,000 bushels of western corn, and 10,000
bushels of wheat per annum. The mills are furnished with four runs of
stones, and employ five men.

Horatio B. Barney's carding-mill, located at Jericho village, was established
by Truman Barney in the year 1819. Mr. Barney does a modest, yet thriving
business.

Spafford A. Wright's carriage manufactory and paint shop, also located at
Jericho village, was established by Mr. Wright in 1876, who does new work,
as well as carrying on a general repairing business.

The Jericho Chair Company, whose works are located on Brown’s River,
at the above mentioned village, was established by Henry M. Field and Simon
D. Bullock, in 1877, for the manufacture of cane-seat chairs. They now
manufacture about $60,000.00 worth per annum, employing thirty-five men.

Anson G. Field, Jr’s, wood-pump and water-tubing works, located on
Brown's River, at Jericho village, were established by Simon Davis in 1840,
he continuing the business until 1859, when it was taken by H. M. Field,
who continued it until 1875, when the present owner purchased the property.
In addition to the above mentioned manufacture, he also saws and planes
lumber, cutting about 700,000 feet per year. The whole business amounts
to a net value of $10,000.00 to $12,000.00 per annum, giving employment
to twenty-five men.

John Early's saw and grist-mill, located on Brown’s River, on road 2, was
built by Early & Gibbons, about the year 1874. Mr. Early now manu-

factures here about 200,000 feet of lumber, and does, in both branches of
the business, a general custom trade.

Whitcomb & Day's cheese-box manufactory and planing-mill, also located on
Brown’s River, near Mr. Early’s mill, was established by Thomas Buxton and
Charles Williamson, in 1874, and purchased by the present owners in 1876,
who now employ four men, and manufacture 15,000 cheese-boxes annu-
ally.

Underhill and Jericho cheese factory, located at Underhill Flats, in this
town, was built by the present owners, Edward S. Whitcomb and Buel H.
Day, 1873. The firm does an extensive business, manufacturing into cheese
the milk from 600 to 1,000 cows, annually.

The steam saw and grist-mill and handle manufactory, located near the
above mentioned factory, was built in 1877, andis now owned by a company
of thirteen men, with Buel H. Day as secretary and principal manager.
They manufacture plain lumber, do custom grinding, and also manufacture
all kinds of turned handles. Oflumber alone they cut annually 2,000,000
feet.

Julius C. Hodge's mitl,\ocated on Mill Brook, was built about thirty years
ago, destroyed by fire in May of 1880, and rebuilt in 1881, for sawing and
planing lumber, manufacturing cheese-boxes, grinding grain, and also for
manufacturing cider. The building stands on the corner of roads 50 and 51.

Mill Brook Cheese Factory, \ocated on the brook of that name, was built,
and is now owned and operated, by a stock company organized in 1874. It
uses the milk from 375 cows, manufacturing about 95,000 pounds of cheese
per annum.

Ezra Kinney's wheelwright and blacksmith shop, located on road 15, where
Mr. Kinney does a moderately profitable business, was originally built about
twenty-eight years ago, though destroyed by fire in 1875, and rebuilt in 1881.

Edgar A. Barney's saw and planing-mill, on road 17, upon Lee Brook, was
established in 1864. It manufactures annually, about 200,000 feet of lumber,
and also a considerable quantity of chair-stock.

Ansel Nash's grist, saw and cider-mitl, located on Mill Brook, was built
about twelve years ago. Mr. Nash saws 50,000 feet of lumber, and manu-
factures two hundred barrels of cider per annum, while the grist-mill, for
grinding feed only, does custom work.

Augustus 'S. Wood's rake manufactory and turning works, on Mill Brook,
were established about fifty years ago, and purchased by Mr. Wood, January
15, 1866. In November, 1879, the buildings were cestroyed by fire, and re-
built in 1880. Mr. Wood manufactures the Weymouth clothes bars, hand
rakes, and mop handles, also doing ornamental turning. The business
amounts to from $2,000.00 to 2,500.00 per year.

William S. Noyes's fork and rake-handle and chair stock manufactory,
located at Underhill Flats, employs fifteen men and turns out about 400,000
handles and $4,000 worth of chair stock annually.
TOWN OF JERICHO. 227

Nearly ten years after Governor Benning Wentworth placed his “sign
manuel” to the document which brought into existence the town whose title
heads this sketch, in 1774, three families from the western part of Massachu-
setts began their difficult journey “over into Jericho” through the trackless
wilderness, guided only by here and there a blazed tree, or by following the
course of some stream that cut like a silver thread the dense primeval forest.
These, the families of Messrs. Messenger, Rood and Brown, after many pri-
vations, at last reached their destination, and immediately took steps toward
erecting their humble homes, thus establishing the first white settlement in
the township. Mr. Brown located on the flatsnear Underhill, upon the banks
of the river that has since borne his name, his farm consisting of three hun-
dred acres of land, for which his wife had paid $300, and the same now
owned, and occupied, in part at least, by their grandson, Rufus Brown. Mr.
Messenger settled on the Winooski River, and near Mr. Rood. They were
soon after followed by several other families.

The pioneer’s anticipations of a quiet, peaceful home were soon to be dissi-
pated. The war against the mother country soon after broke out, rendering
not only the titles to their lands insecure, but their lives also were in jeop-
ardy. The settlers of Vermont, especially those of the northern portion,
were occasionally annoyed by Indians from the commencement to the ter-
mination of the war. Their encroachments were made by scouting parties,
whose pursuit was made for the acquisition of plunder and riotous entertain-
ments, while their unwelcome visits were obtruded among the distressed in-
habitants. The northern hive of Indians residing upon the Canadian frontier
poured in upon the wilderness territory, destroying the property and carrying
many of the luckless settlers into captivity.

Mr. Brown, with his family, consisting of a wife, a daughter, and two sons,
was not seriously molested during the fore part of the Revolution, and had
made such improvements on his land as to raise most of the necessaries of
life; but in the autumn of 1780, the family was surprised and made prisoners
by a party of Indians, who, after securing their prisoners, killed the cattle,
sheep and hogs belonging to them, set fire to the house, and started for Mon-
treal. The prisoners suffered much on their journey, from fatigue and hunger,
their principal food being raw bears meat. On arriving at St. Johns, they
were turned over to the British officers, and the captors received their bounty,
$8.00 per head, for them. For three years they were retained as nominal
prisoners, though they were in reality slaves, being obliged to serve their ex-
acting masters, receiving only the poorest of fare. At the time of their cap-
ture there was a young man by the name of Olds in the house with them,
who succeeded in escaping, and made his way to a block-house in the south-
ern part of the town, on Winooski River.

Some time previous to this, in 1776, Mr. Messenger had been advised to
take his family and leave for a place of greater safety, by Gen. Ira Allen.
This friendly advice Mr. Messenger heeded, and soon after started for Ben-
nington, where, after many trials, he arrived safely with his family.

 
228 . TOWN OF JERICHO.

Soon after the cessation of hostilities, in 1784, the Browns returned to their
possessions in Jericho, where they were speedily joined by others, so that in
1785, there were six enrolled freemen, which number was increased to twelve
during the following year ; and in 1791, the whole population numbered 381
souls. The first town meeting, warned by John Fasset, judge of the supreme
court, was held March 22, 1786, and James Farnsworth chosen moderator ;
Lewis Chapin, clerk; and Peter McArthur, constable. On the 13th of the
following month, at an adjourned meeting, Dea. Azariah Rood, Capt. Joseph
Hall, and Jedediah Lane, selectmen. November 29th of the same year, by
a permit from the general assembly at its session at Rutland in the previous.
October, Jedediah Lane was also chosen representative. The first justice was
James Farnsworth, chosen in 1787. Mr. John Lee, who died in 1789, was
the first person buried within the limits of the town. The first physician was
Matthew Cole, though he did not remain long in the town. Martin Post was.
the first lawyer.

Joseph Brown, the first settler, was born in Watertown, Conn., and came to
this town from Great Barrington, Mass. In exchange for his property in the
latter place, he received five hundred acres of land, situated where the village
of Stowe now stands. During the three years of his captivity, taxes had been
levied on this land as well as on the three hundred acres here, and accumu-
lated to such an extent that he was unable to pay them, and consequently
lost the property, retaining only a portion of that in Jericho, upon which he
again located. But outliving his hardships, however, he was able at his death
to leave his children a competence. Hisson Joseph, who was taken prisoner
with him, came back with his father, and died here in April of 1838, leaving
his property to his son Rufus, who now occupies the same.

Roderick Messenger, of Claverack, N. Y., who came during the same year,
after taking his family to Bennington, was employed by the council of safety
in defense of the settlers of the grants, and was stationed at a block-house on
his farm in Jericho, which was occupied as a military out-post till, upon the
approach of Burgoyne, the company stationed there retreated to meet the
enemy at Hubbardton and Bennington. After the war Mr. Messenger re-
occupied his farm, and was for along time postmaster and news-carrier for
the pioneers.

Dea. Azariah Rood, of Lanesboro, Mass., the other of the three, one of the
first six freemen, first selectman, first deacon, etc., died in 1795, leaving his
son, Thomas Drakely, to fill his place. Thomas became one of the most
respected citizens of the town, which he served in almost every responsible
civil position. In his old age he removed, with his youngest son, to Wiscon-
sin, where he died, in 1855, aged eighty-seven years.

Hon. Noah Chittenden, oldest son of Gov. Thomas Chittenden, born in
1753, was one of the early settlers of the town, and an opulent land owner.
He had entered public life previous to his coming to Jericho, and in 1785,
was sheriff of Addison County, while that county yet included Chittenden.
TOWN OF JERICHO. 229

Most of the original titles to land were lost by sheriff’s sale for taxes, and by
this means “Judge Noah” became the owner of about 2,000 acres. This
gave him great influence, and he was much employed in public business in
the town and county for many years, until his death, of apoplexy, in 1833.

Jedediah Lane, from Killingworth, Conn., was among the first permanent
settlers, one of the first six freemen registered, one of the first elected freemen,
and first representative. Many of his descendants are now residents of the
town and vicinity. He died here in 1818, aged seventy-seven years. His
son, Jedediah, who engaged in mercantile pursuits for a time, and many years
a teacher, was the first college graduate from Jericho.

John and Azariah Lee, from Saybrook, Conn., with their families, were
among the first settlers, locating on road 49, upon the farm now occupied
by Sylvanus Lee, great-grandson of Azariah. Solomon, the grandfather of
Sylvanus and son of Azariah, was eleven years old when he came here, and
died in 1848. John died a few years after their settlement here, in 1789,
aged fifty years. Lee Brook, and numerous descendents, remain to perpetu-
ate the name of the family.

John Lyman, from Salisbury, Conn., was one of the early settlers, and
located upon the farm now owned and occupied by his grandson, Charles H.
Lyman. Daniel, ason of John, is now living with Charles H., being eighty-
nine years of age.

Lewis and Ichabod Chapin, from Springfield, Mass., came to Jericho in
1784 or’85. Lewis settled at the Center, where he purchased 300 acres of
land, and soon became one of the principal men of the town, was chosen first
town clerk, serving in that office many years, and also served as representa-
tive, etc. He donated four acres of land for the site of the first meeting-
house, and afterwards gave the site of the academy, and also two acres for a
cemetery. Lewis died in 1827, aged seventy-two years. Lewis Chapin, Jr.,
born here, died in 1833, aged forty-one ' years. Milo H., son of Lewis, Jr.,
now resides on the old homestead, which has so long been in the possession
of the Chapin family.

William Smith, from Lanesboro, Mass., removed to this town after a short
residence in Essex, about 1785, locating on road 37, where his son John still
resides. Gordon, son of John, born here, still resides on the old homestead,
and has a family of three children, making three generations now living on
the place.

The First Congregational Church of Jericho.—The religious faith of most
of the early settlers of Jericho was after the Congregational school, a fact
readily to be accounted for in their having been born in the old Puritan State
of Massachusetts, and nurtured, as their fathers were before them, almost within
the orthodox shadow of old “Plymouth Rock.” To this, their new wilder-
ness home, they brought the old loved, formal religious code; but for many
years after their arrival they were too few in number and too poor in purse
to erect any suitable house of worship, or to secure aregular pastor. During
three years, meetings were held in private dwellings, barns, and often in the
open air, presided over by some member of the congregation, or by such

itinerant clergyman as chance or fortune led this way, or by ministers from
neighboring towns. In this way matters progressed until 1791, when the
first regularly organized church was established, through the agency of Rev.
Reuben Parmelee, of Hinesburgh. A small body it was though, consisting of
only nine members, but earnest and determined in their purpose. The Rev.
Ebenezer Kingsbury was the first regular pastor called to the charge, and to
him was given the “minister’s right” allowed by charter. In 1797, their
first church building was erected, a large, square-roofed, wooden structure,
near the center of the town and middle of the “Green,” a square of four
acres, donated for that purpose by Luther Chapin, and around which the
present village of Jericho Center has since been built. This edifice did ser-
vice until 1835, when the present brick building on the north side of the
“Green” took its place. In 1878, the house was thoroughly repaired, at a
cost of $4,000.00, and will now comfortably accommodate a congregation of
300 persons, and is valued at $4,500.00. The society at present has eighty
members, a good Sabbath school with an average attendence of ninety, and
is under the able charge of Rev. Austin Hazen.

The Calvary Episcopal Church of Underhill Flats.—Several families of the
early settlers were Episcopalians, as is attested by several entries in the early
town records. From them the northern part of the town where they resided
was called ‘Church Street,” and there, at an early date, a church was organ-
ized and maintained for a few years, under the ‘care of Rev. Bethuel Chitten-
den, of Shelburne, Rev. Reuben Garlick, M. D., and others; but, being few,
their organization was abandoned after a few years, until it was revived under
the ministration of Rev. Samuel Bostwick, in 1842, with a membership of
twelve families. In 1856, they erected a house of worship, of wood, capable
of seating 150 persons, and costing $2,000.00. The society now has twelve
members, under the pastoral charge of Rev. Gemont Graves, of Burlington.
The church building, including grounds, etc., is valued at about its original
cost.

Universalist Church.—The Thompsons, the Gloyds, and the Dows, to-
gether with several other of the early inhabitants of the town, were Universal-
ists. They had preaching of their doctrine early, but no religious edifice
until 1846, when the church at Jericho Center was erected. The society was
organized by its first pastor, Rev. Thomas Browning, February 18, 1843, with-
thirty-one members. Owing to removals and deaths, however, the society
property has become much run down, and they hold no meetings at present.

The Methodist Church of Jericho.—This denomination owes its existence
in this town, for many years, to Rev. Thomas Goodhue, of Ipswich, Mass.,
who removed to Underhill in 1805, and to this town in 1815, where he died
in 1850, aged eighty-five years, having continued to preach occasionally until
eighty years of age. In 1805, there were but three Methodists in the town-
ship, Elias Hale, his wife, and Elias Nash. They invited Mr. Goodhue to
preach to them, and from that date the denomination increased in numbers

and influence to the present time. It has now to8 members, under the able
charge of Rev. Joseph W. Gurnsey, with two houses of worship, one at Un-
derhill Flats and one at Jericho Corners, though both are within the limits of
the town. They will each comfortably accommodate 200 persons, and are
unitedly valued at $6,000.00.

The First Baptist Church.—The Baptist church in this town was sepa-
rated from that of Essex, in 1817, and organized on the 21st of April of that
year. Rev. Mr. Andem was installed as their first pastor, and was with them
along time. They had no regular place of worship until 1825, when the
academy was built at Jericho Center, the lower story of which was occupied
as a place of meeting half the time. In 1826, the brick structure at Jericho
village was built by the Baptists and the Second Congregational church, and
occupied by them on alternate Sundays till 1858, when the Baptists built their
present wood structure, costing $4,000.00, capable of seating 360 persons,
and now valued at $6,000.00. The church has at present sixty-seven mem-
bers, with Rev. DeForest Safford, pastor, and has also a Sabbath school
with an average attendance of thirty-two scholars.

The Second Congregational Church of Jericho, located at Jericho village,
was originally organized in 1826, though it was reorganized, December to,
1874, and the building re-dedicated in 1877. Of its early organization, etc.,
little can be learned, owing to the loss of the early records. The building
was erected by the Congregational and Baptist societies, in 1826, and used
by both until 1858, when the Baptists erected a new building, and this society
retained the old one, which has since been repaired, however, at a cost of
$3,500.00, and is now a comfortable structure with accommodations for 180
persons, and valued at $5,000.00. The society is at present in a prosperous
condition, with sixty-seven members, under the pastoral charge of Rev. J. D.
Emerson. It has also a flourishing Sabbath school with 133 scholars.

i
d 28 Jat. 44° 38’, and long. 3° 55’, bounded north by Georgia, in Franklin

County, east by Westford, south by Colchester, and west by Lake
Champlain. It was granted by New Hampshire, to Albert Blake and sixty-
three others, the charter being signed by the governor, Benning Wentworth,
June 8, 1763, granting 27,616 acres. This area remains to-day as granted at
that time, no changes having been made in the boundary lines.

The surface of the township is rather uneven, not enough so to render cul-
tivation of the soil impracticable, but sufficient to lend a charming diversity to
the landscape ; which fact, coupled with the delightful climate, attracts num-
bers of pleasure-seekers during the heated season. Many excellent camping
grounds and summer resorts are sustained, of which more anon. ‘The eastern

portion of the territory is elevated some two or three hundred feet above the
general level of the other portions, thus affording many excellent points of
view over the charming lake and beautiful stretch of country that skirts it.
A sand bar, leading from the southwestern part of the town to South Hero,
in Grand Isle County, renders the lake fordable between the two towns dur-
ing a great portion of the year. In 1849~ 50, there was a toll bridge built
on this bar, connecting the two towns, at a cost of $25.000.00, which
renders communications between them tolerably good at all seasons
of the year. The principal elevations are Cobble Hill in the southern,
and Rattle Snake Hill in the northern part, having an altitude of 800
to 1,000 feet. The township is watered by the Lamoille River, which
flows in a serpentine course through the town from northeast to southwest,
having many tributaries, and a number of small streams whose waters are
discharged into Lake Champlain, affording many mill privileges, and furnish-
ing ample irrigation to the soil. Two ponds of some note are also found,
one, Long Pond, situated in the northwestern portion of the town, is about a
mile in length, by twenty to sixty rods in width, while the other, Round Pond,
about half the size of the former, is situated a little to the east of it. Another
small body of water is found in the northeastern part of the town.

The soil of the territory is excellent, varying in different localities, from the
stiffest clay to fine productive alluvium, producing crops of wheat, oats, rye,
buckwheat, Indian corn, etc., whose percentage is excelled by perhaps no
town in the State. The timber is that found in most of the lake towns of the
county, pine predominating ; indeed, about half of the township was once
covered with a heavy growth of this valuable timber, a great portion of which
has long since found its way to the lumber market, though there is consider-
able yet standing. The rocks entering into the geological structure of the
town are various. Along the lake shore, extending inland from one to two
miles, ved sandrock predominates; next to this, in a wedge shape, several
miles in width on the north and a half mile on the south, is found a large bed
of Georgia slate ; this slate-rock is in turn skirted on the east by a vein of
Lolian limestone, having a mean width of perhaps two miles, while the residue
of the territory is composed of ¢alcose conglomerate. Quarries of very fair
marble exist, though none have ever been worked to any extent. Iron ore
prevails to some extent, of a good quality, but not in quantities sufficient to
warrant remunerative working. Taken as a whole, husbandry in its various
phases constitutes the principal wealth and occupation of the inhabitants.
Nature has been especially kind in her gifts to the territory in this respect,
giving a fine soil, even temperature, etc., to promote the husbandman’s in-
terests, while the products of his toil find a ready means of transportation to
populous marts, in the Vermont and Canada Railroad, which passes through
the eastern part of the town from north to south, with a depot near Milton

Falls.
In 1880, Milton had a population of 2,006, was divided into eleven school

districts and contained eleven common schools, employing five male and
nineteen female teachers, to whom was paid an aggregate salary of $1,886,-
10. There were 436 pupils attending these schools, while their entire cost
for the year, ending October 31st, was $2,241.04. Mr J. H. Woodward was
school superintendent.

Mitton Fats (Milton p. o.), a beautifully located post village, lies in the
western part of the town, on the Lamoille River, and is also a station on the
Vermont and Canada Railroad. It receives its name from the falls in the
river at this point, which are not only a rare specimen of the handiwork of
nature, but also constitute one of the finest mill-sites in the State. The
river falls 150 feet in a distance of fifty rods, while near the center of the
cataract the waters are divided by a small island, which turns them, rushing
down on either side with great violence, dashing the spray high into the air,
as they come in contact with some projecting rock, until it may indeed be
said :—

“Tt seeths and it hisses, and bubbles and roars,
As when fire with water is commixed and contending.”

The village itself is handsomely laid out, has a good class of buildings, and
is especially noticeable for its general air of neatness and goodorder. That
the inhabitants are both intellectually and religiously inclined, is attested by
the three church spires that point towards Heaven (Meth.,Cong., and Cath.),
and the fine graded school, employing four competent teachers. Business en-
terprise, too, is represented by ten stores, two hotels, three blacksmith shops,
a grist and saw-mill, wagon shop, etc. The village contains about seven hun-
dred inhabitants.

West MILTOov, a post village, located on the Lamoille River, in the western
part of the town, contains one store, a blacksmith shop, one church (Union),
a butter and cheese factory, etc., and about twenty dwellings.

CHECKERBERRY VILLAGE, a hamlet located in the central part of the town,
contains a hotel, store, one church (Meth.), a school-house and about a dozen
dwellings. The Checkerberry Hotel, now owned by John D. Gale, was
built previous to 1800, and has always been used for hotel purposes.

Mitton BoroucH is a small hamlet located in the northwestern part of
the town.

The Lamoille Valley Butter and Cheese Factory, \ocated at West Milton,
was built by a stock company in 1868, and is now owned by E. W. Peck, of
Burlington, who uses the milk from 350 cows.

Clark's saw and grist-mills, located at Milton Falls, were erected by
Joseph Clark, in 1845, and are now owned and operated by his son, Jed P.
Clark. The saw-mill, which originally had an up-and-down saw, is now sup-
plied with circular and gang saws, affording capacity for cutting 3,000,000 feet
of lumber per year, though but about 600,000 feet are manufactured, em-
ploying 15 men. The grist-mill operates six runs of stones, and is run as 4
custom flouring-mill.

Clark's Carriage Manufactory, also located at this village, is engaged in
manufacturing all kinds of carriages and sleighs.

Brown's Brick Yards, located, one at Mallett’s Bay in the town of Col-
chester, and one at Milton, were established by J. W. Brown, in 1857, and
are now owned and operated by J. W. & H. W. Brown. They employ about
fifty men during the summer season, manufacturing 4,000,000 brick.

Marrs Cheese Factory, located in the southeastern part of the town, on
road 57, was established by a stock company in 1868, who now manufacture
cheese from the milk of about 250 cows.

Milton Borough Cheese Factory, located in the northern part of the town,
on road 4, was established by a stock company in 1870. The factory is at
present used by Henry L. Wood for his dairy of forty-two cows.

Camp Rich, a summer resort located in the western part of the town, on
Lake Champlain, was established by Charles Rich in 1874, and is now one
of the finest resorts on the lake. Mr. Rich built a handsome boat-house
in 1879, which is well supplied with boats. He has excellent accommoda-
tions for boarders and tenters.

Camp Watson, also very pleasantly located on the lake shore, was estab-
lished in a small way in 1869, by Hiram Atkins, of Montpelier, editor of the
Argus, who leased the grounds of the present owners, Grace and Lucius
Watson, in 1879, for a period of five years. There is a camp and boat-house,
but no hotel, it being used as a tenting ground.

Camp Everest, located on the lake shore near road 274, owned by Z. A.
Everest and A. W. Austin, was established in 1878. The camp-house, built
during that year, is a building 20x26 feet in size, having a bowling alley 78x14
feet and a good boat-house attached. The camp is mostly the resort of
campers and picnic parties, though the proprietors have accommodations for
a few boarders.

The town poor farm, containing 205 acres, is very pleasantly situated
on the banks of the Lamoille River, opposite Checkerberry village, and com-
mands a fine view of the river and falls. It has been under the efficient
management of Mr. George W. Eighmy for the past three years, who for sev-
eral years had charge of the union farm in Williston. He shows good judg-
ment in the manner in which he conducts it, and in his treatment of the
unfortunates who reside there.

No effort was made towards the settlement of the town until after the
close of the Revolution, when, February 15, 1782, William Irish, Leonard
Owen, Amos Mansfield, Absalom Taylor, and Thomas Dewey commenced
their pioneer life here. These were soon after joined by Gideon Hoxsie,
Zebediah Dewey, Enoch and Elisha Ashley, and others, whose numbers were

Many of the early settlers turned their attention to cutting and preparing

the pine timber for the Quebec market, whither it was floated through the

waters of Lake Champlain, and the rivers Sorel and St. Lawrence. After the
Champlain Canal was completed in the State of New York, much of this tim-
ber found its way to New York. This traffic became so extensive that the
forests soon melted away, and the inhabitants turned their attention to agri-
cultural pursuits instead, causing the town to become one of the leading ones
of the county in farming interests.

In 1788, it was deemed that the population was sufficiently large to war-
rant the organization of the town by election of proper town officers. Ac-

246 TOWN OF MILTON,

 

Joseph Clark, one of the most prominent and influential men who ever resid-
edin Milton, was born in Addison County, Vt., February 2, 1795. Atthe age
of five or six years he removed with his parents to Madison County, N. Y.,
where he resided until about eighteen years of age, when, after a short resi-
dence in the northern part of the State, he returned to Vermont, and subse-
quently, about the year 1816, located in Milton, at the village, where he re-
mained until his death, May 17, 1879. Here he became extensively engaged
in lumbering and merchantile pursuits, amassing a large fortune. When the
Vermont & Canada Railroad received its charter, he, together with John
Smith (father of Ex-Gov. Smith), and Lawrence Brainerd, became a prime
mover in the enterprise, having at one time his entire fortune invested. He
was a director of that road, and subsequently a director and trustee of the
Central Vermont R. R. He also held many public trusts, all of which he
conducted with honor and intelligence. Possessed of great firmness and ex-
ecutive ability, he yet had a nature that won for him many friends throughout
the State, and the respect and confidence of all. He was united in matn-
mony with Lois Lyon, of Colchester, who bore him six children, four of whom
reached a mature age. His son, Jed P., now occupies the old homestead, and
is one of the most prominent men of the town. As early as 1858, Jed P.

Albert Gallatin Whittemore was born at White Creek, N. Y., January 16,
1797, the son of John and Abigail Whittemore, the latter being a daughter
of Gideon Olin, of Shaftsbury, Vt., and half-sister of Judge Abram Olin, late
of Washington, D. C. His parents came to St. Albans, Vt., in 1799, and he
there received his early education. While at school, in September, 1814, he
joined the volunteers on their way to the battle of Plattsburgh, crossing the
lake in a row-boat. He first studied law with Hon. Stephen P. Brown, of
Swanton, and next with Hon. Heman Allen, of Milton, completing his
course with Judge Aldis, of St. Albans, and was admitted to practice March
16, 1821, at the Franklin County court. He first opened an office at South
Hero, but came to Milton in 1824, where he gained a large practice and was
extremely successful. He married Abbie Clark, September 14, 1826, and re-
sided on the home farm of her parents at Checkerberry village until his
death. He often held official positions in town, and was State’s attorney for
the county; represented Milton in the legislature four terms, and, in 1851,
was county senator. The Sand Bar bridge was constructed by Mr. Whitte-
more in connection with Samuel Boardman, Esq., in 1849 and 1850, which
remains a permanent monument totheirmemory. Aboutthis time he became
interested in railroad enterprises, and was an earnest advocate of the extension
of the Rutland & Burlington R. R. to Swanton, and predicted, as has since come
to pass, that a road upon the New York shore would be built within twenty-five
years, if the charter was rejected. In 1852, he was associated with Messrs.
T. D. Chittenden, John Bradley and N. L. Whittemore, in the construction of
a large portion of the Central Ohio R. R., and on the roth of November of
that year was accidently killed at Zanesville, O., by a blow from an iron bar

F, Whittemore, an attorney of New York, lately deceased, Don Juan Whit-
temore, of Milwaukee, chief engineer of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
R. R, and Albert G. Whittemore, an attorney of Burlington. He was a
thorough student, a lawyer of strict integrity and rare ability, and an excel-
lent advocate and public speaker. He was a man of untiring energy, pos-
sessing public spirit, independent judgment, and was foremost in educational
matters and all public improvements. His loss was deeply mourned by his
townsmen and a large circle of friends throughout the State.
248 TOWN OF MILTON.

 

Amos Ives, from Wallingford, Conn., came to this town about the year

tin. His family consisted of his wife and one daughter, Samantha. The
daughter married Alfred Ladd, who died February 23, 1882, aged eighty-
eight years. She now lives with her son, E. L. Ladd, in Georgia, at the age

chant at Milton village, where he has been engaged in trade for the past six-
teen years. Amos, her father, died in 1867, aged eighty-nine years.

The First Congregational Church, \ocated at Milton Falls, was organized
September 21, 1804, by Rev. Lemuel Hayes and James Davis, with fifteen
members. Until 1807, the church was supplied with only occasional preach-
ing; but on September 23d of that year, Rev. Joseph Cheeney was constitut-
edits pastor by a council composed of Revs. P. V. Bogue, James Parker, and
Benjamin Wooster and their delegutes. The first house of worship was erect-
ed in 1806 or 1807, the expense being mostly sustained by Judge Noah Smith,
who also gave to the society the land adjoining, for a cemetery. A second
building was constructed in 1825, a few rods north of the first, and destroyed
by fire in 1840. The present building was erected in 1841, upon the site of
the former, at a cost of about $16,000.00. It comfortably seats four hundred
persons, and is valued, including grounds, at about its original cost. The
society now has ninety-five members, with Rev. J. H. Woodward, pastor.

The Methodist Episcopal Church of Milton.—This society was organized at
an early date, and supplied with itinerant preachers for a time, until Rev. E.
B. Huff was appointed their first regular pastor. The society now has a
large membership, with Rev. Robert E. Chrystie, as pastor. It has three
houses of worship, one at Milton Borough, one at West Milton, and another
at Milton Falls. The building at West Milton was erected in 1831, and
thoroughly repaired and moderized in 1859. The expense was borne in
union with the Congregational society, and they both now occupy it, each on
alternate Sundays. The edifice at the Borough was built in 1860. It is a
wood structure capable of seating 300 persons, and is valued at $2,000.00. A
brick building was constructed at the Falls in 1841, and destroyed by fire in
July, 1868, when it was superceded by the present wood structure, which
will seat 300 persons, and is valued at $4,000.00.

St. Anne's Catholic Church, located at Milton Falls, was organized by
Bishop DeGoesbriand, who acted as its first pastor, in 1859. Their church
was built during the same year, a pleasant, commodious brick structure,
capable of seating 300 persons. The society now has 300 communicants,
with Rev. Charles Prevost, pastor.

The Trinity Episcopal Church, located at Milton village, was organized by
Rev. George T. Chapman, D. D., in the winter of 1831, with about twenty
communicants. It never has had an edifice of its own, but has worshiped in
the town-hall, school-house, and hotel parlors. For nearly twenty years,
owing to adverse circumstances, services were suspended, to be resumed

again, in 1867, by the Rev. John A. Hicks, D. D., of Burlington, since which
time they have been sustained by different missionaries. The society now
has about seventeen members, under the charge of Rev. Gemont Graves, of
Burlington.

Je tcevon, located in the central part of the county, in lat. 44° 24’,
fa and long. 4° 4’, bounded north by Jericho, east by Bolton, south by
3: Huntington and Hinesburgh, and west by Williston, is the only town in
the county, except South Burlington, whose charter was not granted by New
Hampshire. It has an area of about 20,000 acres, chartered by the legisla-
ture of Vermont, October 27, 1794, formed by taking a portion of the adjoin-
ing towns of Jericho, Bolton, Huntington, and Williston, an addition from
Bolton having also been made, October 25, 1804.

The township is generally uneven and broken in surface, especially in the
northern, northwestern, and western parts, though it contains many broad,
verdant meadows, level as a house floor, which serve to enhance the beauty
of the scenery, as well as the value of the territory.

The soil, too, like the scenery, is various, though generally rich and pro-
ductive. Along the Winooski it is a fine alluvial deposit, while in the hilly
and other portions it is composed of clay, gravelly loam, and marl. The
hilly land is fertile and well adapted to grazing, affording pasturage to many
herds. The timber is principally beech, birch, hemlock, pine, spruce, maple
and elm, immense forests of which were originally standing, and much is still
left, though it is gradually decreasing in quantity before the onslought of the
woodman. The rocks are principally of the sandrock and slate formation.
Many boulders, relics of the drift period, are also resting on the surface. Iron
ore has been discovered and worked to some extent, making a very good
quality of iron, though it has not been wrought for years. Some fossils, also,
have been found, the most notable of which is the tusk of an elephant, now
resting in the museum of the University of Vermont, dug up by Col. Rolla
Gleason, from the muck in a swamp on the top of Bryant’s Hill. The
Winooski forms the water course of the township, flowing in a northwesterly
course through its center, into which flows numerous tributaries, some of
which afford good mill-sites. Two small ponds are also found, Jackson and
Gillett. Jackson Pond lies in the northeastern part of the town, covering
an area of about twenty-five acres. Gillett Pond, lying in the southeast-
ern part, is a handsome little sheet of water, about a mile in length by a
quarter of a mile in width. Taken all in all, Richmond, though a farming
town, will compare favorably with any of the towns in the county in point of
wealth and natural facilities. Its products find a ready means of transporta-
tion in the Vermont Central Railroad, which passes through the town, fol-

lowing the northern bank of the Winooski, with two stations, one at Rich-
mond and the other at Jonesville.

In 1880, Richmond had a population of 1,264, was divided into seven
school districts and contained ten common schools, employing five male and
nine female teachers, to whom was paid an aggregate salary of $1,319.00,
There were 263 pupils attending common schools, while the entire cost of
the schools for the year, ending October 31st, was $1,470.00, with Mr. C. B,
Towers, superintendent.

RICHMOND, a post village located in the central part of the town, on the
Winooski River, and also a station on the Central Vermont Railroad, con-
tains three churches (Union, Universalist, and Catholic), one hotel, ten
stores, a wagon shop, paint shop, harness shop, etc.

JONESVILLE (p. 0.), a hamlet located in the extreme eastern part of the
town, contains one store, a blacksmith shop, spool-turning works, and about
a half dozen dwellings.

S. & R. J. Robinson's turning, grist, and cider-mill, located on road 23,
was established in 1868, and is now doing a very good busines, using twenty
cords of wood per month in their turning-shop, and manufacturing twenty-five
bbls. of cider per day during the season, while the grist-mill does custom
grinding.

Stephen Freshette's carriage manufactory, \ocated at the village, was estab-
lished in 1857. Mr. Freshette came into possession of the property in 1881.
He employs two men, and manufactures all kinds of carriages, wagons, and
sleighs.

ff. H. Frary’s spool-turning shop, \ocated at Jonesville, was established in
1866. He now uses 4oo cords of wood per annum in the manufacture of his
goods.

Mason's Cheese Factory, located on road 16, manufactures cheese from the
milk of 140 cows, making 42,000 lbs. per annum. The factory has gained
some little notoriety from the fact of several of the largest hotels in the
United States ordering goods directly from it.

The first effort towards the settlement of the town was made by Amos
Brownson and John Chamberlin, who came here with their families in 1775,
and located upon what has since been called Richmond Flats, on the south
side of the Winooski, in the part then included within the town of Williston.
Their stay was short, however, as they abandoned the town during the follow-
ing fall, and did not return until after the close of the Revolution. In
1784, they again resumed settlement upon their farm, being accompanied by
Asa and Joel Brownson, Samuel and Joshua Chamberlin, James Holly,
Joseph Wilson, and Jesse McFairlain.

In 1786, the first settlement in the southern part of the town, then included
within the limits of Huntington, was commenced by Ozem Brewster and
Daniel Robbins. In the tracts along the southern side of the Winooski,
between Jonesville and Richmond village, settlements were first commenced
TOWN OF RICHMOND. 251

by Amos Brownson, Jr., Matthew Cox, Jesse Green, William Douglas, Bar-
ley and Comfort Starr, Clement Hoyt, James and Peter Crane, James Hall,
and Nathaniel and Asa Alger. The first in the western part of the town
was made by Asa Brownson and Nathan and Henry Fay. On the northern
side of the river, one of the first settlements was made by Joseph Hall.

Thus, from time to time, families came in and made improvements on their
possessions, until, in 1795, it was considered by the inhabitants that the popu-
lation was large enough to sustain a proper town government. Accordingly,
a meeting was warned and held in pursuance of said warning, in March of
that year, at which the following officers were elected: town clerk, Joshua
Chamberlin ; constable, Constant C. Hallock ; selectmen, Felen Augar, Ben-
jamin Farnsworth, and Peter Crane; justices, Joel Brownson, Asa Brown-
son, Jr., and Benjamin Farnsworth. Jonathan Chamberlin was the first rep-
resentative, chosen the year following the first town meeting, in 1796.

The first deed recorded in the town records is a quit-claim of one third of
one hundred acres of land, by Amos Brownson to Joshua Chamberlin, in con-
sideration of twelve pounds, lawful money, and dated March 7, 1795. The
second entry that appears is of 120 acres, deeded to Gov. Thomas Chitten-
den by Abram Smith, in consideration of thirty pounds, lawful money, dated
April 28, 1795.

The first physician permanently located in Richmond was Dr. Matthew
Cole, who died here in 1809. He was succeeded by Drs. Seth Cole, Sylvanus.
Church, Reuben Nims, William Foss, Carlos Allen, James M. Knox, G. P.
Conn, and others.

The first lawyer was Harry Brownson, succeeded by William P. Briggs,
William S. Hawkins, Edward A. Stansbury, Aaron B. Maynard, B. E. B.
Kennedy, F. A. Colton, Joseph W. Allen, P. K Glud, and others.

Those who have figured as business men in Richmond—as merchants,
manufacturers, and mechanics, may be mentioned Nathan Fay, who carried
on the business of carding wool and cloth-dressing, at Fay’s Corners, said to
have been the first works of the kind in the county. Silas Rockwell carried
on tanning, currying and shoemaking at the same locality. William Rhodes
was a blacksmith and manufactured plows about the beginning of this
century. Isaac Gleason was the first merchant, and carried on business for
many years near the ‘‘old round church.” On the north side of the river,
near the depot at Richmond village, Winslow & Gay were early engaged in
trade, and D. P. Lapham & Co. were their successors. One Dumfries had
a hatter’s shop here as long ago as 1817, which was destroyed by fire. The
first grist-mill was built by John Preston, about the beginning of the present
century, located on Huntington River. A carding machine and clothier’s
works were built at the same locality by James H. Judson, in 1815, which
was destroyed by fire in 1819, afterwards rebuilt by Daniel Fisk. Joseph
Whipple built a saw-mill lower down the river, early in the century. After-
wards another cloth manufactory was built by Marcus Robbins & Co.

Jonathan Clossin, from Connecticut, came to Richmond at an early day,
and located upon the farm now occupied by W. S. Freeman, where he re-
mained but a short time, owing to the unsettled condition of affairs attend-
ing the Revolution. He remained away about two years, then returned, but
found the land he had taken up occupied by another; so he located on road
5, upon the farm now occupied by J. Humphrey, his grandson by marriage,
Mr. Humphrey came into the town from Brookfield, Vt., in 1800, and located
off road 5, with a family of nine children. William Humphrey located upon
the farm now owned by his son Jesse. He served three years in the Amer-
ican army during the war of 1812, enlisting as a private and subsequently
being promoted to acorporalship. He lived to be over seventy-five years of
age.

Asa Brownson, with his family, came to Huntington in 1786. His daugh-
ter, Polly, married Samuel Kenyon, and lived and died upon the farm now
owned by B. S. Kenyon.

Henry Fay, whose father, John Fay, was killed at the battle of Bennington,
was born at Bennington in 1774, and died in Richmond in 1818, leaving a
family of ten children, of whom one, Jonathan, now resides on road 11, aged
seventy-eight years. Henry and Nathan Fay, as previously mentioned, were
a number of years engaged in the clothier’s business, at Fay’s Corners.

Jesse Green, from Gordon, N. H., came to Richmond about the year
1800, and followed farming here during the remainder of his life. He hada
family of seven children, only two of whom remained in Richmond. _ Jesse,
Jr., the fourth child, was a resident of the town seventy-four years. He also
had a family of seven children, three of whom, Oliver, Iddo, and Olive (Mrs.
Samuel Randall), now reside here.

Dudley Higley located in the southern part of this town about the year
1800. He reared a family of eleven children, only one of whom, Jerry, set-
tled in the town. Jerry hada family of eight children, of whom Nathan,
residing on road 33, was the fourth.

Ebenezer Flagg, from Orwell, Vt., came to Richmond in 1800, locating in
the southern part of the town, where he resided until his death, aged seventy-
four years. Of his eleven children, one only, Artemas, remained here. He
died in 1874, aged eighty-four years. He had a family of five children, three
of whom remained in Richmond. Azariah, the second of these, born in
1830, is still a resident.

Jesse Thompson, an early settler and heavy land-owner in Jericho, came
there from Alstead, N. H., in 1790. Corey, the sixth of his nine children,
has resided for the past twenty-six years in this town, upon the farm he now
occupies, on road 29.

Isaac B. Andrews emigrated from Connecticut about the year 1785, and
located in the southern part of this town, where he remained until his death,
in 1849. He had a family of nineteen children, two of whom, Ezra B. and
Elisha, now reside here, the latter born in 1808, and the former in 1824.
TOWN OF RICHMOND, 253

 

Samuel Kenyon came to this town about the year 1820, and located where
his son, Brazilla S., now resides. Mrs. F. Thompson and Brazilla are the
only ones of his four children now residing here.

Solomon Bates, from New Hampshire, came to this town previous to the
year 1800, locating in the central part, upon the farm now owned by his.
grandson, Martin M.

Asa Rhodes, from North Adams, Mass., came to this town in 1817, with
his father, Asa, locating on road 11, upon the farm still in possession of the
Rhodes family. C. P. Rhodes, son of Asa, was born in 1827, and now
resides on road 11,

John Wilhams, from Swanzey, N. H., immigrated to this town in 1814, locat-
ing on road 32, upon the farm now occupied by his son, B. A. Williams.
William Williams now resides on road 6, in the northeastern part of the town.

E. B. Green, born in Cheshire, Mass., in November, 1805, came to Rich-
mond in 1829, and was engaged in mercantile pursuits in company with Wil-
liam Rhodes, remaining in the business a number of years. Mr. Green still
is a resident of the town, on road 17. He has buried four children, one of
whom, Everett D., was drowned while serving his country in the late war, at
Georgetown, D. C.

E. D. Mason, from Cheshire, Mass., came to this town in 1830, and located
on road 24, where he resided until his death, February 1, 1882. He wasone
of the prime movers in establishing the Vermont Dairymen’s Association, and
held the office of president of the same. He did much towards raising the
standard of the town in dairy products, with what success may be inferred
from the fact that when he came here, the annual amount of cheese manu-
factured did not exceed one ton, while it now reaches about three hundred
tons. Mr. Mason also served the town in many of its public offices, with
honor and ability.

Rev. Thomas Browning, the eldest of the thirteen children of Joseph and
Lucy (Sherman) Browning, was born at Rutland, Mass., March 21, 1787, and
died in Richmond, Vt., March 12, 1875, thus lacking but nine days of being
eighty-eight years of age. When Thomas was but eight years of age, his
father removed to Barre, Vt. His earliest religious faith was that of the
Methodist church, but his inquisitive spirit and eager thirst for knowledge of
divine things, were not satisfied until he embraced the doctrine of Universal
Redemption. This faith, indeed, he held previous to his formal connection
with the Methodist church, and he joined it with the distinct understanding
that he should continue to hold to his new doctrine, and was often urged to
abstain from advocating it from the pulpit. He began to preach in October,
1823, in Barre, Vt., in his thirty-seventh year. He was ordained October 4,
1827, moved to Waterbury, Vt., in May, 1832, and in May, 1834, came to
Richmond. He held many civil offices during his long life here, and once
represented the town in the legislature. He was married January 12, 1812,
to Miss Persis Ross, who bore him ten children, one of whom, Miss Persis
W. Browning, now resides on road 17.

The Union Church, \ocated on the south side of the Winooski, at Rich-
mond village, was built in 1813, by the united efforts of four societies. From
its polygonal form, having sixteen sides, it has long been known as the “Old
Round Church.” It has not been occupied as a church for years, and is now
used for town purposes. Its original cost was $3,000.00.

Our Lady of the Rosary Roman Catholic Church, \ocated at the village,
was organized by Bishop DeGoes-
briand, in 1854. Rev. James
Queen was the first pastor. The
church building, a wood structure
capable of seating 400 persons,
was erected in 1856, at a cost of
$4,000.00, and is now valued at] _
$7,000.00. The society has at |

(CHURCH OF THE RESTORATION.)

(GU HELBURNE, a small lake town in the southwestern part of the county,

lying in lat. 44° 23', and long. 3° 49’, bounded north by South Burling-
@ ton and a portion of Williston, east by St. George, south by Charlotte
and a portion of Hinesburgh, and west by Lake Champlain, was chartered
by New Hampshire, August 18, 1763, to Jesse Hallock and sixty-four asso-
ciates, receiving its name in honor of a noted nobleman of the English Par-
liament, the Earl of Shelburne, who favored the claim of New Hampshire to
the disputed territory of Vermont, and opposed the claim of New York.
According to the charter, the territory was to have an area of 23,500 acres,
or a tract a little over six miles square; but owing to a blunder on the part
of the surveyors, it was shorn of a large portion of its possessions. Two
parties were employed to survey the lake towns, one party commencing at
TOWN OF SHELBURNE. 255

the south, working north, and the other commencing on the north, working
south, and met at Burlington and Shelburne. The party on the north sur-
veyed Burlington, and that on the south surveyed Shelburne, neither know-
ing precisely where the other had fixed their boundaries. In consequence,
they lapped over each other’s survey, and Burlington having been chartered
a month previous to Shelburne, held her claim by priority of charter. A
portion of Pottier’s Point formerly belonged to Burlington, but in 1794, con-
siderable alteration was made in town lines by the Legislature, and the whole
of the Point was declared to belong to Shelburne. Again, November 9,
1848, a portion of this town was set off to St. George, so that instead of the
original 23,500 acres granted in the charter deed, it has only the very moder-
ate possession of 14,272 acres, a little over half of what it should have.
Various controversies, many disputes and much litigation in the town sprung
out of the surveyors’ lines, caused by there having been two surveys of the
town made, and some holding their title according to one survey, and others
by the other. The first was made in 1775, by Silas Hathaway, under in-
structions from Ira Allen, who assumed the ownership of a large part of the
town. This survey was made and the boundaries fixed by chain, with no
particular regard paid to the points of the compass, measuring so many rods
and fixing a corner. In 1798, the township was surveyed by Ebenezer Cobb,
by order of the town, under direction of the selectmen. In this survey the
boundaries were fixed by compass, and the consequence was a variation from
the last, caused mostly by variations in the surface of the earth, as by mea-
suring over an elevation with a chain would necessarily make a shorter line
than on a level. But these conflicting claims and controversies have long
since been adjusted, and the inhabitants, so far as land titles are concerned,
are dwelling in peace and harmony.

In surface, Shelburne presents a scene of quiet rural beauty, picturesque in
the extreme at some points, though it possesses no rugged mountains to lend
their grandeur to its loveliness. The land, generally level, is, however, gently
rolling, enough to pleasantly break the surface into long, sweeping curves.

The broken indenture of the lake shore forms two points of land, desig-
nated by the names of the first two settlers of the town—Pottier’s Point, and
Logan’s Point. The former projects into the lake, forming between it and
the main land, Shelburne Bay, a narrow arm of the lake some four miles in
length, and only cut off from the main channel of the lake by this point,
which at its conjunction with the main land is quite wide, but after a short
distance is suddenly narrowed, until it becomes a narrow neck of land of uni-
form width, abruptly terminating in a bold promontory several feet m
height. At several points in the interior a beautiful view of the Adiron-
dacks on the west, and the Green Mountains on the east, may be obtained,
their bold summits, white with almost perpetual snow, forming a fitting frame
for the lovely scene of pastoral beauty that lies between them. Not only in
beauty does Shelburne excel, however, but also in richness and fertility of

soil, which varies from stiff clay to a fine sandy loam, producing in abund-
ance the grains and grasses grown in this latitude, while in the western part
of the town fruit-growing is largely carried on, and found to be a very profit-
able business. La Plotte River and Cogman’s Brook, with their tributaries,
are the principal streams. The former enters the town from Charlotte, on
the south, and flows north into Shelburne Bay, affording power for two mills
at Shelburne Falls. The name of the stream, tradition has it, was originated
in the following interesting manner: A band of Indians, on one occasion, to
the number of some 200 or 300, assembled at the mouth of the stream, on
the farm now owned by A. J. Burritt, where they concealed their canoes in the
willows lining the shore, and then passed east through the country, plundering
and taking prisoners as they went. During their absence their canoes were
discovered by the whites, riddled with holes, and replaced in the same position
as when found. On the approach of the Indians, the whites, from their con-
cealment close by, opened fire upon them, and the Indians, in their surprise,
rushed for their canoes and pushed off into the water. Their frail vessels, of
course, soon filled and sank, leaving the red fiends floundering in the river,
where they were rapidly dispatched by the white men. From this time the
stream has been called Za Plotte, or The Plot, in commemoration of this
event. Several arrow heads have been dug up in this vicinity, also bullets
supposed to have been shot during the Revolution. Shelburne Pond, located
in the eastern part of the town, is a handsome sheet of water, covering a lit-
tle over 600 acres, and contains some fine specimens of the finny tribe. It
is much resorted to by pleasure seekers during the summer season. The Rut-
land Branch of the Central Vermont passes through the western part of the
town from north to south, with a station at Shelburne village. The geological
or rock structure of the town is composed of beds or veins disposed in par-
allel ranges extending in a north and south direction. Beginning on the west,
along the lake shore, the rocks are of the Utica slate formation, next to which
is a large bed of the Audson River goup, followed by a bed of red sand rock,
the residue of the township being composed of Zodian Limestone or marble.
Several quarries of the latter have been opened, affording a very good variety
of marble, though none are worked at present.

In 1880, Shelburne had a population of 1,096, was divided into eight
school districts and contained eight common schools, employing one male
and ten female teachers, to whom was paid an aggregate salary of $1,373.50.
There were 242 pupils attending common school, while the entire cost of the
schools for the year, ending October 3rst, was $1,614.64, under the charge
of Mr. Leslie Gregg, as superintendert.

SHELBURNE, a post village and station on the Vermont Central Railroad, is
very pleasantly located near the center of the town, and contains one church,
several shops of varions kinds, one store, and about twenty-five or thirty
dwellings.

SHELBURNE Fa ts, located on the LaPlotte River, about one mile south

from the railroad station, has a good, durable water-power, contains about
thirty dwellings, one flour-mill, one saw-mill, one shingle-mill, and a black-
smith shop.

J. E. White's cheese factory, \ocated on road 30, was established by a stock
company in 1871, and purchased by Mr. White in 1877. He doesavery suc-
cessful business, manufacturing cheese from the milk of from 300 to 4oo cows.

The Shelburne Flouring Mills, \ocated at Shelburne Falls, and owned by
D. L. Spear, do the custom work of Shelburne, andadjacent towns. Mr. Spear
is also an extensive dealer in flour and feed.

Ffarrison's cider-mill, \ocated on road 3, manufactures twenty-five barrels
of cider per day during the season.

The Shelburne carriage shop, located on road 18, is under the management
of George Miller, and does both sale and custom work of all kinds.

J. B. Dubue's blacksmith and carriage shops are located on road 27.

Shelburne saw-mill, \ocated at Shelburne Falls, owned by Bartlett & Co.,
does custom sawing amounting to about 150,000 feet annually. It also does
planing, and manufactures hemlock and pine shingles.

Baldwin & White s refrigerator manufactory, located on road 30, employes
from fifteen to twenty men. Many of these useful articles are manufactured
each year. Their sales amount to about $15,000 annually.

The Champlain Transportation Co’s., ship-yard, located upon the eastern
shore of Pottier’s Point, in Shelburne Bay, affords the finest protective harbor
for wintering crafts on the lake. At this yard were built the following well-
known lake steamers: “‘Gen. Green,” “ Winooski,” ‘ Burlington,” “Saranac,”
“‘ United States,” ‘Ethan Allen,” “ Boston,” “ Adirondack,” “ Vermont,” and
other smaller vessels. The ship-yard is connected with Burlington by tele-
phone.

Five years after the charter of Shelburne was granted, in 1768, two Ger-
mans, John Pottier and Thomas Logan, commenced a settlement here, the
first attempted in the town. Theycame on from Quebec and located upon the
points of land extending into the lake which have since respectively borne
their names, Pottier’s and Logan’s Points. They were associated in getting
out oak timber for the Quebec market, and in 1775, they took a raft of
timber to Quebec, sold it, and on their return the commanding officer at
Montreal sent a sergeant and two privates to protect them through the In-
dian settlements. They had proceeded by boat as far as the south line of
Canada, where they encamped for the night. Here a conspiracy was entered
into by the guard, by which two of them were to murder the Germans for their
money, the third promising to keep the secret, bound by a solemn oath,
The deed was committed and the money procured ; but the conscience of the
third soldier would not be quieted, so after several year’s silence he disclosed
the committal of the act. The two were tried, condemned, and executed,
while the third was severely punished by whipping for not disclosing sooner.

The bodies of the murdered Germans were buried on a small island a short

distance from the mainland, which has since been known as Bloody Island,
while the point upon which the deed was committed has been designated as
Bloody Point.

In addition to these two men, Pottier and Logan, somewhere in the neigh-
borhood of ten families settled in the town previous to the Revolution; but
who they were, or what ultimately became of them, except in the one
instance of Moses Pierson and family, is not known. Most certain it is,
however, that they all left the locality soon after hostilities against the
mother country were commenced. Moses Pierson, above mentioned, pur-
chased 1,000 acres of land lying in the southwestern part of the town, in
1769. Here, upon what has since long been known as the Meech farm, he
built a block-house, and at which occurred Shelburne battle, or the seige of
Shelburne block-house, as follows: In 1777, Mr. Pierson had harvested a
large crop of wheat; but hearing of the approach of the British and Indians
up the lake, he fled, together with his neighbors, to another part of the State.
In March of the following spring he returned with his family, under the pro-.
tection of a company of fifteen armed men, commanded by Captain Sawyer,
to thresh out his grain. During the progress of this work they were attacked
in the latter part of the night by a party of Indians and Tories. A sharp
skirmish ensued, lasting about two hours; but Pierson and his party, being
entrenched in their block-house, withstood the attack, and finally succeeded
in driving the besiegers off, after killing a number of them. How many can
not be known, as they threw the dead and fatally wounded through a hole in
the ice and retreated. Several of the beseiged party were wounded, and two,
Barnabas Barnum and Joshua Woodard, were killed. During the progress of
the desperate encounter the house was twice set on fire, but extinguished by
some of the party going out and throwing on water and returning safe; but
in a short time it was fired a third time, and no water left to extinguish the
flames. Fortunately, Mrs. Pierson had made a barrel of beer the previous
day, and this was taken to extinguish the flames a third time. A number of
gold coins were found near the spot in 1877, which are supposed to have
been buried with some body at that time. Ziba and Uzal, sons of Moses,
young men at this time, aged respectively seventeen and fifteen years, were
actively engaged in this affair. An infant daughter, afterwards the wife of
Nehemiah Pray, was lying in bed at the time and fortunately escaped un-
harmed, although several balls were found, after the action, in the bed on
which she lay, and several passed through the head-board of the bedstead.
Uzal afterwards married Dorcas Frisbie, of Connecticut, and had a family of
nine children, two of whom are now living—Mr. Smith F. Pierson, and Mrs.
Lucina D. Smith, at Shelburne village. After the party had secured the
wheat they left the town, considering it unsafe to remain longer, and Mr.
Pierson and family located in Orwell. His two sons, Ziba and Uzal, were
afterwards captured in Shoreham by a scouting party and taken to Canada,
where they made their escape after a few months, and finally reached home

after much privation and suffering. After the close of the war, in 1783, Mr.
Pierson returned to Shelburne with his family, re-occupying his former resi-
dence, and died there July 28, 1805. Ziba located on a farm in the south-
ern part of the town, accumulated a large property, held many of the town
offices, and died suddenly of apoplexy, November 1, 1820, aged sixty years.
Uzal came to his death by a fall from a wagon, June 11, 1836, aged seventy-
two years. Mr. Pierson was joined during the year 1783, by William and
Caleb Smith, Rufus Cole, Thomas Hall, Hubbell & Bush associated on
Pottier’s Point, Richard Spear and Gershom Lyon. In 1784 and 1785,
Daniel Barber, Daniel Comstock, Aaron Rowley, Capt. Samuel Clark, Ben-
jamin Harrington, Israel Burritt, Joshua Reed, Timothy Holabird, Sturgess
Morehouse, Remington Bitgood, and Jirah Isham located and became resi-
dents. In the three following years, Dr. Frederick Meack, Phineas Hall,
Keeler Trowbridge, Samuel Mills, and probably others came, and soon after
Bethuel Chittenden, Benjamin Sutton, Rosel Miner, Nathaniel Gage, Ebe-
nezer Barstow, Robert Lyon, James Hawley, Frederick Saxton, Asahel Nash,
Hezekiah Tracy, Asa Lyon, John Tabor, Robert Averill, Joseph Hamilton,
and several others became residents, so that in 1791, the population of the
town was 389.

On March 29, 1787, the first town meeting was held, and the town organ-
ized by the election of the following officers: Caleb Smith, town clerk, and
also chosen to represent his townsmen in the legislature ; Aaron Rowley,
constable ; and Moses Pierson, Timothy Holabird and Dudley Hamilton,
selectmen.

Frederick Maeck was the first physician, and the only one here for several
years. The Doctor, who was an able physician and safe counselor, practiced
here for nearly forty years, dying June 30, 1826, aged sixty-one years. His
son, Frederick, born in 1800, died on the old homestead, in 1869, where his
son, John V. S., still resides. John has two sons, Fred W. and Walter,
making four generations that have occupied the old house. Isaac C. Isham,
the second physician, came here in 1810, and located near the center of the
town. He was a plain, unassuming man, but an able physician, following
his profession to the close of his life, July 1, 1829, aged fifty-eight years.

The first saw-mill was built at the Falls, by Lazel Hatch, in 1784. But
the bottom of the dam, which was imperfectly constructed, being of light
soil, was soon carried away by high water, after which the work was aban-
doned.

The first dwelling other than a common log house was a block-house built
on Pottier’s Point by Hubbell & Bush, in 1784. The first framed house
was built by Lazel Hatch, near the saw-mill erected by him,—a small build-
ing about twelve by sixteen feet, in 1784. The second framed house was
built by Benjamin Harrington, in 1789.

The first settlement commenced at Shelburne Falls was by Ira Allen, in
1785, then a resident in the town of Colchester at Winooski village. A
256¢ TOWN OF SHELBURNE.

 

rudely constructed log bridge was built across the river, a dam constructed,
and a saw-mill erected on the north side of the stream, and a forge on the
south. In 1786, a dam was constructed at the lower end of the falls, and a
grist-mill put in operation the next season. ‘Clothing works were erected
between the grist-mill and saw-mill, and put in operation in 1789, by David
Fish, which was purchased by Samuel Fletcher, in 1805, and owned and
occupied by him until his death, April 23, 1852, since which time it remained
unoccupied, and in the spring of 1862, was swept away by a freshet, as was
also the old stone building formerly used as a grist-mill.

A store was standing on Pottier’s Point in 178182, but the exact date of
its construction, or its proprietor, is not known. ‘Tradition claims one to
have been built previous to this, on Smith’s Point, near the present residence
of William Partridge.

During the war of 1812, Commodore McDonough’s fleet was anchored in
Smith’s Bay, the winter previous to the battle of Plattsburgh, and he and his
staff boarded at the house of Levi Comstock, Sr., now owned by N. R.
Miller, on road 28.

Capt. Daniel Comstock located here in 1783, upon a farm in the western
part of the town, on a point which has ever since borne hisname. Mr. Com-
stock was an honest, upright man, and filled many offices of trust, and died,
highly honored, January 11, 1816, aged seventy-four years. He had a family
of six children, three sons and three daughters, Zachariah, Levi, Elisha, Clar-
inda, Lucy and Abigail. Levi settled near the lake in 1784, was town clerk
for many years, justice of the peace, and held various town offices until his
death, May 10, 1847, aged eighty-one years. He had two children, Levi
and Lucia. The latter died at the age of thirty-six years. The former, Levi,
was born in 1793, and now at the age of eighty-nine years, is the oldest
inhabitant of thetown. His daughter, Lucia, occupies the old homestead, and
has a family of three children, Clinton L., George C., and Fanny M. Elisha
Comstock, son of Daniel, occupied the old farm after his father’s death, and
from him it reverted to his son, Hezekiah.

Richard Spear, from Braintree, Mass., came to Shelburne in July, 1783,
and located upon the farm now owned by his grandchildren, O. S. and Mary
M. Spear, widow of E. A. Spear. Richard died here, March 19, 1788, aged
fifty-two years. He hada family of ten children. Asahel, the eighth child,
born March 5, 1778, died April 30, 1849. He married Betsey Saxton, by
whom he had a family of three children, two sons and a daughter, of whom
Orson S., the second child, was born October 27, 1808, and married Susan
Pettinger, of Essex, N. Y., October 11, 1848. She died five months after
marriage. Edwin A. Spear, son of Asahel, and brother to Orson S., was

256° TOWN OF ST. GEORGE,

 

sr GEORGE, the smallest town of the county, centrally located, is
e in lat. 44° 24’, and long. 3° 48’, bounded north and northeast by Willis-
dp ton, south by Hinesburgh, and west by Shelburne. Accordin- to its
charter, issued by the governor of New Hampshire, August 18,1763, the town-
ship should have had an area of 23,040 acres, butted and bounded as fol-
lows: ‘Beginning at the southeastern corner of Shelburne, a township this
day granted, being a stake and stone on the northerly side line of Hines-
burgh, and from thence running east six miles to a stake and stone ; thence
turning off and running north six miles to a stake and stone ; thence turning
off and running west six miles to the northeasterly corner of Shelburne afore-
said, thence running south six miles by Shelburne aforesaid, to the southerly
corner thereof, the bound began at.” This area, however, very unfortunately
for its grantees, it failed to receive. Owing to an imperfect knowledge of the
geography of the territory, more land was granted than existed, and as the
surrounding towns had established their boundaries, St. George could only
accept what was left, making an area, since the addition of a small slice from
Shelburne, November 9, 1848, of 2,200 acres. This meager amount was di-
vided among its proprietors, Jesse Hallock and sixty-three others, giving them
only thirty acres, instead of the 360 they had expected.

The name of the township was given in allusion to George III, evincinga
considerable degree of veneration in the prefix ‘“‘St.,” more so, perhaps, than
would have been allotted could the proprietors have foreseen the curtailment
their possessions were to receive, and the tyranical course to be pursued. by
“ His Majesty.”

In surface, St. George is very uneven, presenting some quite lofty eleva-
tions, retaining, however, a number of verdant valleys andhill-slopes. It has
no streams of importance, and contains no mill-sites. Its soil is principally
loam, clay, and gravel, producing fair crops of the grains and fruits indigen-
ous to such soil and locality. The geological structure is composed of rocks
of Lolian limestone, clay, slate, and talcose conglomerate formation, the former
underlying about three-quarters of the town, the two latter lying in the eastern
portion.

In 1880, St. George had a population of ninety-three persons. The whole
town constituted one school district, and contained one school, located on
road 4. Three teachers had been employed at an aggregate salary of
$160.00. There were twenty-six pupils attending school, the entire expense
of the school for the year, ending October 31st, being $179.00, with Ira O.
Lockwood, superintendent.

The town contains no village, no manufactories, and no church building.
The postoffice, St. George, is located near the central part of the town, on
road 4, with Norman Isham, postmaster.

The first settlement was commenced by Joshua Isham, in 1784, who located
in the western part of the town. Here he cleared a farm, and after many

years of hardship, succeeded in gaining a moderate competence. He was
drowned in Hinesburgh Pond, in December, 1837. Early in the following
year Elnathan Higbee and Zirah Isham, with their families, settled here.
And, not long after, Jehiel Isham, Reuben and Nathan Lockwood, John
Mobbs, James Sutton, Wheeler Higbee, and others joined the settlement, so
that, in 1791, the town had fifty-seven inhabitants.

The town was organized and first town meeting held March 9, 1813, when
Jared Higbee was elected town clerk; Sherman Beach, constable; and Reu-
ben Lockwood, Lewis Higbee, and Levi Higbee, selectmen. The first jus-
tice was Reuben Lockwood, appointed in 1808, The first representative,
Lewis Higbee, chosen in 1813. The first born was a daughter of Joshua
Isham, a short time previous to the birth of the first male, Lewis Higbee,
September 23, 1787. The first death is supposed to have been that of
Heman Higbee, an infant son of Wheeler Higbee, September 17, 1791; first
adult, Rebecca Gilman, June 22, 1797. The first marriage was that of
Jacob Hinsdill to Hannah Cook. The first school-house was built soon after
the first settlement was commenced, a rude log structure, and Amos Collen-
der, of Shelburne, taught the first school.

Jehiel Isham came to St. George about the year 1790, and located near
the center of the town, where he soon became an extensive farmer. He was
actively engaged in the war of Independence, enlisting when fourteen years
or age. He married Sarah Mobbs, by whom he had a family of thirteen
children—nine sons and four daughters—four of whom, Silas, Amasa, Sophia
and Eunice (Owen), are now living. He died here at the residence of one
of his sons, in 1851, at the great age of ninety-two years. His wife died in
1840, aged ninety years. Silas is now the oldest person residing in the town.
He married Dora Sinclair in 1818, and has four children living. His wife
died in 1874, He kept the first and only hotel the town ever had. The
Isham family has always been one of the most influential and numerous
in the town.

James Sutton, from Connecticut, with his brother, Benjamin, immigrated to
Shelburne at an early day, where, after a short residence, James removed to
St. George, residing here many years. He finally died at Montpelier, whither
he had gone on business, and was buried in this town. His son, James, born
here April 6, 1803, now resides on road 5. He has served his townsmen as
Tepresentative, justice of the peace, selectman, and in other trusts.

Russe)l Tilley came to this town, from Williston, in 1839, and subsequently
located upon the farm now occupied by him on road 2. He married Abigail
Isham in 1839, and has five sons, Silas H., Sidney N., Hiram H., Herrick
A., and Raymond A. The latter married Mary H. Slocum, of South Bur-
lington, and has one child, Ray E.

Reuben Lockwood was a prominent resident of the town for nearly sixty
years, removing to Irasburgh, Vt., in 1856. He represented St. George in
the legislature at the age of twenty-eight years, and was subsequently re-

elected nine different times. He also held the office of lister twenty-five
years, and that of selectman twenty-nine years; was elected town clerk in
1833, continuing in that office twenty-two years, and, in 1842, received the
appointment of postmaster, which he resigned in 1846.

ayiY©NDERHILL, a mountainous town in the northeastern corner of the
eee county, lies inlat. 44° 33', and long. 4° 7’, bounded north by Cambridge,

and east by Stowe, in Lamoille County, south by Bolton, and west by
Jericho and Westford. It was granted by the governor of New Hampshire,
to Joseph Sackett, Jr. and sixty-four associates, in seventy-one shares, the
charter deed bearing date June 8, 1765, for which was paid $230.40, or one
cent per acre. This area, however, was increased, November 15, 1839,
by the annexation of about 12,000 acres from the town of Mansfield, the
residue of which township was finally annexed to Stowe, November 11, 1848.
Underhill derived its cognomen from two brothers of that name, large land-
owners under the original charter, and at whose house, in Dorset, Vt., the
first proprietors’ meeting was held.

The territory thus bounded and described is, and perhaps ever will be,
the most purely rural, posessing as picturesque, and at some points more
sublime scenery, than is to be found in any other town ofthe county. Lying
between the unyielding granite masses of the White Mountain range on the
one side, sixty miles distant, and the Adirondack wilderness on the other,
with all the well known varied scenery lying between, it has a natural observa-
tory in Mount Mansfeld, the highest point of land in Vermont, towering
high above this scene, affording a view that is unsurpassed probably by any
in New England. Mount Mansfield, so-called from its coutour resemblence
to the face of humanity, penetrates the clouds to an altitude of 4,389 feet—a
few feet in excess of the highest of the Catskills. Popularly, its summit is
likened to the upturned face of a giant, showing the Nose, the Chin, and the
Lips, which, with a little aid of imagination, it is not difficult to trace. The
Nose, so-called, has a projection of four hundred feet, and the Chin all the
decision of character indicated by a forward thrust of eight hundred feet.
The distance from Nose to Chin isa mile andahalf. The nostril is discovered
in a perpendicular wall of rock.

The mountain is, moreover, not without the usual number of faces and re
semblances to familiar objects, among the most notable of which is that
described as the “Old Woman of the Mountain.” She leans back in her easy-
chair, and her work has fallen into her lap, while she gazes out, in dreamy
meditation, across the misty valley, in which attitude she was perhaps frozen
bya spell of the rock Genii, ages behind the vail of the misty past. At a point
about one-third the distance between the Nose and the Chin may be seen

“drift scratches” upon the rocks, and the identical rock that formed them.
Two bowlders of about thirty and forty feet in circumference lie near by, re-
posing against a firm barrier that doubtless wrenched them from their icy
bed as they were recording the history of the iceberg epoch upon these tablets
of stone, which record was to reveal to man the fact that even Mansfield’s
lofty summit was once beneath the ocean, and iceburgs sailed majestically
over it. Now, one may stand upon this summit and gaze upon the remnant
of that ocean—the historic Champlain, decked with island gems, hemmed in
by bold headlands of beetling, craggy rocks and gentle slopes of emerald
meadow-land, nestled at the feet of the cloud-capped Adirondacks. Peering
below, seemingly just at the base of the mountain, the eye rests upon the
verdant hills and dales of Underhill, upon its murmuring rivulets and modest
rivers, that lapse down through green-browed hills, crumbling limestone-
cliffs and sunny intervales, now turned quickly by a mossy ledge, and now
skirting a bit of native forest, until they lose themselves in the more pretentious
Lamoille, soon to mingle with the blue waters of the charming lake. Quiet
industry, pastoral contentment, out-door luxury, and in-door comfort are the
characteristics that continually suggest themselves to the beholder, as he
views the scene, or loiters among the valley-farms or pleasant villages. No
sooty factories rear their tall chimneys to belch forth their grime and filth,
obstructing the view and poisoning the pure mountain air, while instead of
the monotonous hum of machinery, is heard the lowing of the kine, the bleat
of the lamb, and perhaps ever and anon a snatch of the milkmaid’s happy
song—all betokening pastoral thrift, happiness, and contentment.

Brown’s River, with its numerous tributaries, flowing westerly into Jericho,
forms the principal water-course, though Mill River flows through a portion
of the northern part of the town. The rocks forming the geological structure
of the township are of the Zalcose schist and gneiss formation, the former ex-
tending from the west, comprising about two thirds of the township, the lat-
ter constituting the residue, or eastern portion. In the various rock formations
that enter into these structures are found traces of gold and iron ore,
though not in quantities to indicate the existence of any considerable deposit
of either. The soil overlying these rocks is rich and varied, capable of pro-
ducing a large per centage of the various fruits and grains grown in our north-
ern latitudes, and also sustains large forests of hard wood, interspersed with
spruce and hemlock, the spruce predominating.

In 1880, Underhill had a population of 1,439, was divided into fourteen
school districts and contained fourteen common schools, employing five male
and fourteen female teachers, to whom was paid an aggregate salary of $1,-
411.30. There were 340 pupils attending common school, while the entire
cost of the schools for the year, ending October 31st, was $1,568.09, under
the charge of Mr. J. J. Monahan, as superintendent.

shingles, etc., cutting 500,000 feet per annum, employing sixteen men andsix
teams.

L. O. Horton & Son's steam mill, located at Underhill Centre, is operated
by a forty horse-power steam engine, affording capacity for cutting 1,000,000
feet of lumber per annum, and gives employment to ten men.

Parker & Paine’s saw-mill,located in a part of the town known as Pleasant
Valley, is operated by both steam and water-power, the engine being one of

annum, and giving employment to twenty men and ten teams.

The first meeting of the proprietors of the township of Underhill was
warned by John Shumway, a justice of the peace, and met in pursuance of
said warning, September 12, 1785, at the residence of Abraham Underhill,
in Dorset, Bennington County, with Timothy Bliss as proprietors’ clerk. Up
to this time there-had been no settlement made in the town, and nothing
permanent was done in this direction until the following year, 1786, when
Elijah Benedict and Abner Eaton came on and commenced improvements.
Mr. Benedict located at Underhill Flats, where he subsequently kept a
tavern for a number of years. Mr. Eaton located on the old post road, about
half way between Underhill Flats and Cambridgeboro, where, five miles
from any neighbor, be built a log house and commenced clearing the forest,
a portion of his land being covered by beaver meadows, upon which grew
quantities of wild grass, sufficient to support his stock, a yoke of oxen and
one cow. As this settlement was commenced subsequent to the troubled
times attending the Revolution, nothing out of the ordinary course of events
occurred. Other pioneers came in from time to time, and Underhill gradually
grew into what it still remains, a quiet rural town. Five years after the ad-
vent of Benedict and Eaton, in 1791, there were sixty-five inhabitants, while
at the taking of the next census, in 1800, it had a population of 212. The
first town meeting of the inhabitants was warned by Jonathan Castle, a justice
of the peace, of Jericho, February 23, 1795, to meet at the dwelling of George
Olds, on the oth day of the following March, at ten o’clock in the morning.
At this meeting, William Barney was chosen clerk; Caleb Sheldon, constable;
Abner Eaton, Archibald Dixon and Cyrus Stevens, selectmen; Luther

Olds, on the first Tuesday of September, 1794, William Barney was chosen
to represent the town in the general assembly during the following year, being
their first representative. The first birth recorded in the town records is that
of Polly, a daughter of Abner Eaton, born December 24, 1791. The first
death was that of Ira, son of Benjamen Button, who died April 25, 1788.
The first school-house was built of logs, at North Underhill, soon after the
first settlement, probably in 1787. The first church was built in 1804, upon
the old highway, and near it was the old parade ground, at the south end of
which, near the church porch, stood the whipping-post, long since decayed,
as well as the barbarous law that sanctioned it. The first store was opened
near here also, kept by a Mr. Campbell. No vestige of the ruins of the old
church is to be seen, and naught remains to mark the spot, save the old
church burying-ground.

Elijah Benedict, born at New Milford, Conn., in 1741, came to Vermont
previous to the Revolution, locating at Pawlet; but upon the breaking out of
the war his sympathies were on the King’s side, and he consequently had his
property confiscated, and he himself was obliged, with a portion of his family,
to flee to Canada, where he remained until after peace was declared, and in
1786, came to Underhill, located at Underhill Flats, upon the place now
owned by the widow of Hiram G. Benedict. Here Mr. Benedict kept a tav-
ern for many years, and became noted as a genial host. He was a kind-
hearted, benevolent person, quite religiously inclined. Meetings were held
at his house for a long time, and here Lorenzo Dow preached the first two
years of his pastorate. Elijah died in 1811, having had a family of five
children. His wife died in 1814, at Peru, Vt., where she was visiting friends.
Moses, the oldest son of Elijah, born April 4, 1764, married Lois Pratt, in
1783, by whom he had a family of six children, as follows; Samuel P., born
August 5, 1784; Elijah, born February 14, 1791; Elnathan, born in 1793,

TOWN OF WESTFORD. "256

SGESTFORD, one of the northern tier of towns of the county, lying in
lat. 44° 36', and long. 4° 1’, bounded north by Fairfax, in Franklin
County, East by Underhill, south by Essex, and west by Milton, was

granted by New Hampshire to Henry Franklin and sixty-four others, June
8, 1763, entitling the grantees to 23,040 acres, subject to the restrictions and
reservations incident to all the Wentworth charters, or New Hampshire
grants. Little attention, however, was paid to the mandates and warnings
of George III., as set forth in the charter, and no evil consequences seem
ever to have resulted from the neglect. Little heed was given to the clause
relative to the pine timber to be spared for the ‘‘masting of the Royal Navy,”
and none of the grantees commenced settlement until long after the restricted
five years had elapsed ; indeed, it is doubtful if any of the original grantees
ever located here. No changes have been made in the boundary line of the
township.

 

In surface, Westford is uneven and mountanous, being a portion of the
base of the western slope of the Green Mountains, and hence cannot but
possess a pleasing and picturesque landscape, though it is not sufficiently
broken to conflict with agriculture; quite the contrary, there is little waste
land to be found in the whole township. Many points of view, grand in the
extreme, are afforded, lying as they do midway between the lofty Mount
Mansfield on the east, and the unequaled Champlain, with its azure surface
and emerald isles, on the west, while north and south stretches the beautiful
Champlain valley, forming as a whole a panorama of rare beauty and excel-
lence. The well-kept farms are covered with abundant crops of grain, in
their season, as the soil is well adapted to the production of all the grains and
grasses indigenous to the county. Through the central portion of the terri-
tory clay preponderates, while in the eastern and western sections a rich
gravelly loam prevails, and the extreme northern portion has a light, sandy
soil. All is well watered by numerous springs, streams and brooks, Brown’s
River, with its tributaries, forming the principal water-course, having a gen-
eral northern course through the central part of the town. Beaver Brook,
with several small tributaries, flows north through the northwestern portion
of the township. A small sheet of water, Westford Pond, covering an area
of about ten acres, is also found in the southwestern part of the territory.
Originally the whole township was covered with a heavy forest, containing a
great variety of timber, hemlock, beech and maple being the most common,
though spruce, pine, birch, elm and ash were abundant. Pine especially was
quite plentiful, as the whole sandy plains of the northern portion of the town
were covered with an immense pine forest. The rocks are principally of the
talcose conglomerate formation, with a bed of talcose schist extending across
the whole extreme western portion of the township. No minerals of any ap-
preciable value have yet been discovered, except upon the farm of Lucius
A. Irish, on road 11, where there is a considerable deposit of copper, which

promises to be of some value when properly worked.

In 1880, Westford had a population of 1,133, was divided into eleven
school districts and contained eleven common schools, employing one male
and eleven female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $1,139.00. There
were 265 pupils attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools
for the year, ending October 31st, was $1,337.61, with Mr. J. H. Macomber,
superintendent.

WESTFORD CENTER (Westford p. 0.), located in the central part of the
town, on Brown’s River, is the only village in the township. The river here
affords several good mill privileges, and it was this, together with the central
location, that first induced its settlement. The nucleus about which the vil-
lage has since formed, was started by Elisha Baker, in 1795, who at that time
erected a saw-millhere. Shortly after, Joshua Stanton built a forge and grist-
mill near by, causing settlers to rapidly locate in the vicinity, and even lent
an impetus to the business and enterprise of the whole town. Hitherto the
inhabitants had been forced to go a long distance to mill, and framed houses
could not be even thought of. The forge gave employment to a compara-
tively large number of workmen, and manufactured a very fair quality of iron,
from ore brought from Coichester and New York. The Colchester mines
were located near the mouth of the Winooski River, sixteen miles from the
forge, and the ore was hauled thence by teams over the worst imaginable
roads, causing an immense amount of labor for alittle profit. Still the iron
business seemed to prosper, so much so at least, that another forge was erected
after a short time, at a point about one hundred rods lower down the river.
But about the year 1809, the business was necessarially abandoned, owing to
the failure of the ore beds in Colchester, and the inability to manufacture the
required quality of iron from New York ore alone. Soon after the failure of
the iron interests, a suit at law was brought against the owner of the prop-
erty, the widow of Luke Camp, for the removal of the dam, by John Keeler
and Joseph Weed, of Essex, on the grounds that it damaged their land. The
suit was decided in favor of the plaintiffs, resulting in the removal of the dam.
Another dam, however, was subsequently built by Mrs. Camp, lower down the
river, and a grist-mill erected, nearly back of where the Baptist church now
stands. But the position proved unfavorable, and the property was sold to
Col. Danforth Wales and Henry Miles, who subsequently built the present
grist-mill. Steadily the village increased in population until it now has 3150
inhabitants, three churches (Baptist, Methodist, and Congregational), a good
school building, two stores, three blacksmith shops, one wheelwright shop, one
saw, planing and shingle-mill, a grist-mill, butter-tub and cheese-box factory,
and a cider-mill. The dwellings are mostly neat, tidy structures, while the
whole settlement has an air about it that denotes it as the abiding place of an
intellectual, moral people.

The Union Cheese Factory Co. was organized as a stock company, with
thirteen stockholders, in 1865. The directors are Charles Kimble, and
Heman and George Rice. The factory, located on road 24 cor. 23, is oper-

ated by E. H. Ruggles, who manufactures about 140,000 pounds of cheese
per annum.

Charles A. Wakefield’ s cheese-box factory, and saw and cider-mill, located in
the western part of the town, was established by A Worley, about the year
1868. Mr. Wakefield now manufactures about 120,000 feet of lumber, 3,000
cheese-boxes, and 350 barrels of cider per annum.

The Westford Center grist-mill, and cheese-box and butter-tub manufac-
tory, located at the village, is owned by Tascot Rousseau, of New Bedford,
Mass., and leased by H. W. Carrington, who does custom grinding and man-
ufactures 15,000 cheese-boxes and butter-tubs per year.

£. P. Carpenter's tannery, \ocated on Road 24, was established in 1836,
and does a business of about $4,000.00 per year.

Nathan C. Dimick's cabinet and wheelwright shop, located at Westford
Center, came into his possession, as successor to N. D. Stanley, in 1879. He
does all kinds of cabinet and wheelwright work.

SH. & H. N. Macomber’s saw, shingle and planing-mill, located on
Brown’s River has the capacity for cutting 10,000 feet of lumber, and 8,000
shingles per day.

The first effort toward the settlement of the township was made by Heze-
kiah Parmelee, in 1787. He was followed soon after by a few others from
Massachusetts, who located in the southern part of the town. And these
were shortly joined by two other parties, coming about simultaneously, one
from New Hampshire, and the other from Rhode Island. The New Hamp-
shire colony located in the northeastern part of the town, while the Rhode
Island party settled in the northwestern section. From this time the settle-
ment of the town may be considered as permanently established, though im-
migration was exceedingly slow until about 1795, when settlers began to come
in quite rapidly, as is attested by the census reports for 1791 and 1800; at
the former the town had only sixty-three inhabitants, while at the latter the
reports show an increase of 585, making the population at that time 648,
while ten years later, in 1810, the returns give the township a population of
1,107, or nearly double that of 1800.

The town was organized and first town meeting held at the dwelling
of John Seeley, March 25, 1793, at which Francis Northway was chosen
moderator, to govern said meeting, and Martin Poweil elected town clerk;
John Seeley, Levi Farnsworth, and Shubael Woodruff, selectmen ; John See-
ley, treasurer ; Ebenezer Burdick, constable ; Peter Neels, second constable ;
John Seeley, Levi Farnsworth, and Francis Northway, listers; Peter Neels,
collector of taxes; Francis Northway, leather sealer ; David Knowles, grand
juror; and Stephen Johnson and Elias Crandall, pound-keepers. The first
justice was Jeremiah Stone, who was also the first representative, chosen to
both offices in 1793. He was also the first merchant of the town. The first
physician was Dr. Rice, who removed to Canada after a short residence here.
The first postmaster was William P. Richardson. The first death recorded is
256% TOWN OF WESTFORD.

 

that of Susannah Balch, April 27, 1795, though we believe the first adult was
Silas Beach, killed by the falling of a tree, July 4, 1796. The first marriage
was that of Amos Balch and Betsey Jervis, December to, 1792. The first
birth on record is that of Althea Nells, March 20, 1795.

The War of the Revolution was passed when the first settlers located here,
so that Westford has no traditions to relate of -he midnight attack of the
Indian, or the invasion of their homes by the British or Tory. Many of the
settlers, however, had fought well in the ranks of the American army, and
many of their graves are now honored and cared for by their descendants, as
the following list of Revolutionary soldiers buried in the town will attest,
James Taylor, who served as a captain, George Chase, John Lawrence, Ben-
jamin Wilmont, Simeon Hooker, who attained an age of over one hundred
years. George Northway, John Macomber, Josiah Woodruff, Solomon Ho-
bart, George Thrasher, Jesse Atwood, Gideon Dixon, Samuel French, and
Samuel Moore, who also served in the French and Indian war. Again, when
the war of 1812 came upon them, the inhabitants of Westford sent forty-one
of their number to protect their common cause, whose names were as fol-
lows: James Taylor, who served as acaptain, Henry Woodruff, Nathan Cas-
well, Samuel R. Robinson, Romanty Woodrutf, Manley Homles, Ziba Wood,
Jacob Macomber, Welcome Chattington, Moses Ruggles, Aldrich Worley,
Haskell French, Sanford Pratt, Heman Pratt, Martin Bates, Appollas Part-

Richardson, Freeman Hoyt, Julius Hoyt, Josiah Hilton, Freeman Chase, as
ensign, Aaron Parker, Jonas Hobart, as captain, Lemuel French, as fifer,
Timothy Burdick, and Foster Taylor. Samuel R. Robinson died only a short
time since, in 1880. The widows of Jacob Macomber and Martin Bates,
only, are now drawing pensions. During the last war, the town furnished 105
soldiers, many of whom re-enlisted.

Jeremiah Stone was one of the first settlers in the western part of the town,
and became the first merchant and first representative. He was a very
prominent citizen, a large land owner, and died quite wealthy, in 1826. His
son, Allen, came to Westford with him, reared a family of twenty-one
children, and died here in 1858, aged seventy-four years. Alney, son of
Allen, born here in 1820, is now a resident of the town, which he has served
as associate judge, representative, etc., and as a magistrate continuously since
1849.

Frederick Cook came to this town about 1787, and located in the eastern
part, upon the farm now occupied by Harmon Macomber, where he built a
log house, cleared away the forest, reared a family of ten children, and died,
in 1829. His son, Frederick, Jr., came with his father, at seven years of
age, and died here in 1877. His widow is still a resident of the town, aged

liston. According to the charter deed, the proprietors were to have 23,040
acres, divided among them in seventy-one shares, and bounded as follows:
North by the Winooski River, east by Bolton, south by Huntington and
Hinesburgh, and west by Burlington, whose eastern line was then about one
mile west of the village of Williston. These bounds were changed, however,
October 27, 1794, by annexing from Burlington the land lying west of Muddy
Brook, while the easterly portion of Williston was taken towards forming the
township of Richmond.

The surface, though possessing no lofty mountains to form grand and impos-
ing scenery, is most admirably adapted to agriculture ; it contains some hills,
yet is mostly a fine level country, undulating in some parts, with just enough
of hollow and dale to lend a pleasing diversity. Its soil is unsurpassed in pro-
ductiveness, varying from the softest mold to the stiffest clay, and producing
prolific crops of all the fruits and grains indiginous to this latitude. The
streams that drain and irrigate the soil flow principally north into the Winooski,
or Westerly into Muddy Brook, the largest being Allen’s Brook, which
rises in the easterly part of the town and flows a northwesterly course into
Winooski River, and Sucker Brook, flowing a westerly course from the central
part of the territory into Muddy Brook. The most common of the forest
trees are maple, beech, birch, pine and hemlock. Much of this timber has
been utilized, especially the pine growing on the sandy tracts in the north-
western part, but not to such an extent as it would have been had the streams
afforded more mill privileges, as in this latter respect the natural facilities of
the territory are deficient, there being but two good mill sites in the township.

Underlying the western portion of the town is an extensive bed of marble,
croping out in ledges in some places, affording several very good varieties.
East of this, having a mean width of about three-quarters of a mile, lies a bed
of clay slate, extending through the whole length of the town from north to
south, while the rock formation of the residue of the territory is composed of
talcose conglomerate, All of these ledges or veins, however, are cut and inter-
mixed by other substances incident to these formations throughout the State.
No valuable minerals have been found hoarded in these storehouses of nature,
yet nature has not been unkind to the fair township, as the lofty pines, maples,
and hemlocks will testify, towering above the broad expanse of upland mead-
ows and verdant intervales along the banks of the Winooski. No better
farming lands exist, while the products find a convenient mode of transpor-
tation to populous marts in the Vermont Central Railroad, which passes
across the northwestern corner of the town, with a station at North Williston.

In 1880, Williston had a population of 1,342, was divided into ten school
districts and had ten common school, employing one male and fourteen
female teachers, at an aggregate salary of $1,193.20. There were 308 pupils
attending common school, while the entire cost of the schools for the year,
ending October 31, was $1,428.37.

(SMITH WRIGHT’S COLD STORAGE BUILDINGS.)

Smith Wright's refrigerator and cold storage buildings, located at Williston,
village, have facilities for storing several hundred tons of poultry, meats, etc.
Mr. Wright has been very successful in preserving the commodities thus stored,
so that he ofter has goods shipped to him from distant States for storage.

Whitcomb & Fay’s steam mill, located at North Williston, was originally es-
tablished by Hiram J. Fay, in 1862 or 1863. In 1866, he took Roswell B.
Fay and ——-— Rood into partnership with him, and the new company en-
larged the saw-mill and erected a grist-mill, and in 1871, the whole was de-
stroyed by fire. A stock company was formed soon after, under the title of
the North Williston Mill Co., and the mills re-erected under their orders.
The saw-mill now manufactures 850,000 feet of lumber per annum.

The North Williston Machine Shop was established by R. B. Fay, E. F.
Whitcomb and Addison M. Ford, in 1872. The institution is now principally
employed in the manufacture of chair stock.

Miss Lotica Alexander's cider-mill, located on road 33, was built about

fifty years ago, and is now in good running order.
E.R. Cole's blacksmith shop, located at North Williston, was built about

thirty years ago for general blacksmithing purposes. Mr. Cole has done a
very successful business here since he took charge of the establishment, about
five years ago.

North Williston cheese factory, \ocated near the railroad depot, was built
in 1868. The factory now receives the milk from 400 cows.

Lewis H. Talcott’s cheese factory, \ocated on road 27, manufactures into
cheese the milk from 700 cows, 275 of which are his own property.

R B. Brown & Son's butter-tub manufactory, located at North Williston,
was established by Wilkins & Loggins in 1872, who conducted the business
about two years, when it was taken by the present firm, who employ ten men
manufacturing $12,000.00 worth of butter tubs per annum.

The town farm, consisting of about two hundered acres of land, situated in
the northwestern corner of the township, is owned by the towns of Williston,
Essex, Jericho, Shelburne, and Hinesburgh.

About eleven years after the issue of the charter of Williston, in 1774, set-
tlement was commenced here by Thomas Chittenden, the first governor of
Vermont, who came on with a large family of children, and was followed by
Jonathan Spafford, Elihu Allen, John Chamberlain and Abijah Pratt, in 1775
and ’76. But soon the horrors of war broke up the settlement, and obliged
the settlers to seek places of greater safety, fleeing before the advance
of the enemy from Canada, as, indeed, was the case with settlements in
other towns in the northern part of the county. In Williston, before all could
make good their escape, they were attacked by the enemy. John Chamber-
lain was attacked in his house, by Indians, and a hired man and a child killed
by them.

Soon after the close of the war settlement was again commenced, the set-
tlers coming, most of them, from Connecticut and Western Massachusetts,
among whom were the Murrays, the Talcotts, the Spaffords, Millers, Brownells,
Frenches, Ishams and others, all men of enterprise and respectability, and
most of them possessd of large families. On the 28th of March, 1786, the
first town meeting was called, at which the town was duly organized by the
election of the following officers: Robert Donnelly, town clerk, and Joel
Brown, constable. In 1787, the first board of selectmen was chosen, Jona-
than Spafford, David Talcott and Asa Brownson. The first justice was Amos
Brownson, chosen in 1786, and during this year the first representative, Jona-
than Spaftord, was elected. The first born was Cyrus Bradley, August 4,
1786.

Thomas Chittenden, or Gov. Chittenden as he is more familiarly known,
was, as previously mentioned, the first to commence settlement in this town,
and was also one of the first and heaviest landholders in this locality. Gov.
Chittenden was born in Guilford, Conn., January 6, 1730, of parents in very
moderate circumstances, his father being a small farmer. Young Chittenden
was trained to a life of economy and toil, his only educational advantages
being those afforded by the common schools of his native town. Until the
age of eighteen, he pursued the ordinary round of a farmer’s life, when he
became enchanted with the idea of becoming a sailor. Accordingly, he found
a merchant vessel about to sail from New London to the West Indies, on
which he enlisted as a common sailor. But his bright visions of a daring sea-
rover’s exploits were doomed to disappointment, for before the vessel upon
which he had embarked reached its destination, it was seized by a French
man-of-war, its cargo confiscated and the ship destroyed. Not wishing to be

burdened with the crew of the ill-fated vessel, the Frenchmen put them ashore
upon an uninhabited island, whence, after much suffering, they were finally
rescued, and Chittenden reached his home, wiser in the ways of the world,
and thoroughly disenchanted of the idea of becoming a sailor. Soon after
his return, in October, 1749, he was married to Miss Elizabeth Megs, a kind
hearted, robust young lady, of congenial habits and education, one eminently
fitted for the station she was destined to attain as the wife of the Governor of
democratic Vermont. They soon after removed to Salisbury, a new town in
northeastern Connecticut, where they resided twenty-four years, Mr.Chittenden
soon becoming one of the leading inhabitants of the town, representing it in
the assembly of the colony for several years, and holding the office or colonel
ofthe militia. Becoming a landowner in Williston, he was tempted by the pleas-
ing and productive locality to give up his home in Salisbury, and begin the life of
a pioneer, coming to this town in 1774. When driven off by the incursions of
the enemy, in 1776, he took up his residence in Arlington, where he remained
until the close of the war, then returned to Williston.

Here, aside from the high political stations he attained, he enjoyed the
fellowship and love of his friends and neighbors, and became particularly
noted for sociability and hospitality, his house being at all times open to the
ever welcome guest. Of his residence, Col John A. Graham, in a book of
his travels in Vermont, published at London in 1797, says: ‘About ten
miles from Burlington Bay, in Williston, which is on the south side of Onion
River, is the beautiful and elegant residence of Governor Chittenden. The
buildings are of brick, finely elevated on a well-chosen spot of ground, which
commands a boundless prospect, over a vast country of intervale lands of
thousands of acres, of which the Governor is owner in fee.” The buildings
are standing to-day about as they were then.

It is indeed just that Chittenden should receive the title of ‘‘ The Father of
the State,” for the formation of the territory of Vermont into a separate
State, the successful progress of its government, and its final establishment
against the powerful opposition of other governments, were owing in a great
degree to his almost unerring foresight, unhesitating firmness and sound judg-
ment. He was chosen one of the coucil of safety by the convention that formed
the State constitution in July, 1777, and became at once the president of the
body ; was chosen the first governor of the State, in March, 1778, and from
that date until 1797, he was annually re-elected to that office, with the single
exception of the year 1789, when, there being no choice, Moses Robinson
was elected by the legislature. The next year Gov. Chittenden was re-chosen
by a large majority. During the whole period of his administration, he ex-
erted a powerful and healthful influence over the affairs of the State, and had
the pleasure of witnessing the triumphant success of his earnest efforts, in the
prosperity and happiness of a grateful people, whose political affairs he had
for years been greatly instrumental in guiding. He resigned the office in the
year 1797, on account of failing health, and died on the 25th of August of

that year, leaving an unsullied reputation, pure and spotless as the snowy
sheet upon which we write. His descendants are numerous, several of whom
have occupied high political positions in the State and county. In the quiet
cemetery at Williston village is the grave where rests all that was mortal of
this good man, marked by a marble monument, upon which 1s traced the fol-

In the same cemetery is another monument marking the last resting place
of his son, Martin, who was also a governor of the State, bearing the follow-
ing inscription :—

THE
Hon. Martin CHITTENDEN
DIED
SEPTEMBER 5, 1840, AGED 71 YEARS.

Martin was born in Salisbury, Conn., and came to Vermont with his father.
He was a member of congress from Vermont, fron: 1803 to 1813, and gov-
ernor of the State in 1813 and 1814. He graduated from Dartmouth Col-
lege in 1789.

Hon. Lemuel Bottom, another pioneer whose memory the people of Wil-
liston still cherish with pride, was one of the most substantial and enterprising
of the early settlers. He began his residence here in 1786, and early gained
the entire respect and confidence of his townsmen and neighbors, by whom
he was returned to many town and county offices, remaining an earnest, con-
scientious worker for the public weal until death cut short his labors, in 1815.

Col. Isaac McNeil was also prominently identified with the best interests of
the first inhabitants of Wilhston, coming to this town from Litchfield, Conn.,
the first lawyer who dwelt within its limits. Possessed of an education and
rare ability, he could not remain long unnoticed by the public, and conse-
quently was soon elected to offices of town and county trust, continuing to
be thus honored until his death, in 1807.

Jonathan Spafford, who came here soon after Gov. Chittenden’s first settle-
ment, was a man eminently endowed by Nature to endure the hardships inci-
dent to. pioneer life, as well as to assist in laying broad and deep the founda-
tions of a prosperous settlement. Strong in frame, with an equally well bal-

anced and hardy mind, he carved a niche in the history of Williston, and a
place in the hearts of its inhabitants, during his long life among them, that
still remains, though his body has long since united with the dust in the prov-
ince of Upper Canada, where he died at an advanced age.

Solomon and Elisha Miller were also prominent among the early settlers,
coming to this town at an early date, locating upon land which now com-
prises the center of the village of Williston. Solomon was born at West
Springfield, in 1761, and at the breaking out of the Revolution entered the
American army, where he served with honor, participating in the battle of
Bennington, and the taking of Burgoyne. Soon after the war he removed to
Vermont, locating in Wallingford, where, in connection with Nathaniel
Chipman, he was engaged in the iron business, remaining until 1786, when
he took up his residence here, and was soon chosen town clerk, which office
he retained from 1794 to 1815, a period of twenty-one years. He was also
clerk of the supreme and county courts for twenty years, and judge of pro-
bate about the same length of time, serving also as a member of the State
council for several years. He died in 1847, aged eighty-seven years. Elisha
also died about the same time, and his son, William, is still a resident of the
town.

his son John was born, who died here in 1874. Smith, son of John, is the
present postmaster at Williston village, and has served his townsmen as
associate judge two years, from 1868 to 1870, and has also represented the
town of St. George four years, 185253 and 1860-61. He is largely en-
gaged in farming and dairying, having a herd of fifty cattle, and also exten-
sively connected with the poultry trade, having handled $60,000.00 worth of
poultry during the past year.

Beriah Murray, from Claremont, N. H., located in Williston at an early
day, together with with his son, Calvin, who subsequently died in the town
of Hinesburgh. Calvin’s son, David A., is still a resident of this town.

John Charles, a German, came to this continent when eight years of age,
locating in Montreal. When still quite young, and early in the history of
Williston, he took up his residence here, where he died, after raising a family
of twelve children, H. L. Charles, the eldest of the children, has carried the
mail between Williston village and North Williston twenty seven consecutive
years.

Dea. Jonathan Talcott, one of the early settlers of the town, came here
from Connecticut among the first inhabitants, locating upon the farm lately
occupied by his son, Roswell. Four years after the birth of the latter, Dea.
Talcott died, and young Roswell was sent away among friends, where he re-
mained until he became of age, then returned and took up his residence on
the old homestead, remaining until September, 1881, a period of fifty-nine
years, when he removed to the place he now occupies on road 12.

John Bushnell was also one of the early settlers of Williston, coming here
from Connecticut. The exact date of his settlement we are unable to state,
though it must have been previous to 1795, as his eldest son was born here,
and is now eighty-seven years of age. Mr. Bushnell, after a long and useful
life, died here, in 1821. His son, Hiram, born here in 1798, is still a resi-
dent of the town.

intermarriage, however, has left not one of that name in the town, though
there are descendants by intermarriage, among whom are members of the Fay
family, one of the oldest and most venerated in the State. The first of the
Fay family in this country was John, who emigrated from England to Massa-
chusetts at an early date. Several of his sons subsequently removed to Ben-
nington, and thence spread through the State. His grandson, Jonas, is well
known through his decided stand with the Green Mountain Boys, and his is,
perhaps, the most prominent name in history of any of the family, though

The Congregational Church, located at Williston village, was organized Jan-
uary 23, 1800, with sixteen members, and Rev. Aaron C. Collins was installed
as its first pastor, January 29, of the same year. In 1813, the church was
re-organized, as the only means of eliminating certain heresies which had
crept in, and Rev. James Johnson became its pastor. The present church

Aorney at Law and Gounselor in Pateat Canny

CYOSOLICITOR OF AMERICAN AND FOREIGN PATENTSCV¥S
NORTH BENNINGTON, VT.

IRETER an experience in patent matters extending over a period of
Ne twenty years, offers his services to inventors in Chittenden County and
a vicinity, and confidently believes that his facilities for the transaction

of patent business in the United States Courts, and in American and
Foreign Patent Offices, are unsurpassed by any Patent Agency in New
England.

Acting as the Associate Attorney in the United States for the Patent
Agency of RoBeRTson, BroomaNn & Co., London, the oldest establishment
of the kind in England, I am able to execute on this side of the water all
papers necessary to obtain British patents, so that inventors seeking English
patents may know, before their British applications are lodged, in what shape
their inventions have been presented. The general custom is to turn the
whole case over to the English Agents, who handle the matter as they please,
without consultation with the inventor,—a practice often prejudicial to the
inventor’s interest.

Having a complete set of English and United States Patent Reports cover-
ing a period from 1617 to date, as wellas a good selection of legal and sci-
entific patent authorities, I am able to furnish information of the highest
value to the inventor and the litigant. No charge made for preliminary con-
sultation.

The customary charge of $5.00 is made for preliminary searches on
inventions.

Fee for obtaining United States patents ranges from $25.00 upwards,
according to the complexity of the case.

Where applications are made after a preliminary search, the fee for search
will be applied on the regular attorney’s fee.

Re-issues, extensions, copyrights, rejected cases and caveats, prosecuted on
reasonable terms.

Cost of English patents from $175.00 upwards. This covers English
Government fees and all other expenses.

CHITTENDEN COUNTY

OLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY.

EXPLANATION.

 

The Towns are alphabetically arranged at the end of the line, under the business classi-
fications. The postoffice address of each individual or firm follows after the name.
Where no postoffice is given after the name, it signifies that the name of the postoffice
and the township is the same. In the village the name of the street is generally given and
precedes that of the postoffice. The names of farmers are omitted in this list, as they can
readily be found in the general list, by noting the figures at the end of the line, which in-
cludes the number of acres owned or leased by each. Road numbers signify the same as
in the general list.
