SALISBURY.

Selectmen, Roubin Morrill, Winthrop True and Captain Elias Pike.

In 1662, October 28th, the Rev. William Worcester died. For twenty-three years he was the one minister of the town, who, by his intelligent counsel, had guided the settlers in the better way. One of the early historians of New England writes of him as "one of the reverend, learned and holy divines, arriving from Europe to America, by whose evangeli- cal ministry the churches of New England have been illuminated." It was also decided, on the petition of the new town (Amesbury), then subject to the ecclesi- astical rule of the Salisbury Church, "that they should not content themselves with ordinary help while the Lord is pleased to continue so bright a star in their candlestick."

The successor of Mr. Worcester was Rev. John Wheel- wright, settled in 1662, who " for his maintainance while the new town should remain with us was to re- cieve three-score pounds a year, otherwise to be paid fifty pounds a year by the town of Salisbury, beside accommodation of house and land." The ministry of Mr. Wheelwright was not a very pleasant one. He came in contact with Capt. Robert Pike upon some matters of church policy, and between appeals to the parish and the State government still stronger prej- udice was excited, and his connection with the church was broken in 1678. He soon after went back to England ; returned to this country, and settled in Exeter, N. H. and left upon the records of that town evidence of his genins, not only as a scholar, and teacher but as a wise statesman. He returned to Salisbury, and was buried in the old yard on the Beach road, beside his former associate, and where to-day lie the first four ministers of the town without a stone to mark their last resting-place.

In 1668-69 there was a more earnest demand for the building of roads and the care of forest trees, and for the settlement of school-teachers. Care and provision was made for the raising of stock and the providing of public-watering places. The record shows there was " reserved convenient land for a watering-place for cattle about the Pine Hill Ridge to remain to ye said use forever."

In 1672 the selectmen were given authority to ap- point surveyors of highways and to instruct them in their duties.

In 1675 the fear of the Indians whose appearance had been noted by unfriendly acts for some months, caused the town to erect a place of security from sud- den attack. Three such places were built-one in the vicinity of Congress Street, one near the Rabbit Farm and a third in the Seabrook Road.

In 1676 Henry Brown was appointed town appraiser, Wm. Brown constable, and Thos. Rawlinson to keep " the town's flock of sheep from May until October, and to have six pence a head," to be paid as follows : "four pounds of butter for every twenty sheep and lambs and one bushel of corn for every score, and ye

remainder of ye pay in corn." Much of the trade or business of the town was by barter, and the chief article for this use in the heavier transactions was lum- ber.

In 1679, Mr. James Alling was invited to the pul- pit in the parish made vacant by the leaving of Rev. Mr. Wheelwright. One of the inducements offered for his settlement is recorded thus :- " To settle among us and marry ; if it shall please ye Lord, yt he dies while he is with us, the town doth engage and order that his wyfe shall have twenty acres of upland, or in lieu of land, three score pounds." Mr. Allyn accepted the offer, and the town fulfilled its engagements. To- day this land is known as the " Allen lot." He died in 1696.

Rev. Mr. Alling's successor was Rev. Caleb Cush- ing, and for his services the town voted him sixty pounds in good merchantable pay, ten of it in silver money, with four contributions "besides ye sixty pounds," and the use of the parsonage house, and all the lands and meadows belonging thereto, during his stay. The ministry of Mr. Cushing shows him to have been a careful guide, not only over the spiritual affairs of his parish, but he was equally interested in the temporal welfare of his flock. He became a large land-owner in the town, and the property ac- quired was held in the family for several generations, and the late Hon. Caleb Cushing shared in the divi- sion, and the Cushing estate continues upon the as- sessor's books to this day. The descendants of Min- ister Cushing were honored by their townsmen.

So far our history deals with the people of the East Parish-they in all purposes were the town. But the land about the Powow River was being settled upon and manufacturing interests were developing, which led to the creation of another parish, which was forced by church dissensions. As early as 1665 the second meeting-house in the territory of Salisbury was built, but it was not until many years later (1714) that the West Parish of Salisbury was established. To avoid a division of its territory into two different church parishes, the town, for nearly a hundred years, built and repaired its meeting-houses and its parsonages, and supported its ministers from a common assessment upon the inhabitants of the town. A full history of the church organizations of the town, and the early and later movements in connection there- with, would require a volume by itself.

The grant of timber land to William Osgood, on condition that he should build a saw-milf, to be com- pleted before May, 1652, was the first movement of the early settlers to build up an industry in the West Parish. It was stipulated that said Osgood should have liberty to make use of all the pine timber between the west side of the path leading from the house of John Bagley to Exeter, and on other growths. This grant of land comprised some three hundred acres, but he was to give to the town "one half-hundred boards and planks for every thousand sawn at the

1452

mill." Atthis mill the first planks were sawn for ship-building purposes on the Merrimac River. A ship built by Nathan Gold and one by Mr. Graeves were furnished planks at this mill. In 1689, Willie Osgood surrendered up to the town all his right in this grant of timber-land. The capacity of the mill is learned by a deposition found in the Essex County Court files, wherein Richard Currier testifies that the mill in Salisbury is in no way inferior to the mill at Amesbury, which in the spring saws about five or six thousand feet of board a week, for three months to- gether. In 1693-94 a saw mill was built by John Wadley on the Powow River, making the third mill. Benjamin Easman also petitioned for a right in Powow River between the mill bridge and the old saw- mill, now in possession of Major March, Thomas Cur- rier and Jacob Morrill, and with it " the right to im- prove four rods of land adjoining for the purpose of building a fulling-mill to full the town's cloth, before any other town, they paying as other towns." Agreed to so long as the said Easman performed the said conditions, In 1710 the town received the following petition, which is an indication that there was a grow- ing desire to further improve the water facilities of the Powow :

"The humble petition of we, the subscribers, to the town of Salisbury, assembled this 2Ist day of March, 1710: hereby showeth that whereas your petitioners have had thoughts for to set up and build Iron Works upon ye falls in ye Powon River, humbly prays ye town that they would please to grant them some small matter for ye promoting that design, which if we shall go on with ye work it may prove to great benefit to ye town. Therefore we pray ye town to grant that we may be freed from all rates that may arise on said work and to give something that may promote that work ; so hoping that you may oblige us in this thing, we remain your humble servants, John March, John Barnett, Jarvis Ring."

The petition received favorable action by the town ; the works were built, and for several years did quite a business, but they were situated on the north side of the river. From the first three saw-mills sprang up the iron-works, and following this the nail-factory. The first woolen-mill was operated in Salisbury in 1812, and the first contract for clothing the soldiers in the war was filled by this mill. At this period the town contained several tanneries. As early as 1780 liberty was given Jacob Brown to set up a hatter's shop on the highway near David Currier's barn (near where tlu lower factory boiler-house is now situated). This industry was continued there for many years, or until the burning of the hat-factory, some fifty years ago, Previous to 1793 there was located on the banks of the Powow five saw-mills, seven grist-mills, and, in succeeding years, two linseed oil-mills, a fulling-mill, card(og-mill, iron and nail-factory.

Strange as it may seem to the present generation, ship-building was also prosecuted on the banks of the

Powow River. As near as can be ascertained, the first ship-builder on the Powow was a Mr. Adams, as early as 1702. His yard was located near where Bid- dle's carriage-factory now is. In 1726 Joseph Wad- leigh, Jr., Aaron Wadleigh, John Wadleigh, Jr., and Abraham Wadleigh petitioned " for liberty to use ye town's landing-place, near ye widow Ring's house, on the spot where Mr. Adams formerly built vessels, for the purpose of building a small vessel." The Wad- Jeighs built quite a number of ships on the river. In 1727 liberty was given Jarvis Ring to set up a vessel on the river at the landing-place. In 1731 Philip Rowell and Abraham Morrill were given "liberty to set up a sloop at ye mills." Major Currier built ves- sels on the Amesbury side. The last vessel built on the Powow was in 1835, by Captain Samuel Fallons- bee, one of the old ship-builders of the Merrimac. His ship-yard was just below Boardman's soap-fac- tory. Thus for nearly one hundred years ship- building was one of the industries of the Powow. From the wharves at the Landing great quantities of lumber and staves were shipped, and the lumber trade alone employed quite a force of men. Notwithstand- ing the extent of wilderness of woods, extending from the sea-shore to the extreme limits of the town in all directions, the care with which the early settlers guarded the growth of the forest trees is accounted for on the ground that it was one of the articles of exchange in trade, aside from its nse in building ships and the quantity required to furnish warmth in winter. No person could fell a tree on any street, or about the town, or on the "green," without first receiving permission from the town, and the penalty for violation of this order subjected one to a fine of twenty shillings.

In all things pertaining to the early government of the town, its affairs were guarded with a jealous interest. Persons who had been granted lots of land in the township and had not settled thereon were notified that unless they did so before the Ist of No- vember of the year 1641, their land would be for- feited to the town. The pay of laborers was also fixed as follows : For every lot of land laid out upon the Powow and Merrimac Rivers, lot-layers were to receive one cent per acre. Laborers were ordered to be paid sixteen pence per day for work during the winter months, and the winter months were to be accounted " from the first of November to the last of the first month, and the seven other months shall be summer months ;" and for the summer months twenty pence per day for laborers; all carpenters to be paid two pence a day more than laborers, that is, eighteen pence in winter and twenty-two pence in summer. Mowers to have two pence per day more. The sale of certain articles was also regulated thus: Clap- boards five feet in length, three shillings per hun- dred; split, four shillings six pence per hundred ; butter, six pence per pound; milk, three half-pence per quart ; new milk, one pence.

1453

SALISBURY.

To carry out these provisions, a clerk of the mar- ket was appointed. At the same time, we have men- tioned the sale of its fishing rights and the price put upon the sale of fish, making provision that its own townsmen should be first served. In contracting with its early teachers in the schools, it stipulated with Thomas Bradbury that he should first give his time and attention to scholars in the town, and then, if he have time at his disposal to teach others, he may do so.

If land was granted for any specific purpose, the interests of the town was the first consideration, as il- lustrated in the answer to Abraham Morrill and Henry Saywood, who petitioned for a mill privilege near the falls on the Powow River. These were given three-score acres of upland on condition that they set up a mill of sufficient capacity to grind all the corn the town shall need.

The first record of any trouble with the Indians appears in 1643, when hostilities were threatened by the tribes along the Merrimac, and they were ordered to be disarmed by the court. Accordingly, forty armed men were sent out for that purpose, twelve of whom belonged in Salisbury.

In the early records there is evidence that the set- tlers and leading men were disposed to deal justly by the Indians, notwithstanding the many traditionary tales of violent deeds of blood.

The old Indian trail extending on the borders of the marsh from Salisbury to Hampton can be traced to-day as distinctly as when the red men traversed it two hundred years ago. The shell mounds below Ring's Island, near the Merrimac, continue to attract attention, while from adjoining farms along the river- shore large collections of arrow-heads and Indian im- plements have been found.

At a meeting of the inhabitants held 6th of First Month, 1666, Thomas Bradbury, moderator, "there was granted to Ned, an Indian, the right to set up a fish-ware in the town creek, to catch fish for the sum- mer following." In another instance it is recorded that one of the settlers was held to account for deal- ing unfairly by an Indian. It is possible that the ex- emption of this town from the raids of Indians upon its settlement, notwithstanding the fears excited by their approach oftentimes, and means of defense erected, was in a great measure due to these aets.

In the colonial records is the following :

" Josias Plaistowe, for stealing four baskets of corne from the Indians, is ordered to return them eight baskets, to be fined five pounds, and hereafter to be called by the name of Josias and not Mr., ss formerly be used to be."

Of the sixty-four grantees of land in the town, six- teen were ordered to be ealled Mr.,-a large propor- tion, for, says Hutchinson, in a list of one hundred freemen, you will not find above four or five dis- tinguished by Mr., although they were generally men of some substance. The second elass comprised the farmers, mechanics, etc., and the third class the

servants, whose time had been bought of themselves or were hired by the month or year.

In 1773 the town was visited by a violent tornado, equaling any blizzard of recent date in western lands. The Rev. Dr. Webster, the West Parish minister, in his diary, says of it :

"This tempest was preceded by heavy rain and great darkness. It first appeared on the Merrimac river and rolled up the waters upon the banks, and threatened to swallow up the affraighted inhabitants. From the river inland it covered three-quarters of a mile, and extended to the sea. The tempest continued for three minutes, and wrecked and de- stroyed one hundred buildings in the town. Yet through the great and marvelous mercy of God, who ruleth in the storm, no life was lost or bone broken ou the Salisbury side, where the most damage was done."

The action of the town during the Revolutionary period, from 1770 to the close of the war, is a record of patriotism and self-devotion to the interests of the nation. Patriots and heroes who fought at Crown Point, at Ticonderoga, at Quebec, at the fall of Louis- bourg, at Bunker Hill, and sailors who manned the yards in the old ship "Alliance," and other of our naval vessels.

March 13, 1774, the town voted that :

" Thanks be given to the respectable body of merchants in Boston and other towns, for their truly generous non-importation agreement, and for their prudent and vigorous endeavors in this critical time to save their country. That we will not ourselves drink any foreign teas and endeavor (sickness excepted) that none shall be drinked in our houses till the duties sre takeu off, and the Revinu acts are repealed."
