HISTORY OF CORNWALL.
barns ; plows, carts, and wagons were all of local production, roads and bridges were homemade, books, glass, and salt the only outside necessities. Ministers, doctors, and lawyers added to their meager professional receipts by the culture of their gardens and fields. All the members of every family, young and old, pursued some useful employment. There were no idlers. There was work for all, and hands to do it.
The farmer paid the mechanic from his farm products, though every mechanic and professional man was a half-farmer, and as- sisted in the labors of the harvest. The farmers' teams found employment in transporting produce to market - Po'keepsie, New Haven, or Hartford - with needed goods in return.
Railroad transportation and improved machinery on the farm and in the shops have been the chief influences in changed con- dition. A variety of other causes have operated either singly or together against the increase of population in the rural districts. Early marriage, thrifty habits, and strong home attachments favored rapid increase of population; while on the other hand emigration to the broad fields of the West, where one man by machinery could do the work of ten hand laborers, machinery in large factories improving and cheapening the product, so that the local waterwheels so dependent upon the divine blessing, are neglected and steam power - dependent, as this winter of 1902-3 shows, upon a more precarious basis, the will of one or more men - has been doing their work. Even the timber growing on our hills has not been left to furnish employment to the citizens of towns, but the steam sawmill has come in its wasteful way to consume our timber, wear out our roads and bridges, all with outside labor and without paying a cent in taxes. Whether these changed conditions are benefits or losses depends much on cir- cumstances. We have improved our style of living. We do not want to go back to the tallow candle and the tow cloth of the past. We enjoy the comforts and privileges of the 20th century, upon which we have entered. All necessities as well as luxuries of life are cheaper and better than they were at the beginning of the last century. Our desires seem to keep up fully with our op- portunities, if haply they are not in excess. That this is not all in recollections of an old man we have reliable statistics.
In 1845, by the direction of the General Assembly, the Hon.

WEEDS AND BUSHES.
In connection with changes in agriculture one of the most notable is the incoming of foreign weeds, as well as the increase of some natives.
With the decay of sheep husbandry the farmer has lost a most efficient helper in keeping in check many annual and perennial herbs, as well as shrubs. The sheep not only eats a greater variety

HISTORY OF CORNWALL.
of plants than other domestic animals but digests the seeds more perfectly. The common daisy, ragweed, milkweed, dandelion, and wild carrot are examples where we need their help. The only troublesome weeds that they refuse are thistle, mullein, and snap- dragon.
On the other hand, some of the old weeds that lined our high- ways, flaunting their banners in defiance, have yielded to our im- proved laws and customs. All neat stock, horses, swine, and geese were allowed free range on the highways and unenclosed land. The swine kept the borders of the highways under a system of intensive culture, resulting in crops of mayweed, tall verbena, mullein, and big thistles. High fertility, induced by the dairy waste fed to swine, and wasted by them on the wayside, maintained the growth of this useless vegetation, that had not even beauty to recommend it to the traveler. The maintenance of clean road- sides is not a luxury, but now has become self-supporting, as . every land owner is protected by law in growing trees, grass, or other crops on the roadside not interfering with travel or road- making.
Cornwall is a fair representative of many of the rural towns.
The railroad opened a market for milk in New York, thus relieving the household from the labors of butter and cheese- making. The toil of spinning and weaving was released by the factories, that made cheaper and sometimes better goods. Marriage is too often delayed till that peculiar critical period in life is past - call it pivotal, or keystone, or corner stone - when the responsi- bilities of manhood and womanhood properly begin, both in out- door and indoor life, and the large families of children are found only in the records of the past.
Emigration and immigration have come in with their counter influences. Large numbers of natives have left the town, till the tide has reached the Pacific coast and the islands of the sea. Im- migration has come from the old world and Canada, but has affected the rural towns less than the young cities that have sprung up all over the state, so that most of the farms are still in posses- sion of descendants of original settlers or early purchasers.
Now, how have these people fared who have gone out and have come in? Some of those who have gone have prospered to a degree that Cornwall furnished no opportunities; but if this

population, with its industry and thrift, had remained at home on their native soil, the fields cleared of rocks would have not re- mained an exception, but every hillside would have been terraced and reclaimed, so that our fertile soil would have yielded an abundance for its teeming population, which by its patriotism, education, integrity, would have secured for us the name of the "Garden town," and "The Foreign Mission School " would not have the greatest claim for our part in the world's work of education and civilization. We could have spared some to have served the country as soldiers or statesmen, and some as philan- thropists and missionaries to the outside world. Our advantages for sanitariums and rural homes would have so developed the resources of the town that a multiplied population with all the advantages of education and comforts of life would have been the natural heritage of the people.
The movement of people, too close here and too scattered there, reminds one of the two old sayings, as true now as ever, though in direct contradiction, "The rolling stone gathers no moss," " The sitting hen never gets fat."
Cornwall still enjoys its ancient reputation for hospitality ; no skyscrapers can shut off free sunlight and air; nature con- tinually restores the forest that mantles our hills and shrouds our valleys, so that a reflex wave of population may more than realize these fancy flights.
ROADS.
The highways in Cornwall were originally laid out regardless of the face of the country, but in construction the hills had the preference, as better adapted to the most common mode of travel, on horseback. Later, turnpikes were incorporated, that were somewhat improved in layout and construction.
The Sharon and Goshen crossed the river at West Cornwall, where there was a toll-gate at the bridge, and another in Goshen near Tyler Pond. It led through Cornwall Centre and climbed Bunker Hill.
The Canaan and Washington turnpike lay through the Great Hollow, in the eastern part of the town.
The Litchfield and Canaan passed through the N. E. corner of
380
HISTORY OF CORNWALL.
the town, and the first P. O. with daily mail was in Cornwall Hollow.
These turnpikes were all given up by the middle of the last century, and their care devolved upon the town.
The people generally worked out their road tax, the town being divided into districts, each in charge of a pathmaster, who called out the taxpayers at his discretion to repair the roads, due allowance being made to each one for work, men and teams. The success of this plan depended upon the skill and energy of the path- master in directing the labor and the public spirit of the district, not always restricted to amount of tax.
About 1850 the district system was abolished, and the select- men have had charge of the roads, either by contract or other- wise.
A general interest in road improvement has resulted in the change of location of portions of roads, and the acceptance of the state bounty for three terms. Two only used as yet, have enabled the authorities to do much in improving the grade of the main thoroughfares and rendering travel more safe and comfort- able. It is not yet such as to invite the automobile - to supplant the horse, that faithful servant of man in war and peace - and we hope that event will never come, for iron and steel can never replace the companionship of the horse - his master has shared his tent and has divided his last crust with him in the desert, and he lives in history and song alike the joy of childhood and the con- fort of old age.
COUNTRY STORES, POST-OFFICES, AND INDUS- TRIES.
About 1820 there was but one or two post-offices in town. One was at Cornwall Centre, on the now vacant corner facing south and west. The store was kept by Erastus Gaylord. Soon after the meeting-house was removed to North Cornwall in 1825 Mr. Gaylord moved to Madison, N. Y., and Wm. S. Stevens built a store at North Cornwall. This store was later maintained by John Sedgwick and John Rogers, succeeded by Beers & Sons. The mail was carried from this office at Cornwall Centre to Hartford by Victory Clark in a two-horse covered wagon for
381
COUNTRY STORES, POST-OFFICES, AND INDUSTRIES.
passengers and packages. He left Cornwall Monday morning and got back Wednesday noon. The mail was then taken in a one-horse wagon to Sharon and return. Not far from this time a stage route was established from Litchfield to Poughkeepsie, crossing the river at Cornwall bridge, and a post-office established there. This line made three trips weekly. About that date a stage line from New Haven to Litchfield was continued on to -
Albany, passing through Cornwall Hollow. Through the efforts of Hon. Albert Sedgwick, afterwards School Fund Commissioner, a post-office was located in the Hollow, and he was mail con- tractor on this route. I remember, as a boy, seeing him, with only one man to help, drawing the mail through Goshen Street on a hand-sled over the snow drifts. These delights of boyhood were not so pleasant for mail-carriers.
The post-office at Cornwall Centre followed the store to North Cornwall, and after this closed, in the course of events, it was transferred to South Cornwall, and given the name of Corn- wall.
There was no post-office at West Cornwall till the Housatonic Railroad was opened, in 1841. Now, with two daily mails each way on the railroad, and free mail delivery over half the town, and some local mail routes, two telegraph stations, one with night operator, and telephones all over the town, with day and night communication with the whole round world, why should a rural community pine for the excitement of the city? It is enough to hear of daily crimes and casualties without witnessing them. En- joy peace of mind and be thankful. Take knowledge from first hands - from the Almighty Father, in all his works of creation, striving to do His will, in making the world more beautiful and all creatures more happy. As good stewards let each one of us prize and honor our heritage, and we shall have less of crowded slums and deserted farms, both destructive of the highest civiliza- tion and finest moral development.
Frederic Kellogg kept a store in Pine Street, now Cornwall, in the early part of the last century, succeeded later by Menzies Beers & Sons, and in 1882 by Wilcox. The town safe, containing all the town records, is placed in this store, which is also the post- office. Beers also succeeded Rogers at North Cornwall.
About 1880 Henry Sanford opened another country store in
382
HISTORY OF CORNWALL.
Cornwall, selling out to John Richter in 1894, who still con- tinues the business.
Lyman & Porter, of Goshen, established a store at West Corn- wall in 1841, when the Housatonic Railroad was opened to Canaan. In a few years they sold out to James Kellogg, who re- moved to Cornwall Bridge, selling out to Pratt & Foster. They enlarged the business, receiving farmers' produce of all kinds, selling dry goods and groceries, lumber, grain, and feed in this and adjoining towns. Smith & Sons took charge of the business in 1875, and united with it the store in West Goshen, where the Hart Bros. had succeeded A. Miles & Son.
In connection with the feed business Pratt & Foster had a mill, run by water, in West Cornwall, for grinding feed ; later a steam engine was used to make up for lack of water. The boiler ex- ploded, in 1899, and it was thrown through the roof high in the air, and landed some rods away without injury to any person.
About 1880 the drug store at West Cornwall was established by Dr. Brower, and passed through several hands - George H. Wheaton, W. H. Porter, and Charles N. Hall. Mr. Hall added millinery and a large stock of fancy goods.
Ransom F. Smith retired from firm of Smith & Sons in 1895, and bought out Hall, who removed to New Haven. Mr. Smith added a general assortment of goods. .
. In connection with the two furnaces there were two furnace stores that had a large trade, as they furnished all kinds of goods to their employees as long as their credit was good ; and practically these embraced most of the laboring population of the township - the farmers who raised the wood for charcoal, the woodchoppers and colliers, and teamsters for coal, ore, and iron, for this latter had to be transported to Poughkeepsie or other markets. The store at Cornwall Bridge was maintained by Russell Beirce at the old stand till sold out to George and David Smith, who continue the business, March, 1903.
The store at West Cornwall was closed at the same time as the furnace, in 1875.
The Cochrane brothers, Houston, Robert N., and James A., in- dividually or collectively began trade at West Cornwall about 1870. They traded in cattle and meat, bought the tin shop of Henry Faulois, who moved to Washington, Conn., and established
383
COUNTRY STORES, POST-OFFICES, AND INDUSTRIES.
a country store with feed mill attached. The father, James, bought land, and the sons have followed his example. Houston has retired from business, and bought the Blinn farm on the Sharon side of the river. Robert sold his house to Dr. Ives, and has removed to Bantam, and the firm of James A. Cochrane & Son now carry on the general store and meat market and farming.
Theodore Sturgis bought out the tin business and erected a large shop on adjoining location in 1899.
Mr. Allen built a casting shop opposite the hotel about 1850, afterwards used as shear shop by Volmiller and Beck, and others, and burned in 1900. Location now occupied by Masonic Hall, erected in 1902.
About 1875 the Gold Sanitary Heater Co. was formed at West Cornwall, for manufacture and sale of heaters. A casting shop was erected near the gristmill. The heaters were all right, but the casting shop was burned, with patterns, and other mis- fortunes beset the firm, with loss of capital. The casting shop was rebuilt by James Wood.
THE J. MALLINSON SHEAR CO.
J. Mallinson came to Cornwall about fifty years ago and began manufacture of shears in small shop near Stoddard's satinet fac- tory; a few years later, with John Wood, bought out the mill and water privilege at West Cornwall, and had a larger factory under the name of J. Mallinson & Co. Mr. Wood has retired from the business and left town, and Mr. Mallinson has other partners under the same firm name. They make all kinds of shears, some of the finest quality.
William Oliver, an Englishman, has returned from his visit to the old country and reopened his blacksmith shop, and bought the Howard farm of Cochrane, now in charge of Charles Bate, who came with his family on Mr. Oliver's return from England.
The Kaolin Co., owning and working a clay bed in Sharon, about three miles from West Cornwall, to facilitate their business have erected a steel bridge across the Housatonic, about one-half mile above West Cornwall, and a large storehouse for clay by a side track on the railroad. The clay is of superior quality, and a large deposit.
384
HISTORY OF CORNWALL.
FELDSPAR MINE.
A mine has just been opened on the east side of the railroad, one-half mile south of West Cornwall, for feldspar. The de- posit appears to be abundant, and of good quality. Quartz and mica are abundant, but no other minerals are found to injure the quality of the product ; these are easily rejected. The railroad has put in a side track for loading cars, and a tramway from the mine delivers the feldspar. Only surface work is required, as the vein is traced a long ways up the mountain side.
The same company, Mr. Boyce foreman, " Eureka Mining and Operating Co., Trenton, N. J.," are working at other places on the line of the Housatonic Railroad, but location gives this an advantage, and the mine promises to be a success.
Recently, as they were thawing out dynamite in their magazine, 500 pounds exploded, destroying the building and scattering things generally, but no injury to persons.
