this instant July should be the day of raising said frame." This building was near the west corner of Middle and India streets.


May. 25, 1722, the town voted that the frame should be covered and enclosed, and John Sawyer, Benjamin In- gersol and Samuel Cob were appointed to procure the necessary material. It was also voted that the money granted by the General Court shall go towards defraying the expense. In May, 1723, action was taken on Mr. Blaxton's pro- posal to take land "for satisfaction for boards and planks." Four years later


a committee reported that they had laid off the land to Mr. Richard Blax- ton in payment of the same. Early in 1724 a contract was made with Messrs. Thomes, Ingersol, Doughty and Wal- ton, to get the clapboards for the meet- ing-house at four pounds ten shillings per thousand, to be paid out of the town stock. In 1725 it was voted to raise ninety pounds by a rate, for finishing the meeting house on the outside, and discharging the debts of the town. In 1728 it was voted that there be some seats made for the convenience of peo- ple sitting, and some glass made to the meeting-house at Purpooduck. (This house was built of logs on the high ground west of Fort Preble and was also occupied as a garrison.) It was also voted that the meeting-house on this side be finished as far as pulpit and seats are concerned, and that some carpenter do this work with all con- venient speed. In July, the same year, it was voted that the galleries be fin- ished and all "the journey work above in the upper part of the house." And in November it was voted to build a pew for the minister with all conven- ient speed. Jeremiah Riggs was ap- pointed to take care of the meeting- house and look after the pound, for which service he was to receive twenty shillings a year. This service was per- formed by Thomas Haskell in 1730, and


by Peter Walton in 1731. This building . continued to be occupied for religious service until July 20, 1740, on which date public worship was celebrated for the first time in the new meeting-house, on Back street, and in 1742 the town voted "that the old meeting house be for the town use, for a town house for the fu- ture." The interior was remodeled for town and county uses, and in bad trav- eling Mr. Smith sometimes held his meetings in the court room. In 1774 the building was removed to Greely's lane, now Hampshire street, where it was burned in Mowatt's conflagration.


The new meeting-house was not the work of the town, but was built by a few individuals whose names do not appear on record, but who were pub- lic spirited enough to anticipate the future and to provide larger and bet- ter accommodations for the present. They had to encounter severe opposi- tion, but encouraged by the prayers and support of their beloved pastor, they persevered, and in two years after securing a lot had the building ready for use. It was formally offer- ed to the parish at a meeting called for its consideration, on the 17th day of July, 1740. Mr. Smith says, "I was


at prayer," and "A sad opposition there was," but by a small majority the house was accepted and it was "Voted that the new meeting-house on the Neck, be a parish-house forever." The pews on the lower floor were re- served for the proprietors, and Mr. Smith was notified that the parish had accepted the house and "desired him to preach in it the next Lords Day."


The house was not expensive, the exterior remained unfinished until 1756, and it was not painted until after the revolution.


The lot on which the house was built, was a portion of that granted to Samuel Moody in 1720, was purchas- ed of his heirs, and the title, the same under which it is now holden, reads as follows:

APPENDIX.


In 1758 Capt. Alexander Ross pro- cured from England, a bell weighing eight hundred pounds, at a cost of about one hundred and twenty-four pounds; as there was then no tower, the bell was suspended in a frame set up in the yard for the purpose.


In 1760 the building was enlarged in accordance with plans submitted by Simon Gookin in 1753, by sawing it through in the middle and removing each end twelve feet, thereby making room for twenty-eight more pews on the ground floor. This work was done in acceptance of an offer of. prominent citizens, to make the change without cost to the parish, the additional pews to be their compen-


sation. At the same time a tower for the bell was raised at the west end of the building, porches built over the east and south entrances, and June 26, 1761, Mr. Smith says: "Our people raised the spire of the steeple; I prayed with them."


The original proposal to enlarge the meeting-house has been carefully pre- served, and this interesting relic is neatly framed and now adorns the walls of the Parish House. It reads as follows:


"To the Committee appointed for calling meetings in the First Parish in the town of Falmouth.


Gent's. Whereas sundry persons in


the First Parish of Falmouth are destitute of pews in the meeting-house, and are thereby, they and their fall- ily's, very much incommoded, therefore think it needful to have it inserted in the warning for the annual parish meeting, to get liberty of the Parish to have the s'd meeting-house lengthen- ed 24 feet. And in case the s'd Parish will agree to it, (or of the old ones in case every person now owning pews chooses to keep the same place,) and allow us the subscribers the property of


the new pews, that will be made by the alterations afores'd. We bind and oblige ourselves to perfect and finish the s'd alterations and to leave the s'd meeting-house in as good order as it is when we begin s'd alterations.

The familiar picture of the ancient structure represents its appearance subsequent to the alterations com- menced in 1760; divest it of tower and porches and reduce its length by about one quarter will make the plan of the original building.

APPENDIX.


Mr. William Goold, in his "Portland in the Past" gives an interesting descrip- tion of the building, from personal recollection. The arrangement for seating the congregation prior to its re- construction is not certainly known, but we may infer that the wall pews were not disturbed, and that the addi- tions involved only a rearrangement of the pews in the body of


the house. Two plans of the ground floor have been preserved, both of which are here reproduced. The one bearing date 1753 is most likely the one submitted by Mr. Gookin and was probably modified in construction as shown in the plan of a subsequent date. These plans are made especially interesting by naming the pew holders.


In its later days this memorable build- ing was sometimes called "The Old Jerusalem," and under that expressive appellation is often mentioned in dog- gerel by the wits of the time, the re- frain of one song being:


"How we'll ba,


Fa, sol, la,


In the Old Jerusalem;


We'll have no qualms in singing psalms, In the Old Jerusalem."

TRAINING SOLDIERS IN FAL-


MOUTH.


The following list of training soldiers in the town of Falmouth is supplied by Mr. Nathan Goold.


The colonial law required that all male persons from sixteen years of age to sixty, other than such as are herein- after excepted shall bear arms and be always provided with a well fixed fire- lock musket, of musket or bastard bore, a knapsack, a collar with twelve bando- leers, or cartouche box, one pound of good powder, twenty bullets fit for his gun, and twelve flints, a good sword or cutlass, a worm and priming wire fit for his gun.


The persons hereafter named were ex- empted from all trainings, viz: "the members of the council, the representa- tives for the time being, the secretary, justices of the peace, those exempted by college charter,masters of art,ministers, elders and deacons of churches, sher- iffs, allowed physicians, or surgeons, and profest school masters, all such as have had commissions and served as field of- ficers, or captains, lieutenants, or en- signs, coroners, treasurers, attorney- general, deputy sheriffs, clerks courts, constables, constant ferrymen, and one miller to each grist mill, rev- enue officers, masters of vessels of thir- ty tons and upwards, herdsmen, lame persons, Indians and negroes."
