HISTORY OF MIDDLESEX COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS.

diately after, a meeting-house was built on Highland Avenue, on land presented to the society, by Jacob Mudge and Ezra Sleeper, of Boston, and dedicated September 3, 1845.

Mr. Hodges is thought by the writer to have been a native of Salem, and graduated at Harvard in 1815. Before preaching in Somerville he was at one time settled in Bridgewater, but at the time of his ser- vice in Somerville was unsettled and a resident of Cambridge. Dr. Richard M. Hodges, the successful and distinguished physician of Boston, is his son.

The following persons took an active part in the formation of this society: Henry Adama, Sanford Adams, Hiram Allen, Charles Bennett, Mary Bonner, William Bonner, Emily Bonner, Levi Bolles, Sam- uel C. Bradshaw, Jr., George O. Brastow, Edward Cullen, Fitch Cullen, John S. Edgerly, Charles Forster, William B. Graves, Guy C. Hawkins, James Hilt, Jr., Mary B. Homer, Mrs. Jordan, Charles Miller, Abigail Prentiss, Mary Runey, John Runey, Stephen B. Sewall, A. C. Spring, O. N. Town, Nathan Tafts, Timothy Tafts, Columbus Tyler and Robert Vinal.

The successor of Mr. Hodges, or rather the first settled minister in this society, was Rev. John Turner Sargent, of Boston, who was installed February 8, 1846, and resigned March 4, 1848. Mr. Sargent was also a Harvard graduate and a member of the class of 1827. He was a member of the family in Boston bearing that name, of which Col. Henry Sargent, an artist of note and a member of the Academy of Arts and Sciences, and Lucius Manlius Sargent, the author of " Dealings with the Dead by a Sexton of the Old School," were well-known members. He was a man of thorough education, scholarly habits and refined tastes, and could not fail to cleanse and purify the moral atmosphere of any community in which his lot might be cast.

Rev. Augustus R. Pope followed Mr. Sargent and continued in the pastorate nntil his death, May 24, 1858. Mr. Pope was a native of Boston and graduated at Harvard in 1839, and from the Cambridge Divinity School in 1842. Before his settlement at Somerville he had been settled over the First Church of Kings- ton, and both in Cambridge and Kingston the writer, who knew him well during the latter part of his life, had opportunity of seeing the energy and devotion with which he carried on every work he was entrust- ed to perform. In Somerville his boundless activity could not find full play within the narrow limits of his church, and various enterprises and interests, among which were those of an educational character, received and profited by his earnest labors.

Rev. Charles Lowe succeeded Mr. Pope, and was installed May 8, 1859. Mr. Lowe graduated at Har- vard in 1847, and from the Cambridge Divinity School in 1851. Ile remained with the society until ill health compelled him to resign on the 18th of June, 1865. He continued, however, to reside in Somer-

ville until his death, in June, 1874, and though, serv - ing as the secretary of the American Unitarian As- sociation, to be of service as trustee of the Public Library and in other capacities to the community in which he lived.

Rev. Henry Hervey Barber succeeded Mr. Lowe and was installed December 2, 1866. Mr. Barber had previously been settled five years in Harvard. Rev. J. S. Thompson succeeded Mr. Barber, but at the present time, October, 1890, the society is without a pastor.

The first meeting-house of this society, built of wood, was burned July 22, 1852, and the second, built of brick, which was dedicated April 28, 1854, was also burned October 8, 1867. The present brick church erected on the same site was dedicated January 31, 1869.

The Perkins Street Baptist Society was organized May 4, 1845, and held its meetings in a building on the Neck and was called the Neck Village Baptist Society. In the summer of 1853 the building was removed to Perkins Street in Somerville and enlarged, and on the 22d of February, 1854, by an act of the Legislature the present name of the society was assumed. On the Sth of January, 1866, the meeting-house of this society was burned, and on the 26th of June, 1867, its present church edifice was dedicated. Previous to 1845 the easterly part of Somerville had few inhabi- tants, and the first meeting house of the society was built at the corner of Main and Haverhill Streets in Charlestown at a cost of $6124.98, and dedicated June, 1845. The new edifice, built in 1866, cost $25,000. The first pastor of this society was Rev. William Stow, who was ordained June 25, 1845, and remained in service until 1850. He was succeeded by Rev. C. H. Topliff, who was ordained September 30th in that year, and Rev. N. M. Williams followed Mr. Topliff in 1852. Other pastorates followed, but at the present time the society has no pastor.

The First Orthodox Congregational Society was organized at a meeting held at the house of Ebenezer Davis, September 15, 1853. Oliver Dickson was chosen moderator, S. N. Watson, clerk, and Isaac S. Gross, treasurer. The Prudential Committee chosen were : Ebenezer Davis, Joseph Lovett, Temple Paul, G. S. Wheelwright and John R. Poor. On the 28th of June, 1854, a committee was chosen to seleet a lot of land and procure plans for a church edifice. The corner-stone of the church was laid October 10, 1854, and the house on Franklin Street was dedicated July 12, 1855. On the 4th of May, 1855, Ebenezer Davis, Oliver Dickson and Joseph Lovett were chosen dea- cons ; N. J. Knight, Joshua H. Davis, James L. Tyler and O. H. Granville, examining committee; Joseph Lovett, treasurer; and Moses H. Sargent, clerk. On the 30th of November, 1855, it was voted to extend a call to the Rev. Benjamin Judkins, Jr., and he was installed January 3, 1856. Mr. Judkins closed his pastorate June 2, 1858, and after a supply of the pul-

pit by Rev. David Temple Packard, he was invited to become pastor, and was installed September 21, 1860. Mr. Packard resigned April 1, 1866, and preached his farewell sermon on the 23d of September.

Ou the 16th of March, 1867, the meeting-house of the society was burned, and on the 27th of June, 1867, Rev. L. R. Eastman, Jr., was installed. The corner- stone of a new house of worship was laid August 27, 1867, and the house was dedicated September 30, 1868. Mr. Eastman resigned April 29, 1871, and was followed by Rev. Wm. S. Hubbell, of West Roxbury, who was installed February 1, 1872. Mr. Hubbell resigned November 5, 1881, and his successor, Rev. Wm. E. Merriman, was installed April 19, 1882. The present pastor of the society is Rev. James II. Ross.

In 1850 a Fire Department was established by an act of the Legislature passed on the 2d of April of that year, and the equipment for extinguishing fires has grown from the single tub-engine located within the territory at the time of the incorporation of the town, to an apparatus surpassed by no com- munity in the State of equal size and population. The Fire Department now consists of James N. Ilop- kins, chief engineer, and Nathaniel C. Barker, assist- ant, with the following apparatus and meu : Steamer, Somerville, No. 1, located on Highland Avenue, with H. A. Byrnes, engineer, W. A. Burbank, fireman, L. D. Bixby, clerk, Irving C.

foreman, and a fire alarm with forty-six stations. Besides the above the Department has two fire extinguishers and about eight thousand feet of hose. The sum expended for the current expenses of the Department during the year 1889 was $32,696.65.

In 1853, by an act of the Legislature passed Febru- ary 23d in that year, the Charlestown Gas Company was allowed to extend its pipes into Somerville, and on the 11th of April in the same year the Cambridge Gas Co. was allowed the same privilege; but on the 13th of April, 1854, Augustus R. Pope, James M. Shute and others were incorporated under the name of the Somerville Gas Company. In 1851 the first directory of Somerville was published, containing the names of five hundred and sixty-one males. It was published by Edward Tufts, of Somerville and is a small duodecimo pamphlet of thirty-two pages. At that time the population of the town, which in 1842 was 1013, and in 1843 had increased to 1445, had still further increased to 3540. The names of the justices of the peace contained in the Directory were Henry Adams, Alfred Allen, George O. Brastow, Luther V. Bell, Ebenezer F. Cutter, John F. Hall, Jonas H. Kendall, John C. Magoun, Samuel Poor, Edward L. Stevens and Columbus Tyler.

On the 29th of April, 1854, the Middlesex Railroad Company was incorporated and constructed, in 1855, a street railway to Boston, from the eastern boundary of the town through Washington Street. In May, 1851, the Medford and Charlestown Railroad Com- pany was chartered, and on the 29th of May, 1857, George O. Brastow, Henry A. Snow and Isaac F. Shepard and others were incorporated as the Somer- ville Horse Railroad Company, one of these occupy- ing Main Street and Broadway and the other Wash- ington, Milk and Elm Streets. The Somerville Horse Railroad Company was authorized by its charter to receive the rights, powers, privileges and franchises ot the Middlesex Railroad Company, so far as the same relate to proceedings within the limits of Som- erville. At the present time all the various lines of street railway iu the town are owned and managed by the West End Street Railway Company, whose centre of operation is in Boston, which was incorpo- rated in 1887.

In 1880 the population of the town had increased to 8025, and its valuation, which had increased from $988,513 in 1842 to $2,102,631 in 1850, had further increased to $6,033,053. The number of houses was at this date 1282, the number of polls 1751, and the town debt was $90,924.

The first militia company in Somerville was the Somerville Light Infantry, organized in October, 1853. In May, 1854, the company was enrolled as Company B, Fourth Regiment, Third Brigade, Sec- ond Division ; but the regiment was afterwards num- bered the Fifth, instead of the Fourth. The first captain was George O. Brastow, who was succeeded, June 29, 1854, by Francis Tufts, who served until April, 1859. Captain Brastow was then re-elected, and served until the autumn of 1861. Captain B. F. Parker sncceeded Captain Brastow, and still later it was commanded by Captain W. E. Robinson, Captain J. N. Coffin, Captain G. W. Daniels, Captain Charles F. King, Captain R. Kramer and Lieutenant R. T. Blackwell, and was disbanded July 6, 1876.

Coming now to the period of the late war, the ac- tivity and patriotic spirit which characterized the people of the whole Commonwealth were displayed in Somerville. Before the blow was struck, the Som- erville Light Infantry, in anticipation of trouble on the part of the government of the State, had been, like other militia companies in the Commonwealth, notified of a possible call for men and of the necessity

of retaining only such men in their ranks as would be willing to respond at a moment's notice. When, therefore, on the 15th of April, 1861, dispatches were received announcing the surrender of Fort Sumter and the issue of a proclamation by the President of the United States, calling for seventy-five thousand men for three months' service, Somerville was fully prepared to perform her share in the emergency. Further dispatches announced that Governor Andrew had issued orders to the commanders of the Third, Fourth, Sixth and Eighth Regiments of Massachu- setts Militia to report, with their commands, on Bos- ton Common the following day. A little later the Fifth Regiment, under the command of Colonel Law- rence, of Medford, was called for, and the Somerville company quickly responded. On the 17th of April a meeting of the citizens was held for the purpose of rendering such aid to the company and to the fami- lies of its members as might, under the circum- stances, become necessary. Henry A. Jones was chosen chairman, and Aaron Sargent secretary. A committee of five, consisting of B. F. Adams, James M. Shute, Columbus Tyler, Charles H. Guild and Charles S. Lincoln, was chosen to prepare a plan, and subsequently at the same meeting the following resolution was reported and adopted :

" Resolved, that in the opinion of this meeting the town should take measures to provide for such fami- lies of members of the Somerville Light Infantry as may need aid during the absence of that company in defense of the National Government and of the rights and liberties of mankind."

Remarks were made by James M. Shute, Columbus Tyler, E. H. Wakefield, M. H. Sargent, Ebenezer Davis, Asa Fisk, John R. Poor, C. C. Walden and others. Subscriptions were at once raised, amounting to $4308.50, and of this amount the sum of $700 was presented to Captain Brastow, who had entered the hall with his company.

It was voted that the remainder of the amount sub- scribed should be deposited in the Lechmere Savings Bank, subject to the drafts of the Board of Select- men. On Saturday, the 20th of April, the company gathered about the flagstaff in Union Square, where the flag was saluted and Rev. Mr. Fairbanks made a fervent prayer. A procession was then formed under the direction of John K. Hall as chief marshal, and marched to the Congregational Church, in Franklin Street, where each member was presented with a Tes- tament by Moses H. Sargent, each of which bore the following inscription : " And behold I am with thee and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest and will bring thee again into this land, for I will not leave thee until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of."-Gen. 28:15. The procession then es- corted the company to Faneuil Hall, in Boston, where it was quartered until the next morning. On Sunday, the 21st, it went to New York by the Fall River route, reaching that city in the evening. At New York the

regiment embarked on steamers for Annapolis, and reached Washington on the morning of Saturday, April 27th. It was quartered in the United States Treasury Building, performing guard duty during four weeks; and then encamped for one week in Camp Andrew, on the Virginia bank of the Potomac, about four miles from Washington, On Monday, June 2d, the regiment encamped in Camp Massachusetts, about one mile southwest of Alexandria, where it remained until Tuesday, July 16th. The regiment was engaged in the battle of Bull Run, in which Frank E. Hana- ford, a member of Company B, was killed. On Sun- day, the 28th of July, the regiment left Washington ; and arriving home, the Somerville company was re- ceived by the Second Battalion of Infantry, and es- corted by citizens, under a salute of one hundred guns, to Prospect Hill, where, gathered round the flag- staff, they were addressed by Rev. Mr. Fairbanks and N. B. Proctor and an ode of welcome was sung. Cap- tain Morton responded to the addresses of welcome, and received also, with his men, the more private congratulations of his neighbors and friends. W. Francis Morris, a member of the company, was left in the hospital, in Washington, sick, and died on the 31st of July.

At a legal meeting of the town, held on the 29th of April, 1861, it was voted to instruct the selectmen to provide for the families of volunteers, and to author- ize the town treasurer to borrow a sum not exceeding $5000 for the purpose. On the 28th of April it was voted to borrow $6000 for the purpose of aiding fam- ilies. In June, 1862, the President called for three hundred thousand men, and of this number the quota of Somerville was ninety-two. On the 19th of July the town voted to raise a company to fill the quota and to pay a bounty to each volunteer of one hundred dollars. For this purpose it was voted to borrow twelve thousand dollars. A committee of sixty, with the selectmen added, was chosen as a rallying com- mittee. On the 27th of August, 1862, the town voted to pay a bounty of one hundred dollars to other volun- teers, and on the 24th of September to pay an addi- tional bounty of seventy-five dollars to members of the Somerville Light Infantry.

On the 27th of April, 1863, it was voted to borrow ten thousand dollars for aid to soldiers' families, and on the 10th of December, 1863, other appropriations were made for the purpose of enlisting volunteers. In 1862 the Somerville Guard, raised to fill the quota called for in June of that year, was recruited to the full number of one hundred and one men, and en- camped on the 12th of August on Prospect Hill, when it was mustered in for three years, and remained until the 3d of September, when it encamped at Box- ford. It was attached as Company E to the Thirty- ninth Regiment, and on the 6th of September took the cars for Washington. After a short encampment at Arlington Heights, it went into quarters at Pooles- ville, Maryland, where it passed the winter.

HISTORY OF MIDDLESEX COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS.

In April, 1863, the regiment removed to Washing- ton, and on the 9th of July joined the Army of the Potomac, with which it remained until the close of the war. The casualties of the Somerville Guard, during its service, were as follows: F. J. Oliver, Washington Lovett, Joseph W. Wbitmore, Henry E. Howe and Richard J. Hyde died in rebel prisons; William D. Palmer, Samuel O. Felker, Robert Pow- ers, J. H. Roberts, William M. Harburn, Eugene B. Hadly, Willard C. Kinsly and John Moran were killed. Besides these, Frederick A. Glines, James M. Allen, Charles G. Jones, David Gorham, John E. Horton, George H. Hatch and David Kendrick fell victims to disease.

It is unnecessary to recount all the various votes of the town concerning the enlistment of men and appro- priations of money for bounties and aid to families. It is sufficient on this point to say that the whole amount of money appropriated by the town for war purposes, exclusive of State aid, was $133,039.41, and that the amount contributed by citizens was $65,823.38.

It is stated by Dr. Booth, in his sketch of Somer- ville, already referred to, that "Somerville furnished forty commissioned officers and one thousand and eighty-five men for the war in all branches of the ser- vice, which was a surplus of one hundred and forty- seven ahove the number required. Ninety-eight were killed or died of disease incident to the hardships of war, and two hundred and fifty were wounded. A marble monument was erected in the cemetery in 1863 to the memory of the dead, and was paid for by the money raised at the citizens' meeting, held April 18, 1861, for the purpose of aiding the Somerville Light Infantry, previous to its departure for a three months' service. It was the first soldiers' monument erected in Massachusetts."

The writer finds no roll of soldiers in the office of the clerk of Somerville, and has therefore been obliged to rely on the Massachusetts record published by the adjutant-general of the State for such a list as he is able to furnish In this record be finds only four hundred and fifty-one names entered as belong- ing to Somerville, and their names will be found in the list included in this sketch. To be added to this list are, of course, the names of three or four hun- dred who entered the naval service to the credit of Somerville which the writer has not the data at hand to include in the list. To be further added are the soldiers credited generally to Massachusetts, of whom Somerville had its share placed to its credit. The writer trusts that it may be properly within his prov- ince to suggest to the authorities of the city that early steps be taken to secure from the archives in Boston and Somerville and other available sources a complete list of all soldiers and sailors entering the service either credited to or belonging to the town.
