JOINT RESOLUTION relating to the preservation and publication of portions of the early state and provincial records and other state papers of New Hamp- shire.


Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened :


That His Excellency the Governor be hereby authorized and empowered, with the advice and consent of the Council, to employ some suitable person-and fix his compensation, to be paid out of any money in the treasury not otherwise appropri- ated-to collect, arrange, transcribe, and superintend the publication of such por- tions of the early state and provincial records and other state papers of New Hamp- shire as the Governor may deem proper ; and that eight hundred copies of each volume of the same be printed by the state printer, and distributed as follows : namely, one copy to each city and town in the State, one copy to such of the public libraries in the State as the Governor may designate, fifty copies to the New Hamp- shire Historical Society, and the remainder placed in the custody of the state libra- rian, who is hereby authorized to exchange the same for similar publications by other States.


Approved August 4, 1881.


In accordance with the foregoing resolution, the Governor, with advice of the Council, on the twelfth day of October, 1881, appointed and commissioned ISAAC W. HAMMOND as " Editor and Compiler of State Papers."


EDITOR'S PREFACE.


When Volume XVI. was in press, it was known to the editor that some rolls of soldiers and other important documents relating to the service performed by New Hampshire in the Revolution, of which this State had no duplicates, were on deposit in the Department of State and in the Pension Bureau of the Department of the Interior, at Washington, D. C. The editor had corresponded with the custo- dians thereof, and ascertained that the only feasible method of obtain- . ing copies of such portion of said documents as were of importance was by personal examination, a careful comparison with our printed volumes and then unpublished manuscripts, in order to secure all that were of interest and prevent the expense of duplication. To accom- plish this it was necessary to visit Washington, which the editor had no authority to do at that time.


Subsequent to the issue of that volume, Hon. A. S. Batchellor, of the Executive Council, being one of the committee of the same on the publication of our state papers, called at those departments, and ex- amined said documents sufficiently to become convinced of their value and the importance of obtaining copies for publication. On his return he laid the matter before the Executive Board, and on June 5, 1888, a resolution was passed by the Governor and Council, directing the editor of this work to proceed to Washington and obtain copies of such Revolutionary documents relating to New Hampshire as were not in our state archives, and were of sufficient importance for publication. In accordance with said resolution, he went to the several departments in which said material was deposited, and obtained copies, which are printed in this volume. At all of the departments which he had oc- casion to visit he was courteously received, and all the assistance needed in accomplishing his mission was placed at his disposal. To Gen. James B. Coit, chief of the old war and navy division of the Pension Bureau, the editor is indebted for especial favors.


The documents referred to, and of a portion of which copies were


r


iv


EDITOR'S PREFACE.


procured, are undoubtedly a part of those loaned by this State to the United States secretary of war, in accordance with the resolution of our Legislature passed in 1818. They were probably turned over by him to the commissioner of pensions, and consequently were not in the War Department when this State demanded their return in 1840 ; in answer to which demand a large portion of the loan of 1818 was returned to the state archives.


In the old war and navy division of the Bureau of Pensions are eight manuscript folio volumes of New Hampshire documents relating to the Revolution, a portion being originals, and the remainder copies furnished by the secretary of this State in 1838-1840. The volumes numbered I. to IV., inclusive, contain the monthly returns of the three New Hampshire continental regiments and the regiment of Col. Pierse Long, which was in the continental service at Ticonderoga during a portion of the year 1777. These volumes are undoubtedly a portion of the loan of 1818. As it is probable that we have printed the names of nearly all the men who served in those regiments in Volumes XIV., XV., and XVI., and as the expense of copying them would be consid- erable, the editor did not deem it desirable to procure copies at pres- ent. It is desirable, however, that means be used to procure their re- turn to this State, as they can be no longer of use to the Pension Bureau in settling claims.


Volumes V. and VI. of the series are missing. I was informed that inquiries had been made for them at various departments of the gov- ernment, but without success. This is much to be regretted, as they probably contained documents of great historic value to us, of a sim- ilar character to some found in the four succeeding volumes.


Volumes VII., VIII., IX., and X. contain miscellaneous rolls and documents, which were carefully examined, compared with our printed volumes, copies procured of all that are not contained therein, and printed in this volume.


In the same department I found a quantity of loose papers relat- ing to this State, in packages, of which a large number were original enlistment papers. Of these I did not obtain copies, as I hope the originals will be returned to the State in the near future.


Some copies from the Department of State will be found in this volume.

EDITOR'S PREFACE.


The resolution of 1840, concerning the documents herein mentioned, was as follows :


WHEREAS, By a report of a committee of the Legislature of this State, accepted June 25, 1818, His Excellency William Plumer, then Governor of this State, was permitted to transmit certain books and papers from the secretary's office to the secretary of war, for the purpose of establishing the claims of officers and soldiers, who served in the war of the Revolution, for pensions under the law of Congress passed 1818; and,


WHEREAS, the interest of the people of this State requires that those books and papers should be returned to the secretary's office in this State, therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened :


That the secretary of this State is hereby authorized and directed to demand and receive, from the secretary of war, the books, records, and papers now in the war office or in the pension office, which belong to this State, and deposit the same in the secretary's office in this State.


And be it further resolved, That the Governor of this State cause said papers, or such portions thereof, to be arranged and bound for preservation, as in his judgment the interest of the people of this State may require.


Approved December 23, 1840.


In accordance with the foregoing, a demand was made, and a por- tion of the papers returned. The reason some of them were retained may be explained by presuming that the demand was made upon the secretary of war, and that he forwarded such only as were in his custody.


That a portion of the documents were returned to this State is shown by the following :


Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened :


That the secretary of state be directed to employ some suitable person to arrange and index such Revolutionary documents as are now in the secretary's office, and which in the opinion of the secretary may be of sufficient value to be so arranged, and that the sum of two hundred dollars be appropriated out of any money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, to effect the object of this resolution. .


Approved January 8, 1853.


In accordance with the foregoing, the rolls were placed in volumes without any apparent method or system, so far as the editor could discover when they came into his possession for publication in 1884, which occasioned him the tedious labor of removing them from said volumes, chronologically arranging and inserting them in new volumes prepared for the purpose.

EDITOR'S PREFACE.


It becoming known that some of the documents which were loaned the general government in 1818 had not been returned, the Legislature passed the following resolution :


Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened :


That His Excellency the Governor be and he is hereby authorized to transmit a copy of this resolution to the commissioner of pensions at Washington, and to re- quest him to forward to the secretary of state of New Hampshire, all rolls and documents relating to the military service of the inhabitants of said State, in the Revolution, remaining in the pension office ; to be filed by the secretary in his office, with other records pertaining to the same subject.


Approved July 12, 1856.


Whether the Governor made the request in accordance with the foregoing does not appear, but, according to tradition, he did, and the United States authorities refused to comply with the request.


It is certain, however, that the documents were not returned by virtue of any such request, but still remain in the custody of the com- missioner of pensions. The next Legislature should take action in the matter, with a view of recovering possession of these records and documents, which are no longer of use except for historical purposes.


This volume contains many documents of value relating to the early history of New Hampshire, including the transcripts procured from the English archives by the late John S. Jenness ; also the Revolu- tionary war correspondence of Colonel Bedel, and the vindication of General Sullivan of charges preferred by Major Taylor.


The editor desires to express his acknowledgments to His Excel- lency Charles H. Sawyer, and the Honorable Council, for their appre- ciative interest in the work, as shown by acts which enabled him to procure material that adds largely to the value of the volume; and especially to Hon. A. S. Batchellor, who, as one of the committee on publication, has rendered the editor valuable assistance, and responded promptly to all requests for counsel. Volume XVIII. will contain the miscellaneous papers from 1725 to 1800, some valuable corre- spondence, and other unpublished documents relative to the boundary line controversy, the siege of Louisburg, and other French and Indian wars.
