The following extracts from the "Historical Sketch of The Lodge of Edinburgh Defensive Band, No. 151," by A. A. Murry, R. W. M., of Lodge Canongate-Kilwinning, No. 2, will explain somewhat the interest and fraternal feeling which exists be- tween the two lodges referred to above:

"The Defensive Band or Regiment was raised in the time of the American rebellion. In the course of the struggle the numerous privateers of the Americans became dangerously troublesome and not a few of them infested our shores, so that even the shortest coast voyages were accomplished with diffi- culty. Chief among these nautical marauders was the redoubtable Paul Jones, with whose romantic story every schoolboy is now familiar as being for a time the terror of our seaboard population, and the newspapers of the period abound with thrilling stories of escapes, captures, and destruction of ship- ping. Edinburgh, with good reason, was not free from alarm. On one occasion an express galloped into the city with the startling announcement that three ships of war had been seen in the morning taking prizes off Eyemouth, and that very evening the vessels could be seen by the citizens steering slowly up the Firth of Forth. Preparations for re- sistance were pushed on with the greatest vigor. It being evident that the shipping of Leith was threatened, three batteries-two at the citadel and one at Newhaven-were erected in about twelve hours, and mounted with thirty heavy guns, besides carronades and howitzers.

"In addition to this, each of the incorporated trades of Leith applied for a hundred stand of arıns, which were given out from the armory of Edin- burgh Castle. When morning dawned the warships were discovered nearly opposite the port close to the island of Inchkeith. Fortunately, however, the danger was dispelled by a tremendous gale from the southwest, which drove the vessels out to sea. This experience having awakened the citizens of Edinburgh to a sense of insecurity they, to defend themselves, applied successfully to the War Office for permission to raise a regiment of volunteers. It was called the Edinburgh Defensive Band of Volunteers, and paraded in public for the first time on September 22, 1781. Several hundred of the bankers, merchants and professional gentlemen in the city joined the body, which was under the com- mand of the Lord Provost as honorary colonel and Andrew Crosbie as lieutenant-colonel. The regi- ment was kept up until the termination of the war, when the American Colonists gained ~their inde- pendence. In 1782 about fifty of the corps, being Free Masons, applied to the Grand Lodge of Scot- land for a charter, which was granted, authorizing them to meet as a Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons under the protection of the Grand Lodge of Scotland." Hence it will be seen that Paul Jones was indirectly responsible (although in a peculiar manner) for the calling into _xistence of Lodge Edinburgh Defensive Band, No. 151.

Another interesting fact in that the "Ranger," in which Paul Jones sailed as master, was built and fitted out at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, under his supervision. A few years since St. Andrews Lodge, No. 56, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, of Portsmouth, had occasion to relieve a distressed brother Mason of Lodge Edinburgh Defensive Band, No. 151, which led to an interesting correspondence between the two lodges and the exchange of his- torical data. Hence the reason for conferring hon- orary membership on John True Davis, W. M., of St. Andrews Lodge, by Lodge Edinburgh Defensive Band. The incident was also the indirect means of

bringing to light several interesting historical facts hitherto not widely known.

Mr. Davis married, November 24, 1897, Alice Marion, daughter of James and Amanda (Rand) Bassett, of Newmarket, New Hampshire. They have two children : Merle Evelyn, born January 16, 1900, and Philip Bassett, born May 21, 1907. .

(Fourth Family.)

Numerous representatives of this family DAVIS were settled in Essex county, Massachu- setts, at an early date, and their descend- ants are now scattered throughout the Nation, bearing a worthy part in the spread of intelligence and moral development.

(1) John Davis, a yeoman or planter, was among the early residents of Newbury, Massachu- setts, and died there November 12, 1675. He and his wife were members of the Newbury Church in 1674.

(Fifth Family.)

This is the patronymic of one of the

DAVIS Colonial families of Billerica, where the early men of this line were leading citi- zens in the church, and consequently in the affairs of the town.

(I) Joseph Davis removed from Reading to Billerica, Massachusetts, where May 10, 1693, he bought the township lot, which had been John Poulters, and in late years has been known as the I. G. Kimball place, on the north side of Andover street. In 1699 he bought the Fox farm of Mr. Daniel's agent, Thomas Cooper, and there, north of Foxhill, made his home, long known as the Davis place. He was a deacon in the church, and as such was a man of authority. He died September 30, 1747, aged eighty. He married in Billerica, June 18. 1691, Rebecca Patten, daughter of Thomas Patten. She died February 13, 1751. Their children were: Rebecca, Hannah, Joseph, Elizabeth, Benjamin, Mary, Sarah, Susannah, Joshua, Esther and Thomas. (II) Joshua, ninth child and third son of Joseph and Rebecca (Patten) Davis, was born in Billerica, October 20, 1714, and died there January 18, 1777. He was like his father, a man of character and in- fluence and deacon in the church. He married, October 24, 1739, Hannah Jaquith, of Wilmington, who died August 8, 1800. Their children were : Joshua (died young), Hannah, Joshua. Joseph (died young), Rebecca, Joseph, Benjamin, Timothy, Jona- than and William.

(III) Joshua (2), third child and second son of Joshua (I) and Hannah (Jaquith) Davis, was born in Billerica, October 25, 1743, and died probably in 1780, as his name disappears from the tax list at that date. He married, May 25, 1769, Betty Blood, who after his death married Benjamin Baldwin. There is a record of only one child, Betty, born November 12, 1779. It is probable, however, that there was another child, John. born 1774, whose birth does not appear of record in Billerica.

(IV) John Davis was born in Billerica, Massa- chusetts, in 1774, and died in Hooksett, New Hamp- shire, in 1886, aged ninety-two years. He was a cultivator of the soil, and owned an elegant farm of two hundred acres which constituted his home- stead and is now known as the Davis Dairy Farm. In politics he was a Republican. He and his wife were members of the Congregational Church in Manchester as early as 1849. He married Sarah Bassett, and they had eight children: John, Lester, Albert F., Joseph, Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah and Julia.

(V) Albert F., son of John and Sarah (Bassett) Davis, was born in Billerica, Massachusetts,, May II, 1840, and died in Hooksett, January II, 1905. He was educated in the public schools of Man- chester. He came to Hooksett in 1848, settled on bis father's homestead farm and built the elegant man- sion which is now one of the best houses in the town. In politics he was a Republican, and as such was elec- ted and filled the office of selectman, tax collector and member of the school board. He served six years in the last named place, and just before his death had been elected to serve another term. He had been a member of Friendship Lodge, Independ- ent Order of Odd Fellows, of Hooksett, since De- cember, 1876, and was a member of the Daughters of Rebekah. He married in 1862, Adelia A. Bartlett, born in Burlington, Vermont, November 27. 1839. The thirty-ninth anniversary of their wedding was celebrated in such a way as to be a prominent social

feature in Hooksett. Mrs. Davis is the daughter of William Bartlett, and granddaughter of Eben Bart- lett, who was born and died in Jericho, Vermont. He was a farmer, and a member of the Congrega- tional Church. His children were six in number : William, Samuel, Eben, Lorinda, Belle and Cather- ine.

William Bartlett, son of Eben Bartlett, was born in Jericho, January 1, 1809, and died in the same town in 1866. He was a Republican, and a inen- ber of the Congregational Church. He married Mahala White, born in Jericho, October 1, 1809. died at the Davis Home in Hooksett, in 1901. Their children were: Catherine, Mary and Adelia A.

(1) Samuel Davis was a farmer in Kittery, Maine, where he was highly respected and influ- ential in town affairs. During the War of 1812 he was one of the garrison of the fort at Kittery. Soon after his marriage he removed to New Durham, New Hampshire, where his children were born, and where the remainder of his life was spent. He married Abigail, daughter of William Tibbitts. Their chil- dren were: Caroline, Lavina. Edmond. Harriet and Samuel. Caroline married Jeremiah Pinkham. of Farmington, New Hampshire. Lavina married Benjamin Wingate of the same town. Edmond married his second cousin, Betsey Davis. Harriet became the wife of Alfred Trask, of Milton. Samuel is the subject of the next paragraph.

(II) Samuel (2), youngest child of Samuel (I) and Abigail (Tibbitts) Davis, was born in New Durham, New Hampshire, October 22, 1821, and died December 10, 1887. Samuel (I) was a believer in the efficacy of good schooling, and largely through his influence his children were well educated, and taught school. Samuel graduated from Gilmanton Academy. In order to acquire his education he be- gan to work for wages at an early age and at twelve was accustomed to drive a team from New Durham to Portsmouth. His entire early life was a busy one and he did much hard labor before he was twenty-one years old. His father died at that time, and he took the farm and carried it on for the remainder of his life. When about twenty-five years of age he married Caroline Hayes, who was born in Alton, New Hampshire, 1830, and died May 21, 1903, aged seventy-three years. She was the daughter of Joseph and Betsey (Brewster) Hayes, her mother being a sister of John Brewster, who founded the Brewster Free Academy of Wolf- borough. They bad four children: Abbie (died young), Edward (died young), Wilbert S., who is mentioned below : George Albert, born in 1871, who married Louise, daughter of Jonathan and Ariana Hayes.

(III) Wilbert Samuel, third child of Samuel (2) and Caroline (Hayes) Davis, was born in Farming- ton, February 17, 1864. He was brought up on the farm of his grandfather, William Tibbitts, a place which has been in the possession of the Tibbitts family since its progenitor settled and began clear- ing it. He graduated from the New Hampton Literary Institute and Commercial College in 1885, and the funds necessary to pay his expenses through school he earned by canvassing for books and by teaching school. In 1887 he entered Bowdoin Col- lege, graduated from its inedical department in 1891, and began his medical career in Alton soon after- ward. In 1893 he removed to Sanbornville. There he has worked hard, kept in touch with the progress made in his profession, and now has a busy practice which pays him well. Soon after locating in San- bornville he found it necessary to his convenience to have a drug store and proceeded to establish one. which in general appearance and in the amount and
