A never before used autograph of the world famous John Brown, great abolitionist, who lived in Springfield and latored in the cause of Anti- Slavery for years. The Brown papers, owned here, have yielded this most interesting relic.


The most famous Springfield resident in the period of the Civil War was John Brown, the patriot- abolishionist, known at first only as a wool merchant with warehouse headquarters close to the railroad depot in the early forties. He lived with his family in the Franklin street "house with the white pillars" later pointed out to thousands as the home of a nationally famous hero, though other unpretentious houses in town because of his brief occupancy of them have become famous, too.


He was born in Torrington, Connecticut, in 1800, and arrived in Springfield in June, 1846, with two of his sons, John Junior and Jason, as eastern agents of Perkins and Brown, sheep-raisers, and dealers in wool from Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York. One of his employes, Thomas, a fugitive slave, was his active associate in the activities of Brown in the anti-slavery movement, the organization of secret opposition to the national curse of slavery, and establishment of truly marvelous "underground railroad" system of protection for escaping slaves en route for Canada. Many slaves were aided in getting to permanent safety and to employment. The wool-sorting, grading and preparing for marketing as it reached Springfield by rail from the western producers was done by the Browns in the old King building, on Railroad Row, west of where now is the Paramount Theater. Rapidly increasing business in its earliest years required the larger warehouse facilities of the Chester W. Chapin block where now is the eastern end of the present Main street railroad granite arch.


Brown's movements helping to free the slaves were decided factors in bringing on the Rebellion . His plans involved arming the slaves with pikes, that complete emancipation might be established; and he became a conspicuous leader in stirring the Country to Civil War. He went to Kansas to engage in the struggle to make that new state a "free" one, where one of the sons, who had been a Springfield resident, was killed. He then became a more violent opponent of slavery. He and his followers finally seized the arsenal at Harpers' Ferry, where he was hanged for treason by the State of Virginia.

An Advertisement by HILLCREST PARK


HE head of every family endeavors to build about his loved ones the wall of protection against unexpected contingencies. The left side of this wall may be designated "My present earning capacity" the right side "My insurance estate" future as well as present protection. However, the drawbridge of "doubt" is always down giving access to the enemy "danger" unless the gate between the two walls is barricaded. This gate is your "Family Memorial"-closed if you have provided for it in advance, open if not.


Hillcrest Memorial Park and Community Mausoleum offers you a new and beauti- ful treatment of an age-old problem-a problem which is inevitable.


Here is found none of the suggestion of the old-type graveyard. Instead we find the symbol of life surrounding us-in the flowering shrubs, the rolling greensward, the singing of many birds, the stately stance of Elm and Maple.


Do you know that the average price of a Family Memorial accommodating four is but two hundred and eighty dollars, including perpetual care; that such a reservation may be arranged on a basis as low as five dollars a month?


And please remember-in arranging your Family Memorial at Hillcrest Park, the added expense of monument, perpetual care, music at services, use of chapel and re- ceiving vault in winter, lowering device, chapel tent, flower containers and corner markers are eliminated entirely. These are all part of Hillcrest Service, furnished to one and all-gratis.


Why not investigate Hillcrest's many facilities now! Remove the burden of duty from the shoulders of a loved one when they are least able to bear it. A request for the beautifully illustrated brochure entails no obligation. Merely call 2-5517 to learn the facts.


The Hillcrest Mausoleum is available for immediate entombment. Price, $550.00 per crypt complete. 1000 crypts in all-only 60 remain unsold.

AMOS GAMWELL CROSS (FOUNDER)


FRED B. CROSS (OWNER)


THE HISTORY OF A. G. CROSS AND SON


Amos Camwell Cross, son of Amos Whittemore Cross, [a direct descendant of David and Grace (Moody) Cairn- Cross of Dundee, Scotland], and Clarissa Gamwell, was born in Washington, Mass, on June 11, 1845.


Mr. Cross was fourteen years of age when he secared his first employment, and from that time, until 1890 he was engaged in a varied assortment of business ventures. In May, 1861. he enlisted in the Union Army and served his enlistment term at Arlington Heights, Virginia.


In the year 1890, Mr. Cross founded the Century Manufacturing Company, of Springfield, with which his name was so long connected. From an eight-machine plant, it grew to large proportions under his management, Ile took as a partner Oliver U. Church, of Middlefield, with whom he was associated until Mr. Church's death. Located at first in llarrison Avenue, after Mr. Church's death, twenty years later, the plant moved to the Potter Knitting Com- pany fluilding in Mill Street, remaining there for a decade; then the organization. now known as A. G. Cross and Son. went into a fine new building in Main Street, bounded by Long Hill and Leete Streets, equipped with every modern convenience. The firm name was adopted when the plant came to be owned solely by father and son, the son being Frederick Bowen Cross. Mr. Cross remained netive in the business until a few days before his death, and was also interested in real estate here, as well as in many important eivie movements. He had a fine relationship with his em- ployces, his working force having been one of the most loyal in the city, as he himself said. His consideration and kindness for them were met with a similar response; and labor troubles at the Cross plant were unknown.


Amos G. Cross married, on August 3, 1871, Lida A. Ford, of Ashfield, Massachusetts. They had one son, Frederick Bawen. .


Mr. Cross died in Springfield on June 11, 1932, in his eighty-seventh year. Though he had relinquished some of the activities of carlier years, he lost none of the alertness of intellect and soundness of judgment that ever distin- paished him. He was active in the company until the end, and able to continue his work as he wished. His death way a loss to the city that loved him so well; for he was a man whose accomplishments and honored name were a heritage most worthy, and to be treasured as such hy his fellow-citizens.

The SMITH CARRIAGE Company


David Smith 3rd who founded the business 109 years ago this Spring was born March 19, 1803 in the village of Paucatuck, now Feeding Hills. David's mother and father dying when he was 11 years old, he went to live with his father's brother Seth Smith; apprenticed in 1817 as a wheelwright to Spencer Flower of Feeding Hills. On reaching his majority he worked with his employee about six months when he made a two horse pleasure wagon for himself conveying his sister and two aunts to Warren, N. Y. In the Spring of 1827, with several assistants, David gradually built up a flourishing business in the manufacture of carriages and wagons in a two story brick building which is still part of the Smith ·Carriage Company plant. Buggies, phaetons, surreys, victorias, barouches, chaises, farm wagons, also stage coaches some being shipped as far as Virginia. Mr. Smith retired from active business in his 71st year and was succeeded by his son Wm. H. Smith, who bought of his father his entire interest in stock in trade in the carriage business for $12,000.00 In 1892 the Smith Carriage Company supplied Charles E. Duryea with a buggy and after the motor and gears had been installed the first automobile ever op- erated in the U. S. was given its tryout, this was the original Stevens Duryea car with an average speed of 12 miles an hour. This car with original body supplied by the Smith Carriage Co. reposes in the museum of the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, D. C. During the transition period the company specialized on the commercial types of automobile bodies and its present activities are largely centered on this line of manufacture.
