HON. JOHN C. CHAMBERLAIN.
JOHN CURTIS CHAMBERLAIN, in the first quarter of the present cen- tury, was a distinguished name among the members of the bar, in New Hampshire ; and it is a matter of regret, that the facts, preserved, re- lating to his legal and political career are not more numerous and sat- isfactory. A few of his contemporaries, who knew him in his best days, survive; but their recollections of him are of two general a nature to supply the materials desirable for biography.
Hon. John Curtis Chamberlain was the son of Deacon John and Mrs. Mary Curtis Chamberlain, and was born in Worcester, Mass., June 5th, 1772. His parents were not only respectable, but were held in
299
CHAMBERLAIN.
high estimation, as will be evident from the following obituary notice of them published on the death of Mrs. Chamberlain, Feb. 26th, 1818.
"We seldom record the death of those more generally, or justly re- spected through life for their amiable, and Christian virtues ; or more sincerely lamented at death than this venerable pair. In every rela- tion they sustained, they filled up the measure of their duty. As pro- fessors of religion, they were distinguished for their piety, and zeal ; and in " the charities of home and neighborhood" have seldom been excelled. They have left a numerous circle of friends and acquaint- ance, to whom their lives and conversation are an example worthy of imitation, as well as the ground of pleasing confidence that they have entered into the joys of their Lord." Deacon Chamberlain died May, 31st, 1813. His age was 68 .* That of his wife was 70 years.
John C. Chamberlain graduated at Harvard College, in 1793, and was a classmate of Frederic A. Sumner, and Judge Caleb Ellis, after- wards of Claremont. On completing his Collegiate course, he immedi- ately entered his name, as a student of law, in the office of Hon. Ben- jamin West, of Charlestown, N. H., and on being admitted to the prac- tice of his profession, in 1796, established himself at first in Alstead in the same state; in which place he remained in successful business, till 1804, when he removed to Charlestown, to become the law- partner of Mr. West, with whom he continued till 1817, in which year Mr. West died. After the decease of his distinguished partner, he remain- ed in Charlestown in the practice of his profession till early in the Spring of 1826, at which time he removed to Honeoye Falls, in Mon- roe County, in the State of New-York. From this place in 1833, he removed to Utica, in the same State, where he died in Nov., 1834.
Mr. Chamberlain was accustomed to decline all offices, connected with the affairs of the town, which in the discharge of the duties be- longing to them, would take him from the regular business of his pro- fession. We do not therefore find his name among the selectmen ; and he was only once (in the year 1818,) Town Representative. He was Moderator in the years, 1808-9-12-13-17-&-21 six times, but had no desire for the office, and only took it as it was urged upon him. In this he imitated the example of his law-partner, Mr. West, who was accustomed to decline all offices which, if accepted, might take him oc- casionally from his professional duties.
*Jacob Chamberlain, the father of Deacon John, and Grandfather of John C., was also Deacon of the same Church in Worcester ; viz. the Old South.

CHAMBERLAIN.
Mr. Chamberlain was elected representative to Congress, in 1809; and served his term with honor to himself and his constituents. It was a time of no inconsiderable excitement in the political history of the nation, as affairs between the United States and Great Britain were assuming a threatening aspect, and that series of events had al- ready commenced, which, ultimately, led to the war of 1812. But his congressional service was short, and the writer is unacquainted with any facts which would lead him to suppose that he had any desire to have it lengthened.
It was the aim of Mr. Chamberlain to attain a high popular stand- ing in his profession. He was, therefore, in his element, when em- ployed as an advocate in cases that particularly interested and excited the public. He then put forth his best efforts ; and it is not too much to say, on such occasions, made his power felt in a manner equalled by few lawyers in the state ; and had his industry been correspondent with his ability, he would probably, as Mr. West had been before him, have been conceded the foremost place at the bar, as an advocate. As it was, his standing was high, but by no means what the diligent im- provement of his powers might have made it.
Sir, said the writer of this article one day, to an aged, intelligent gentleman, who had often seen and heard the subject of this notice in court, will you please give me your impressions of Hon. John C. Chamberlain, as an advocate. "John C. Chamberlain," said he, pausing as if to collect his thoughts, " yes I remember him perfectly. Well, he had a good voice, perhaps I may say, a remarkable voice, ranging from a low to a sufficiently high key, which never in its loud- est tones appeared strained, nor in its softest lost its distinctness ; and over which, in the expression of every variety of sentiment, he had most perfect command. To this, I may add, that his command of lan- guage, was such, that he never hesitated for a word, nor failed to cx- press his ideas in the clearest and most expressive manner. . One enter- ing court, without knowing what was going on, while he was address- ing the jury, might, from his tones, have supposed him talking in an interesting manner, they were so natural, and so different from what we are accustomed to hear in a public speech. When it suited his subject, however, he could employ the loftiest declamation, or bring into requisition, the most withering tones of sarcasm, and be facetious or grave, according to circumstances. There was only one thing, which was a draw-back on hearing him ; and that was, his personal appearance. He never was dressed in any style, and no one ever saw
301
CHAMBERLAIN.
him when some of his garments were not askew. This arose from his fancying, that he should be more popular with the common people, from this negligence, than if, like his law-partner, West, he always went dressed like a gentleman."
Most of the generation, who were old enough to appreciate him in the zenith of his reputation, have passed away. I give the following from the reminiscences of the few that remain. " A Mr. Harlow had made a contract to furnish a person, whose name my informant is un- able to recall, with a certain quantity of brick. The brick were made, and duly delivered, at the specified time and place. But their qual- ity not being satisfactory, payment for them was refused. On this, a suit at law was instituted by Mr. Harlow, in which Chamberlain was employed by the defendant ; and after the usual examination of wit- nesses, took the floor for addressing the jury, and commenced talking; in his usual felicitous manner, to present the case before them, in the most favorable aspect of which the facts would admit. In this way, he went on for a time, when suddenly making an attitude, and changing his whole manner, he exclaimed in his loudest tones, "Gentlemen of the jury, do you know in what way Mr. Harlow makes brick ? If you do not, this is it. He takes a little clay in his hand (suiting the action to the word, and scooping to the floor with his left hand) and pats it a little (drawling sneeringly on the word pats) on one side; then, he turns it over, and parts it (always making the patting motion) on the other sides and ends ; then he looks it over, and says " that's a good brick !" but gentlemen of the jury is that a brick ? Is that a brick which not only the wind can blow through, and the snow or the rain sift through, and a cricket or grashopper crawl through, but which has in it cavities in which a mouse may build his nest, and lay up his winter's store ? Gentlemen, Mr. Harlow may call it a brick, but I must insist upon it, that that is not its proper name." This whole passage was so graphic and so inimitably delivered, that my infor- mant assures me, that he cannot understand how one who heard it, should ever forget it. A thrill was produced by it through the whole audience.
Another reminiscence of Mr. Chamberlain, in court, has been nar- rated to me as follows. A man in very necessitous circumstances had taken from a wealthy employer who had the character of being some- what miserly and penurious, two pairs of pantaloons, both of which were so worn as to have considerable holes in them in different parts. The larceny was both acknowledged and proved ; and Mr. Chamber-
1

Jain, who was employed on the defence, it was felt, had undertaken a difficult work, if he was to secure the acquittal of the prisoner ; but as the accused had always before maintained a character for honesty, he was not without hope of accomplishing it.
He began by describing the burden of poverty, how sorely it pressed upon a man, especially, one with a family, and detailed many of the difficult situations in which such an one was often placed ; and how his difficulties were often enhanced by others, by their witholding from him his just dues ; (It had been shown in the evidence that several dollars of back pay or money due to the alleged criminal had been unreasonably witheld from him by his employer,) and how wrong such a course was ; and to what temptations it might lead ; and how weak human nature might be under their fearful pressure " and in this strain he continued, till he had fully secured the sympathy of his audience, when stretching out his hand to the pantaloons which were in court, he held up the most ragged pair, in such a manner as to make the rents and holes in them most conspicuous, and without ut- tering a word, turned entirely round ; thus exhibiting them to all in the court room. Then, with a voice apparently half choked with emotion, turning to the jury he said. "Gentlemen these are the rags, that it is alleged that the prisoner at the bar has taken ; and, driven to it by the injustice of his employer, it may be he did take them. But why did he take more than one pair ? Why, because the first were so worthless as to answer no purpose ; he, therefore, took the second to cover up the rents and rags of the first." Then, grabbing both pairs and throwing them from him with a look of the most perfect disdain and contempt, he exclaimed " Away with the dirty things, and away with that man who could accuse a poor neighbor of larceny for appro- priating them to his use." The effect was magical, the jury refused a verdict of guilty and the accused was allowed to return to his family.
But the case in which Mr. Chamberlain was most in his element was that of the State against George Ryan, at the May term of the court, in Charlestown. in 1811. Ryan was a very fine looking young Irishman who in connection with his attractive personal appearance, possessed not only considerable intelligence, but had, also, that natural grace and ease which enabled him to assume in society the manners of a gentleman. He was fond of display, but was one of the unfortu- nate ones whose money went as fast as he could get it and a httie faster, and who consequently on any occasion on which he wished to make a show was without the requisites with which to make it. This
303
CHAMBERLAIN.
love of show, combined with his spendthrift habits, soon produced in his mind their legitimate effect, which was to excite in him such an intense craving for money as to constitute for him a continual incen- tive to get it in any manner he could ; and which finally in an hour of more than ordinary temptation led him to the act for which he was arrainged ; viz., to commit the crime of high-way robbery.
It appears that he got nothing of any amount ; the sum obtained be- ing only a few shillings, and he did not have the good fortune to escape with that, but was known and arrested, and placed in Charlestown jail. Confined there his case excited a very deep and wide-spread sympathy ; a sympathy so strong that the crime, in the view of the public, seemed almost lost and forgotten. As the law was at that time, the penalty of his offense was death. The case too, in its kind, was new in the county. It was the first capital offense that had ever been committed in old Cheshire. The people, therefore, were all excited over it, especially the women, who not only supplied him with the dantiest food, but also showed their regard by furnishing him with a new suit of clothes, that his personal attractions might be appropriately shown off at his trial. Many of the first ladies visited him in prison, and the young ladies, to whom it was not deemed proper to give that privilege, wrote him billets- doux and letters of condolence to encourage him and comfort him in his lonely situation. Thus it was, with an excited public, and that public all in his favor, young Ryan was brought to trial.
Chief Justice Livermore and Judge Steele were on the bench and the Attorney General, Sullivan, was present to conduct the prosecution on the part of the State. The counsel for the prisoner were Chamberlain, Henry Hubbard and Roger Vose. As the evidence that Ryan had committed the crime was incontrovertible, of course, no plea based on the ground of innocence could answer any purpose. As the best, and perhaps the only available course then, for them to pursue, his counsel set up for him the plea of insanity.
The witnesses first called upon the stand were experts who all testified to the effect that the prisoner, so far as they could see, and according to the best of their judgment, was sound in mind. After these had giv- en in their testimony quite a number of non-experts were allowed, by the court, to be brought on the witness stand, and to testify freely. The evidence given in by these was that they had seen and conversed with the prisoner, and that both from his conversation and appearance they had become convinced that he was not sane.
Chamberlain, when the testimony was all in, presented the case for
304
CHAMBERLAIN.
the defense, and his plea on that occasion was considered among the best that he had ever made. The speech was not reported ; very few speech- es were, in those days. But the memory of it lingered in the minds of many who heard it, for years after. Said David Holton to the writer, " I never heard such a speech. The court-house was crowded as full as it could hold, and deeper interest I never saw. Why, there were great strong men there who blubbered like babies ; Old General Morris, of Springfield, among the rest." Said the late Jesse Wheeler, "I heard that speech of John Chamberlain's, and I remember wondering how a man could speak so. It influenced me so much in favor of Ryan that I thought that if they hung him it would be the wickedest deed they could do." Undoubtedly Chamberlain's speech on that occasion pro- duced a powerful effect, but when we consider the state of the public mind we can with difficulty conceive how it should have been otherwise, since we can hardly conceive of circumstances more favorable to the production of an impression than those under which he spoke.
The counsel for the prosecution, after Chamberlain had closed, briefly presented the case for the State, but it seemed very evident to all that his heart was not in what he said, and that he as well as others really wished the prisoner acquitted. The Judge, in his charge to the jury, was careful to mention all the witnesses, by name, who had testified to the insanity of the prisoner and to give such a bearing to the evidence as should make it easy for them to acquit him. The verdict of the jury, based upon his insanity, was " Not guilty" on which Ryan was released and most heartily congratulated by the counsel on both sides, when all returned, well satisfied, to their homes.
In the early part of his professional career Mr. Chamberlain cultivat- ed literature very diligently, and though not a member of what was termed the "Literary Club " occasionally contributed articles to "The Farmers' Museum," which was then the most notable paper in the State. It was during this period that he wrote *"The narrative of the captiv-
* This Pamphlet was republished in Farmer's and Moore's Collections, in 1822, with the following introduction, " In this Number of the Collections we have commenced publishing a narrative of the Captivity of Mrs. Johnson, who was tak- en from Charlestown, in the County of Cheshire, in this state, in the year 1754. The work was written many years since by a gentleman of distinguished literary reputation, and though a work of his early years, contains many just and accu- rate observations on the dangers and hardships of settling a new country, and the cruelties which awaited those who were taken into captivity by the Indians. We have thought it proper to preserve a tract of so much importance, and we pre-

ity of Mrs. Johnson, a pamphlet which had a wide circulation, and which many suppose to have been written by Mrs. Johnson herself. This appears to have been the impression of Rev. Dr. Benjamin Labaree, who in his address, at the dedication of a monument, at Charlestown, to her and others, says, " Her character and deeds create history-her graphic pen records it. That little book, though small, has produced a sensation in the world. It is a book of authority and is quoted by all who have attempted to write the history of Charlestown." That the work de- serves this encomium is acknowledged. It was not, however, written by Mrs. Johnson, though much of its interest is undoubtedly owing to its being a record of her personal experiences.
John C. Chamberlain m. Dec. 29th, 1797, Nancy, (2nd dau. of Hon. John and Prudence (Stevens) Hubbard,) b. in Charlestown, May 4th, 1779. A numerous company attended the wedding, consisting of the connections and acquaintances of the bride and bridegroom. Among others, Thomas Bellows, Esq. was present, from Walpole. The wedding was in the evening and "The ceremony was performed," says one who was present, " by Rev. Dan Foster in a very elegant manner. The par- ty broke up at eleven o'clock, leaving many kind wishes for the happi- ness of the newly married couple."
The children from this marriage were as follows :
I. Mary, b. in Alstead, Feb. 22nd, 1799; d. unmarried, in Albion, N. Y., March 20th, 1859. Mary Chamberlain was a woman of excel- lent education, and fine culture. While residing in Charlestown she opened a select school, and is still remembered by some of her scholars with affectionate gratitude. Mrs. Emily A. Olcott was one of her pupils. Her employment in life was that of a teacher, in which she continued in different places, for over a quarter of a century. She also gathered the first Sabbath School opened in Charlestown, in the summer of 1819; from which time she was either a Sunday School or Bible class teacher, as long as she lived ; II. Nancy Hubbard, b. Feb. 20th, 1801, also at Alstead ; m. Dr. Jacob Adams, of Charlestown, N. H., Apr. 8th, 1823. Dr. Adams removed to Utica. N. Y., in 1824, and died in Mobile, Ala- bama, whither he had gone for his health, in 1826. By this marriage there was one child, Mary C. Adams, who died in Albion, N. Y., in 1841, aged 19 years. The widow married in May, 1832, Dr. D. V. Bradford, of Utica, N. Y., and had one child, a daughter, now (1874, Dec.) the

On graduating he entered the office of his uncle, the late Henry Hubbard, of Charlestown, N. H., where he continued till 1827, when he was admitted to practice in the courts of the State. He soon after removed to Albion, N. Y., where he opened a law office and remain- ed, in successful practice till 1844. Says a correspondent from Albion, " During his residence here he was considered one of the most successful lawyers in Western New York, and filled several prominent offices, both in the County and State. In 1844 he became a resident of Iroquois County, Ill., and there resuming the practice of his profession, filled the office of County Judge for three successive terms. Eventually, becoming inter- ested in real estate, he became a large land proprietor, and died, in Wat- seka, Ill., Dec., 1866. He was twice married ; m., 1st, in May, 1834; m. 2nd, in Watseka, in 1855. There was no issue by the first marriage ; by the second he had one child, now (1874) aged 19, residing in Watse- ka; IV. Hubbard, b. Oct. 6th, 1806 ; d. Dec. 13th, 1809; V. Wil- liam, b. March 13th, 1809 ; lives in Albion, N. Y. : unmarried. He has many pleasant recollections of his early life in Charlestown, and it is to him that I am indebted for the principal facts relating to the Chamberlain family; VI. Elizabeth Jane, b. Oct. 18th, 1811; m., Nov., 1836, James W. Lawrence, of Millville, N. Y., and died in Feb. 1868. The children of this marriage were 1. John, b. Dec. 21st, 1838; d. Sept. 17th, 1850; 2.

Miss Dolly Chamberlain, a sister of Hon. John C., resided for some time in Charlestown. Levi Chamberlain also studied law in the office of his brother here, and became afterwards a respectable lawyer and useful citizen in Keene, N. H.
SAMUEL N. CHAMBERLAIN (not connected with the above family) was born in Dudley, Mass., about 1777; died at Glens Falls, N. Y. aged 67 ; buried at Edgecomb's Corner, Galway, N. Y. His father, who was a soldier in the War of the Revolution, at the time the American Army was most destitute, sold his farm in Dudley, and ap- plied the funds for the relief of the soldiers.
