" Your Petitioners are ready chearfully to pay all their taxes from the time they became inhabitants of their respective Towns and humbly conceive the Con- duet of said Selectmen to be flagrantly unjust & op- pressive and opposed to every principle of Equity.

or that your honors would take such other Order con- cerning the Premises as in your wisdom shall seem meet, and your Petition's as in Duty bound will ever pray. &c

HISTORY OF SPRINGFIELD.

BY CHARLES MCDANIEL.

CHAPTER I.

THIS town, at the time of its being granted to John Fisher, Esq. and fifty-nine others, of Ports- mouth, was in the county of Grafton, afterward Cheshire, now (1885) in Sullivan County, in lati- tude 43º 30', bounded north by Grafton, east by Wilmot and New London, south by Sunapee and New London, and west by Croydon, Grantham and Enfield. It was granted January 3, 1769, by the name of Protectworth. Its first settlement com- menced in 1772, by Israel Clifford, Ebenezer Lov- erin and Timothy Quimby. It was incorporated January 24, 1794, by the name of Springfield. By an act of the General Assembly passed June 20, 1817, a tract of land lying between this town . and Enfield, called " Heath's Gore," was annexed to this town. In the year 1858, after a long-con- tested trial, a portion of the "Gore " was disan- nexed from this town and annexed to the town of Grantham by an act of the Legislature.

CENSUS POPULATION OF SPRINGFIELD .- 1790, 210; 1800, 570; 1810, 814; 1820, 967; 1830, 1192; 1840, 1252; 1850, 1270; 1860, 1021; 1870, 781; 1880, 732. The decrease of the popula- tion between 1850 and 1860 was in part due to the disannextion of the " Gore."

Springfield is thirty-five miles from Concord, and ninety from Boston. Branches of the Sugar and Blackwater Rivers have their sources in this town; the former empties into the Connecticut, the latter into the Merrimack. There are several ponds, viz., Station, Baptist, Star, Gilman and Morgan. In the east part of the town is a granite quarry ; also mica mines abound in several sections, and were worked to some extent in 1840 to 1845, by

Bowers, of Acworth. Since then several companies have been formed, among which the Mountain Mica Company and the Globe Mica Company are perhaps the most prominent. The land is rough and stony, but is adapted to the raising of potatoes, corn, oats and barley ; and even thirty bushels of wheat to the acre have been produced. In the spring of the year the leading industry is the making of maple sugar and syrup, tons of which are annually manufactured, being of a very supe- rior quality. During the past few years many labor-saving and improved machines and agricul- tural implements have been bought by the farmers and are now in general use through the town. Springfield and Grantham established a Union Fair in the year 1880, and have since holden one annually. This has served to act as a stimulus to the cause of agriculture. At the last fair one member exhibited two hundred and ten different varieties of apples, and another member gathered over one thousand bushels. Improved breeds of cattle, horses, sheep and swine are now quite com- monly owned. Better varieties of grain and vege- tables, with the raising of apples, grapes and small fruits, show that the farmers are alive and active in their calling; while the profusion of flowers seen indicates plainly that the beautiful is being blended with the useful.
