making an average of more than 81 years to each. The oldest native of the town now residing here, was born in the year 1742. So prompt was this. town in furnishing men for the military service of the United States that previous to the first of April 1777, 120 persons had engaged, of whom were 2 colo- nels, 1 major, 5 captains, and 9 subaltern officers.

" AMONOOSUCK, an Indian name given to two rivers in N. Hampshire : the one is called Upper Amonoosuck, passing through a tract of excellent meadow. It rises near the N. end of the White Hills, runs northerly about 15 miles, where is a carrying place of about 3 miles to Amariscoggin river. From thence the river runs S. W. and W. nearly 18 miles, and empties into the Connecti- cut at Northumberland, near the Upper Coos. The other is called Great or Lower Am- onoosuck, which rises on the west side of the White Mountains. It falls into the Connecticut just above- the town of Haverhill, in Lower Coos, by a mouth 100 yards wide. About 2 miles from its mouth it receives Wild Amon-


Franconia and Lincoln Moun- tains. Two or three hours rain raises the water in this last men- tioned river several feet, and occasions a current so furious

as to put in motion stones of a foot in diameter, but its vio- lence soon subsides."(M.Gaz.)


ANDROSCOGGIN, or AMER- ISCOGGIN RIVER, has its sourc- es 35 miles N. of Errol in this state and N. of latitude 45°. Its most northerly branch is called Margalloway. Its course is S. for nearly 30 miles. This river enters the state near the S. E. corner of the second grant to Dartmouth college, where it also receives Dead river, passing thence through Wentworth's Location into Er .. rol where it mingles with the . impelled by the force of the de- waters flowing from Lake Um- bagog, about one mile from its outlet. From this juncture the confluent stream bears the name of Androscoggin. . Its course is S. till it approaches near to the White Mountains, from which it receives Moose and Peabody rivers, entering the District of Maine N. of Mount Moriah. It then turns to the E. and then to the S. E., in which course through a fer- tile country it passes within two miles of the sea-coast, and then turning N. runs over Pejepscot or Brunswick-falls into Merry- Meeting-Bay, a few miles from Bowdoin college, and forms a junction with the Kennebeck,20 miles from the sea. In its course through Paulsburgh and Mains- borough it passes within 2 or 3 miles of the Upper Amonoo- suck river.


" AMUSKEAG FALLS, in N. Hampshire, are on Merrimack


river, 16 miles below the ford, and 7 below Hookset Falls. It consists of three pitches, one be- low the other, so that the water falls about 48 feet 3 inches in the course of half a mile. The second pitch, which may be seen from the roads on the W. side is truly majestic. In the middle of the upper part of the fall, is a high rocky island, on the top of which, are a number of pits, made exactly round, like barrels or hogsheads, some of which are capable of holding several tons ; formed by the cir- cular motion of small stones, scending water. At the foot of the rapids, half a mile below the principal fall, is a bridge, 556 feet in length, and 20 in breadth, consisting of 2000 tons of timber, and made passable for travellers 57 days after it was begun." (M. Gaz.) " A canal has been formed around these falls, through which boats pass with ease and safety. Prior to 1670, these falls were much visited by the aborigines. The sachem Wonolanset resided here. The son of Wonolanset, engaged in hunting here about the middle of March, discover- ed 15 Indians on the other side who called to him in an un- known language, upon which he fled, while they discharged nearly 30 muskets at him with- out effect."

ed N. W. by New Chester, N. E. by Merrimack river which disunites it from Sanbornton,S. E. by Salisbury, and S. W. by Wilmot with an area of 29,883 acres. It has several ponds of water, the largest of which is Chance pond, in extent 230 rods and 130 in width. Black Wa- ter, a branch of Contoocook river, flows through the S. W. part of this town. Ragged mountain is partly in this town, the N. line of both town and county passing over its summit. The 4th New-Hampshire turn- pike leads through the S. W. part of Andover where Grafton turnpike meets it. Its soil is of almost every variety, for the most part broken and stony, but generally good, producing good crops of grain andEnglish grass. On the Pemigawasset and Black rivers are excellent tracts of intervale land. Rev. J. Babcock was ordained here


1782. Here are a meeting- house, 10school-houses,2 grain- mills, 6 saw-mills, 1 mill for dressing cloth, 1 carding-ma- chine, and 5 trading stores. Here were wintered last season 4000 sheep. Agreeably to a bill of mortality furnished by Rev. J. B. there have died in Ando- ver since the year 1782, under 70 years of age, 287 persons, over 70, 18 persons, over 80, 15, over 90, 2. J.B. .

Gregg's pond 400 rods long and 150 wide, lies in the S. part of the town. Its waters fall into Contoocook river. The soil of Antrim dis- plays great inequality of sur- face, but is generally produc- tive. This town annually win- ters about 2000 sheep, and cat- tle in proportion. The second N. H. turnpike bisects the N. angle of Antrim. Reverend J. M. Whiton is their minister. Here are a meeting-house, 4 grain-mills, 4 saw-mills, 2 mills for dressing cloth, 1 carding- machine, and 3 trading stores. In 1813, 45 persons died of the prevailing fever.


ASHUELOT or ASHWILLET RIVER has a number of branches, the most remote of which is S. of Sunapee moun- tain in the township of Goshen, thence running S. through Al- stead, Marlow, Washington, Stoddard, &c. to Swansey, where it joins with a large stream of water from Keene, another from the S. line of the state, &c. Below Winchester it runs W. by N. and at length empties into Connecticut river in the lower part of Hinsdale.

N.E.by Plaistow, S. by Haver- hill, (Mass.) and W. by Salem. Atkinson was formerly a part of Haverhill, separated from it by the state line of demarca- tion. Its soil is prolific, and its situation highly pleasant. It is 30 miles from the mari- time town of Portsmouth, and has an academy which was founded in 1789, by Hon. Nathaniel Peabody of Exeter, who endowed it with 1000 a- cres of land. John Vose, A.M. is the preceptor. Here are a handsome congregational meet- ing-house, 1 grain-mill, and 1 saw-mill. " In this township is a large meadow wherein is an island of 6 or 7 acres, which was formerly loaded with val- uable pine timber and other forest wood. When the mea- dow is overflowed, by means of an artificial dam, this island rises with the water, which is sometimes 6 feet. In a pond in the middle of the island, there have been fish, which, when the meadow has been overflowed have appeared there, when the water has been drawn off, and the island settled to its usual place. The pond is now almost covered with verdure. In it a pole 50 feet long has disappeared, without finding bottom." (Morse Gaz.)

Cattle and sheep are raised here in large numbers. In 1814, were wintered here 5,162 sheep. Chrystal spar, plum- bago, or black lead, iron ore, alum, and vitriol are found here. On the S.E. side of the town is a cave commonly call- ed the Bear's Den. Its mouth is 18 inches wide. The first course is an angle of descent of about 20 degrees, then press- ing through a narrow passage of about 4 feet in length and descending the same track a- bout 9 feet, you enter an apartment 21 feet in length, 3} in width, and 12 in height, in which you find a natural table 2 feet square,smooth and level, and about high enough to stand and write upon. Stepping up a few feet you then enter an- other room, 16 feet long, 4 wide, and 10 in height, encir- cled on each side by a regular wall of stone. The rocks form- ing the bottom of this cave so exactly correspond with the roof, that one needs no further evidence that they were once united. About a mile S. W. from this spot, on the margin of a pond, is a rock of 150 per- pendicular feet above the face of the water. S.B.

Libbey pursued and discovered them cooking their breakfast at a place ever since called Break- fast Hill. The Indians were on the furthermost side of the hill and had placed their cap- tives between themselves and the summit, that, in case of an attack, they might first receive the fire. Lieut. Libbey urged to go round the hill and come up- on them below and cut off their retreat, but the Capt. fearing in that case they would kill the prisoners, rushed upon them from the top of the hill, by which means he retook the cap- tives and plunder, but the In- dians escaped.
