Norwood, Esq., of Brooks. Veterans of the War of 1861 were seated on the stage, and short talks were given by Comrades Crockett, Rose, and Rev. Streeter. One of the most pleasing features of the program was the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner" by Miss Edith Hobbs, and the chorus by the students of Brooks High School. The cheering of "America" by the students aroused the loyalty of everyone. Brooks' band of twenty pieces furnished music for the meeting. The following were appointed Brooks members of the Local Committee on Public Safety :-

All of the women of the community were most active in this work, and through the efforts of the Brooks branch entertainments were held to raise funds for the various purposes, which were at all times liberally patronized. The volume of work produced by the local branch was commended by the State chairman.

SKETCHES OF BROOKS HISTORY
The Post Office at Brooks Village has always been located at a place convenient for the citizens. In the early period the office was maintained at the residence of the Postmaster, and at that time it was not unusual, during matters of public importance, for the citizens to gather at the Post Office and read one copy of a newspaper which was published at Portsmouth, N. H. For many years now, however. the Post Office of Brooks has been at or near Brooks Corner.
A building erected by S. V. R. Huxford was occupied in part as a store and in part as a post office during the period that James S. Huxford was Postmaster.
During the term of office of Albert R. Kilgore, he occupied in part the building now Albert R. Pelley's drug store, and for a time the Old Mason Block was used in part as a Post Office to 1908.
Charles E. Lane, in September, 1910, erected a building which was the home of the Post Office until 1917, when the building was des- troyed by fire.
Albert B. Payson then erected a building on the corner, and this was occupied as a post office until it was destroyed by fire in 1925. The present location of the Post Office is near the Congregational church in a building formerly owned and occupied by the Farmers Union-the building having been moved across the street. Brooks Postmasters have always been chosen from the influential and repre- sentative men of the community. On September 8, 1851, a Post Office was established at South Brooks, and only two postmasters served there during the time of its operation. John Lane served from the date of estabishment until November 7. 1857; and Isaac G. Reynolds served from that date until the time of the discontinuance on Septem- ber 30, 1902, when the Rural Free Delivery service was established.
The first driver on Route 1 was Albert B. Payson, who resigned about 1907, and was succeeded by William C. Austin. Routes 2, 3. and 4 were established October 15, 1903, with Herbert J. Hamlin. driver on No. 2; Wendall S. Reynolds on No. 3; and Joseph Ernest Stimpson on No. 4. On the death of Wendall S. Reynolds, in 1907, route No. 3 was taken over by Edwin H. Rose.
The Postmasters at Brooks were as follows :- Phineas Ashman served from January 14, 1819 to August 8, 1843; a brief sketch of his life is given under 'Lawyers.' Second postmaster was Woodbury Davis. serving from August S. 1843 to April 11. 1845; a brief sketch of his life is also found under Lawyers.'
