The people of the westerly part of the town were also organ- ized into a precinct or parish, about the time of the erection of their meeting-house, as the following record shows : -
" In answer to a petition presented by Ebenezer Sherwin & Ebenezer Kendall to the Council, June 13, 1755, it was ordered that such of ye Inhab- itants of ye Town of Dunstable and their Estates situate to ye Westward of Simon Thomson's Dwelling House to gether with their Associates who on or before ye thirteenth day of September next shall give in their Names to ye Secretary of ye Province with their Desires therefor signified in Writing Be & they are Hereby ordered In to a Precinct and vested with all ye Powers and Priveleges & subjected to all ye Duties that other Pre- cincts in this Province are by Law invested with and subjected to."
This Act received the signature of Gov. William Shirley, June 14, 1755, and the first meeting of this Second Parish, or precinct, in Dunstable, as it was for a long time called, was held at "ye meeting-house " on the 27th of October following, when Ebenezer Sherwin was chosen moderator, and John Steel, parish clerk. John Cummings, John Steel, and Joseph Fletcher were chosen as " committeemen and assessors of said parish." Joseph Danforth was chosen treasurer, and Benjamin Pike, collector. These officers were then sworn "to ye faith- ful Discharge of their Respective Trusts," and thus the Second or West Parish of Dunstable was fairly organized, and started on its eventful way.
As the custom was in those days, a few persons were held in Dunstable as slaves, and the following curious paper relat- ing to the sale of one of them is still preserved :-

The paper has this indorsement : -
"Oct. 28, New Stile, 1756. This day the Within Named Girl was Five years old."
Robert Blood lived on the place now occupied by Dexter Butterfield, and many stories are told of his peculiarities. He is said to have called an Indian doctor to prescribe for him in a case of sickness ; but fearing lest the medicine might con- tain poison, he administered it to his negro boy, who died from its effects. The place of his burial is called to this day " Negro Hill." A sheriff once came into church to arrest Mr. Blood, who, seeing his pursuer, raised his handkerchief to his nose as if it were bleeding, and quietly left the meeting. On being asked afterwards why he left the church so sud- denly, he said, " The sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them." (Job i, 6.) His wife was a noted swimmer, and frequently swam across the Merrimack River. She was, however, drowned at last, as it is said, among the lily-pads of Massapoag Pond.
At a meeting of the Second Parish, held Nov. 20, 1755, it was voted that £20 be assessed " for ye Suport of ye Gospel for ye present year"; also that a committee, consisting of Ensign Ebenezer Parkhurst, John Steel, and Joseph Fletcher, " search into ye accounts of how much Preaching we have Had in said meeting house"; and John Steel, Samuel Taylor, and Adforth Jaquith were appointed a committee to take a deed of Lieut. John Kendall and Ebenezer Butterfield "of ye land ye meeting house stands on."
At a meeting of the parish, Dec. IO, it was found that the account for constructing the church edifice was £74 4s. IId.,
92

[1757
and the committee reported that " the preaching we have had in Said Meeting house and ye Intertaining ye Ministers " amounts to 544 Is. Who these ministers were appears from various orders of the parish. At a meeting, held March 6, 1756, the sum of £4 was " ordered out to Mr. Josiah Good- hue for preaching four sabbaths"; and also to Ebenezer Kendall four shillings "for Intertaining Mr. Josiah Goodhue one week." So, again, March 25, the parish " ordered out to Ebenezer Kendall £3 os. 8d. 2grs. for money he has paid to Mr. perry for preaching " ; also to Ebenezer Sherwin, £2 4s. 9d. which "he has paid to Mr. Joseph perry for preaching "; also to Abraham Kendall £4 5s. 4d. " which he has paid to Mr. Cotton* for preaching"; also "to Mr. Timothy Minot [H. C. 1747], ye sum of Six Pounds for his Preaching six days with us in our Meeting house "; also "to Mr. Holyoak ; £9 12s. for Preaching 9 days."
Of these several candidates, who received for their Sabbath services about f1, together with their "Intertainment," Mr. Josiah Goodhue (H. C. 1755) was the favored one ; and so at a meeting of the parish, Sept. 23, 1756, it was voted to give him "a call to ye Work of ye Ministry with us in This Second Precinct of ye Town of Dunstable."
Mr. Goodhue presented his acceptance of the invitation at the meeting held March 15, 1757, under the following conditions : -
I. That you give me {120 for settlement to be paid in ye manner you voted the settlement.
2. Fifty pounds as salary yearly, as long as I stand in ye Relation of a pastor to this People.
3. Twenty-five cords of wood yearly Brought cord wood Length to my Door.
4. That if Providence should order it that you should consist of Eighty Rateable Families, then ye salary to be Sixty Pounds.

* This was the Rev. Josiah Cotton (H. C. 1722), who was called to settle over the First Church in Dunstable, N. H., Nov. 27, 1758, and the day of his ordination appointed ; but a quarrel ensuing in the parish, he fortunately did not become its minister.

CHURCH COVENANT.
1757]
The parish voted to comply with these conditions. On the twelfth day of May, 1757, a church was organized, consisting of thirty-eight members, nineteen of whom were males and nineteen females.
The covenant, virtually the same as that of the First Church at Plymouth, was probably drawn up by the Rev. Daniel Emerson, of Hollis, N. H., and was formally accepted in his presence.
A CHH COVENANT, DUNSTABLE, MAY Ye 12th, 1757.
Then ye underwritten Brethren solemly Covenanted before God, & one with another by owning this Covenant before me, & accordingly were declared a Chh of our Lord Jesus Christ, regularly incorporated pr Me Daniel Emerson.
We whose Names are underwritten do covenant with the Lord, & one with another & do Solemnly bind ourselves before the Lord & his People that we will, by the Strength of Christ, walk after the Lord In all his ways, as He hath revealed them to us in his Word.
1. We avouch the Lord Jehovah to be our God & give up ourselves with our Children after us, in their several Generations, to be his People, & that in the Sincerity & Truth of our Hearts.
2. We give up ourselves to the Lord Jesus Christ, to be ruled & guided by Him in the matter of His Worship & in our whole Conversa- tion acknowledging him not only our alone Saviour, but also our King, to rule over us, as well as our Prophet, to teach us by His Word and Spirit : accordingly we wholly disclaim our own Righteousness in Point of Justification, cleaving to Him for Righteousness, Life, Grace, & Glory.
3. We promise by the Help of Christ to walk with our Brethren & Sisters of the Chh in the Spirit of Love, watching over them & caring for them, avoiding all Jealousies, Suspissions, Backbitings, Censurings, Quarrellings, & Secret Risings of Heart against them forgiving & for- bearing, yet seasonably admonishing & restoring them with a Spirit of Meekness, who through Infirmities have been overtaken in a Fault.
4. We will not be forward in chh Meetings to show our Gifts & Parts in Speaking, nor endeavour to disgrace our Brethren by discovering their Failings, but attend an orderly Call before we Speak, doing nothing to the offence of the chh ; but in all things endeavouring our own & our Brethrens Edification.
5. We further promise to Study how we may advance the Gospel & Kingdom of Christ so as that we may gain them who are without, Setle Peace among ourselves & Seek the Peace of all the chhs not puting a Stumbling Block before any but Shunning the Appearance of Evil.
6. We promise to demean ourselves obediently in all lawful things towards those God has or shall place over us in Chh or Common Wealth.
94
HISTORY OF DUNSTABLE. 11757
7. We resolve in the same Strength to approve ourselves in our par- ticular Callings, shunning Idleness nor will we oppress any we deal with.
8. We also promise as God shall inable us to teach our Children & Servants the good Knowledge of the Lord & to fullfill all relative Duties prescribed in Gods Word that all ours may learn to fear & Serve the Lord ourselves, to this End we promise to keep up ye Worship of God in our Families that our Houses shall be Bethels wherein ye morning & Evening Sacrifice shall assend.
9. We do profess ourselves to be Congregational in our Judgments & do hereby promise mutually one unto another that we will practice on Congregational Principles which according to our understandings are most agreable to the Directions of Gods Word ; & will take the Plat- form of Discipline to be our Rule to go by in all matters of chh Discipline among us which we look on as gathered out of the Word of God & agreeing therewithall.

The 8th of June was fixed upon for the ordination of Mr. Goodhue, and it may well be supposed that the people of the West Parish were now full of life and excitement in making preparations for the great occasion. New dresses had to be purchased and made, or the old ones repaired and put into decent order ; houses had to be cleansed, larders replenished, supplies of rum obtained, -for in those days nothing, from a marriage to a funeral, could be done without it, - the tunes in the Bay Psalm Book had to be rehearsed, and the church to
95
HALF-WAY COVENANT.
1757]
be put in trim for the solemn and yet gladsome services. At a Parish meeting the day after the formation of the church, it was agreed " that ye gallary floors should be Laid Down, and ye Breast Work put up, ye Pillars and one pair of Stars & two Doors and also ye Body of Seats be Built." It was also voted at the same time to secure land for " a Burrying Place & to take a Deed of ye same." This sacred spot, on the westerly slope of Meeting-House Hill, contains head-stones bearing the names of several of the original founders of the church, and though now covered with poplar, birch, sumac, pine, and wal- nut trees, growing rankly over blueberry-bushes, sweet-fern, and golden-rod, still has associations and sermons for the reflective mind, such as the voice of the living preacher cannot bring.
Mr. Goodhue, then not two years from Harvard College, was ordained as pastor over the church on the eighth day of June, 1757. In the records of the church, which were well kept by him during his ministry, he says, "June ye 8th 1757, I was Solemly Seperated to ye Work of ye Gospel Ministry and ordained to ye Pastoral Office Over ye Chh of Christ in ye 2ª Parish of Dunstable. The Revd Joseph Emerson of Pep- perill began ye Solemn Exercises of yt Day with Prayer ; The Revd Daniel Emerson Preached ye Sermon from Luke 29th 60th Phinehas Hemenway of Townshend gave ye Charge: And the Revd Daniel Willkins of Souhegion gave The right Hand of Fellowship."
The first baptism of an infant performed by Mr. Goodhue was that of " Jonathan ye son of John & Sarah swallow "; the first marriage, that of " Oliver Farnsworth of Townshend & Jemima Haywood of Dunstable," which occurred Nov. 2, 1757. The Half-Way Covenant was then in vogue, admitting persons acknowledging the "Confession of Faith" as their belief to some of the privileges of the church, and hence the record of an admission to the church is made in accordance with the views of the member received in respect to this point. Thus the first persons who united with the church after its for- mation were Thomas Adams and Ruth, his wife, who were "admitted into full communion, July 3ª 1757," while Robert
96
HISTORY OF DUNSTABLE. [1757
Blood, Jr., and Abigail his wife " were admitted to ye Privi- lidge of owning ye Covenant, Octr. ye 9th 1757." Much the larger number entered the church as "full communionists." At the second meeting of the church, July 11, 1757, it was voted that "£40 5s. & 4d. Old Tenor," should be used "in procuring furniture for ye Table of ye Lord in this Place (viz.) a Table Cloth, a Napkin, two Flaggons, two Tankerds, six cups, three platters & likewise a Bayson for ye use of ye chh."
At the next meeting, Aug. 3, Ebenezer Sherwin was chosen a deacon, and the first communion was held on the first Sab- bath in this month. On the 31st of March ensuing, Samuel Taylor was chosen as the second deacon.
The bounds between Dunstable and Groton were examined and reviewed in April, 1756, and the line then commencing at Tyng's Corner passed on the easterly side of the old saw-mill, which stood where Cowpen Brook enters Massapoag Pond, "on the southerly side of the road that goes by Ebenezer Proctors in Dunstable, and terminated at a heap of stones on Flat Rock Hill." Feb. 15, 1757, a highway was laid out from the Province line by Joseph Danforth's barn, and thence onward to David Taylor's house.
It appears that each member of the parish built his own pew in the meeting-house, on a spot selected by himself, and that those who paid the heaviest taxes were entitled to the first choice. The names of the most fortunate were thus quaintly recorded by John Steel, the parish clerk :-

It was voted, on the 7th day of December following, " to lay out all ye money £210 12s. that comes by The Pew Ground in glass for ye windows of said house & to putting them up & in providing Boards for ye Pulpet."
At a meeting, March 7, 1758, the parish voted for the church " 26 windows & 23 of sd windows Be 24 .squares of glass in Each window that the 2 gavel End windows Be 15 squairs Each & the pulpit window is Left to the Descretion of the parish committe." This consisted of Ensign John Swallow,* Joseph Fletcher, and Abraham Kendall. Thus by degrees the old church on Meeting-House Hill was brought towards its completion.
As the territory of the Second Parish was indistinctly defined, a committee, consisting of Deacon Ebenezer Sherwin, Timothy Read, and Joseph Fletcher, was chosen in April of the ensuing year,
" To petition the Great & General Cort of this Province that They will Be pleased to appoint a Sevayor to Run a North & South Line By the Westerdly End of Mr Simon Thomsons Dwelling House a greable to the order of sd Honorable Cort By which this 2d parish was Errected to

"JOHN SWALLOW, " Parish Clerk."
March 5, 1759, the town voted that £16 should be assessed for "ye suport of a school, or schools," and that it should be " a Writting school as well as a Reading school," also, that " it should be a moveing school."
The town was well represented in the old French War, which commenced in 1755, and was closed by the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
Ensign John Cheney and William Blodgett were at the sur- render of Louisburg to the English, July 26, 1758. Their powder-horns are still preserved. That of Ensign John Cheney is elaborately ornamented with birds, fishes, deer, and the letters "F. C. W."; it has also the incription, " JOHN CHENEY his Horn, Cape Breton. Taken May 26, 1758." This horn is now in the possession of Mr. Thomas F. Cheney, depot- master in Dunstable. The horn of William Blodgett is now owned by Mr. George T. Blodgett, and bears this inscription : " WILLIAM BLODGET his horn, June ye 7 1760." It is covered with pictures of various animals, displaying the genius of the original owner.
Col. Ebenezer Bancroft, born April 1, 1738, and died Sept. 22, 1827, was an ensign in Capt. John Goffe's company in Col. Joseph Blanchard's regiment, and served through the war. Others in the service were Simeon Blood, James French, Ebenezer French, John Harwood, John Gilson, Joshua Wright, Ephraim Butterfield, Benjamin Butterfield, Jonathan Wood- ward, the miller of Massapoag, who was at the siege of Mon- treal under Gen. Wolfe ; Thomas Woodward, who was killed in Canada by the Indians ; John Woodward, who was also killed during the war ; and Samuel Taylor, who died at Lake George, Nov. 14, 1755.
Dec. 1I, 1759, a highway was laid out from John Steel's house to that of Deacon Ebenezer Sherwin, " two rods wide."

THE ACADIANS.
1760]
It was the custom in those days for the men to occupy the seats on one side of the church, and the women those on the other. The elders sat upon an elevated seat in front of the pulpit, and the children and servants occupied the galleries. A tythingman, with a long pole, kept them all in order. A glimpse of the arrangement of the seats may be had from a record of a public sale made November, 1759.
"Sold to ye Highest Bidder the Two Hind Seats in the Body of Seats in ye 2d parish Meting House the one half of ye Wimmings too hind Seats Next To ye middle alle to Mr Ebenr Kendall for £3 5s. 4d. law, the Next on the mens Side Next to ye middle alle to sd Ebenr Kendall for £2 175. 4d. & then ye other Half of ye wimmings too Hind Seats Next to the stairs To M Benja. Pike for £2 Is. 4d. & then the other Half of the mens too Hind Seats Next to ye place where the mens Stairs are to B Built To Mr Abraham Kendall for £2 0 0.
" SAMUEL COMINGS, "Vandue Master."
The parish voted, March 10, 1760, " and chose Edward Ken- dall to sweep the Meting House and take Cair of the Cushing & six Shillings Be his wages for the same." The selectmen this year were Eleazer Tyng, Major John A. Tyng, and Joseph Danforth, all of whom resided in that part of the town which is now Tyngsborough. Temple Kendall was the "Sealer of Lether," and £15 were appropriated for the "suporte of schools." John Steel, the faithful clerk of the West Parish, died this year on the 18th of August, and was buried on Meet- ing-House Hill.
He was highly respected, and by his death the town was called to experience a heavy loss. William H. Prentice was chosen town clerk in 1760, and the records under his hand are made in a better style.
In August of this year a part of a family of the Acadians, or French Neutrals, whose melancholy fate is so touchingly told in the " Evangeline " of H. W. Longfellow, was brought to this town for support. The family was large, and thus divided : Dunstable took Peter Landerée and Sarah his wife, also Peter Landerée, Jr. ; Dracut, Mary Landerée and Elizabeth Landerée ; while Tewksbury took Mary Magdalene and Jane
IO0
HISTORY OF DUNSTABLE. [1761
Landerée. It would be interesting to know the fate of this divided househould, but on this point the records are silent. Some of the Landerées were also supported by the town of Billerica, where one of them at least remained till about the time of the Revolution.
The lines established between the neighboring towns or parishes were guarded with jealous care, and frequently sur- veyed. On the 16th of September, 1761, the line between Dunstable and Groton, so recently fixed by the General Court, was " perambulated," and it then passed from a pillar of stones on Flat Rock Hill, southerly "near Mr. Robin's field," thence west of Joseph Fletcher's house, thence "to Old Angle Meadow," and so on to the mouth of Cowpen Brook, where it enters Massapoag Pond. This left the large tract of land called Unketynassett still in Groton.
A committee chosen to petition the General Court that the parish be made a district, presented the following report, which was accepted Jan. 24, 1761, by the House of Representa- tives : -
" Having herd ye parties & Considered thereon (they) are of oppinnion that to prevent all Controversies the Bounds of Sd presink ought to be as follows, viz., easterly on a north & south Line By the meridian running from ye province Line By ye West End of Simon Tomsons House to Capt John Tyngs Land & Bounded Southerly By Sd Tyngs Land westerly on Groton Line & Northerly on ye Province Line, Saving that ye Land within Sd Bounds Belonging To Eleazer Tyngs and Sd John Tyngs shall Continue To remain to the first Parish in Dunstable; and saving also that The Land Belonging to ye Inhabitants of sd first parish Lying adjoining on ye west side of sd North and South Line Shall Remain to sd first parish & that ye Lands adjoyning on ye Est Side of sd Line which Belongs to ye Inhabitants of sd 2d parish Shall Be & Remain to ye sd 2d parish & that a Sevayor Be appointed By this Cort to run sd Line & Erect Bounds & monuments therein & make Report thereof."
Benjamin Lincoln, Esq., was appointed to make the survey, and the charge therefor was to be borne equally between the First and Second Parish.
It is interesting to observe that the acceptance of this report is signed by the great James Otis as Speaker of the House of Representatives.
IOI
MEMBERS OF THE FIRST PARISH.
1762]
At a meeting of the Second Parish, Feb. 12, 1761, Joseph Danforth was chosen committee-man and an assessor "In ye room & sted of Mr John Steel Late of Dunstable Deceased," and on the 29th of June ensuing the parish "Then votted & grantted to Be assessed 1-13-0 for Col Linkon Running ye Line Between ye Two parrishes in Dunstable. JOHN SWALLOW, Parish Clerk."
The town chose, Feb. 24, 1761, Capt. Jonathan Butterfield " Deer Reef," and on May 25 it voted to raise £16 for the support of a school, and 18s. for not having one in 1758.
It appears that at this time the members of the parish had become somewhat remiss in respect to the delivery of the Rev. Josiah Goodhue's twenty-five cords of wood in due season, since at the meeting held March 2, 1762, the parish "Then votted and chose a Comtee (Josiah Blodgett, Adford Jaquith and Jeremiah Cummings) to Se that M' Goodhue have his wood By the time above fixed (Jan' Ist) or git it themselves."
The town at this period was increasing in population, and the First Parish, or precinct, consisted of the following persons :
