After worshipping with the parent church at Longmeadow village for almost ninety years, the Congregationalists of East Longmeadow began about 1825 to consider the matter of a church in their own village, and on the 16th of June, 1827, the society was incorporated under the name of "Proprietors of the Meeting House of the Third Religious Society in Longmeadow."

title was changed to "Third Religious Society in Longmeadow," in 1830, and in 1895 to "First Congregational Society of East Longmeadow." The church was organized on the 22d of April. 1829, as the Second Congregational church in Longmeadow, the name being changed in 1895 to "First Congregational Church of East Longmeadow." A house of worship was erected on the hill overlooking the village, at a cost of $3,500, in 1828, and was dedicated in November of that year. In 1859 the structure was moved down the hill into the village and extensively remodeled, forming the present church building. The former site was

adopted for a parsonage. The first pastor installed was Rer. Calvin Foot, who was installed April 15, 1831, and dismissed July 8, 1835. His successors have been : Rev. Martyn Tupper, 1835-49; Rev. William E. Dixon, 1852-4; Rev. Joshua R. Brown, installed December 13, 1854, died September 7, 1858; Rev. Alfred B. Peabody, 1860-67; Rev. Alfred I. Dutton, 1869-85; Rev. Robert C.

year a church building was erected and dedicated, and is still in use, having been thoroughly renovated in 1880. A parsonage was erected in 1860, and it is worthy of mention that all the church property is free from debt. Apart from supplies by notable clergymen from Wesleyan academy at Wilbraham and residents of Springfield, the pastors have been as follows: Rev. David K. Merrill, 1853-4; Rev. Rodney Gage, 1855-6; Rev. Jonas M. Clark, 1856-7; Rev. Randall Mitchell, 1860-2; Rev. Thomas C. Pratt, 1862-4; Rev. William Rice, 1864-6; Rev. Henry T.

The Roman Catholics of East Longmeadow began holding meetings in the town hall about 1883, and built a modest church in 1887, with a seating capacity of 300. In 1895 the house which had formerly been the Congregational parsonage, with two acres of land, was purchased for a parish house, and was fitted up for occupation as such. Until 1894 the church, known as St. Michael's, was, like that at West Longmeadow, a mission of St. William's church at Mittineague; but in the year named the two churches in Longmeadow were formed into an independent parish, and so continue at the present time. The pastors in charge have been as follows: Rev. Patrick Healy (monthly mass at West Longmeadow only), 1870-83; Rev. E. Pelletier, 1883-5; . Rev. J. E. Campeau, 1885-8; Rev. J. H. A. Biron, 1888-90; Rev. Frederick Bonneville, 1890-93; Rev. Humphrey Wren, 1893; Rev. Anthony Dwyer (the first resident pastor), 1894-1900; Rev. John P. Hackett, 1900, now in charge.
The East Longmeadow public library was established in the winter of 1896-7, and now contains about 1,200 volumes,
( 435 )

with some 450 patrons. The expense of running the institution is met by an annual appropriation from the town, while some assistance in the way of furnishing books is received from the state library commission, and by the contribution of friends. The direction of the library is in the hands of a board of three trustees and a librarian, whose names appear in the list of town officers.
Apart from its agricultural interests, East Longmeadow owes its development principally to its valuable quarries of red sandstone, which have given to the town a wide fame. This stone underlies a considerable portion of the town, and has been quarried from the time of the early settlements. At first the stone was considered common property, and up to the beginning of the nineteenth century the party who discovered "a ledge" was considered to hold first title to work the same, even though located upon the land of another. But for the past 100 years the several quarries have, under the law, been held and operated by the owners of the land, or under lease from them. The stone has been shipped to all parts of the country, and has been used in many public buildings and other works. Much of it has been used in the United States armory buildings at Springfield, and from these quarries was taken the stone for the foundation of the formidable iron fence which incloses the armory grounds. In early times it was used for gravestones, and is still employed to some extent in monumental work. Wider use obtains, how- ever, as a material for public buildings and fine private resi- dences, many of which, in all sections of the country, have been constructed from the product of these quarries. Among such buildings may be mentioned the Pierce building, Estey Organ company's building, Youth's Companion building, new Trinity church, and residences of Oliver Ames and C. A. Whittier, at Boston; Harvard university gymnasium, Law School building and Sever hall, Cambridge : Vanderbilt hall, Walch hall. Phelps memorial, Osborne memorial and Bi-Centennial building at Yale college, New Haven, Conn .: Waldorf-Astoria hotel. Teachers' college, Union League club house, St. James' Episcopal church, Holy Trinity church, St. Agnes' church, Berkeley lyceum and

New York Athletic club building, New York city; Brooklyn Eagle building, Brooklyn, N. Y .; Crouse memorial building, Syracuse, N.

J .; the office buildings of the New England and New York Life Insurance companies at Kansas City, Mo .; New York Life Insurance company's building at Omaha, Neb .; Howard Memorial library, New Orleans, La .; and the Ames memorial monument in Wyoming, not to mention a multitude of other well known structures.
The color of the stone varies in the different quarries, con- sisting of sandstone, the Kibbe red, so called, and light brown stone. Some of the quarries have been operated for a hundred years, in a systematic way, and even longer than that, in a hap- hazard manner prior to the definite establishment of property rights in the stone. The more widely known of the quarries are the Taylor, Salisbury, MeGregory, Billings, Kibbe, Pine Kibbe, Worcester and Maynard. The largest industry is carried on by the Norcross Brownstone company, organized early in 1901, succeeding to the business which had for twenty-seven years been conducted by the firm of Norcross Brothers. They employ more than a hundred hands, and have a fine new plant beside the tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad for sawing and dressing stone for the trade. A large business is also done by the firm of James & Marra, with offices at Spring- field, who employ an average of seventy-five men, and have a yearly output of about 12,000 tons of high-grade stone. Ap- parently the supply is inexhaustible, and the business gives promise of still increasing magnitude.
The area of the town is 13.4 square miles, and its population at the time of division, as shown by the state census of 1895, was 1,591; but in 1900 the national census showed a falling off to 1,187.

CHAPTER XIV
THE TOWN OF RUSSELL
On February 26, 1792, in response to a petition from a number of inhabitants in that part of the towns of Westfield and Montgomery which lay south of the main branch of Westfield river, the legislature passed an act creating a new town in Hampshire county, naming the jurisdiction Russell. Tradition says that the name was given in honor of a prominent citizen of Boston, who was closely associated with public events, and who, in consideration of the honor thus bestowed upon him, promised to donate to the first church society of the new town a bell for use in calling the settlers to worship.
The incorporation of another town in this part of the county seems to have been a necessity, for the settlers here were at much inconvenience in transacting business of a public nature at the seats of Westfield and Montgomery; therefore the general court conferred on the inhabitants full town powers, including authority to elect a representative to the legislature. This was not a favor but a right to which the settlers were entitled, for their number on the territory set off aggregated about 400 per- sons. Were the town records perfect an interesting narrative might be made setting forth the names of nearly all the heads of families who constituted the first settlers, but in Russell, as in many other of the old towns whose history dates back more than a century, the people had greater regard for the comfort and well-being of their families than for the formalities of strict attention to public records. This remark, however, must not be taken as a reflection upon our forefathers in Russell, for in few towns are the records found complete.

THE TOWN OF RUSSELL
Tradition informs us that Russell was settled largely by people from Westfield, and that originally they came to the country west of the Connecticut from the eastern portions of Massachusetts and also from the Connecticut colonies. A few of them traced their ancestry to the time of the Puritans, while the majority were descended from the sturdy New Englanders who came into the new world at a later date, and finding the eastern plantations thickly settled, naturally turned to the more remote localities where lands were cheaper. At the time this upper valley of Westfield river had become known and some attempt at settlement had been made. After a few families had located here the region took the name of "New Addition", the same as was applied to Montgomery, and was so known until the incorporation of the town in 1792.
It is claimed that the pioneers of Russell were two brothers named Barber, and a Mr. Gray, who located and made the first improvement on what was known as Glasgow mountain, but whence they came, how long they remained, no past chronicler of Russell history furnishes us any clear light. But following them closely there came to this vicinity a band of sturdy settlers who cleared the lands and opened the way for later arrivals. They came chiefly from Westfield and among them were men and families of Scotch-Irish birth and parentage, strong, deter- mined men and women who were resolved to make for themselves comfortable homes in the new locality.
Having recourse to old records and various accounts relat- ing to early life in this vicinity, we are able to reproduce these names as representing substantially the earliest settlers in Rus- sell : Isaac Palmer, Elias Parks, Levi Bishop, John Mallory, Ozias Finney, Isaac Bronson, John Hawley, Abraham Bradley, Dr. Stebbins, Titus Doolittle, Daniel Mallory, Andrew Mallory, Samuel Williams, Thomas Field, Jacob Loomis, Robert Hazard, Able Tuttle, Newman Bishop, Benjamin Todd, Stephen Hughes, Silas Noble, Benjamin Atwater, Joel Atwater, Richard Russell, Samuel Chapman, Seth Gridley and Jesse Newton. And there were others, probably as early in their settlement as any who are mentioned. but through the lapse of a century their names have been forgotten.

OUR COUNTY AND ITS PEOPLE
The surname Palmer has long been known in Russell his- tory, both in town affairs and also in the substantial development of the land. Isaac Palmer left four sons, Squire, Loren, Elijah and Reuben, whose descendants are yet in the town and county. A glance at the civil records will show how the representatives of this surname have been prominently identified with Russell his- tory. The surname Mallory had at least three representatives among the early settlers, and from them sprung a considerable number of descendants, although the pioneers are gone and the later-day generations have become scattered through other localities.
The Parks family through all generations from the time of Elias, the pioneer, who is believed to have settled here about the time of the revolutionary war, have been conspicuously identified with the civil and social history of the town. Elias Parks was selectman in 1810, and one of the family name now holds that office, and is, as well, engaged in industrial pursuits. Nelson D. Parks was county commissioner from 1858 to 1864. Levi Bishop had five sons-David, Aaron, James, Charles and Levi, jun.,-from whom have come the later men of the town bearing that name. Robert Hazard left no descendants. Isaac Bronson had several sons, among them being Allen, John and Harvey, but the surname now is not numerously represented in Russell. Titus Doolittle, himself a quiet, earnest plodder. along life's path, was not specially active in public affairs, yet he pro- vided well for his family. One son attained a seat on the bench of the courts in Vermont, and another entered the legal profes- sion in this state, practicing in Hampshire county.
The Bishops, descendants of Newman Bishop, at one time were numerous in the town, and Newman, junior, attained nearly his hundredth year. The pioneer Bishop left three sons, Jere- miah, Alva and Newman, jun., whose descendants are now scattered through western Hampden county. Samuel Williams had five sons, all of whom, save one, removed to other localities. Jacob Loomis had six sons, Jacob, Hubbard, Josiah, Caleb, Lyman and Solomon. Abel Tuttle had four sons, Abel, Lyman, Almon and Daniel, through whom the family name has been

perpetuated in the county. Stephen Hughes had four sons, John, Stephen, Henry and John (2d), none of whom left chil- dren. Benjamin Atwater left children, among them being Harris, Titus and Noah. Benjamin Todd, one of the pioneers of the town, was an old revolutionary patriot and served with Gen. Israel Putnam. He had four sons and three daughters, but the family name now has few representatives in the county.
Silas Noble was a worthy settler, a man of influence in early Russell history and one whose surname has always maintained a high standing in western Hampden county. Silas' sons were Silas, jun., Roland, Reuben, Albert and Seth; and he also had three daughters. Richard Russell was the worthy head of a large family, there being five sons-Thomas, Simeon, Almon, Abel and Yale, the descendants of some of whom are yet in the county. Joel Atwater's family was quite large but now has few repre- sentatives in this locality.
Samuel Chapman, who is mentioned among the early settlers in Russell, was father of the late Chief Justice Reuben Atwater Chapman, of the Supreme judicial court. Judge Chapman was born in Russell and attained a higher position in public life than any other of our townsmen. A more extended reference to his life and career will be found in an earlier chapter of this work. Jesse Newton, of whom incidental mention has been made, was another of the prominent early settlers here. He had three sons-Elias, Ezra and Robert. This surname now has few representatives in this part of the county.
Present citizens of Russell will recall many of these old family names and perhaps a majority of those of the present generation of factors in the town's history can trace their an- cestry to one or more of the settlers whose names are recorded on preceding pages. The claim is not made that the list is complete, or is as full as it should be, but in Russell the en- quirer after events of early history encounters a number of adverse conditions, and few indeed are the instances in which reliable information can be secured relative to the year in which settlement was begun by the pioneers. In the early history of Westfield frequent allusion to these settlers will be found, for

what now is Russell originally was largely within the limits of that town.
It must be seen, however, that settlement in this locality did not begin much earlier than the closing years of the last French wars, and when once undertaken the number of settlers increased so rapidly that the creation of a new town became necessary. At the time of the first federal census the inhabitants here were enumerated as residents in Westfield and Montgomery, but in 1800 the number of persons living in Russell was 431. The subsequent growth and ultimate decline in population in the town, as shown by the census reports, has been as follows: 1810. 422; 1820, 491 ; 1830, 507 ; 1840, 555; 1850, 521; 1855, 677: 1860, 605: 1865, 618; 1870, 635; 1875, 643; 1880, 823; 1885, 847; 1890, 879; 1895, 846; 1900, 793.
From this it is seen that the maximum population was at- tained in 1890, since which time the total decrease has been less than 200, a somewhat remarkable fact when the town is placed in comparison with others in the county. This indicates & healthful condition of affairs at all periods of the town's history, and particularly during the last twenty-five years. In fact there are few abandoned or neglected farms in Russell, while within the boundaries of the town are at least three manufacturing interests of importance. Skirting the town on its northeast side is the Boston and Albany railroad, the operation of which has benefitted all local interests. Previous to the construction of the road Russell was a station of some consequence on the route of the Eighth turnpike corporation, which extended from West- field into the town and thence to Falley's store in Blandford. One of the first highways laid out in this locality was that opened during the early years of the revolution and led west from Springfield through Westfield, entering the southeast corner of Russell in the neighborhood of Glasgow mountain, the latter more recently called Little Tekoa.
In connection with the settlement, growth and civil history of Russell we find no events of great importance. For more than a century the 8,340 acres of land comprising the town have been devoted chiefly to agriculture. The town has many excel-

lent farming areas and the hill tops generally afford excellent pasturage for cattle. Lumbering, too, has been a leading pur- suit for many years, the numerous streams furnishing abundant water power for operating saw mills, while the railroad affords ready access to profitable markets.
Whatever there is of revolutionary history in the town is narrated in the general chapters, and during the war of 1812-15 the sentiment existing among the inhabitants here was in accord with that in nearly all other towns in the county. John Car- rington and Lyman Holmes are credited with having entered the service from Russell during that struggle, and in the war of 1861-5 more than fifty men enlisted from the town.
Civil History .- For several years previous to the incorpors- tion of the town the inhabitants of this part of Westfield and Montgomery suffered many inconveniences by reason of the: remote situation from the seat of town business, and for remedy thereof they petitioned the general court with result in the pas- sage of the act of February 25, 1792, creating the new town of Russell. Soon afterward a warrant was issued for the first meeting for the election of officers, and thereupon the various positions were properly filled. However, no record is found ts show who were the officers for the first year. Beginning with 1793 the succession of selectmen and town clerks is as follows:
