Places Worthy of Notice from Strangers.
THE CITY HALL, fronting Court Square, erected at an expense of $100,000, ranks among the finest build- ings in New England. It has an audience room capable of holding 3,000 persons, and accommodations for all city officers, Police Court, a portion of the High School, etc.
THE CEMETERY, in the south-easterly part of the city, has its main entrance from Maple street, near its junction with Central street, with an entrance for car- riages also from Pine street, and for people on foot from Mulberry and from Union streets. Although within this city, it is so secluded its existence would hardly be suspected by a stranger. On a portion of it, the forest trees still grow, and "Nature vies with Art in producing one of the most charming combinations of hill and valley, stream and fountain, trees and flowers, slopes and terraces, and winding foot-paths and open carriage-ways, imaginable." There are forty acres in the grounds, and the south part has recently been laid out in lots, and a number of beau- tiful and appropriate memorials of the dead erected.
THE UNITED STATES ARMORY, on State street, is described on page 68. Principal entrance to the grounds, cor- ner State and Byers street. Passes are required for admission to the arsenal or shops, and may be obtained at the office. Visitors see here the most perfect works for gun-making, great stores of arms,
many mementoes of war, (including marks of the fight here in the Shays re- bellion,) and views of the surrounding country from the top of the arsenal.
HAMPDEN PARK, north of B. & A. R. R., between the Connecticut River and Fulton street; having one entrance from Clinton street, and another from Plainfield street. Inaugurated Septem- ber 29, 1857. Purchased and improved by the Hampden County Agricultural Society at a cost of $31,600, for an ex- hibition ground, and leased by the Hampden Park Association.
Great Freshets.
Highest rise of water in Connecticut River-1801, twenty-one feet six inches; 1843, April 18, twenty feet eight inches; 1854, May 1, twenty-three feet six inch- es; 1856, August 21, eighteen feet nine inches, (Camp Thompson inundated) ; 1859, March 20, twenty feet six inches; 1862, April 20, twenty-two feet two inches, (Hampden Park flooded); 1865, March 18, eighteen feet ten inches; 1869, April 21, twenty-one feet (Hampden Park flooded); October 4, 1869, twenty- one feet six inches (Hampden Park flooded).
Indian Orchard.
This thriving village is in the north- east part of Springfield, on the Chicopee River. It is one mile north of Indiall Orchard station on the Boston and Al- bany Railroad, and seven miles from the City Hall. The ride there may be pleas- antly made from the Massasoit House in twenty minutes, any week-day morning, all the way by steam and horse cars, for thirty cents. A stage-ride a mile far ther brings one to Jenksville in Ludlow, which is " set on a hill," while below is Chicopee River, the boundary line of Springfield on that side.
Indian Orchard (see map in front of DIRECTORY, ) is laid out with straight, wide streets, crossing each other at right angles, and contains over 1,500 inhabit- ants. There are two dry-goods, one clothing, six grocery and two apothecary stores; a boot and shoe manufactory and several small shops in the same line, a cigar manufactory and store, a wheel- wright shop, post-office, two hotels, Li- brary Hall, two cotton mills, one omni- bus line, and a horse railroad, reservoir, gas works, etc. A number of new build- ings have been erected the past year; and a large hotel, a French church costing
76
SPRINGFIELD CITY DIRECTORY.
some $15,000, a bakery and market, and various dwelling-houses, are to be built this season. A large amount of granite curbing will also be put in on the streets, 3,500 feet of it being for the corporation. The railroad from Athol to Springfield is to run through Indian Orchard, and will be completed this year, if possible.
Indian Orchard mills and much of the land in this vicinity are owned by J. C. Howe & Co. of Boston; George O. Hovey is President of the corporation, and Ed- ward Atkinson, Treasurer, both gentle- men belonging to Boston; Charles J. Goodwin is Superintendent, and A. S. Packard, Paymaster. The mills contain 860 looms and 41,000 spindles, and turn out from 150,000 to 160,000 yards per week of shirtings, denims and sheetings; two kinds of the latter are made, one of standard quality, the other a lighter fabric. Two million three hundred thou- sand pounds of middling cotton are con- sumed annually, and the monthly pay- roll amounts to about $17,000. A new wheel is being put in which will add 125 horse-power, and a new building is to be fitted up as a warp-mill. A wise and lib- eral policy distinguishes the corporation in its dealings with employes, and gives character and permanence to the com- munity. The operatives agree to refrain from intoxicating liquors and profanity, observe the Sabbath, and pay their debts. The corporation have erected Library Hall for the use of the employes, with a reading-room, library, and hall that will seat some 300. The library contains about 2,000 volumes of popular interest and permanent value, and new books are constantly added. The reading-room is supplied during the winter with the Springfield daily papers, Boston Daily Advertiser, eight or ten weekly papers, and fifteen monthly periodicals. The employes very generally avail them- selves of these advantages. A better class of people are drawn here by them, and induced to settle. Evidence of this is seen in the schools, the houses, yards, lawns and flower-gardens. Formerly the children in the mills failed to attend school, although the law required it. A half-time school was therefore estab-
lished, and these children induced to go. They work in the mills in the forenoon, attend school till 4 o'clock in the after- noon, and work the remainder of the day, earning, if by the piece, nearly as much as before. The success of this new fea- ture of educational work, brings many letters of inquiry from abroad, some of which are from legislators in other states, who propose to embody it in their laws.
