HISTORY OF WINDHAM COUNTY.
elements. Windham has to face the inevitable accompaniments of rapid growth and expansion-the rowdyism and vice that congregate in thiekly-settled communities, the changed character of her rural population. Probably half the foreign-born* operatives who run the mills that bring so much wealth to the County become in time incor- porated into its population. An unknown factor of little appreciable influence, representing at present scarcely more than a negative quan- tity, it may prove a most positive force in working out its future destiny. To these tendencies she opposes the transforming power of her civil and religions institutions, and the stability and sound sense of her native population. The churches that have done so much for her past development are still at work. Not one of her original town churches has become extinet, and very many have been added. While church attendance and strict Sabbath-keeping have declined since they ceased to be compulsory, the number of churches proportionably to the population has doubled. Representing many shades of religious belief, they are all on the side of right living, of moral and spiritnal advancement. Its ministry is as of old, able, active, aggressive, eager to labor and to lead in every effort for the elevation and purification of churches and communities, and its hands are strengthened by many faithful men and women, who, discerning the signs of the time. are ready to do their part in helping forward the good and resisting the evil. With such conserving and reformatory forces, and the continued blessing of the kind Providence that has so happily sustained and guided her on her way, it may be hoped that Windham will overcome every threatening or inanspicious element, that her moral and spiritual development will keep pace with material growth, that through coming generations she will increase in prosperity and influence, and maintain an honorable position as a " corner-stone " of Connecticut and the Republic.
* The French operatives, with scarce an exception, take their savings back to Canada, and make no attempt to assimilate with the Yankees. The Irish who predominate at Willimantic usually buy small farms and become per- manent residents.

A
Inquiry has been made as to the origin of the names of the several towns in Windham County. Judge Sewall's record gives the data concerning Woodstock, and it is believed that the names were generally given by some high official in memory of some special locality in the Mother Country. Governor Fitz-John Winthrop had the honor of naming Plainfield and prob- ably Canterbury. Governor Saltonstall is believed to have named Kil- lingly, Pomfret and Ashford. With other English possessions derived from distinguished ancestry, he held the " Manor of Killingly, near 'Ponte- fract [Ponfret, Pomfret] in Yorkshire,'" which undoubtedly suggested the names given to the former towns. Ashford was so called from its great number of ash trees. The Volunteer's Land was appropriately called Volun- town. Thompson preserves the name of its early English proprietor Sir Robert Thompson.

It has been a matter of surprise that no account has been discovered in any cotemporary newspaper of Putnam's adventure with the wolf. The first detailed report of that famous exploit would seem to be that in his own biography prepared by Colonel Humphrey, 1788, under the direction of General Putnam himself, and Dr. Albigence Waldo. The following extract found in a copy of the Norwich Packet, 1784, shows what extraordinary versions had attained circulation in England :-
[" From a late London Magazine].
ANECDOTES OF THE LATE CELEBRATED AMERICAN GENERAL PUTNAM.
We read that David slew a lion and a bear, and afterwards that Saul trusted him to fight Goliath. In Pomfret lived Colonel Israel Putnam, who slew a she bear and her two cubs with a billet of wood. The bravery of this action brought him into public notice; and, it seems, he is one of fortune's favorites. The story is as follows :-- In 1754, a large she bear came in the night from her den, which was three miles from Putnam's house, and took a sow out of a pen of his. The sow, by her squeaking, awoke Mr. Putnam, who hastily run in his shirt to the poor creature's relief; but before he could reach the pen, the bear left it, and was trotting away with the sow in her mouth. Mr. Putnam took up a billet of wood, and followed the screamings of the sow, till he came to a foot of a mountain, where the den was. Daunt- less he entered the horrid cavern, and after walking and crawling upon his hands and knees for fifty yards, came to a roomy cell, where the bear met him

with great fury. He saw nothing but the fire of her eyes; but that was suthì- cient for our hero; he accordingly directed his blow, which at once proved fatal to the bear, and saved his own life at a most critical moment. Putnam then discovered and killed two cubs; and having, though in Egyptian dark- ness, dragged them and the dead sow, one by one, out of the cave, he went home, and calmly reported to his family what had happened. The neighbors declared, on viewing the place by torchlight, that his exploit exceeded those of Samson or David. Soon afterwards the general assembly appointed Mr. Putnam a Lientenant in the army marching against Canada. His courage and good conduct raised him to the rank of Captain the next year. The third year he was made a Major; and the fourth a Colonel. Putnam and Rogers were the heroes through the last war. Putnam was so hardy, at a time when the Indians had killed all his men, and completely hemmed him in upon a river, as to leap into the stream, which in a minute carried him down a stupendous fall, where no tree could pass without being torn to pieces. The Indians reasonably concluded that Putnam, their terrible enemy, was dead, and made their report accordingly at Ticonderoga; but soon after, a scouting party found their sad mistake in a bloody rencounter. Some few that got off declared that Putnam was yet living, and that he was the first sou of Hob- bamoekow, and therefore immortal. However, at length the Indians took this terrible warrior prisoner and tied him to a tree; where he hung three days without food or drink. They did not attempt to kill him for fear of offending Hobbamockow ; but they sold him to the French at a great price. The name of Putnam was more alarming to the Indians than cannon, and they never would tight him after his escape from the falls. He was afterwards redeemed by the English."

Windham's Frog Battle found a wider place in literature. It was first noticed in a private letter from Dr. Stiles, June, 1754. Dr. Samuel Peters gives an absurdly exaggerated account of the affair in his " History of Con- necticut," 1781, representing that the frogs " filled a road forty yards wide and four miles in length," and were several hours passing through the town. A ballad founded upon his narrative was soon after its publication published in the Providence Gazette entitled " The Frogs of Windham -an Old Colony Tale founded on Fact-by Arion." Another version of the story, the well- known "Lawyers and Bullfrogs," was published some years later, aiming rather to ridicule the prominent men of Windham than to give any authentic report of the panie. Its authorship was ascribed to " Master Tilden " of Lebanon, on grounds apparently quite insufficient. Another ballad, called " The Bull-frog Fight," was given to the world in the Boston Museum of 1851. George Webb, Esq., Elizabeth, New Jersey, sends the following account received in childhood from old Sinda, wife of Jack, Colonel Dyer's body-servant :-
" Well it was in June, I think, and the weather was very hot, and Master had drawn off the Pond to fix the dam. When he came home he did not think of nothin'-by and by when it became cool there began to be a rumble, rumble, rumble in the air, and it grew louder and louder and louder, and seemed to be like drums beating in the air. Well, it was in the old French War, when our men had gone to Belle Isle or Canada to fight the French and Indians, and some guessed it was the Injuns having a powwow or war dance on Chewink Plain, and we should all be killed in the morning. But Master and Colonel Elderkin and Mr. Gray mounted their horses and rode to the top of Mullein Hill, and as the pond was a little over there beyond they found out what it was-and the scare was over. Master said he supposed the frogs fought each other for the next day there were thousands of them dead. They croaked some the next night but nothing so bad."

As slavery left behind so few traces that it is hard to believe it ever existed in the County, it may be well to preserve the following advertisement found in the Connecticut Gazette, 1774 :-
" TEN DOLLARS REWARD.
R UN AWAY from the subscriber, in Canterbury, on the Night following the 26th instant, a Mulatto Slave, named Sampson, about five Feet eight Inches high, and thirty Years of Age. He is a Slender built Fellow, has thick Lips, a eurled, Mulatto Head of Hair, uncut, and goes stooping forward. He had on and carried with him, when he eloped from his Master, a half wore Felt Hat, a black and white Tow Shirt, a dark brown Jacket, with Sleeves cuffed, and Pewter Buttons down before, a Butter Nut colored Great Coat, with Pewter Buttons, a Pair of striped long Trowsers, and a pair of short white Ditto, a Pair of white Tow Stockings, and a Pair of single channel Pumps. Whoever will take up said Slave, and deliver him to the Subscriber, in Canterbury, shall have the above Reward, and all necessary Charges paid by me. DANIEL TYLER.

NOTE .- This son of Abner Richmond of Westford, had established himself in legal practice in Ashford as early as 1831, administered the Probate Office for a number of years to public satisfaction, and, notwithstanding the unfounded allusions, pages 565-68, has survived the professional service of half a century, and is still able to expound the law to others, though not engaged in active practice. Judging from his own vitality, and the well- preserved longevity of his respected brothers in Westford, Ashford may retain its "last lawyer " for many years.
