BOARD OF TRADE.
02AT a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trade, on January 16, 1889, the matter of celebrating in some fitting manner the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the settlement of Haverhill was first discussed, and a committee appointed by the President, Mr. Thomas Sanders, to arrange and suggest, at the next meeting of the Board, the measures they deemed wise to adopt in regard to sach a celebration.
This committee consisted of George L. Emerson, George A. Hall, C. N. Hoyt, and the Secretary of the Board of Trade, E. G. Frothingham.

HAVERHILL. MSON. HU -LES
On the 12th of February, at the next meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trade, it was voted that the above-named gentlemen, together with President Sanders and Charles W. Morse, be appointed a permanent committee to take such action as they thought wise with regard to the celebration of the anniversary, with fall powers to appoint any sub-committees they might think fitting, and also to confer with the Gio Government in regard to the matter, which they did, soon alter.
On February 13th, at a full meeting of the Board of Trade, this nomination was confirmed, and the Secretary was also in- unded to communicate with Haverhill's port, Mr. John (. Whittier, and request a poum for the occasion of the celebration, which was to take place sometime in 1890.
The Secretary sent Mr. Whittier the following letter :
HAVERHILL, Mess., Feb. 16, 1889. MR. JOHN G. WHITTIER,
My Dear Sir : - At the last regular meeting of our Haver- hill Board of Trade, the first step was taken by the ap- pointment of a permanent committee. for the arrangements towards a proper observance of the two hundred and tif- heth anniversary of the settlement of the town of Haver- 1.11. which will occur in 1890, probably on the Fourth of July.
So important and interesting an evert could not be cel- ebrated satisfactorily to the citizens of Haverhill without . knowledge that you. she have so delightfully with, da

I am further instructed to say that while we sincerely trust it may be our honor and happiness to have you with tis as our guest upon that occasion we hope that you will find it a pleasure to yourself, as it would certainly be a very great kindness to us, to, at your leisure, prepare for our city, to be read at that time, a poem of sach length as may best suit your inclination and wishes.
lest assured, sir, we shall fully appreciate yom covid- eration of our request, and shall earnestly hope for a favor- able response.
With respect and esteem, in behalf of the Haverhill Board of Trade,
I remain your obedient servant E. G. FRoTHINGHAM. Secretary.
To which Mr. Whittier replied as follows. -
OAK KNOLL. DANVERS, F.b. 22, 1889. My Dear Friend, - I am glad the Board of Trade have moved in the matter of celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of dear old Haverhill, and I thank its milanbes for thinking of me in that connection.
I scarcely need to say that I would be happy to i. anything in my power to ane the achisation a mary.

but the time is still far off, and age and illness admonish me that I am not authorized to make any promise for future work.
I am very truly thy friend, JOHN G WHITTIER.
This letter was read at a meeting of the Board of Trade on March 13, 1889.
The Committee from the Board of Trade conferred with the City Government, as had been recommended in the Feb- quary meeting before mentioned.
Accordingly, a meeting of all those interested in cele- brating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary was called by His Honor, Mayor Richards, and came together on Monday, August 19, in the Police Court Rooms. Mayor Fred. G. Richards presided, and after he had read a list of names suggested as a committee from the City Government, George L. Emerson was called upon to make the report of the Com- mittee from the Board of Trade in regard to a celebration. This report contained suggestions relating to the date, money to be raised, invitations to be issued, entertainment to be provided, and general manner of celebrating. The report was approved, and Mr. E. B. George was chosen Secretary of the General Committee, and Mayor Richards, Chairman.

ACTION OF CITY GOVERNMENT.
A 1 T the beginning of 1890, on the coming in of a new
City Government, it had been deemed best to rearrange the various anniversary committees previously elected, as the new mayor should be chairman cx-officio, and therefore all the committees resigned, and left the matter in the hands of the City Government.
On January 31, 1890, it was voted in the City Conneil that the Mayor be instructed in the name and behalf of the City of Haverhill to petition the General Court for author- ization to raise by taxation a sum not exceeding ten thousand dollars for the purpose of celebrating during the current year the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of its settle- ment as a town, and publishing an account of the pro- ceedings of such a celebration. One of our Ry: ematives,
8
HAVERHILL, MASSACHUSETTS
Mr. J. Otis Wardwell, presented the petition to the General Comit. and it was passed by that body, and was approved by the Governor, March 19, 1890.
On February 20, 1890, the following order was passed by the City Goverment: --
" Ordered. -- 1. That a committee to consist of the Mayor, Thomas E. Burnham, and the Board of Aldermen, Messrs. George W. Wentworth, Moses HI. Dow, Frank E. Watson, Frederick A. Cheney, E.
