FOUNDATION FACTS 
 
 CONCERNING THE 
 
 SETTLEMENT, GROWTH and INDUSTRIES 
 
 HAVERHILL. 
 
 The purpose of this brief sketch is merely to 
 give the origin of luany of our present institu- 
 tions, the time when they came into being, as 
 well as the time of some of the most important 
 events in the history of Haverhill as a town and 
 city. Space forbids that we attempt more. But 
 in putting into compact form the history of 
 those small beginnings whence so great results 
 have flowed, we are sure we meet a popular 
 want. All details must be avoided in such a 
 sketch, else it would speedily grow beyond all 
 reasonable limits. Hence we have confined our- 
 selves to facts and figures as closely as possi- 
 ble.

 lowing men from Newbury: William White,

HAVERHILL HEROES. 
 
 >;aines anil Rank of those who enlisted in the War of the Rebellion, and other inter- 
 esting particulars concerning them. 
 
 The City records show the follovviug 
 facts, now published collectively for the 
 first time, concerning the volunteers from 
 this city during the late war of the Rebel- 
 lion. Tlie rank of each person is jriven, It 
 bein<j understood that, unless otherwise 
 designated, all are privates. Those who 
 were killed are marked "k.," died in ser- 
 vice, "d.," deserted, "des."; all others, in- 
 cluding those wounded, marked "w," are 
 understood to have been honorably dis- 
 charged. The rank held is indicated by 
 the usual abbreviations. The list, how- 
 ever, will probably be increased a little, as 
 uew names occasionally come to light as 
 being entitled to a place upon this roll. 
 Although this record is incomplete, yet it 
 will be worth a great deal to those who 
 served in the army or the navy, for it gives 
 them as complete a history as possible, in 
 so brief space, of those who fought with 
 them against treason and rebellion :

HANNAH DUSTON 
 
 The Presentation to the City of the Monument in 
 Meniory of her Bravery and Fortitude. 
 
 The name of Haimalj Duston is one flviniliar 
 ro ill! citizens of Hiiv-orhill. Nearly two centu- 
 B'ies ago slie perforii>etl deeds of valor, heroism 
 and endurance tliat have made her name liis- 
 loric. Already- has a monument to lier memory 
 Jieen erected on tlvc Contoooooli IslaiKl in New 
 Hampsliire, wherejoans the Merrimaclv and Con- 
 Joocook river, on which she -sJcw her savage 
 t.'aptors and whence; she made her escape. This 
 niunumcnt was ewcted through the generosity 
 i>f hundreds; but it remained forapuolic spirited 
 and liberal citizen of Haverhill, Hon. E. J. M, 
 Hale, to bestow uixjn Hannah Duston's native 
 place, as well as his own, a suitable monument 
 to her memor}'. The city is, indeed, greath' 
 iMdeI)ted to Mr. Hale for his gift, the purpose of 
 which is most clearly and admirably set forth 
 ui his letter of presentation. 
 
 The gift was made to the city through the 
 mayor and city coimcil, who were assembled for 
 that purpose. The mayor in l)ehalf of the coun- 
 i:il spoke as follows : 
 
 Gentlemex or the City Covncii. — We meet 
 here todaj' as representatives of the city of Ha- 
 verhill, to accept in her oehalf, from one of her 
 sons, the gift of a statue erected to the memory 
 of one of her daughters (Hannah Duston), and 
 ji gives me great pleasure to submit to you the 
 follovving communication from the generous do 
 nor. 
 
 Mayor Kimball then read the following com- 
 munication from Mr. Hale, conferring the statue 
 upon the city : 
 
 To His Hoxou the Mayor and City' Council 
 
 OF THE City of Haveehili, : 
 
 It has ever been a characteristic of the human 
 mind and heart, in all ages and in all times, to 
 do honor to acts of high daring and bravery. 
 
 The early history of Haverhill, v\hich for sev- 
 enty years was a frontier town, tells us of many 
 cases of savage cruelty, perpetrated by the In- 
 dians upon its first settlers, and the sufferings 
 and hai'dships endured by our ancestors. 
 
 Connected with those early times the name of 
 Hannah Duston will ever stand prominent in the 
 annals of the early historj' of Haverhill, her na- 
 tive place, for her bold and daring act in the 
 slaying of her murderous captors at Contoocook 
 /.'■.land and her escape, an act unsurpassed for 
 
 intrepidity and heroism in any age of the world. 
 And we deem it eminently fitting to erect this 
 monument to the memory of her name and'char- 
 aeter upon this spot, set apart as a public park 
 by our forefatiiers in the early histoiy of the 
 town. 
 
 This moHUHient is erectetl in hoHor of Hannak 
 Duston, and presented to ny' native town in or- 
 der to keep alive and to perpetuate in the minds 
 of all here, and of all those who shall come af 
 ter us, the remembrance of her courage and nn 
 daunted valor, and the patient endurance and 
 fortitude of our ancestors, and to animate o«f 
 hearts witJi noble ideas and patriotic feelings. 
 
 E. J. M. Hvi.K. 
 Haverhill, November 2o, A. D. 1879. 
 The following resolutions adopted by the city 
 council, accepting the gift, were then read ; 
 
 CiTY' OF HaVERHILT:, ) 
 
 November 25, 1879. . j 
 
 Citi/ Vo'fnnl in ConvcHtimi Assembled^ 
 
 Resola'ed, That the thanks of the mayor and 
 city council in behalf of the citizens of Haver'^ 
 hill are dne and are hereby tendered to our fel* 
 low citizen, Hon. E. J. M. Hale, for the magnifi- 
 cent gift of a monument and statue in memory 
 of Hannah Duston, presented to the city by him 
 this day. This gift adds another to the long list 
 , already received from him, for literary, benevo- 
 lent and patriotic purposes, and evinces his con- 
 tinued interest in all that relates to the 
 prosperity and well Ijeing of our 
 city. The citizens of Haverhill fully 
 appreciate the liberality and public spirit exhili 
 ited liy these oft repeated donations, and gladly 
 acknowledge their thanks and obligations for the 
 same. 
 
 Resolved, That the mayor and city council 
 agree with the sen.iments expressed in the com- 
 munication from Mr. Hale, of the importance of 
 perpetuating the remembrance of deeds of cour- 
 age and endurance; and we cheerfully render 
 tribute of admiration to our patriotic ancestors, 
 and especially to the memory of Hainiah Dus- 
 ton, Vv'hose fortitude and braver.y have gained 
 for her lasting fame. May this enduring bronze 
 tend to keep in remembrance her acts of heroism 
 and serve as an incentive to deeds of valor and 
 patriotism, to all succeeding generations. 
 
 Resolved, That a copy of the resolutions be 
 transmitted to Mr. Hale, and the same, together 
 with the communication from the donor, be en^ 
 teret' in full an the records of the city. 
 
 A large crowd witnessed the ceremonies and 
 applauded when the veil fell from the statue.

 Churches of Haverhill. 
 
 THEIR FOUNDING, PASTORS AND CLERKS. 
 
 The diurches of Haverhill date hack ahoat as 
 far as any in tlie state, and a detailed history of 
 (heir existence would be extremely interesting, 
 lint in our limited space we can only ^ive the 
 more prominent facts, taken from the records of 
 each society, briefly as follows, giving them in 
 in the order of their establishment ; 
 
 FIRST PARISH (UNITARIAN; CHURCH, 
 The First Parish church was organized I64r). 
 It consisted of eight men and six women. The 
 Hrst meeting house stood on the Mill Lot, the 
 'he ground now occupied by the cemetery. In 
 1699 a new church was built on the ground now 
 known as City park. The first bell ever heard 
 hi Haverhill was hung on this church in 1748. \ 
 111 1776 a third new chcrch was built on the 
 Common, near the old house. In 1837 a new 
 church was built on the lot where the present one 
 >*tands. In 1847 the church was burnt and the 
 present boiiding was then erected. 'J'he First 
 Parish cbuich,like other Congregational church- 
 es in early days, managed its tinancial affairs in 
 town or parish meetings, and was Orthodox in 
 its faith. But a majority of the voters in the 
 parish meeting, in 1832, voted to tlissolve the 
 connettion l)etvvcen its pastor and the p-arisbjand 
 many of the memljers withdrew, and in the suc- 
 •■eeding yeai' formed what is now known a.-i tho 
 "Centre Congregational churcl*.

 D. D., a graduate of Princeton college, and 
 twenty-three others, organized themselves as 
 "The Fir«t Baptist Congregational Church iir 
 this section of New England." Their number 
 greatly increased, and Mr. Smith was obliged to 
 preach in the open air for awhile. During the 
 season a meeting house was built. This church 
 originated ilia revival movement which hegaiv 
 in 1764. The population of the parish was thetr 
 about I"00, The result of Mr. Smith's lalHii' 
 was a caII from several prominent vitizens <ii 
 "Haverhill Town."

 EAST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. 
 1744. 
 
 This church was organi/.ed November 28, 1744. 
 The records being lost and the church reduced 
 in numbers, a council was called January 11, 
 1797, and the church reorganized. The parish 
 originally embraced all the the territory from 
 the plank sidewalk to Rocks Village. In 182--' 
 the Second Baptist church was organized at 
 Rocks Village, and occupied about half the ter- 
 ritory which foriuerly belonged to this society, 
 leaving the meeting house, which, when built, 
 was In the center on the extreme east side. Be- 
 ing thus crowded to the wall on the east it 1)C- 
 came necessary to make a westward movement, 
 and a chapel has just been erected at Tilton's 
 corner, where there will be a regular preaching 
 service every Sunday afternoon. The original 
 number of mcmlters was 33; present member- 
 ship 32. 
 
 The otficers of the church have been as fol-

 GRACE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH 
 1870. 
 
 This was an outgro^vth of the Wesley 
 Methodist Episcopal church. The limited 
 church accommodations of the latter society led 
 to the formation of a new society and the erec- 
 tion of another edifice for worship. The first 
 steps toward the new organization were taken in 
 the early part of the year 1870. On February 
 
 14 of that year "The Second Methodist Episco- 
 pal society" was legally organized in the ofiice 
 of H. N. Merrill, Esq., in accordance with the 
 laws of this commonwealth. Their first public 
 services were held in Music hall, March 6. 1870, 
 Gilbert Haven, D. D., then editor of Zion's 
 Herald, but since one of the bishops of the 
 Methodist Episcopal church, preaching the ser- 
 mon. By March 31sr, 1870, the membership of 
 the new societj- numbered seventv'-four, all of 
 whom had been received by letter from the first 
 church. April 11, 1870, Rev. L. D. Barrows, D. 
 D., was appointed the first pastor. August 3, 
 
 1870, the first excai ation was made on the land 
 purchased some years previously for the purpose 
 of erecting thereon a new church. The corner 
 
 I stone was laid September 23d, 1870, and June 
 
 i 4th, 1870, the vestries were dedicated to the ser- 
 
 i vice of God. The complete structure was dedi- 
 
 j cated September 21, 1871. November 19, 1871, 
 
 Dr. Barrows was compelled by failing health to 
 
 resign his charge and the conference year was 
 
 tilled out by supplies from the Theological 
 
 school of the Boston Universitj'. In April, 
 
 1871, Rev. W. F. Crafts was appointed pastor 
 and remained until April, 1874, when Rev. A. 
 E. Drew was stationed over the chavgc. He 
 completed the full disciplinary term of three 
 years and was succeeded in 1877 by Rt-v. L. C. 
 Field, the present pastor. 
 
 There is connected with the church a Ladies' 
 Sewing circle which in the last ten years has 
 raised $6,411.35; an Auxiliary Woman's 
 Foreign Missionary society, which has raised 
 during the eight years of its existence $.")66.75; 
 and a juivenile Band of Helpers which has 
 raised tor missionary purposes during the six 
 years of its existence, $110.71. 
 
 Since its formation, Grace church lias received

 PORTLAND STREET BAPTIST CHURCH. 
 1859. 
 
 This church, originally called the Third Bap- 
 tist Church, owes its existence to the large increase 
 in the members of the First Baptist Church of 
 this city consequent upon the great awakening 
 of 1857-8. A colony of 58 members of the First 
 Church was dismissed to form this body. The 
 first public meeting was held in December, 
 1858, and tiie body was formally organized l\v 
 an ecclesiastical council, February 3d, 1859. 
 
 For the first tive years services were held in 
 the Town Hall and in Music Hall. The meet- 
 ing-house on Portland street was dedicated Mareh 
 31, 1864, and rededicated after extensive im- 
 provement, October 31, 1871.

 THE NORTH CHURCH. 
 1859. 
 
 The North Church society was first formed 
 -March 1, 1859, and on the 19th of the same 
 month it was decided to take measures to form 
 a new church to be connected with said societj'. 
 
 This church was formed at the house of Moses 
 Hor- on the 20th of the same month, b}^ a council 
 convened for that pui-pose, with 29 male and 53 
 female members dismissed and recommended 
 from the Center Church and one male and one 
 female from the Bradford Church. In the after- 
 noon of the same day a public service was held, 
 Professor Phelps of Andover seminary preach- 
 ing the sermon ; and the new North Church was 
 dulj' constituted and received into the fellowship 
 of the churches. On April 4th, Rev. B. F. Hos- 
 ford was unanimously invited to become pastor 
 but declined on the 30th. April 8th, Luther 
 Johnson was chosen treasurer; and on the 10th 
 of July the first infant baptism was administered 
 in the new church. July 14th, Rev. A. H. 
 Quint of Jamaica Plain was unanimously invited 
 to the pastorate, but declined October 18. July 
 20th the corner stone of a new church edifice was 
 laid, and on February 15, 1860, the chui-ch, cost- 
 
 ing iJSO.OOO, including organ, furniture, etc., was 
 dedicated. The building committee were Messrs. 
 Moses How, James H. Carlcton, Abel Cha^e, 
 Elias 1*. Ingalls, John P. Randall, David Fitts, 
 Franklin Brickett and William M. Chase. On 
 August 8th, 1860, Rev. R. H. Seeley, the first 
 and only pastor thus far, was installed. 
 
 Connected with the church is a very large and 
 flourishing Sunday school; a Ladies Sewing 
 society formed April 5, 1859 ; the Industrial 
 society, formed in 1868; the Pentucket Mission 
 band, formed in 1875 ;and the Woman's Mission-

 FIRST METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH. 
 
 1851. 
 
 Prior to the year 1833, the Rev. Messrs. 
 Pickering, Broadhead, Peaslee and other Meth- 
 odist clergymen preached occasionally in a 
 Union church at West Parish, but we learn of 
 no attempts to organize a society until the 
 above date ,when three gentleuicn : Paul Chase, 
 Moses M. Chase and a Mr. Southgate, united 
 in a class and the Rev. Mr. Robbins of Salem, 
 N. H.. preached in the afternoon of alternate 
 Sundavs during the summer, in Academy hall. 
 Messrs. Paul Chase and Southgate moving 
 from town, caused the effort to organize a so- 
 ciety to cease and there was nothing done, 
 until 1836 when 0. S. Boynton, J. S. George, 
 W. W. Chase, Rachel Oilman and Caroline 
 Churchill, united in a class and were supplied 
 with preaching for one j'ear, by various clergy- 
 man from abroad. 
 
 In the spring of 1837, the Rev. Samuel Norris 
 was sent from Conference as «pastor, who re- 
 mained about six months. In 1838 the Rev. 
 James McKane served as pastor, in 1839 Rev. 
 Joseph Bradbury, and in 1840 Rev. Mr. Brews- 
 ter. 
 
 In 1841 Mr. Brewster was returned, but 
 becoming interested in the anti-slavery question 
 remained only half of the year and the Rev. L. 
 C. Mattack finished the year. In 1842 the Rev. 
 G. Otis Smith was appointed as pastor of the 
 change, but becoming an Adventist, after a 
 brief pastorate, the charge was supplied the

 Blodgett was sent as pastor, but served only a 
 >-liort time and the Rev. Ezekiel Adams finish- 
 ed the year. In 1845 the Rev. 0. H. Chase 
 was sent as pastor but remained onlj' a few 
 months, when the society was left without re- 
 ligious services, which continued for over six 
 years. The society disbanded and those who 
 were so disposed united with the church in 
 Salem, N. H. 
 
 In IS'jO Moses W. Chase made a persistent 
 effort to again organize a Methodist cliurch.and 
 in the evening of the 14th day of August a 
 class meeting was held at the house of Mr. 
 Fitts. The persons present were Joseph Fitts 
 and wife, James Riley, Moses M. Chase and a 
 a Mr. Ainsworth. Soon after another meeting 
 was held at the house of James Riley on Cottage 
 street. There were thirteen person at this 
 meeting. Thus these class meetings continued 
 to increase in numbers and interest, and Sabbath 
 evening prayer meetings were opened and car- 
 ried on successfully. 
 
 The present society was organized February 
 14, 1851. The Rev. Mr. Cass of Salem, N. H., 
 preached the sermon. The ser ^-ices were held 
 in Athemeum hall on Main street, and were 
 continued liy supplies until Conference in the 
 spring of 185'2 from the Concord Biblical Insti- 
 tute.

 THE CENTRE CHURCH. 
 1833. 
 
 The Centre Church is real!}" a continuation 
 of the First Church. A majority of the voters 
 of the parish of the First Cliurch, on account of 
 the uncompromising-orthodoxy of Rev. Dudley 
 Phelps, voted, November 8, . 1832, to dissolve 
 the connection between them. Eighty-nine 
 church members of a total of ninety-one, 
 aggrieved at this action of the parish, were 
 recognized bj' an ecclesiastical council, August 
 28, 1833, under the name of "The Centre Con- 
 gregational Church," with Rev. Joseph 
 Whittlesey as pastor. 
 
 The corner stone of the church was laid June 
 28, 1834, and it was dedicated December 17th 
 of the same year. The cost of the building 
 was about §8000, the land being given by 
 Messrs. David and John Marsh. In 1859 this 
 I'uilding was remodeled, a new front, tower 
 and steeple being added, at an expense of 
 
 about 811,000. This edifice was lededicatcd, 
 January 27, 1860, the pastor. Rev. B. F. Hos ■ 
 ford, preaching the sermon. The seats are now 
 owned by the society, and the current expenses 
 are met by direct taxation on the sittings. In 
 1878, the church edifice was again remodeled 
 so as to give Sunday School rooms and parlors 
 in the basement, and the audience room was 
 also improved. The total expense was about 
 $8.300, and there is no debt. The reconstructed 
 house was rededicated, Tuesday cvening,Nov. 19, 
 1878, the several clergymen of the city churches 
 being present and laking part in the exercises.

 THE FRENCH CATHOLIC CHURCH. 1871. 
 
 TheFrend. Catholic Church was established 
 by the Oblate Fathers of Lowell in 1871, who 
 attend twice a month. In 1872 Rev. Father 
 Michaud had charge of the new French Con- 
 gregation of Lawrence and that of Haverhill, to 
 be attnded twice a month, when Rev. Father 
 Casgrain was put in his place by the Most 
 Reverend Archbishop J. J. Williams of Boston, 
 during the nionth of October in the same year 
 1872. This French church was then known 
 under the name of St. John the Baptist Church. 
 The services were held in West hall, on Water 
 street, for four years. In 1875, Rev. Father 
 Casgrain began the construction of the new 
 French Church, which is on the corner of Grand 
 and Locust streets. That church has cost, 
 furniture and all included, over ^19,000, of 
 which $13,000 has been paid to the Lowell 
 Central Savings Bank, where the Archbishop 
 of Boston had made the loan to build with. 
 
 The number of ineml)ers of that church have 
 considerably increased, and the new church 
 woula be too small now if all the pew owners 
 attend the services. It is supposed that about 
 100 families from Canada and other parts of the 
 United States have come to Haverhill since last 
 year. 
 
 A committee of 15 members of the congrega- 
 tion have the management of the financial busi- 
 ness of the Church, under the care of the 
 priest, who, in Catholic dioceses, has to give

 account to the archbishop every year. The 
 Church now has the name ov vocable of St. 
 Joseph. 
 
 SOUTH (CHRISTIAN1 CHURCH. 
 1806. 
 
 The first meeting ot t'aose woo formed the 
 Christian church in this city was held in Bratl- 
 ford in December 1803 at the house of John 
 Marble, on which occasion Rev. Elias Smith 
 preached. September 26, 1804:, Eider Smith 
 preached again in Bradford ami again in Haver- 
 hill fill" tlie first time, November 27, 1804. Dur- 
 ing the year 1805 meetings were held in Haver- 
 hill and Bradford at irregular intervals Iiy 
 Elders Smith, Jones. Pottle and others. The 
 record of the date of formation of the church is 
 April 9, 1806. On that day the brethren and 
 sisters in Haverhill and Bradford who had be- 
 fore l)cen considered themselves memoers of the 
 church of Christ in Portsmouth, N. H. organ- 
 ized as a Church of Christ to be in connection 
 with the church in Portsmouth, Boston and 
 other places where this sect was organized. 
 
 For several years meetings were held in pri- 
 vate houses but finally a large room was ob- 
 tained in the Whittier block, Merrimac street. 
 The church was supplied wholly by itinerant 
 preachers during this earlj' period among whom 
 were Elders Smith, Jones, Pottle, Palmer, 
 Rand, Plummer, Farnham, Ramzey, Foster 
 and Capron. The interest in the church grad- 
 iially declined until meetings were discontinued 
 in 181G. An unsuccessful attempt was made 
 to reorganize the church in 1821 but in 1823 the 
 church was reorganized and a glorious revival 
 followed. Meetings were now held in the old 
 Haynes house uhich stood near the corner of 
 Emerson and Merrimac streets. In 1824 the 
 church erected, and detlicated in the month of 
 of October, a brick chapel on the west side of 
 Washington square which they called the 
 "Christian Union Chapel." 
 
 In June, 1825, Elder Ebenezer Robinson was 
 acknowledged as pastor of the church. He 
 was succeeded by Elder Henry Plummer who 
 continued the faithful and successful pastor of 
 the church till 1843 when his connection was 
 dissolved at his own request. Elder Edwin 
 Burnham then supplied for three months and 
 was followed by Elder J. C. Davis who sup- 
 plied for a period of five months. Elder Tim- 
 othy Cole then became pastor of the church 
 and was succeeded at the expiration of two 
 years by Elder H. P. Guilford who remained 
 with the church two years. He in turn w^as 
 succeeded by Elder A. H. Martin who remained 
 
 two j'eais and six months. Elder (icorg' 
 Pierce remaired with the church two years. 
 Elder John W.-r aley three months. Elder Al- 
 bert Curtland eighteen months. August 3, 
 1856, Elder Plummer received a second call to 
 liecomc pastor of tne church and remained with 
 them six months. He was succeeded by Eluer 
 Leonard B. Hatch who remained until he wa-^ 
 dismissed at his own request in 1861. During 
 Filler Hatch's pastorate the chapel was re- 
 modeled and repaired thoroughly and a steeple 
 and bell adiJed the improvements costing $8000. 
 I'he church was then re-dedicated in 1860, May 
 
 17. 
 Elder J. C. Emery was pastor of the church 
 
 two years and was succeeded by Elder A. A. 
 Williams who remained three years. Elder C. 
 A. Beck assumed pastorate of the church at his 
 departure and remained until April 1880, a pe- 
 riod of two years and six months. Since thci 
 the church has been supplied principally l)\ 
 Elder Edwards of Boston. 
 
 A number of years ago the chapel on Wash- 
 ington square was torn down and their present 
 edifice erected on Washington street. 
 
 The old records of the secretary are imper- 
 fect and it is impossible to give a full list of 
 secretaries and treasurers. The two offices 
 have been held usually by one person and so

 FIRST UNIVERSALIST SOCIETY. 
 18-^3. 
 
 The first religious service held by this society 
 was in the First Parish Feb. 1811, in the First 
 Parish Church. There was not a regular orga- 
 nization in town until March 17, 1823, when 
 fifteen persons met at the tavern of Asaph Ken 
 dall and organized themselves by choosing Bar 
 nard Goodridge moderator, and Thomas Meader 
 clerk and treasurer. The name adopted was : 
 "The First Universalist Society in Haverhill and 
 adjacent towns." The first sermon before the 
 new society was by Rev. Hosea Ballon in the 
 old Masonic hall which stood on the north side 
 of Water street. The meeting house was erected 
 on Summer street in 1825. It was brick and 
 without a steeple, but in 1835 a steeple was 
 added. In 1855 the present house was bui't 
 and dedicated January 10, 1856. In January, 
 1836 a bell was presented to the society by its 
 members. The society was taken into fellow- 
 ship by the General Convention of Universa- 
 lists, 1828. On the 27th of June, 1833, thirty- 
 seven members of the society were dismissed to

 ST. GREGORY'S CATHOLIC. 
 1858. 
 
 The first Catholic religious services held in 
 town were on the second Sabbath of September, 
 1850. An officiating priest from Lawrence had 
 occasionally visited the city previous to this 
 date, holding religious services on a week day. 
 Rev. John T. McDonnell, a native of Galway, 
 Ireland, who had just arrived in this country 
 was the first pastor. The foundations for a 
 church edifice were laid early in the fall of 1850, 
 and on July 4, 1852, tte building was appropri- 
 
 ately dedicated. A fine house for the priest, 
 immediatel}' adjoining tlie church, wa« also 
 erected. In 1859 the church was considerably 
 enlarged, and soon after that a school for Cath- 
 olic children was opened in the church vestry. 
 There have been l)ut few changes of the priests 
 in charge of the church, which is at present 
 faithfully and well cared for by Father James 
 O'D^herty, pa.stor, and Rev. Edward J. Mur- 
 phy, assistant pastor. 
 
 THE WEST PARISH. 
 1734. 
 
 In 1734 tiie west part of the town, by vote of 
 the Legislature, was made the "West Parish of 
 Haverhill." The first parish meeting was held 
 May 1 of that year, at the house of Thomas 
 Hayes, who was chosen moderator with Peter 
 Ayer as parish clerk. It was then voted to 
 build a meeting-house, which was completed 
 the same year, the first services being held in 
 October. A "Mr. Googgins" was the first 
 minister, preaching four Sabbaths, followed by 
 a "Mr Skiner'" for two months, who was fol- 
 lowed by Rev. Samuel Batchellor, who was 
 settled soon after accepting the call from the 
 parish, which was July 2l, 1735. From 1809 to 
 1818 the various denominations then included 
 in the parish divided the amount of preaching 
 in proportion to the amount paid by them in 
 taxes to the parish treasurer. In 1829 the 
 Congregationalists, finding themselves in a 
 minority, withdrew and erected a new orick 
 church of their own, one mile west of the old 
 parish meeting-house. The new society 
 
 claimed to be the 'Church," and in Maj- 4, 
 1831 Rev. Abijah Cruss was installed as its 
 pastor. The "Parish" remained as a Universa- 
 list society, and in the latter part of 1829 Rev. 
 Daniel D. Smith was settled over them as 
 pastor. In 1852 the Congregationalists, by 
 paying $2400, became entitled to the rights of 
 the "Parish," and to the possession of the 
 Webster fund, then consisting of several 
 thousand dollars, given in 1828 under such 
 conditions that it could not be used before 
 some such consolidation was effected.

 1828 owing to dissensions in the parish.

 TRINITY CHURCH 
 1855. 
 
 Episcopal worship was held in this town as 
 early as 1767, it is supposed, for from this year 
 to 1774, Rev. Mr. Badger, M. A., who was a 
 resident of Haverhill and itinerant missionary 
 of the society for the propagation of the Gospel 
 in New Hampshire, held services in all the 
 towns and hamlets in this vicinity, and it is 
 quite likely he often held exercises in Haver- 
 hill the home of his fanily. On account of bis 
 toryism, Mr. Badger was obliged to flee to the 
 Mother country in 1775. Rev. RanaCossit, who 
 was licensed by the Bishop of London to 
 officiate in New England, March, 1773, is regis- 
 tered at Fulham as an incumbent of "Haverhill 
 Parish." Form 1775 to 1820 very few services 
 were held, but during six months of 1820 
 services were held regularly with an average 
 attendance of about sixty, embracing some of 
 the most intelligent and influential men in the 
 town. A Mr. Hovey and Hon. J. H. Duncan 
 frequently conducted the exercises. Failing to 
 secure a resident minister services ceased 
 From 1833 to 1835 occasionally there were 
 services, and then from this time to June 1855 
 rarely were meetings held. 
 
 In June 18.55 Mr. Charles Wingate made an 
 organized effort to establish an Episcopal 
 church. An interview with Mr. B. R. Dovvnes 
 of B adford resulted in securing the First 
 Parish church in which to hold the first meet- 
 ing. This meeting was held July 22, 1855. On 
 this occasion Rev. Dr. Packard of Lawrence 
 otflciated. Considerable interest was awakened, 
 and Rev. W. Calvin Brown, then of the diocese 
 ot Missouri, having accepted an invitation to 
 take charge of the movement, arrived here 
 August 11, and the next day held the first reg- 
 ular service in the chapel of the Center Congre- 
 gational society. On the 8th of October 1855 a 
 parish was organized by the name of Trinity 
 Church, Rev. Mr. Brown as rector. On the 
 8th ot May 1856 the corner stone of the church 
 edifice was laid, and on the 7th of January 1857 
 the building was dedicated. The cost of the 
 building was about .$7000, In 1865 the church 
 was enlarged by the addition of a transept. In 
 September 1869, a chime of new bells was put 
 into the belfry.
