times, we promise to be good neighbors, active, earnest workers with yon for the prosperity of the State and nation. joining with you in every good word and work.


United States Senator DAWES said : -


Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, - First let me thank you for this kind manifes- tation, and say that I am quite aware. at this festival of the sons of Springfield, that the time belongs to others, and not to me. I would be quite content to yield it all to those who have so many pleasant, friendly memories to recount to de- light and charm you. I know it becomes me to make acknowledgment of this toast in the briefest possible manner ; but before I do that, you will pardon me, even at this late hour. if I make my bow to the city of Springfield. She has won my heart to-day, and I am quite impatient to make avowal of the attach- ment. I have been captivated by the regal splendor with which she has come forth to receive our congratulations upon this most distinguished of all her birth- days, decorated and blushing like a bride, and yet as stately and dignified as a matron, swelling with pride as her children gather around her with their offer- ings. She receives our offerings, she receives our congratulations, and acknowl- edges the compliments we pay her with becoming grace and dignity. Increasing years, as has been said so many times to-day, have not brought to her decrepitude or decay, but perennial youth and beauty adorn her brow. The mother of a grand array of towns and cities which have sprung up along this beautiful valley, she is yet the youngest of them all (applause), " the fairest of her daughters since born." Could the cities of New York and Boston have seen her to-day in her glory, they would have been ashamed of that petty jealousy and rivalry to prevent her being a port of delivery for foreign commerce. But they fight against the stars, and their discomfiture, as well as her triumph, is certain in the near future. This spectacle which we have witnessed to-day could have been witnessed nowhere else but in this country, and under no other government but ours; for nowhere else could those elements of Massachusetts' growth, which made her successful as the founder of towns and of States, have had free scope and development.


I should have been glad, Mr. President, to have spoken of the place and functions of the United States Senate in that government, had you not reminded me before I got up that there would not be any time to say much of anything to von on the toast to which I was called to speak. But, sir, if I cannot say any- thing more, there is some satisfaction in saying that the United States Senate needs no defence or encomiums from me. It was placed in the Constitution of


611


SPRINGFIELD, 1636-1886.


the United States to protect the smaller States from the encroachments of the larger ones. It is the bulwark of the smaller States in the midst of those greater and more numerous, without which the uncontrolled members would submerge and swallow them up; and so important its provisions of equality of vote among the States, guaranteed in the Senate, appeared to the founders of our institutions, that they so built it into the Constitution that it cannot be taken ont by any amendment, as every other provision of that Constitution can be. Massachu- setts holds the guaranty of her equality in the Senate by title absolutely inde- structible as long as the government endures. It can be wrested from her only by revolution, or by revolutionary surrender. In that body Massachusetts has had in the past representation always worthy of her great name, and the high commission with which she has intrusted that representation. After the two great names of Webster and Summer, the illustrions in history, the old county of Hampshire of blessed memory - alas that it was ever divided ! - stands forth in the front rank with the names she has furnished to that representation. Caleb Strong, one of the first senators for Massachusetts, stern, stubborn, in- corruptible, and patriotic; Ashmun, a name illustrious in both houses of Con- gress and at the bar of the Commonwealth ; Mills, the scholar, the statesman, and orator of a listening and charmed Senate; Isaac C. Bates, whose voice rang in my ear like a silver trumpet the first time when a boy I entered the court- house at Northampton, and whose mantle is now worn so gracefully and so worthily by a descendant of the same stock in your neighboring town. These were the " River Gods " of their day (applause), and to these illustrious names the old county of Hampshire may point her present and future generations for ensample and for emulation.


Railroad Commissioner KINSLEY said :- -


Mr. President and Gentlemen, - It was always my Ick when a boy in Spring- field to be put at the tail-end of any fun that was going on, but I generally got in. And now, at 12.45 in the morning, after you have listened to the eloquent speeches that have been made, I am called upon to say a few words for the "old boys " of Springfield.


I will begin where my friend Mr. Ames Wells left off., He spoke of a worthy gentleman, Mr. Elijah Blake, who used to be the terror of the boys. But there was another worthy gentleman, whom I remember and whom you all remember very well, Mr. William Hatfield, who was a constable of the town, and who took care of the boys that sometimes made fun at Dr. Osgood's church. I remember one time when the missionary spirit was prevailing in Springfield,


612


SPRINGFIELD, 1636-1886.


and every one was very much interested in the mission of Mr. Armstrong at the Hawaiian Islands, that every little while the Sunday school made contributions for his and other missions. But Mr. Armstrong's mission generally brought more of our pennies than any other; for we knew Mr. Armstrong, and he some- times sent curiosities to Springfield to be shown to the Sunday-school scholars of Mr. George Merriam. I now recall that a contribution was to be taken up one Sunday afternoon for this mission; and the Saturday evening before, the boys met, as was their habit, in front of a well-known store which did consider- able trade with Mr. R. M. Cooley, who made soap and candles. The agreement with the firm and Mr. Cooley was, that they should take their pay in pennies for clothing bought of them; so that they had under their counter a large dry- goods case almost filled with pennies,- old-fashioned cents. This evening the boys changed their ninepences and quarters into cents. The next Sunday afternoon we all sat in the old square pew, in the corner of the gallery, and in due time the contribution was to be taken up. Mr. Hatfield, who wore an old-fashioned white wool hat, one of the kind that you can blow upon and make winrows, and one that had been worn long enough to have the edges a little bit tender, began to take up the contribution. He went down to Charley Childs's pew, which was in the front row, and took his contribution, and then he came up to the pew where we boys were. We commenced to unload our pennies into the hat, chucked them in with some considerable force, and after the contribution from this pew had been taken up he began to go down the aisle to take up further contributions. As he went along the top of the hat opened and the pennies began to drop out. Pretty soon the hole became larger, and down went the pennies on the floor with a tremendous crash. Dr. Osgood spoke, and said that if Mr. Hatfield would wait there where he was then standing he would pronounce the benediction. The benediction was pronounced, and then the question arose among the boys as to how we were to get out. We could not jump out of the window, and we waited and waited to help to pick up the pennies. By and by we made a dash for the door. Mr. Hatfield was ahead of us on one side of the door, and Mr. Blake on the other ; and before we could pass either of them our ears got a fine twisting, and some of us, after we arrived home, wished that our trousers had been reinforced.


In my travels around the world I often go back, in mind, to this, the most beautiful city, in my opinion, that there is anywhere. There is no city that begins to be located as this is, on this beantiful river, and so diversified as it is with hill and valley. It seems to me that the trees are greener in Springfield than anywhere else.


But, after all, the great glory of Springfield is in the men and women it has produced. Why, just think of it, gentlemen ! Go back fifty years and look for a


613


SPRINGFIELD, 1636-1886.


moment at the missionary spirit which then existed, and of the great number of missionaries that went out from this town. At this moment I recall the names of Van Lennep, Calhoun, and the Blisses (and there are others whose names do not come to mind now), men who have been stationed all over the world, and who have carried good living and pure religion wherever they have been. This, in itself, is glory enough for Springfield.


Consider, for a moment, that the Episcopal Church, which was formed here by the Rev. Henry W. Lee, has sent out three bishops, - Bishop Lee, of Iowa, Bishop Littlejohn, of Long Island, and Bishop Burgess. That, in itself, is glory enough for Springfield.


I recall, with a great deal of interest, the name of a quiet, modest man, who, although he started his enterprise in another place, succeeded in bringing the manufacture of india-rubber to a high state of perfection in a shop now stand- ing on Mill river. I alhide to Mr. Charles Goodyear, whose name is world- renowned. I remember distinctly a little incident which happened during his life in Springfield. He was very poor, and one day was arrested for the non- payment of a debt. He was put in the jail limits. He had a suit of clothes making at a tailor-shop in Springfield, and on Saturday night, when the elothes were to be delivered, one of the firm said that Mr. Goodyear was at Sheriff Foster's. But he said to the trotter-boy in the shop, " When you go home, take Mr. Goodyear's suit of clothes to him, and tell him that he can pay for them when it suits his convenience." On his way to the jail the boy stopped at his home for supper. A barrel of fine red apples had been delivered that afternoon at the boy's house, and his mother requested him to unhead it. He did so, and took out of the barrel one of the largest apples and put it in his jacket-pocket. He then started for the jail, which was near by, to deliver the clothes to Mr. Goodyear. To his surprise he found Mr. Goodyear reading in Sheriff Foster's office. He was not behind the bars, but was only in the jail limits. He deliv- ered the clothes and the message of his employer. It occurred to him that, perhaps, the red apple would be acceptable to Mr. Goodyear. He took the apple out of his pocket and handed it to Mr. Goodyear, who thanked him very kindly. Ou the 1st of January, 1854, this young man was in Paris, in John Munroe's office. It was Sunday, a fete day. Lord Palmerston and other notable Englishmen were there conferring with Napoleon about the allied army. The young man went into Mr. Munroe's office and sat down to read some letters that had been received there for him. After he had finished reading, he looked up and saw in the next room Mr. Goodyear. Soon Mr. Munroe came to him and said, " Do you know that gentleman?" pointing to Mr. Goodyear. lle replied that he did ; that the gentleman was Mr. Charles Goodyear. Mr. Munroe then


-


614


SPRINGFIELD, 1636-1886.


said, " He wishes to see you." The young man then went to Mr. Goodyear, who looked up from the desk at which he was writing, and said, "How do you do? You are from Springfield, and used to be a clerk for Palmer & Clark. Do you remember a certain red apple which was given to me once?" The young man replied that he did, and that he was very glad to know that circumstances had greatly changed ; and also that he had noticed with a great deal of interest what had been said of Mr. Goodyear, especially in regard to india-rubber pon- toons, which he was then making for the French government. After a pleasant conversation, Mr. Goodyear asked the young man to step around to his hotel at 12 o'clock. The young man did so, and soon he was invited by Mr. Goodyear to drive with him to the Bois de Boulogne. The emperor, one other distin- guished party, Mr. Goodyear, and the young clerk from the Springfield tailor- shop were the only ones that drove that day up and down the avenue behind four horses. Mr. Goodyear showed this young man great attention afterwards, and they were constantly talking about Springfield. Why, gentlemen, the fact that Charles Goodyear carried to such great perfection his india-rubber inven- tions in this town is glory enough for Springfield.


In my travels over the country I find, all the way from Halifax to San Fran- cisco. men scattered along the railway lines who have graduated from this Boston & Albany Railroad. And it is only a few days ago, when in the far West, I met several men of my set, and every one of them said something about this beauti- ful old town. They mentioned the names of friends whom they knew as boys, and after whom they asked with most affectionate tenderness. I should do them and myself injustice if I were to sit down without naming one, a lady, most beautiful in appearance, most dignified in her bearing, and lovely in her char- acter, who has done more for the boys of Springfield than any one person that I know of. She is now living among you, and I mention her with the greatest veneration and respect, Miss Margaret Bliss. I also wish to mention three men (there are others, but these three names come to my mind at this moment), from whom most of the boys have received kind words of encouragement some time in their lives, which they would never have had if it had not been for these three gentlemen now living among you, and after whom the boys always inquire when I meet them in my travels through the country. I allude to Mr. Homer Foot, Judge Henry Morris, and Mr. Henry Fuller, Jr. And all I desire is, that the men of to-day will continue and carry out the enterprise and high principles practised by the men of noble character of the last fifty years.


Speeches were also made by the Rev. John Cuckson, of Springfield, and Rey. Mr. Harding, of Longmeadow. Many letters of regret


615


SPRINGFIELD, 1636-1886.


were received, including a cordial one from the venerable George Bancroft. Gen. W. H. L. Barnes, of San Francisco, took occasion in his letter of regret to recall at length the scenes of his boyhood.


Thus closed the most interesting banquet given at Springfield in this generation.

CHAPTER XXIII.


MAY 26, 1886.

THE first feature of the second and closing day of the celebration was the children's concert in Court square. Raised seats to accom- modate nearly two thousand were put up in front of Odd Fellows hall. The square was full of interested people, and the children of all the public schools, under the skilful direction of Prof. F. Zucht- mann, gave a charming entertainment. Military bands played before the children began. "The Puritan March," composed for the occa- sion by Prof. Edward B. Phelps, was rendered by Gartland's Band, and was received with great favor. The children began their concert with the " Pioneer Hymn," beginning -


Send forth a shout of holy joy !


The words were written by a citizen of Springfield for the occa- sion, and were set to music by Professor Phelps. Many patriotic choruses followed, and were warmly received. The bands concluded the concert.


But the event of the day, and, to many, of the week itself, was the procession which formed at 1 P.M., the first division being stationed on North Main street, and the others forming npon the various side streets, and falling into line as the column passed down Main street. The order of march was as follows : -
