Plymouth County Agricultural Society .- The Plymouth County Agricultural Society, whose grounds and hall are located in Bridgewater, was organized in 1819, with the following officers : President, Hon. Daniel Howard, of West Bridgewater; Vice-Presi- dents, Hon. Wilks Wood, of Middleboro', Rev. Mor- rill Allen, of Pembroke; Trustees, Abiel Washburn, Nahum Mitchell, Charles Turner, Benjamin Barker, Obediah Lyon, James Thateher, Elisha Ruggles, Sam- uel Frazier, John Thomas, Benjamin Fearing, Wil- liam Bourne, Phineas Hammond ; Recording Secre- tary, Bartholomew Brown; Treasurer, William Davis ; Sub-Treasurers, Zachariah Eddy and Nathaniel Gur- ney. The society was duly incorporated June 11, 1819.

This society has had a prosperous history as one of the acknowledged and valued ageneies in the pro- motion of the cause of agriculture in the Old Col- ony. It located its permanent exhibitions in Bridge- water in 1824, where they have been held until the present time. The present beautiful site for the ex- hibition was purchased in 1855, and the hall was erected in 1856. Joseph Chamberlain, Amasa How- ard, George W. Wood, and Spencer Leonard, Jr.,

were the building committec. Benjamin Hobart hav- ing served for two years as president with zeal in the promotion of the enterprise, was succeeded by Charles G. Davis, who continued his service in that capacity for fifteen years or more with great acceptance.

The park and exhibition hall, with other buildings and appurtenances, extended and enlarged from time to time to meet the growing needs of the society, have involved the expenditure of fully sixty-five thousand dollars. Hon. B. W. Harris succeeded Mr. Davis as president, and gave to the society his earnest support and encouragement. John Lane, Esq., of East Bridge- water, succeeded Mr. Harris as president of the society, entering upon his duties with enthusiasm that has greatly aided in the improvements that have been made for the past three years. The citizens of Bridgewater have always taken an honest pride in the society, which has had their generous patronage during its entire ex- istence. The society has had the support of the best men in the Old Colony for two generations, and has a history that is pleasant to review as we trace the sub- stantial progress of our varied interests during the past half-century. Lafayette Keith, Esq., has held the office of secretary of the society since 1863, conduct- ing the duties with rare fidelity and discretion. The grounds of the society are delightfully located on the margin of Town River, and embrace an area of about sixty acres, pleasantly studded with shade-trees. The hall is one of the finest of its class in New England.

State Work-House. - The Bridgewater State Work-House, which was established in 1853, has been one of the prominent institutions in connection with our system of charities for thirty years. Capt. Levi L. Goodspeed was the first superintendent, and Dr. Abram T. Lowe, Nahum Stetson, and Dr. Bradford L. Wales, were the inspectors. It has been an asylum for the poor who were without a settlement, and for the past seventeen years has also been a penal institu- tion. In the early years of its existence the inmates numbered from six hundred to a thousand. Its his- tory has been highly creditable to the management, and it has received frequent commendation from the boards of State charities. Capt. Goodspeed gave the best years of his life to the charge of the institution, during which time the production of the farm was in- creased from ten tons of hay to one hundred tons annually.

Upon the resignation of Capt. Goodspeed, in 1870, Capt. Nahum Leonard was appointed to the office of superintendent, continuing in that position until July 1, 1883, when he resigned. Capt. Leonard's admin- istration was marked with rare discretion, and a most kind, humane consideration of the needs of the uil-

fortunate class committed to his charge. Under his government the farm was greatly improved, and sixty acres of land was reclaimed, and the hay crop in- creased to nearly two hundred tons. The entire farm embraces two hundred and twenty acres. His resig- nation was received, and accepted with much reluc- tance on the part of the trustees. Capt. Leonard was succeeded by Mr. Hollis M. Blackstone, July 5, 1883. -

The destruction of the work-house by fire on Satur- day, July 7, 1883, was a surprise to the new superin- tendent, who was just entering upon his duties. The fire was of incendiary origin, and the inmate who confessed as its author was sentenced to twenty years in the State prison. The building consumed was a massive wooden structure, three stories in height, with a fourth story in the centre section, which was the chapel. The de- struction of the building was in the forenoon, when the inmates were generally out at work, and at a sea- son of the year when the numbers were at the lowest point. Fortunately no loss of life ensued, and some valuable property was saved, including the books and records of the institution. Steam fire-engines from Taunton and Brockton were called, and promptly re- sponded in season to save the large barns and other out-buildings. The building destroyed was built by Ford & Miller, of Fall River, at a cost of eighty thousand dollars, and the total loss, including furni- ture, steam-heating apparatus, clothing, etc., was about one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars.

The property returned after the fire as an appraisal, including two hundred and twenty acres of land, two · barns, sheds, pump-houses, stock, tools, carriages, etc., was $61,405.90. The board of trustees promptly proceeded to secure an appropriation from the Legis- lature of sixty thousand dollars to rebuild in part the institution, the inmates in the mean time having been transferred to Westboro' Reform School.

This appropriation was not deemed sufficient to more than furnish shelter for those who were in the institution at the time of the fire and for furnish- ings for the same, but was accepted as sufficient to begin the work. Five brick buildings of plain, sub- stantial style were erected, and before the end of the year one building was ready for occupancy. Subse- quently thirty-five thousand dollars was appropriated for finishing the buildings, and in May, 1884, an ad- ditional appropriation of fifty thousand dollars was made to erect a prison and dormitory, making the entire appropriation one hundred and thirty-five thou- sand dollars. The buildings which have been eom- menced, and are now well advanced, consist of super- intendent's house, hospital building, three dormitory buildings, kitchen, and a story added to a building

partially destroyed. The prison and dormitory to be erected are one hundred and eighty feet by forty feet ; a water tower and office are also to be built. These buildings are two stories, with basement, granite underpinning. and freestone trimmings. The buildings will accommodate four or five hundred. This institution has held an important place in the system of charities of the commonwealth, and now enters upon a new era in its history.

June. 1884, the trustees were Joshua E. Crane, J. White Belcher, Weaver Osborn, Catharine P. Loth- rop, Mary E. Crafts.

Bridgewater Savings-Bank .- The Bridgewater Savings-Bank was incorporated March 19, 1872; was organized with Mr. Joseph A. Hyde as presi- dent, Lafayette Keith clerk, and Samuel P. Gates treasurer.

Mr. Hyde retained the office of president until his death, when Hon. Lloyd Parsons was his successor, serving with acceptance and fidelity until his decease, in 1882.

The present officers are as follows : President, Spencer Leonard; Vice-Presidents, Nahum Leonard, Lewis G. Lowe ; Treasurer, Samuel P. Gates ; Clerk, Lafayette Keith ; Trustees, Joshua E. Crane, Lafay- ette Keith, J. H. Fairbanks, James C. Leach, Hosea Kingman, S. P. Gates, Isaac Damon, L. G. Lowe, Charles K. Pratt, Nahum Leonard, Spencer Leonard, Edward A. Hewett, George M. Hooper.

The institution has had a good standing as a safe repository of money and has won the confidence of depositors, who are largely the people of the town.

A large number of families emigrated from Bridge- water in the latter part of the last century and early in the present century, settling in Maine, Vermont, and Western Massachusetts, and quite a number of families moved to New York State and to Ohio when

it was a frontier State. Several Bridgewater families were pioneer settlers at Marietta, Ohio.

The following is an enumeration of the polls and estate of the old town of Bridgewater for the year 1773 by precinets, which embraced the three towns and Broekton :

In the West Precinct, number of polls ...... 191 valuation of estates .. 12,114 7 0

Total number of polls 916

Total valuation ..

Thus it appears that the assessor's valuation of Bridgewater, with Titicut, was but $66,365. It was in poverty that the fathers engaged in the struggle of the Revolution. It is possible that the above figures were based upon a slightly reduced valuation, but they are from the original sheet where the tax was computed.

Sprague's Hill .- Sprague's Hill is well known as the most commanding eminence in this quarter of the county, and upon its southern slope some of the early settlers made for themselves happy homes. Among these were the Aldens, the descendants of John, of the " Mayflower." From this picturesque elevation there is a commanding view of the river that creeps through the valley and the village with its half-dozen churches, a short mile distant; also the handsome grounds of the Plymouth County Agricultural So- eiety. There have been many changes since these early settlements were made, and time, and the in- evitable spirit of colonization, have scattered these of Pilgrim name and many of the old landmarks. There are two of the ancient Alden houses still remaining, though none of that name now inhabit them. The last of the Alden houses that was demolished was that of Capt. Joseph Alden, son of Seth, who was of a family of five sons and four daughters, two of the sons being graduates of Brown University, viz., Cy- rus, who was a lawyer at Fall River, and Seth, a min- ister in Marlboro', both long since deceased. This hill is supposed to have taken its name from Capt. Benjamin Sprague, who lived in this locality, and died of smallpox in 1778, aged forty-two years.

The pine grove east of the brick-yard, on an at- tractive eminence upon the farm of Mitchell Hooper, Esq., was set out by Mr. Hooper in 1839 and 1842, and covers what was then a barren sand-hill.

Nippenicket Pond .- The beautiful sheet of water lying in the southwesterly portion of the town is

s. d.

808

HISTORY OF PLYMOUTH COUNTY.

called Nippenicket Pond. There are few more de- lightful and romantic little lakes in this quarter of the State. Around its borders was a favorite resort for the dusky Indian hunter, and its waters were in early times well stocked with fish. The sportsmen still find it good shooting (with decoys) around its woody slopes, and boating upon its quiet waters has for years beguiled many an idle hour. This pond is about a mile and a half in length and of irregular shape, averaging half that distance in width. Caleb F. Leonard, a prominent citizen fifty years ago, lived in this neighborhood, and the late George Bassett had a pleasant mansion near by. Mr. A. W. Bassett is the only representative of a prominent and numerous family that once resided in this part of the town, that remains in contentment and independence upon his native manor.

" Carver's Pond," near the centre of the town, is a favorite resort for the young people, and its woody borders grace a most attractive landscape. The out- let of this pond afforded a water-power for the first cotton-gin manufactory, erected by Mr. E. Carver in 1817.

Bridgewater Cemetery .- The citizens of this town, from its earliest settlement, have shown a com- mendable respect for the graves and memory of the great "silent majority." One of the earliest bequests of one of its prominent men was the ancient burial- ground near the church, and within its sacred inclosure four generations found their last resting-place. In 1842 it became necessary to provide enlarged accom- modations for burials, and a beautiful site west of the village was selected for a cemetery. The association, which was duly organized and incorporated, purchased the land of Dion Bryant, Esq., and others, comprising about ten acres (subsequently enlarging it), which from its slight elevation was called Mount Prospect.

The cemetery was appropriately consecrated, Oct. 26, 1842, to its sacred use, with prayer and an address by Rev. Ebenezer Gay, of Bridgewater. The following hymn, written for the occasion by Mrs. Charlotte Keith, was sung on that occasion :

" We meet with holy zoal inspired, With love and chanted lay We consecrate this verdant glade To loved ones passed away.

" We come, with hallow'd memories And ehastened hearts we bring An offering of devotion here To our Almighty King.

" Wo meet in youth and health, and hope Sits lightly on our brow,

And visions bright and blooming flowers Bedeck our pathway now,-

" And though we bask in sunny smiles, May we this precept bless : Religion never was designed To make eur pleasures less.

" We meet in manhood's riper years, When sober thoughts draw near :

With saddened hearts we garner up Our pure affeetions here.

" What though a change come o'er our dreams To blight our early love, We seek the promises of Him, And trust to meet above.

" We meet in age,-our tottering step (Of threescore years or more) Comes, like a truthful monitor, That we are young no more.

" Yet ere our spirits pass away, To mingle with the blessed, Our souls would hold communion o'er This hallow'd place of rest.

" We part,-oh, may His wondrous love Unite our little band,

And gather up our souls to Him In yon bright spirit-land.

"There with the pure celestial throng To worship and adore, When clustering round the Holy One, We meet to part no more."

The cemetery has been graded and beautified with walks and driveways, and the forest trees that remain afford ample shade. There are many massive monu- ments, some of which are finished and designed in the highest style of art. Prominent among these are those of Mr. F. W. Luddington, Mr. James Ferguson, Mr. C. W. Hubbard, Jonathan Washburn, Nicholas Tillinghast, Nahum Stetson, E. W. Barstow, Arte- mas Hale, Dion Bryant, C. C. Gilbert, Increase Rob- inson, George Bassett, Jonathan Cushing, Jacob Per- kins, John A. Shaw, Gad Robinson, Philo Leach, Mitchell Kcith, Nathan Mitchell, Calvin Pratt, Rob- crt Perkins, J. E. Carver, Nathan Lazell. The presi- dent of the corporation is Sumner Keith (2d), George M. Hooper, clerk. The cemetery was for a quarter of a century in charge of Mr. Eli Washburn, who with untiring energy for many years gave to the ser- vice almost his entire attention, while he was fore- most in contributions and in raising funds for the erection of the fence and gateway. For the past few years many improvements have been made under the faithful superintendeuce of Mr. George F. Leonard. The delightful situation and the good judgment in the care of this place of burial is year by year render- ing it more attractive to visitors.

The Old Graveyard .- The first burying-place in Bridgewater of which, we have any knowledge is near tho Unitarian Church, and was donated to the parish

in 1719 by John Washburn. This was the only burying-place in the South Precinct for about thirty years. Lieut. John Washburn was the sexton, and dug the graves for fifty-eight years .- from 1739 to 1797. the time of his death, -keeping a record of the burials. The total number of graves dug by him during these years was seven hundred and six. It is probable that nearly two thousand burials have been provided for in this yard. But very few have been buried in this yard since 1842. The beautiful shade- trees in and about the old churchyard were planted between 1838 and 1843. Capt. Abram Washburn was active in improving and beautifying this sacred place, and in later years Williams Latham and Eli Washburn devoted much time and labor to reclaim it from overrunning brambles, and in rendering the ancient moss-covered stones legible. It was orig- inally inclosed with a common rail-fence, but in 1795 the precinct voted to build a stone wall around it. The whole parish turned out, and in a single day brought together stones sufficient to fence it, about fifty rods in length. Captain Washburn, with a little help from subscribers, rebuilt the wall, capping it with the stones as it is now to be seen, in 1844. We know of no more beautiful and striking type of the ancient English churchyard than that of the old yard of Bridgewater.

The following is upon a monument in the old graveyard near the First Congregational Church :

" Beneath are deposited the remains of Hon. Vathan Mitchell, Esq., in whom prudence and economy, benevolence and piety, were happily and conspicuously united ; whose open disposition procured him confidence and esteem in private life, while his patriotism, integrity, and strong natural abilities repeatedly advanced him by the suffrages of a virtuous people to a seat in government; who in various capacities served his town and country with fidelity and honor, and through life sustained the character of a devout, exemplary Christian, an obligiug neigh- bor, a kind husband, and tender parent. He died with small- pox, 2d Mareh, 1789, iu the 60th year of his age, heloved and lamented. His widow and children, to record their gratitude and the virtues of the deceased, have erected this monument."

Also the following are in the same yard :

" Dea. Cornelius Holmes, died Oct. 7th, 1847, aged 92 years, 10 months, and 14 days."

" John Washburn was born 1646; married rebeca Lapham 1679; died 1719, Agel 73 years. He gave the land for this burying-yard and meeting-house."

" Sacred to the memory of John Shaw, almost 60 years a faithful pastor of the second church of Christ in this town, who departed this life on the 29th of April, MDCCXCI., aged 83 years.

" O man, great aud beloved, thou shalt rest and Stand in thy lot at the end of days."

" Judith, ye daughter of Rev. John Shaw and Mrs. Sarah his wife, born Dec. ye 1st, 1740; died Aug. ye 7th, 1747.

" Upon the stage I just appeared, My tender voice a while was heard ; The buddings of my early days My parents' expectations raised ; While they with pleasure on me smiled, I fell asleep and died a child."

" Memento Mori. In memory of Capt. Seth alden, who de- parted this life Sept. ye 6th, 1784, in the 75 year of his age. "The corps in silent darkness lies : Our friend is dead, the Captain dies ; In peace he lived, in peace he died, Sleeps sweetly hy his Consort's side; In this dark cell they hoth must lie Till the archangel rends the sky, And saints ascend to Christ on high."

of Fellowship Lodge bears date June 15, 1797. The petitioners for the charter were Hector Orr, Charles Ainger, Josiah Otis, Noah Fearing, Isaac Lazell, Nathan Lazell, and Joseph Lazell.

The lodge was consecrated at the East Parish, Bridgewater, Nov. 3, 1797. A very able and inter- esting discourse was delivered by Brother Rev. Thad- deus M. Harris, of Dorchester. An oration was de- livered by R. W. Hector Orr, Master-elect. The Grand Lodges of Massachusetts and Rhode Island were present on the occasion. The lodge held its meetings in the East Parish until Aug. 12, 1799, when it was removed to the West Parish, where it re- mained until 1809, and was again removed to the East Parish, as circumstances required, until 1813, when it was removed to the South Parish, and held its meetings at Pratt's Hall. It occupied the Academy Hall, Bridgewater, in 1822, when that building was destroyed by fire, was removed to the East Parish until 1826, and then again to Bridgewater, where it remained until 1835. It was then removed to the house of Jonathan Ames, and regular meetings sus- pended. In 1845 regular meetings were resumed at West Bridgewater. Subsequently it was perma- nently located in Bridgewater, where it purchased a building, and has a beautiful and commodious hall. Its present membership is one hundred and forty in number, and the lodge is in a prosperous condition.
