pupil in Wellesley College. With but one servant in the family, consisting of from eighteen to twenty-five persons, it is obvious that much labor is required, in which the children take part, and are thus taught self-reliance, industry and economy. Each of the children is allowed a small sum annually by the regulations of the American Board, and if there be any deficit, it is made up by the benevolence of others and by self-denial. Besides the members of the Home, other missionary children, from various places, become visitors during their vacations, when no other friend invites them.
HOME FOR MISSIONARIES' CHILDREN (BAPTIST) .
At the annual meeting of the Woman's Baptist Mission Society held in Boston, May, 1880, a discussion arose in regard to the establishment in this country of a Home for missionaries' children. Missionaries having children whom they bring to this country for care and education, and who have not personal friends or kindred to assume the responsibility of such a charge, are often detained from their fields of labor among the heathen, owing to the diffi- culty of making satisfactory arrangements for them. It was judged that a Home could be provided and furnished, to meet such cases, with a matron of approved character, to bestow upon the children loving care,- where they might attend the public schools, and enjoy all the benefits of living in a Christian community. The parents should be allowed to do as much for the children as their circumstances would permit, and to cherish the feeling that they had not placed them in an eleemosynary institution, or released themselves from the care and responsibility of their offspring. A matron, at once, Providentially, offered her services, approved in all respects, Mrs. Mckinley, the widow of a Baptist minister ; and two children of the Rev. S. B. Partridge, a missionary from Swatow, China, formed the beginning of this new and admirable Christian experiment. A house was hired for the purpose in New- ton Centre, May 1, 1880,- the furnished home of Rev. S. F. Smith, on Centre Street, who was expecting to be absent from the United States for a season, and found nothing more agreeable, during his absence, than such a use of his homestead,-out of which a missionary son had gone to Burmah in 1863, in which two children of the latter had found a home for five years, and where many missionaries, from Dr. Judson to the latest times, had enjoyed rest and welcome and Christian hospitality.

WEST NEWTON LYCEUM.
WEST NEWTON LYCEUM.
The West Newton Athenaeum Monday evening meetings, for lectures and discussions, are the outgrowth and continuation of certain meetings developed at the same time and by the same men who organized the Athenaeum in 1848 and '50. Joseph W. Plimp- ton, Charles T. Savage, Joseph S. Clarke, Dr. J. H. Stephenson, William P. Houghton, William B. Fowle, sen., Horace Mann, Nathan Crafts, and others, were most active in its organization. William B. Fowle, sen., was its first President, Joseph S. Clarke, D. D., was its first Secretary, C. T. Savage was its Treasurer, Nathaniel T. Allen was its first Librarian.
During the first years of its existence Rev. Mr. Clarke was mainly instrumental in inaugurating a series of public meetings held Monday evenings, immediately after the weekly delivery of books in the old Town Hall, under the " Model School " rooms, now the City Hall. A member, previously appointed, was expected to give his opinion of a certain author and his productions, followed by a discussion on the same. Soon, this course was broadened and lectures were delivered in connection with the weekly meetings. The prominent object of the founders of the Athenaeum was, from the first, to enlighten and improve the people and to sustain the Athenæum library. Year after year a subscription was obtained from the citizens for a series of lectures. The nominal price paid each lecturer was ten dollars ; but it was expected of the lecture committee to obtain as many free lectures as possible, which would add as many times ten dollars to the library fund. Charles and George Sumner, Thomas Starr King, Theodore Parker, John Pier- pont, E. P. Whipple, Rev. A. L. Stone, of Park Street church, of Boston, Thomas Hills, D. D., and others from abroad, and Rev. William Knapp, and Messrs. William B. Fowle, sen., Marshal Conant, Cyrus Pierce, Joseph S. Clarke, Dr. William A. Alcott, Eben S. Stearns, Horace Mann and others, home talent, lectured, very many of them generously making no charge for the same. Discussions were interspersed with the lectures, both of which were free to all, from the first.
The questions discussed were such as occupied the attention of the public at the time, avoiding only such as had a theological hue, which it was feared might deter many from attendance. Such ques- tions as, "The American Colonization Society," "The Fugitive
48
754
HISTORY OF NEWTON.
Slave Law," "The Under-ground Railroad," " The Higher Law," etc., were vigorously discussed, even the Fugitive Slave Law find- ing some earnest advocates. Through these discussions, the title of " The Incendiaries and Radicals of West Newton" was earned, which was then deemed of as much reproach, as now, of honor. The first of the above questions was earnestly discussed during six consecutive Monday evenings.
The late George W. Briggs, of Lasell Seminary, and Ebenezer Bradbury, were very constant in their attendance. John Ayres, George E. Allen, Henry Lambert, the talented Dr. J. H. Brown and Cyrus (Father) Pierce never hesitated to advocate the highest. morality and the sacred rights of man.
It now seems incredible that any New Englanders could be found who would vindicate the radical side of the above questions ; yet even in West Newton those were vigorously hissed, who stated their determination to aid any panting fugitive from slavery.
In 1861, the subject of " The right of Secession " was earnestly discussed, through several evenings, both the affirmative and nega- tive finding advocates.
During all these years, the meetings, with the lectures, were arranged for by the Athenaeum management. Its president was their presiding officer, its treasurer, the treasurer of these meetings.
About 1860 or '61, it was thought best, through courtesy, to unite with other citizens, not stockholders of the Athenæum, in arranging for the meetings ; but the call for the preliminary meet- ing, for the purpose of organizing for the series, was made by the officers of the Athenæum, and the meetings were held in the Eng- lish and Classical school building.
After the war broke out,-with its engrossing duties, the meetings: were discontinued for two or three winters. The people, however, demanded their revival, and through the efforts of Messrs. Van Duzee, Sheldon, Tarbox, Bond, and other later citizens, with those older who remain, they have been conducted to the present time with but slight modification, and with remarkable success, -- a positive force of great influence in educating the community on nearly all topics which have agitated the country, State, city or village.
NEWTON SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION.
The Newton Sunday School Union was organized December 18, 1838. It originated in a desire to advance by a union of effort

the cause of Sunday School instruction, and by frequent meetings for prayer, and the discussion of practical questions relating to their work, to qualify the Superintendents and teachers for success- ful labor.
The officers, originally, were a President, Vice-President, Sec- retary, Treasurer, and a Board of Directors,- one from each school. The first officers were, --
Hon. William Jackson, President. Wiley G. Eaton, Vice-President. Sanford Leach, Secretary. Elijah F. Woodward, Treasurer.
Joel Fuller, Otis Trowbridge, Ebenezer D. White, Marshall S. Rice, A. F. Burbank, Walter C. Curtis, Directors.
Six schools were at first represented in its membership. The first anniversary was held July 4, 1839, in a grove at Newton Upper Falls ; a large number were present; a procession of children, and a collation in the grove for all. Addresses by Mr. Bannister, of Auburndale ; to the scholars, by Mr. Eaton, of Newton Theo- logical Seminary ; to teachers, by Rev. Mr. Babcock, of Dedham ; to parents, by Rev. Professor Sears. The second anniversary was in a grove in Newton Centre, July 4, 1840. Between 2,000 and 3,000 persons were present, and from 1,300 to 1,500 children walked in procession. Music and a collation in the grove, and addresses by Rev. N. T. Burt, of Charlestown, and William B. Tappan, of Boston. The third anniversary was held at the First Parish meeting-house July 5, 1841, and a collation in the grove near the pond. Address by Rev. Mr. Mudge. The fourth anni- versary was at the Methodist Episcopal church, Upper Falls. Ad- dress by Rev. Dr. Sears.
At first, meetings were held monthly ; afterwards, quarterly. At each meeting, a practical question was discussed, and each school reported its condition. In 1849, a colporteur was employed, at · the expense of the Union, to labor in West Virginia, and after- wards, in Ohio, at a salary of $150 per year, from whom letters were received.
The twenty-fifth anniversary of the Union was held in Eliot church, October 16, 1863. A historical address was delivered by Marshall S. Rice, one of the original members ; other addresses by S. G. Deblois, of Boston, Rev. B. F. Bronson, of Roxbury, and Rev. A. L. Stone, of Boston.

HISTORY OF NEWTON.
The number of members who served their country during the late war was 123, of whom six were wounded, and nineteen died. In 1844, there were, in the Union, six schools with 89 teachers, 189 scholars, 2,566 volumes in libraries. In 1857, there were nine schools, with 133 teachers, 996 scholars, 4,517 volumes, $432 contributions, 173 church-members.
The increase for ten years was as follows :

After a few years, the office of Vice-President was dropped, and still later, the Board of Directors was composed of the Superin- tendents of the schools, ex officio, and no Board was elected.
The Union numbers 23 schools, with 3,246 members ; the quar- terly meetings are held alternately at the different villages, and among various denominations. A question is proposed at each meeting, to be discussed at the next. Reports are made from each school at every meeting.
MUSICAL SOCIETIES - SINGING SCHOOLS, ETC.
The first singing school in Newton,- which was designed for the whole town,- was taught by Mr. Billings, well known as the author of many popular church tunes. This school was begun about 1780, after the "New Lights," so called, came to have influence in the town, and was useful in cultivating skill and taste in sacred music.
A musical society called the St. David's Musical Society, existed in Newton in 1816. A meeting of the Society was notified in the Boston Columbian Centinel of that year, to be held at Bacon's Hotel, formerly Wiswall's (the house of the late Deacon Asa Cook), with an announcement of a rehearsal and concert at the First church, in the afternoon of the same day.
A singing school was taught in 1805 or 1806 at Newton Centre, by Mr. Jacob Richards, in a hall in the old house formerly owned by Ebenezer King, then by Deacon White, sen., and since by the late Timothy Walker.
A singing school was taught, in 1821, in the old school-house at West Newton by Mr. Stetson, of Waltham ; in 1826 at the Upper

Gould, of Boston, and in 1829, by Mr. Fenno, of Abington. This was the last school taught by teachers from out of town.
Previous to 1818 there was a Musical Society in Newton,-per- haps this was the St. David's Musical Society, - composed of singers belonging in Newton and neighboring towns, and which met from house to house among the members. This Society was led by Mr. Nathaniel Tucker, who then owned and occupied the house afterwards the residence of the late Thomas Edmands. Miss Abigail Hall, of Oak Hill, one of the members, was then regarded as one of the best soprano singers in Newton and vicin- ity. Among the male members of the Society were Mr. Nathaniel Tucker, the leader, Asa Trowbridge, William Trowbridge, Deacon E. F. Woodward, Baxter Hall, Prentice Hall. The Society was well sustained, and gave many popular concerts in Newton and the neighboring towns.
About 1840, a Society was formed in Newton under the lead of Mr. Asa R. Trowbridge, for the practice of Glees. The Society was sustained two or three years, and gave a number of public concerts. The book used by the Society was " The Boston Glee Book."
NEWTON MUSICAL ASSOCIATION .- October 29, 1861, several gen- tlemen of musical tastes and ability united to form an organiza- tion in Newton (Corner), called the Newton Musical Association, and adopted a Constitution.

THE NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY.
The Newton Natural History Society was organized in October, 1879, for the purpose of awakening an interest in the study of Natural History, with especial reference to the natural features of Newton and vicinity, and of gathering a collection of specimens illustrating the geological formation of this district, and the character of the Flora and Fauna found therein. Its officers are :
Dr. J. F. Frisbie, President. F. Jackson, Secretary. W. C. Bates, Treasurer.
Meetings are held monthly.
THE CLAFLIN GUARD.
In September, 1870, Mr. Fred. P. Barnes, a resident of New- ton, conceived the plan of obtaining signatures to a petition to the
759
NEWTON SAVINGS' BANK.
Governor of the State for permission to organize a company of State militia from among the young men of Newton. The peti- tion bore the names of more than fifty young men of Newton.
The Company was duly organized October 10, 1870, and an elec- tion of officers ordered. Isaac F. Kingsbury, now Assistant Adju- tant-General of the State, was chosen Captain, Fred. P. Barnes and G. Frank Park, first and second Lieutenants. The Company adopted the name of "Claflin Guard," in compliment to the Gov- ernor of the State, and it was assigned to duty in the First Regi- ment, and designated as Company L.
For the first three years, the Company showed great efficiency, especially in the arduous service rendered the city of Boston dur- ing two weeks, in guarding the property of its citizens after the great fire of November, 1872. An elegant American flag, the gift of the ladies of Newton, was presented to the Company, May 30, 1871, the presentation speech accompanying the gift being made by Governor Claflin.
About the year 1878, the military spirit of the members had de- clined ; the Captain and second Lieutenant resigned. In January, 1879, the interest in the Company revived, and John A. Kenrick was chosen Captain, Henry W. Downs and Frank L. Barnes, first and second Lieutenants.
NEWTON SAVINGS' BANK.
At a meeting of the Newton Temperance Society and Lyceum, March, 3, 1829, it was voted "that a Savings Institution be intro- duced into the Society, with a view to promote the industry, econ- omy and prosperity of its members," and rules of government were adopted. The original members of the corporation were John Kenrick, Asa Cook, Seth Davis, Stephen Goodhue, William Jackson, Amos Lyon, Joel Fuller, Henry Crafts, Nathaniel Fuller, Samuel Hyde, Ephraim Jackson, 2d, Marshall S. Rice. June 17, 1831, an Act of Incorporation was obtained for "The Institu- tion for Savings in the town of Newton."

IT is not known who filled the office of Town Clerk previous to 1694, probably John Ward, Noah Wiswall, or Thomas Green- wood. All the Town Clerks except the last one were also Town Treasurers. During a period of one hundred and eighty-one years, only eleven persons held the office, their terms of service averaging nearly sixteen and a half years each; or, omitting two, whose terms were only one and two years, the average term of office of the remaining nine was a little more than twenty years each.
