HISTORY OF WOLCOTT.
mentioned by name as given above except the one at the Mill place, or at Daniel Byington's. It is probable that the schools in some of these districts were kept in pri- vate houses, and perhaps most of them at first, but when school houses were erected the Southeast district and the one at the Mill place were discontinued, as we learn of no school-house sites in these parts of the town. The East district continued many years ; the school-house standing at the corner of the roads a litle east of Mr. Mark Tuttle's present dwelling house. This was the house in which Mr. David Harrison taught school much of the time for many years. The other districts, six in number, still continue.
EXPENSES OF THE SCHOOLS.
The expenses were paid "by the poll," that is, parents paid for their children, for each in proportion to the whole number of pupils and the number of days in at- tendance. Under this system it was often quite difficult for some parents to pay their school bills, and because of this many children were educated very little. Until the town was organized, the number of months the schools should be kept was decided by parish vote, and usually was voted to be according to law, but sometimes the vote was to "keep eleven months school." Wages were, for a man, from six to ten dollars a month, for a woman one dollar a week, and a school bill of eighty-eight dollars for the year was a great amount to be paid by the district, and was in reality a much greater burden then than any tax for schooling at the present time.
It is a matter of great congratulation to the people of this town that nearly three-fourths of the expenses of the schools are now paid by receipts other than taxes on the property of the town. The fund of $8,500 left to this town by the late Addin Lewis, of New Haven, a native of Wolcott, is of very great value in sustaining the schools. The income from this fund amounts to five hun-

dred dollars per year, and with the fidelity continued that has characterized its administration hitherto, it will be hereafter a benefit incalculably great. That part of the will of Mr. Lewis which relates to Wolcott is given.
THE WILL OF ADDIN LEWIS AS IT RELATES TO THE TOWN OF WOLCOTT.
Section 8. If my said daughter shall die without disposing by her will of the estate mentioned in the foregoing article, I do give, devise, and bequeath all said estate (so not disposed of by her) to her lineal descendants who shall be living at the time of her death, in the same manner and proportions as the same would have descended and been distributed to them if she had owned the same as her own proper estate, and had died intestate and solvent ; and if there should be no lineal descendants of my said daughter living at the time of her death, I give, devise, and be- queath ten thousand dollars of said estate to the School Society of the town of Wolcott, in Connecticut, for the purposes hereinafter expressed ; and fifteen thousand dollars of said estate to the School Society of the town of Southington, in Connecticut, for the purposes hereinafter expressed ; and five thousand dollars of said estate to "The President and Fellows of Yale College, in New Haven," for the purposes hereinafter expressed ; and the balance of said estate shall go to increase proportionally the devises and legacies given in the following articles of this will.
And as to the said ten thousand dollars given as aforesaid to the School Society of the town of Wolcott, I direct that said So- ciety shall hold the same as a permanent fund for the encourage- ment of the district schools in said town, and said Society shall annually pay the net income of said fund to the different school districts in said town in proportion to the number of children as ascertained by law; but every school district shall raise and ex- pend for the support of district schools in such district during the year a sum equal to the sum to be paid to such district from the income of this fund, otherwise such district shall not for such year receive any part of said income, but the proportion of such dis- trict shall go to increase proportionally the sums to be paid for such year to the other districts as aforesaid; and if all the school districts in the said town of Wolcott shall neglect for any year to
202
HISTORY OF WOLCOTT.
comply with the conditions aforesaid, then the whole of the net income of said fund for such year shall be paid to the different school districts in the town of Southington for the purposes and on the conditions aforesaid; and if all the school districts in the town of Southington shall neglect for any year to comply with the conditions aforesaid, then the whole of the net income of said fund for such year shall go to increase proportionally the devises and legacies given in the following articles of this will :
And whenever any persons or corporation shall have in their hands money to be invested in execution of any part of this will, I do expressly direct that said money shall in all cases be invested in mortgage security of unencumbered real estate of double the value of the amount of the loan secured thereon; and all loans may be varied from time to time on similar security.
In regard to the Southington Academy, for the erec- tion and maintaining of which Mr. Lewis gave fifteen thousand dollars, he made this provision : "And all pu- pils from the town of Wolcott, not exceeding ten at any one time, who may wish to receive instruction in said in- stitution, shall receive the same without any charge for tuition."
The income from this Lewis Fund of Wolcott, was five hundred dollars for the year 1873. In the same year were received from the School Fund and State appropri- ation two hundred and twenty dollars ; from the Town Deposit Fund, one hundred and thirty dollars ; in all eight hundred and fifty dollars. The actual expenses of all the schools for the same year were about twelve hundred dollars.
THE WHIPPING POST.
The whipping post stood east of the present Meeting house at the Center, near the southeast corner of the present horse sheds. Besides the three persons men- tioned below, it is said, there were one man and a col- ored woman whipped at this post for stealing.
About the year 1815, Dr. George Williams (so he titled
203
LAW IN WOLCOTT.
himself), traveling through Wolcott, stayed over night at the house of Mark Upson, where he stole a shawl, and for which after trial, the court ordered seven lashes on the bare back. His hands were tied to the post a little higher than his head, and Capt. Levi Hall, constable, struck three blows when the lash came off, when some one said to the .constable, "I am afraid the old man will not stand the blows quite so hard." The remaining blows were given lighter, the old man trembling greatly under the punishment. He was then taken to the store and his back washed with rum, upon which the old man said : "O my God, that is worse than the stripes, I think I will have a little inside," which was not denied him.
Pond and Granniss were convicted of stealing a cow about the year 1817, for which, after trial, the court or- dered seven lashes each. Their hands were tied as in the case of Williams, and Levi Parker, constable, laid the blows on Granniss with considerable severity, he remain- ing stubborn and making no complaint. Pond was very penitent, and while they were tying his hands to the post he prayed God to have mercy on him, the tears fall- ing from the eyes of many who witnessed the unpleasant scene. The blows were given lightly, and while putting on his coat, Pond said: "It is just that it was done." It is thought that this was the last whipping done at the whipping post in the town.
LAW IN WOLCOTT.
Besides the above described whipping I have heard of no criminal proceedings in the courts of the town, nor in the county, concerning the inhabitants of Wolcott, of any special importance, except that which was instituted in regard to the burning of the first Meeting house. There were some old " stocks" for fastening the feet of criminals, laid up many years in the horse sheds which stood west of the Meeting house, but no one remembers to have heard of any use to which they were ever put except to
204
HISTORY OF WOLCOTT.
look at. The real facts I apprehend to have been these : There have existed in natural character and disposition of the people too much musical talent and good nature to allow disturbances of any serious kind to obtain a place of recognition among the people, and therefore they have worked hard, given much time and attention to singing, played the fife and drum, encouraged cheer- fulness by pleasant associations, kept out of mischief, out of gaol, and off the gallows, and given as earnest adherence to religion as the average of country towns.
SMALL POX.
This disease was a great terror to the people and had made sad desolation in several families in the town before the year 1800. The following record indicates the con- servatism of the people of those days in regard to the introduction of any new practice in medicine.
" At a special Town meeting held in Wolcott on the 27th day of October, 1800, Dr. John Potter prayed for liberty to set up or introduce the small pox by inocculation, into said town under the care, superintendence, and direction of the civil authority and se- lectmen of said town for the time being, or their successors in of- fice, until said civil authority and selectmen, or the town at large by vote in legal meeting assembled, shall discontinue or suspend said liberty at the same meeting.
Voted to grant the prayer of the above petition, two-thirds of the members [voters] present being in the affirmative."
BURYING GROUNDS-THE CENTER BURYING GROUND.
In the Waterbury town records we learn the following action was taken in a town meeting held on December Ioth, 1764 : " At the same meeting Capt. George Nichols, .and Capt. Stephen Upson, jr., were chosen a committee to go out eastward near Joseph Atkins', to view and pur- chase half an acre of land, upon the town cost, in that
205
BURYING GROUNDS.
neighborhood where they shall think it most convenient for a burying ground."*
The earliest record on monuments is that of Lieut. Heman Hall, bearing date 1769.
In the Wolcott town records are found the following entries :
December 1I,, 1797. Voted that Messrs. Mark Harrison, Charles Upson, Streat Richards, and Moses Todd, be a commit- tee to confer with William Stevens to investigate and search into the circumstances of the Center Burying Ground, to see if it is the property of said Stevens, as is by him asserted, and also to settle and compromise the matter with said Stevens if it appears to be his property, by exchanging a certain quantum of highway now in the enclosure of said Stevens therefor, and also to draw upon the treasurer for a small sum in order to enlarge said bury- ing ground to three-fourths of an acre; provided they think proper, and cannot obtain it without.
On the 9th day of April next the town meeting ap- pointed another committee "to negotiate with William Stevens concerning the Center Burying Ground, to en- large the same to three-fourths of an acre, to exchange the highway now enclosed in said Stevens' lot as part payment, etc., and make report of their doings at the an- nual meeting in December next." At the annual meeting in next December the report of the committee was ac- cepted, and the selectmen were authorized to attend to the execution of the deeds.
The three-quarters of an acre became too small, and about 1870 the ground was again enlarged, so as to in- clude nearly two acres.
* Mr. Bronson, in the History of Waterbury, page 229, in a note, makes a mistake in supposing this ground to be the one at East Farms, for it was to be " near Joseph Atkins'," and he never resided at East Farms. Be- sides, the East Farms ground was laid out since the memory of some per- sons now living. He says this burying ground, near Atkins', was on Farm- ington road, which was true ; but Farmington road, instead of going direct to Southington, turned up Mad River, and through New Cambridge to Farmington.

PIKE'S HILL BURYING GROUND.
This ground was laid out about 1774, by a committee of the Society appointed to " fix a place or places for burying grounds." The ground is located on the north declivity of the hill adjoining the Alcox road, in a most picturesque place. Here but few graves were made, some of which were afterwards removed to the ground east at the foot of the same hill, about fifteen yet remain- ing. Graves continued to be made in this ground until 1805, when the one east was constructed, and all burying ceased in the old yard, it having been used but thirty years. Some five or six monuments remain having in- scriptions on them ; the other graves are indicated by small field stones. The inscriptions below are given precisely as they are written on the head stones :
In Memory of Mrs. RACHEL BRACKITT, who Died October ye 17th, 1776, in YE 22D YEAR OF HER AGE.

HISTORY OF WOLCOTT.
The foregoing are all the inscriptions that remain in the old ground.
THE NEW NORTHEAST BURYING GROUND.
At a Town meeting held April 8, 1805, the meeting voted, "That the selectmen be authorized to purchase at the expense of the town such quantity of land and in such place as they in their discretion think proper and best, to be appropriated as a burying ground in the north- east quarter of the town ; and that one rod in width be taken from the south side of the highway running east and west by the proposed burying ground the whole length of said ground and appropriated as a part thereof."
This new ground is on a gravel knoll at the foot of the hill east of the old ground, and is the one now in use as the northeast burying ground.
THE SOUTHEAST BURYING GROUND.
In March, 1772, the Society appointed a committee to "fix a place or places for burying grounds," and in 1776 it appointed three grave diggers, which indicates the ex- istence of three graveyards, and their location defined by the residence of the three men-Mr. John Barrett at the Center, where he had filled the same office several pre- vious years ; Mr. Zadoc Bronson at the northeast, and Mr. David Frost at the southeast. The earliest inscrip- tion on any monument in the Pike's Hill yard is dated May 28, 1776; the earliest date in the southeast yard is January I, 1782, and is the grave of Archibald Upson, who died with small-pox.
THE SOUTHWEST BURYING GROUND.
At a Town meeting held Nov. 20, 1807, the meeting voted, "That Isaac Bronson, Mark Harrison, and Isaac Upson be a committee to view the circumstances of the southwest part of the town, and if they judge proper, lay out and purchase a burying ground in such place as they judge most convenient, and that the committee be au-

thorized to draw on the town treasurer for payment of the sum which they. shall agree to give for said ground, and take a deed thereof to the town." This is the pres- ent Woodtick burying ground.
THE YANKEE PEDDLERS.
The Yankee peddler has been a celebrated character in the Middle and Southern States more than in the Eastern, yet the origin of this kind of merchant was in the New England States, particularly in Connecticut. Wolcott raised from thirty to forty men who engaged at different times quite largely in this business, traveling through all the Middle States, and most of the Southern during the years from 1810 to 1840. Among the first who went out were Samuel Horton, Timothy Hotchkiss, Lyman Higgins, and Chester Hotchkiss. These sold "tin ware and Yankee notions ;" beginning about 1810 and continuing for a number of years in the employment of a firm in Southington, and traveling mostly in Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
When Mr. Eli Terry,* then of Plymouth, completed in the year 1810, the first great contract of four thousand clocks, for a Waterbury company, the Yankee peddler was wanted to sell these clocks, and Wolcott not only fur- nished an important man, in the person of Seth Thomas to make these clocks, but also men to sell them. Mr. Terry's shop was on Hancock River, at a place known since as Hoadleyville, being about a mile west of the boundary of Wolcott. The cords for these clocks were spun by Wolcott women from flax raised in Wolcott, and much of the inside woodwork of these clocks was made of Wolcott "ivy" or "laurel," of which there is still an abundance. For many years this work occupied the at- tention of Wolcott people, and furnished them extra work in winter and some additional comforts of life. For
* See History of " American Clock Making " by Henry Terry, of Water- bury ; and also the Biography of Mr. Seth Thomas, in this book.

HISTORY OF WOLCOTT.
a few years the clock peddling was confined mostly to the New England and Middle states, and was a different work from the selling of Yankee notions. The clocks were sold on "trial," the agent calling for the money six or more months after the delivery of the clocks, but the reg- ular Yankee peddler sold for cash, if (as we have often heard him announce), he sold "two shillings worth for a six pence," at which ruinous prices his wife and babies certainly would starve.
About 1820 the spirit of enterprise called out a new and more numerous company of young men in the work of selling tin ware and Yankee notions, in the Southern States. Among these were Ephraim Hall, Seth Horton, Holt Hotchkiss, A. Bronson Alcott, Thomas Alcott, Ja- son Hotchkiss, Leverette Kenea, William Cowles, Levi Frisbie, and many others. Some went out with a horse and peddler's wagon, selling tin ware, razors, pins, needles, patent medicines, peppermint essence, suspend- ers, and a large number of such like things, called " Yan- kee notions ;" others sold dry goods only, carrying them in two large trunks made for that purpose. Some of these men went in this employment one or two winters, while others continued until near the time of the late rebellion. Mr. Thomas Alcott was one of these, but the articles which he sold in later years consisted of carriages of various kinds, which he sold frequently on time, and hence lost considerable money by the war. The effect of this work on the young men, was to introduce them into mercantile life, which many of them continued, in one form or another, in different parts of the country, most of them making their homes and establishing them- selves in business elsewhere, rather than in Wolcott.
TAXES.
The grand list was in 1860, $291,827 ; in 1865, $297,891; in 1870, $248,677 ; in 1871, $243,640; in 1872, $236,545 ; in 1873, $241, 100. The tax collected in 1872 was eleven

mills on the dollar, and that for 1873 is ten mills. The decrease of the grand list, as appears above, is mostly in consequence of the decrease of cattle and money at inter- est, considerable money having been placed in United States bonds, and other untaxable property.
The following is a town rate made on the list of 1789, of two pence half-penny on the pound, on the inhabitants of Farmingbury, in Waterbury .*
