During the thirty-five years that elapsed after the alteration in 1878, no changes were made in the building, and as had been anticipated, it proved adequate to the needs of the public for a long time.
In 1913 it became evident that quite extensive repairs and reno- vation were necessary, and although the finances of the town did not warrant a large expenditure, it was determined to spend an amount sufficient to do the work most obviously needed. At this juncture Robert Scoville came forward with a proposition to make a complete renovation and extensive enlargement of the building, all expense incurred in excess of the amount voted by the Town, to be paid by him personally.
At a special Town Meeting held May 24, 1913,41 it was "Resolved that the town grant to Mr. Robert Scoville permission to alter and enlarge the Town Hall in accordance with his proposi-

tion and that the thanks of the town be and hereby are extended to him for his public-spirited and extremely generous offer.
Resolved that the sum of $500. be and hereby is appropriated toward the payment of such alterations."
Plans and specifications prepared by Arthur C. Jackson, an architect of New York City, were accepted and the construction contract was secured by Horace S. Kelsey of Salisbury. On June 28, 1913, ground was broken for the south addition and work by the carpenters was commenced on Aug. 16th. The entire work, with the exception of "odd jobs" and painting,42 was completed on Feb. 28, 1914, and the building was, in a sense, rededicated to public use by the Memorial Day exercises held in it on May 30th of that year.
The changes made in altering the old Town Hall into the new one, dignified and impressive in appearance and commodious in all its appointments, necessitated the expenditure of a trifle less than $17,500, and the Town may well be appreciative of the spirit of philanthropy and civic pride which actuated one man to do so much for the benefit of many.
The frontispiece of this volume so well presents the exterior appearance of the "New Town Hall" that description is unneces- sary, further than to say that the frontage of the central portion is 651/2 feet and of the wings 25 feet each, making a total front- age of 11512 feet. The pillars upholding the portico are 21 feet high and are based upon a concrete platform 7 feet 2 inches wide by 341/2 feet long.
In the old hall the stairway to the second floor was in the tower on the south end, but this tower was, of course, removed to make room for the new addition and the stairway is now directly to the left of the front entrance. At the head of the stairway the door- way on the left opens into the second story of the south wing, a handsomely furnished room 25 x 34 feet, which is occupied jointly by the Salisbury Grange and the Knights of Pythias. Two ante- rooms and a short corridor lie between this room and the main auditorium. The dimensions of the latter are practically the same
42 The exterior of the building is painted white, with green shutters. The interior side walls are buff tinted, the ceilings, wainscot and doorways are cream color, and the doors are of red birch, filled and varnished.

History of the Town Hall
as they were formerly, as the south end of it was partitioned off into anterooms, a loss of space compensated for by placing the stage in the second story of the new north wing.
The lower floor of the south wing affords a spacious room for the use of the Selectmen and other town officials and removable booths are set up in it on election days. It has an exit on the south end, so that voters passing into the booths from the hallway entrance, can deposit their ballots and pass directly out of the building. On the north side of the front entrance, the Town Clerk's office and the Probate Court room, which were formerly separated by a partition, are now thrown together into one room, with south and east side entrances from the lobby, the record vaults opening upon the north side, as formerly. On the west side of the central building, between this room and the south wing are situated a conveniently arranged and well equipped kitchen, and closets and lavatory with modern plumbing. The remaining floor space in the central part is utilized as a lobby or entrance hall, excepting the room behind the Clerk's office, formerly the kitchen, which is now a store-room for the use of the School Committee, etc. The lower floor of the north wing, with a wide doorway opening to the north, accommodates the heating plant, and the apparatus of the Salisbury Fire Department. Another entrance on the north side of the north wing opens into a private stairway which leads to the east side of the stage, on the second floor.
The grounds north, east and south of the building, unfortu- nately but necessarily restricted in area, are now graded lawns, and at the south end, Judge Warner has caused to be set up as an historic relic, one of the heavy trip hammers and its anvil base, formerly used in the iron works on Mt. Riga.
The "New Town Hall" was not rededicated by any formal action of the Town, but by a public gathering held on June 19, 1914. To quote the Lakeville Journal of June 25, 1914,-"The members of Salisbury Grange and the Knights of Pythias took possession of their quarters in the newly renovated Town Hall, last Friday evening. The occasion was marked by a joint enter- tainment and dance. * *
The principal speakers of the evening were Hon. D. T. Warner,

Hon. H. F. Landon, Rev. John Calvin Goddard, Rev. Charles B. Carpenter and Mr. William E. Pettee.
Although the threatening weather conditions kept many people away, about three hundred were present.
Many enthusiastic comments on the beauty and conveniences of the new building were heard, and the members [of the several organizations] as well as the general public are to be congratulated upon having one of the finest meeting places in the state."

VITAL RECORDS OF SALISBURY TOWN
Circa 1768-1800
INTRODUCTION
The vital records of Salisbury which were published in the first volume of "Collections" comprehended approximately the period 1730-1767 and were taken from Vol. I Land Records and the First Book of Town Meeting Records, etc. The instalment in this volume takes up the work where it was left in the last issue and carries it through the second volume of Town Meeting Records and Births, Marriages and Deaths, to what is approxi- mately the year 1800.
Owing to the family group method of recording (see Vol. I Coll's. p. 26) each original record book does not completely cover an exact period of time, as the clerk in grouping his entries would frequently carry a current date back to a book already supposed to be closed, or would, at the instance of interested persons, enter prior dates in his current record. For this reason the previous instalment, though it nominally covered the period ending in 1767, contained some entries of a later period, and this present part, though it nominally begins with the year 1768, contains a number of entries of earlier date, the earliest being 1746. In like manner the Third Book of Births, Marriages and Deaths which will furnish the vital record section for the "Col- lections," Vol. III, though it begins nominally in 1800, will con- tain many entries prior to that date.
Had it been possible to publish in one volume all Salisbury Vital Records, from the earliest period to say 1848, our alpha- betical arrangement would have eliminated these various "over- lappings," but since it has been necessary to adopt the instal- ment plan, it is only proper to explain why some date which the searcher would naturally expect to find in this issue, and has failed to find, may perchance appear in the next one.
In any event this is certain, that with a publication of one more part of the vital records, every item of that sort, to be found upon the official records of the town prior to 1848, will be in print.

The record volume from which the following entries are taken contains 92 pages of manuscript. Pages I-3 comprise a muti- lated index, pages 4-6 inclusive, 53-92 inclusive, contain Town Votes 1767-1784, and pages 7-51 inclusive are devoted to the vital records. The volume was rebound by the Emery silk process in 1898, and re-indexed the same year, but some of the margins were worn past preservation, and half of one leaf (pp. 47-8) of the vital records is missing. Most fortunately for us the late Frank E. Randall of New York City, who devoted much of his leisure to genealogy, made a fair copy of these vital records about 1895, when the leaf mentioned was still whole, and from his transcript the records of eight marriages on p. 47, and twenty- eight deaths on p. 48 have been restored, as well as occasional marginal data, which are now lost in the original. Certain other portions of the record, as indicated by brackets in the fol- lowing list, had become either mutilated or illegible, before Mr. Randall made his copy, and these can never be wholly supplied from any source.
In arranging the following data for publication, the spelling of surnames, baptismal and place names has been retained as in the original record, and every item of actual information has been included, but the order of the original has necessarily been changed by the alphabetical arrangement, and words that are either obsolete or unnecessary to the sense have been omitted.
The Randall transcript was transferred to a card index, which was then typed and checked back with the original record, and the utmost care exercised in proof-reading. This compilation is believed, therefore, to be as accurate as it is possible to make it.
READ THIS PAGE BEFORE CONSULTING THE FOLLOWING RECORDS

II Wherever in the original an event is specifically stated to have occurred at Salisbury or elsewhere it is here so stated. Where the place name is omitted, Salisbury "is understood," of course.
III Each marriage is indexed under the names of both bride and groom.
