Before commencing the preparation of the Supplement to the Directory, the author was well aware that the un- dertaking would be a novel one, and liable to various ob- jections ; but from a belief that such a work was needed and would be of essential service to many of the citizens, and to strangers visiting the place, he has been encourag- ed to make the attempt. He now submits the work to the public, hoping it will meet the wishes of those for whose assistance it was particularly intended, and of the citizens generally.
The author tenders his thanks to those Ladies and Gen- tlemen, who have so readily aided in giving information, and so generously contributed towards the expenses of the work, by their subscriptions.

HISTORICAL & STATISTACAL SKETCH
OF THE
CITY OF LOWELL.
In 1652, about twenty persons from Woburn and Concord petitioned the General Court for liberty to ex- amine a tract of land lying on the west side of Con- cord River. Having made the necessary examination, in company with about twenty others, they preferred a petition in 1653, for a grant of the land bordering on the Merrimack-near Pawtucket, in their petition they represent, that " there is a comfortable place to ac- commodate a company of God's people upon, who may with God's blessing, do good in that place for church & state." "They requested that the boundary of said land should commence at the junction of the Merrimack and the Concord rivers, and run six iniles westerly on the Morrimack, and six miles southerly on Concord river -making a tract of about thirty-six square miles .-- The tract petitioned for embraced what now consti- tutes I.owell and Chelmsford. The same year a petition on behalf of the Pawtucket Indians,-
SKETCH OF LOWELL.
was presented by the Rev. John Elliott, of Roxbury, that the land- lying about Pawtucket and Wamesit Falls should be appropriated exclusively to the use of the Indians. The petition stated that the Pawtuckets had occupied said ground, erected wigwams thereon, and prepared it in some measure for coultivation. To reconcile these conflicting interests, the Court granted to the petitioners from Woburn and Concord, the land requested, with exception of that part lying on the riv- ers, which was appropriated to the Indians.
The city of Lowell is now a part of the land grant- ed at that time by an act of Court to the Pawtucket Indians, once the most powerful and chivilric tribe in the north of Massachusetts. The historian Gookin states, that " the tribe was almost wholly destroyed by the sickness in 1612 and '13 ; and at this day (1674) there are not above two hundred and fifty men, besides women and children. What this disease was that sp generally and mortally swept away these and other In- dians in New England, I cannot learn. Doubtless it was some pestilential disease. I have discoursed with some Indians, that were then youths, who say that their bodies were exceedingly yellow, before and after they died, describing it by a yellow garment they show- ed me."
Gookin says that he visited the Pawtucket Indians in company with Elliott, on the fifth of May, 1764, and that Elliott delivered a sermon to them that evening, from the 22d chapter of Mathew, from the 1st to the 14th verse. The meeting was held in Wanalancet's
SKETCH OF LOWELL.
wigwam, near the Pawtucket Falls. By the influence of Elliott, a certain form of Courts was establised a- mong the Indians, at the sessions of which an English magistrate presided. The records of our early history show that the first court in Middlesex county was held near the junction of the Merrimack and Concord riv- ers, on the land through wich the Boot canal now {as- ses.
In 1726, Wamesit, as the Indian tract was called was annexed to the town of Chelmsford.
Tradition says that the house erected by the Indians for public worship, was built of logs and located on the high ground at the head of Appleton street.
As the English population increased here, the Indians decreased, till their number became very small, when they sold out their remaining lands, and removed lo the north. Their last abiding place here, we are in- formed, was on Fort Hill, around which, portions of a trench dug by them are still visible.
THE TOWN OF LOWELL, as incorporated by an act of the Legislature, passed on the first day of March 1826, contained four square miles, and was formerly the northeastern section of the town of Chellisford .--- The Legislature in 1834, annexed Belvidere Village, the westerly corner of Tewksbury, to Lowell. This annexation extends the territory of Lowell to nearly five square miles.
The population of Lowell in 1820 was about 2000 ; in 1828, 3532 ; in 1830, 6477 ; in 1832, 10,254 ; in 1833, 12,363. The present population doubtless exceeds 18,000.

SKETCH OF LOWELL.
The first efforts to promote mannfactures in this place, were made in 1813. In consequence of the re- strictions that were laid on commerce, and of the war with Great Britain, the attention of many enterprising men was directed to domestic manufactures. Capt. Phineas Whiting and Capt. Josiah Fletcher, having se- lected an eligible site on Concord river, at the Wame- ait Falls, about a hundred rods from the Merrimack, erected at the expense of about $3000, a large wood- en building for a cotton manufactory. In 1818, they sold their buildings and their right to the water power, to Mr Thomas Hurd. Mr Hurd afterwards fitted up the wooden factory and erected a large brick one, and several dwelling houses, and improved the same for fabricating woollen goods. The wooden factory was destroyed by fire on the 30th of June, 1826, but was rebuilt immediately after. Mr Hurd continued the business till the great pressure in 1828, when he was compelled to assign his property for the benefit of his creditors, and which was afterwards purchased by the Middlesex company.
About the year 1820, Messrs. Patrick T. Jackson, Nathan Appleton, and Kirk Boott, of Boston entered into a design to form a company for the purpose of manufacturing cotton goods, particularly calicoes .- They accordingly commenced an enquiry for a suita- ble water privilege. A large numder of privileges were examined, and for various reasons, rejected. At length Mr Paul Moody, then connected with the man- afacturing establishments at Walthan, while on a visit to his friends in Amesbury, met with Mr Worthen, a
SKETCH OF LOWELL.
gentleman of taste, views and congnial to his own, to whom he mentioned that an extensive water privilege was wanted by the above named gentlemen. To whom Mr Worthen replied, "why do they not purchase the land around the Pawtucket Falls, in Chelmsford ? They can put up as many works as the please there, and never want for water." This conversation resulted in a visit of these gentlemen to this place, and .from ob- servation they were both satisfied that the privilege was exactly what was wanted. The Pawtucket canal was immediately purchased by Messrs Jackson, Apple . ton and Boott. This canal was projected about the year 1790, and the proprietors were incorporated in 1792, by the name of " The Proprietors of the Locks and Canals on Merrimack river." It was opened for the purpose of facilitating the transportation of wood and lumber from the interior to Newburyport. It is about one mile and a half in length, had four setts of locks, and was built at an expense of $50,000. Its di- rection is nearly east, and it enters Concord river just above its junction with the Merrimak, where the wa- ter is thirty-two feet lower than at the head of the Pawtucked Falls.
It is worthy of remark, that a few years before the purchase was made by Messrs Appleton, Jackson and Boott, an engineer was sent to examine this place, by a number of gentlemen in Boston, who made a report that there was no water privilege here.
The company made the first purchase of real -estate on the 2d of November 1821. X They began their work about the 1st of April 1822. On the 10th of July
SKETCH OF LOWELL.
they began to dig the canal broader and deeper, and let the water into it about the 1st of September. 1823. Five hundred men were constantly employed in dig- ging and blasting. The gunpowder used in blasting, amounted to $6,000, at one shilling per pound. The whole expense of digging the canal was about $120, 000. It is now sixty feet wide, has three setts of lucks and the water in it is eight feet deep, and is calculated to supply about fifty milis. In digging this canal, ledges were found considerably below the old canal, which bore evident traces of its having once been the bed of the river. Many places were found worn into the ledge, as there usually are in falls, by stones kept constantly in motion by the water; some of these cav- ities were one foot or more in diameter and two feet deep.
The company was first incorparated by the name of the " Merrimack Manufacturing Company." In 1825, a new company was formed, called the " Proprietors of Locks and Canals on Merrimack river," to whom the Merrimack Manufacturing Company sold all the water privi ege and all their real estate, together with the Machine -hop and its appurtenances, reserving wa- ier power sufficient for five factories and the Print works, and also the buildings occupied for boarding houses, and the land on which they are situated.
