The final toast "The Men Who Drugged Us"-was answered by Dr. William B. Miller of Springfield, a native of the town, who spoke concerning its physicians, and closed with a suggestion that Spring- field should give Ludlow an invitation to return into the family again, to which a stentorian voice responded, "Pay your debts first." which the Doctor acknowledged as apropos.


A number of letters of invitation to the centennial exercises were read.


FROM HON. IL. L. DAWES, CONGRESSMAN REPRESENTING THE TOWN.


I am very much obliged to the Committee of the Town of Ludlow for the kind invitation to participate in their approaching Centennial Cele- bration. I regret that official engagements will prevent my taking part in those interesting exercises. A hundred years in the life of the town cannot but be full of interest and instruction, and I should, had it been possible, have found great pleasure in not only taking part in your Centennial but visiting your people.


FROM HON. GEORGE M. STEARNS, DISTRICT ATTORNEY.


I received your invitation to be present at the interesting celebration


504


HISTORY OF LUDLOW


of your Town's Centennial, and should be greatly pleased to participate with you in the ceremonies of the occasion. But my close attention is required at the present term of court, and I shall be compelled to forego the pleasure.


FROM HON. N. T. LEONARD. OF WESTFIELD.


The state of my health will prevent my complying with your kind invitation to mingle with the citizens of your town in their approach- ing Centennial Celebration. A residence in the county now wanting but a few days of half a century has afforded me opportunities of mak- ing the acquaintance of many of the citizens of Ludlow, and the recol- lections connected therewith are mainly pleasant.


FROM HON. HENRY FELLER, SENATOR OF THE DISTRICT.


I most sincerely regret your kind invitation to be present at your Centennial Celebration did not reach me till the 16th, as I should have been most happy to have joined with you and your fellow -tow namen on the occasion.


FROM HON. GEORGE D. ROBINSON.


OF CHICOPEE, THE TOWN'S REPRESENTATIVE TO THE GENERAL COURT.


Accept my thanks for your invitation in behalf of your Town Com- mittee to be present at your Centennial Celebration on the seventeenth instant. I regret to say it will be next to impossible for me to attend. As your representative in Boston, I find that the Legislature will demand my attendance there later than the day named. With best wishes for a happy and successful union of old friends and renewal of old associations, I am yours, &c.


FROM COL. HARVEY CHAPIN. OF SPRINGFIELD.


Your invitation to be present on the occasion of the Centennial Cel- ebration, on the 17th, has been duly received. Eappreciate fully the cordial and kindly feeling which prompts this token of respect to one who was on familiar terms with the men of Ludlow sixty years ago, many of whom are now dead and gone. I should be pleased to make one of your number at this coming celebration, but my weight of years must be my excuse for declining this and similar festivities which would otherwise be most agreeable.

THE CENTENNIAL


Letters of regret were also received from Judge Morris, and from W. M. Pomeroy, of the Springfield Union. Jerry Miller, of Beloit, Wis., a former citizen, wrote a long letter containing interesting reminiscences of the town and its people. Letters were also received by the com- mittee from former ministers in the town. Rev. Isaac Jennison, over eighty years of age, the first regular pastor of the Methodist Society, and architect and builder of its original edifice as well, wrote thus :--


I feel disposed to inform the dear friends of Ludlow that I have not forgotten those pleasant days and years I spent while at Wilbraham and Ludlow. The years 1825 and 1826 were employed in superintend- ing the building of the old Academy at Wilbraham and the little Church at Ludlow. What good times we had in the revival at Ludlow when the Fullers, Millers, Aldens and many others were converted! Dr. Wilbur Fisk and myself came over to aid in that good work. Most of them have gone to their reward in heaven. It would afford me much real enjoyment to meet any and all who remain to be with you on Wednes- day of next week, and review the past and exhort you all to cleave to the Lord.


Revs. Philo Hawkes, pastor of the M. E. Church in 1836, J. W. Dadmun, in 1842, George Prentice, in 1859, and Thomas Marey, pre- siding ekler, 1854-1857, also sent expressions of regret.


The reading of these letters closed the formal exercises of the day, and the congregation was dismissed. But knots of older and newer acquaintances were gathered about the premises until nearly or quite time for the curfew bells.


At an early evening hour the seats of the spacious Congregational Church were all well filled for the concert. \ stage had been built across the west end of the room, on which the singers were seated. At about the appointed time Wilbur F. Miller, conductor, gave the signal and the exercises commenced with the anthem. The program was followed throughout the evening, with added pieces. Every- thing went off in accord with the spirit of the day and to universal satisfaction. Many a dollar concert ticket has been sold to parties who have received for it an entertainment much inferior to this, the gift of the singers to the people of the town. The thanks of the people were more than due to all who participated, and not less to Messrs. J. Gilbert Wilson, pianist, and G. H. Southland, cornetist, of Springfield, and Mrs. Alvin Barton, of Knoxville, Tenn., than to the earnest and gifted singers of our town.

HISTORY OF LUDLOW


A not unpleasant episode enlivened the recess between parts. 1 hint had been given Hon. H. L. Dawes, a few days before, that the standing application for a post office at Ludlow Center might find an opportunity for a favorable reply at this time. Mr. Dawes acted at once, and, having secured from the department the desired favor, for- warded directly the requisite papers, which reached Ludlow Center on the afternoon of the Centennial day. An announcement of the fact in the evening was the episode to which reference is made. And every one wondered why the institution had not before been established.


THE CENTENNIAL


AFTERPAST


There were many Ludlow people, who, from their aching limbs and wearied frames, the next morning seemed to realize that the town was upon its second century. Yet bright and early came the helpers to aid in clearing away the outward vestiges of the unique celebration. So faithfully did the parties interested labor, that in two days a stran- ger would have failed to discover signs of the gathering anywhere about the green. The committee met once or twice to look over accounts and pass resolutions of thanks, and then all was seemingly as before.


And yet not entirely so. The old town seemed to have dreamed a dream, and awoke to new life. The testimonials and encomiums coming from all sources seemed at the same time to encourage and incite the citizens to activity and awaken the feeling of corporate pride. The comments of the press, subjoined, awakened much interest in the town and out of it.


OPINIONS OF THE PRESS


FROM THE SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN


Ludlow's history is that of a staunch puritanic town, while her tra- ditions, though they seldom reach out into the great workl beyond her own borders, are yet replete with the deeds of good men and true, and rich beyond most towns hereabouts in the striking individualities which they preserve. The sentiment and flavor of the anniversary this week were rich indeed. Few towns there are in the State that have kept so purely and quaintly the New England spirit of twenty-five and even fifty years ago, and none in this immediate region, certainly, have so completely ignored and kept at bay the restive railroad spirit of these latter days.


Alternating sunshine and rain were vouchsafed to Ludlow for her Centennial day, but she had resolved to celebrate the occasion with unetion, and so she did, in spite of wind and beating rain. The event as it culminated was a notable one in various ways.


568


HISTORY OF LUDLOW


FROM THE SPRINGFILD UNION


In spite of a drizzling rain this morning, sufficient to dampen the enthusiasm of any less sturdy community, this has been a proud day for old Ludlow. It is quite safe to say that no such ingathering of her sons and daughters had been seen since the town began its cor- porate existence one hundred years ago. Like children assembling under the old family roof-tree for the annual Thanksgiving festival. they have assembled to celebrate this centennial day of thanksgiving and praise. The figure is not inapt, for in a rural town like this every- body knows everybody else, and the community, with few distraction- of any sort, becomes homogeneous to an extent impossible in a city, or even in a bustling village, until its population is, in a notable degree, as one family.


The dinner was one of many manifestations of the splendid, open- hearted hospitality which characterized the whole proceedings, and is indeed characteristic of the people of the whole town. Although the appetites of the multitude had a very keen edge from long waiting, the supplies were so abundant that if anybody went away hungry it was his own fault. It was an absolutely democratic gathering. Every man, woman, and child in the town was freely invited, and was for the day a guest equally with those from abroad.


The whole celebration, from beginning to end, was a success. All who had a share in the large amount of work necessarily involved in such an undertaking, are entitled to credit and commendation. The celebration was, as the Declaration of Independence asserted the gov- ernment ought to be, "by the people and for the people."


FROM THE PALMER JOURNAL


Next Wednesday the people of Ludlow will hold their Centennial Anniversary, and it will be a red-letter day for that town. They will have no heroic deeds to recount, no remarkable deeds to glory over, for the town was always a quiet, unostentatious little republic, its inhab- itants rugged as its hills and as firm in integrity and principle as the foundation upon which they stand. It has never been celebrated for anything besides the longevity of its citizens, and one or two Indian legends. If it has not excelled in brilliant geniuses or celebrated per- sons, it has neither given birth to any great rascals or criminals. Ludlow is a quiet, cosy, hospitable little town a good place to commence life in, to emigrate from, and to return to, at least once in a hundred years.


Lowering skies and drenching showers were not in the programme prepared by the committee of arrangements, but they were provided for by two large tents, pitched in the grove just across the road from


569


THE CENTENNIAL.


the Congregational Church, where more than two thousand persons gathered to join the interesting ceremonies of the occasion, Wednesday. There was a general turn-out among the people of the town, and many came from abroad.


FROM THE NEW ENGLAND HOMESTEAD


The One Hundredth Anniversary of the settlement of Ludlow was celebrated on Wednesday of this week. The attendance was very large; probably not less than two thousand persons were crowded in and about the mammoth tent which was provided for the meeting. The 17th of June was not claimed as the exact anniversary day of the town's settlement, but the month was chosen for the celebration because it was the most favorable season of the year to call together the sons and daughters of the town. The arrangements for this celebration were very complete; the entire company were sumptuously fed by the ladies of the town. It is rare to find a more enterprising community of farmers than those of Ludlow, and they have reason to feel proud of their ancestry, the record of the town, and the manner in which the Centennial was observed.


FROM THE HOLLAND (CONN.) PRESS ( From a letter written by Austin Chapman, of Ellington, Conn.)


On this notable day the old sanctuary was loaded down with crockery and catables of every description, smiling with plenty for the hungry and thirsty, as a covert from the storms which caused many to seek protection under its sheltering roof, through a long and dripping shower. The tubs and pails were well filled with the pure water from the Mineachoag Mountain, with the addition of a little ice. The whole thing passed off silently and agreeably, with a general satisfaction to all.


The following financial exhibit shows just how much was taken from the town's treasury to defray Centennial expenses:


FINANCIAL REPORT


Expenses Committee on Arrangements, $163 52


Expenses Committee on Collation, 141 42


Expenses Committee on Music, 97 50


Expenses Committee on Printing. 37 00

Total, $509 44


To the credit of all concerned be it said that no individual charged a cent for services rendered in making all these arrangements,

HISTORY OF LUDLOW


So universal was the approbation given to the celebration that but trifling opposition was made in the fall meeting. November 3d, to the iction thus recorded, which action was taken upon a motion made by (. 1.

Voted that the Centennial Committee be the committee to carry mit the doings of this meeting.
