HISTORY OF COOS COUNTY.
CONCLUSION.
In the preceding pages I have endeavored to present, as concisely as possible, and as accurately as the sources of information at command would allow, a record of the several organizations raised in the state, a list of the men who periled life and all its attractions to serve and save the country in its time of danger, and a summary of the forces raised, with an analysis of the loss by casualty and other causes, whereby these men are accounted for. Imperfect as this record is, and issued doubtingly, remembering the sensitive criticism that may properly follow each error of omission or commission in recording a soldier's service or valor, and remembering also the risk it runs in passing through the press, from type- setters and proof-readers unfamiliar with the writer's chirography, or the family names of the region, the best has been done that circumstances permitted, and this chapter is dedicated in Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty to the good men living, and the memory of the good men dead, who illus- trated their valor and their worth in responding to the call to arms.
No matter where or how their service was spent, how brief or how long their term of enlistment, the test of it all was the willingness to volunteer and the actual performance of that act. To obey orders was all that remained to them, the responsibility of events was elsewhere. Theirs was the soldierly duty of devotion and obedience, and so all are alike entitled to the respect and gratitude that should follow noble and hazardous en- deavor honestly undertaken and service well performed.
It was the marvel of the time that the armies of the Union should be absorbed at the close of the war, into the body of the people without dis- turbance, and the transformation from the soldier to the citizen became so complete as to leave no trace. This is the crowning glory of the re- public. The citizen is a soldier in time of war, and the soldier is a citizen in time of peace.
Under the guise of the farmer, the mechanic, the merchant, the pro- fessional man, the laborer, the soldiers of Coos who in perilous times followed the drum-beat in scenes of high endeavor, have steadily since the war been pursuing the paths of honest toil. They have been the best of citizens, because in their own persons they tried and solved the great problem of the worth of the government they defended, saved and now enjoy, and it is proper that the diminishing column that remains should receive the respect of each community wherein its members are exem- plary, modest, industrious and worthy citizens.
Green be your graves, oh comrades, who have gone before! Fresh and sweet be the memories that float from the past; and hallowed be the love that bears, and shall bear you ever in tender remembrance! Dire was the conflict, but your reveries are unbroken, and ye rest well; the eternal

mountains guard your slumbers and the singing waters chant your even'- song! Long and weary was the way, but ye laid down beside the path of duty, and generations yet unborn, following the beautiful custom of Memorial Day, shall, as the gloom of winter melts into the smile of spring. spread your graves with vernal tributes and perpetuate the grand idea, that the loftiest conception of patriotism, the truest test of manhood, is that which impels the citizen in the hour of its peril, to offer his life for the state.
Let us keep the nation worthy the sacrifices that preserved its life. so that they may not have been made in vain, and that the country, thus rescued, may escape the dangers of faction, and remain through the dis- tant future, the refuge of the oppressed, the home of an enlightened and happy people.
CHAPTER XVIII.
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
ANCASTER-Court Houses, Jails, etc .- In the interval between the organization of the county and the building of the original court house, the courts were held in the hall of Col. John Willson's store, which stood at the north end of Main street, and was also occupied by North Star Lodge of Masons. At this time a room was prepared to serve for a jail, and Judge William Lovejoy was the first jailer. The first court-house was built in 1806, on the south west corner of Main and Bridge streets. It was a square wooden building of one room, with a flat roof. The juries used Willson's hall. The house was heated by an inverted potash kettle, with a hole in the bottom, upon an arch of brick, with a flaring stove-pipe to carry away the smoke. The " Old Meeting House " being excessively coll, the funerals in winter were generally held in the court-house. After a while a bell was procured to announce the opening of court. This was suspended from a gallows of two poles, and has quite a history. It was originally brought to the county by " Guinea " Smith, and placed on a tripod of poles, near his factory at Colebrook. After the factory was burned, Francis Wilson bought the bell and brought it to Lancaster. When no longer required at the court-house, it was used at the old academy, and afterward at the machine shop of Thompson, Williams & Co.
The old jail was built in 1806, near where the present one stands, and the site for both jail and court-house was given by Artemas Wilder. This
196

jail was built of hewn elm logs, firmly bolted. It had an upper and lower room, with massive wooden doors. For years Coos and the " border " was a favorite resort of desperadoes and counterfeiters, with some of whom, atter imprisonment, the keepers had serious struggles, and the large rings in the floor, and the heavy iron chains, used to connect them with the fetters of the prisoners, were in frequent use. This jail was burned January 9, 1858, and the present stone one erected soon after.
The old court-house became antiquated and too small, yet there was hesitation regarding the building a new one until Judge Livermore, in 1831, peremptorily ordered the erection of a new one, and specified the plan. In 1868, when this court-house was demolished, one of the workmen found in the arch of the eastern gable. securely fastened to the building, a pack- age which contained a copy each of " The New Hampshire Patriot " and the Haverhill "Democratic Republican," and the following statement written by Richard Eastman :-
"This building was erected for holding the Courts in the County of Coos, State of New Hampshire. Commenced June 7, 1831, and will probably be completed by October 1, of the same year, expense about $1,800. The stone and brick work was undertaken by Gen. John Willson and Lieut. Joseph Cady. The stone work cut and hammered by Elisha Cushman and William Holmes. Master workman of the brick work, Capt. Peter Merrill. Assistant workmen, William Page, Zadock Cady, Joseph C. Cady, Calvin Willard, Jonathan W. Willard. Tenders, Josiah G. Hobart, Samuel Banfield, William W. Moore. William Horn, Franklin Savage. The carpenters' work done under the superintendence of William Moody. The joiners' work done by Richard Eastman, Elijah D. Twombly, Artemas Lovejoy. The committee who superintended the whole building of said house were John W. Weeks, Thomas Carlisle and Richard Eastman."
In 1853-54 a county building was erected for the county offices on the bank of Israel's river near the grist-mill. This was shored and braced up for many years to keep it from falling into the river. Both this and the court-house required costly and extensive repairs; even with these they would not be what the progress of the county demanded, and, in 1868, it was voted "to demolish the county building, and enlarge and re- pair the court-house to accommodate the courts and the county offices." The foundation walls, however, were found to be unsafe, and, at last, an entirely new building was decided upon. This was brick, two stories high, 40x70 feet in size, surmounted by a cupola and bell, and completed in May, 1869. The offices of the probate judge and register of deeds and two jury rooms were on the ground floor. The second story contained a high and well-ventilated court-room of ample proportions, and the offices of the county treasurer and commissioners. Its original cost was about $17,000, but alterations and improvements brought the whole expense of construction up to nearly $30,000. The building was an ornament to Lancaster, and a source of pride to the people of the entire county. The county commissioners, Gen. A. J. Congdon, Seneca S. Merrill and
197
PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
John C. Leighton, who had charge of its erection, well discharged their trust.
In 1885 the county delegation voted to rebuild the vaults, which were not considered safe depositories of the records. These were completed at a cost of $3,000 in 1886. To hasten their drying, stoves had been placed in them, and fires were maintained for some days. On the night of Novem- ber 4, 1886. workmen were engaged until midnight in placing steam-heat- ing apparatus into the building. After their departure M. A. Hastings, clerk of the court, J. W. Flanders, register of probate, and C. A. Cleave- land, register of deeds, made an examination of the building and every- thing appeared safe; but between two and three in the morning the court- house was discovered in flames. The loss was complete; building, records, and everything connected therewith were destroyed, only a few half- charred leaves remaining of the immense number of records which told the history of the county for eighty-two years. Hon. W. S. Ladd had his law office in the court-house, and all his law papers and documents, to- gether with a library valued at about $9,000, were consumed.
A county convention met at the town hall of Lancaster December 9. 1886, and organized to consider the question of rebuilding the court-house. An effort was made to delay action so that the people might vote on the matter of removal of the county seat from Lancaster. The thriving town of Berlin offered to build a court-house equally as good as the one destroyed, by contributions of its citizens, if the county seat was removed thither. Groveton presented its claims and a liberal subscription paper, but the convention adopted this resolution by a vote of thirteen to six :--
"Resolved, That the sum of fifteen thousand dollars is hereby appropriated to rebuild the court- house and county offices, on the present court-house site, in Lancaster village, and that any part of said sum not expended on the completion of said building be covered back into the county treasury."
The convention also instructed the county commissioners to immedi- ately proceed to rebuild the court-house building. Various plans were submitted; finally one presented by a Boston architect was accepted: Mead. Mason & Co, of Concord, awarded the contract for erecting the court- house, and it is now in process of construction. It will cost over $17,000. and will be the best public edifice in this section of the state. It is 50x70 feet, with a six foot projection on each side, making the front end sixty- six feet, three stories high, and a cupola and spire, running up nearly 100 feet from the foundation. Underneath the whole is a basement. wherein is to be located the steam boiler, water closets, coal bins. etc. The entire build- ing is to be of brick and granite, and the design is a very handsome one. On the first floor is the registry of deeds, registry of probate, clerk's office, com- missioners' room, grand jury room, and vaults, located about the same as in the old house. In the front and center is the vestibule. 16x26 feet, with two flights of stairs, and a janitor's closet. On the second floor is the court
198

room, 50x50, two stories high, lighted by north, south and west windows. In the front end, over the registers' offices, are the judge's room, lawyers' and consultation rooms, and janitor's room. Over these, in the third story, are two jury rooms, sheriff's room, etc. Lavatories and water closets are on every floor, and conveniently arranged. The building is to be heated by a fifteen-horse power, 100 pounds hydraulic pressure, sectional steam boiler .*
County Alms House .- The question of purchasing a county farm was presented to the county convention in 1862, but that body was not willing to assume any responsibility without instruction, and referred the matter to the people, who defeated it at the town meetings in March, 1863. A re- port prepared in 1861 showed at that date seventy-nine persons receiving aid from the county, and that out of an entire tax of $6,541.72, the sup- port of county paupers called for $5,305.09. The subject of a farm was still agitated, and a county convention called to meet in Lancaster, Janu- ary 19. 1865, to consider and act upon the matter. The question was re- ferred again to the voters, and the final result was the purchase of the beautiful farm of Isaiah H. Pickard. located on the Connecticut river. about one-third of a mile from West Stewartstown, in the town of Stewartstown. The farm contained six hundred acres, with upland, grazing and woodland, a meadow of eighty acres, a sugar orchard of 1,300 trees, and a heavy growth of fine spruce, hemlock, and other lumber trees. There was on the farm a good two-story house, 36x26 feet in size, which was made the basis to the alnis house constructed in 1867. To this farm house an ad- dition was made of a three-story building, eighty feet long and thirty eight feet wide. In this 150 paupers could be accommodated. The price paid for the farm was $7,000; the building and other improvements cost $11,000 more.
The commissioners were fortunate in obtaining Mr. and Mrs. S. G. Hannaford as superintendent and matron. For twenty years they have done most faithful service. The alms house was opened in October, 1867, with nearly sixty-five inmates. Fire escapes have been placed in suitable locations to admit of prompt escape in case of need, while danger from fire is at the minimum, as the heating is done by steam. The farm and alms house are model ones, comprising every thing needed for the comfort of the unfortunate guests, of which there have been at one time as many as 121, and the average during the last ten years about 100. About one thousand dollars is now being expended for the improvement of the reser- voir and sewerage.
