On the following 7th of August this board per- fected its organization by the election of Hon. E. A. Straw as president of the board and Hon. S. N. Bell as clerk.


The ordinance provided that one of these original commissioners should go out of office each year, and that one member should be annually elected in the month of September, for a six-year term, by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.


There had been up to this time, and still continued to be, much diversity of opinion as to which was the best source of supply, and conflicting opinions as to the system of supply and the design of various details of the proposed work. The earnestness with which these matters were publicly discussed and different sources and plans advocated led to the passage of a resolution by the City Councils instructing the commissioners to examine different systems of water-works in different cities, in order that the best, most economical and advantageous mode of supplying the city with water might be adopted.


A majority of the board, complying with the instructions of the Councils, visited several cities in New England, and also Montreal, and carefully noted the peculiarities and effectiveness of different systems of water supply. While at Norwich, Conn., they met Colonel J. T. Fanning, engineer of the water-works then recently completed in Norwich, and engineer also of water-works in several other cities, and invited him to make for them an examination of the sources of water supply available to the city of Manchester, and to report upon the sources and method of supply which he should deem most advisable for the com- missioners to adopt.


In the mean time the commissioners obtained per-

mission to use temporarily a supply of water from the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company's reservoir for fire purposes, and pipes of eight inches diameter were laid from the company's main, on Brook Street, along Chestnut, Pearl, and Pine Streets, to Merrimack Street. This line of pipe was commenced in the autumn of 1871, and completed in the following spring, and immediately filled with water for a fire protection. It included about one and three-eighths miles of pipe and seventeen fire hydrants, and cost $10,141.15.


On completion of the preliminary surveys and re- port, in the autumn of 1871, Colonel Fanning was appointed chief engineer to the Board of Water Com- missioners. The additional surveys, plans and esti- mates necessary for a detailed comparison of all the sources were completed in the spring of 1872, and the results embodied in a report to the commissioners under date of March 1st, and the report contained a general map showing all the sources considered.


The nearest and most ample volume of water being the Merrimack River, early consideration was given to this source. The Merrimack waters could be pumped to a reservoir that might be conveniently lo- cated on the hill east of the State Reform School building, but experiments with the water showed that it must necessarily be filtered when the river was above the ordinary spring level, and that proper fil- tration would require a heavy annual expense for operation, and a considerable expenditure for con- struction of filter-beds of sufficient capacity. The Piscataquog River was examined and carefully studied also. It having been urged by a few of the citizens that some of the small ponds northeasterly of the city would furnish supplies of water, Dorr, Chase, Burn- ham and Stevens' Ponds were thoroughly investigated, and found, by proper computations, to yield entirely inadequate supplies for the immediate needs, irrespec- tive of the future needs of a growing city. At Ma- ple Falls, in the southeastern part of the town of Candia (distant about eight miles from the city hall) were found natural features admitting the construc- tion of a fine storage reservoir of nearly four hundred aeres area, and of considerable mean depth, and hay- ing a water-shed of about ten square miles. This storage reservoir would have been at an elevation of two hundred and twenty-three feet above Elm Street at the city hall, and is the only gravitation source near the city that was found to be worthy of adoption. Sontheasterly of the city lies Lake Massabesic, having an area of nearly two thousand four hundred acres and water-shed of about forty-five square miles. The out- let of the lake is about four miles from the city hall. Analyses of the Massabesic water showed it to be of most excellent quality for domestic and industrial uses. The vegetable organic matter in the water was found to be 1.66 grains, and mineral matter 1.16grains, or a total of 2.82 grains per gallon, equivalent to 4.7 parts in 100,000 parts. The stream flowing from this


lake is known as Cohas Brook, and enters the Merri- mack River at Goffe's Falls.


On Cohas Brook, about one-quarter of a mile below the outlet of the brook, near the old McMurphy mill- site, a dam was located and raised to the level of the water in the lake. This, with the canal below the lake, gave a fall of forty-five feet available for power where the pumping-station was located, near the ter- mination of the canal. In the pumping-station were located two pairs of pumps, of the vertical bucket- plunger class, of combined capacity to pump a maxi- mum of five million gallons of water in twenty-four hours. Two Geyelin-Jouval turbines were placed in the building to drive the pumps, having a combined capacity of two hundred horse-power. A pumping- station was constructed of bricks, with slate roof, to contain this machinery, and attached to the station is a commodious tenement for the attendant in charge of the pumping-station.


A reservoir of about thirteen million gallons ca- pacity was constructed near the church at Manches- ter Centre. The water of the lake is lifted by the pumps one hundred and thirteen feet from the lake to the reservoir, and as the reservoir is elevated one hundred and fifty-two feet above Elm Street at the city hall, the water flows from thence throughout the city by gravity. This reservoir was filled on its com- pletion, near the close of September, 1874, but the pumps had been started early in the previous July, pumping the water through the distribution pipes, with the surplus flowing into the Amoskeag Com- pany's reservoir. The force main from pumps to res- ervoir, eight thousand one hundred and seventy-one feet in length, and supply main, eight thousand four hundred and ten feet in length, from reservoir to Elm Street, are twenty inches in diameter. The entire pipe system contained, at the completion of the original works, at the close of 1874, one hundred and twenty- two thousand and seventy-one feet of pipes, one hun- dred and seventy-two stop valves and two hundred and fifteen public fire hydrants, and seventeen thou- sand six hundred and two feet of small service pipes, laid by the commissioners from the street mains to the property lines for the supply of water consumers.


The cost of constructing the works, including cost of lands, water-rights and preliminary surveys, was $614,009.83. The cost of service pipes, meters and operating expenses during construction of the works was $20,028.75. On the 24th of October, 1874, a public test was made of the water-works by the city Fire Department. During the test sixteen hydrants were brought into simultaneous use, twelve of which were supplying leading hose-streams and four supply- ing steam fire-engines, and thus twenty powerful streams were arching over Elm Street and its loftiest buildings at the same time, presenting in the sunshiny October afternoon a most brilliant and beautiful scene, and strengthening the confidence of the citizens in the capacity and efficiency of their public water supply.

On completion of the original works, Mr. Charles R. Walker became their superintendent, and has retained the office ten years. At the close of 1884 the amount of pipes laid had increased to 229,916 feet, about 43.5 miles, the stop-valves to 316 and public fire hydrants to 371 in number, and the service pipes, to a total of 65,766 feet, supply 2476 consumers of water.


In the mean time the total cost of construction, in- cluding the extensions of the pipe system, had reached $824,989, and the annual income of the water-works for water sold had reached $75,580, or nearly ten per cent. on the cost. During the ten years the works have been in operation no conflagration has resulted from the many fires started, and every fire within reach of the works has been extinguished so promptly that there has been no material loss at any single fire. The original cost of the works has undoubtedly been saved to the citizens in prevention of losses by fires, while the city now finds that it has been a financial investment that will, by its income, soon reimburse it for the original outlay and further an investment that will return to its citizen proprietors an almost incal- culable annual interest of safety, comfort, convenience and health.


The Manchester Driving Park Association was organized December 1, 1882, and its first officers were as follows : President, John B. Clarke; Treasurer, James A. Weston ; Clerk, Samuel F. Curtis ; Direct- ors, John B. Clarke, A. C. Wallace, C. D. Welch, A. D. Gooden, Alpheus Bodwell, Samuel F. Curtis and George W. Riddle. Subsequently John B. Clarke re- signed the office of president, and George W. Riddle was elected in his place.


The association, after a careful examination of va- rious sites for a suitable location for a park, decided to purchase forty-five acres situated in the southeast- ern section of the city, on the line of the Nutt road and the Manchester and Lawrence Railroad, one mile and three-quarters from the post-office. The land was considered well adapted to the purpose, and though nothing better than a rough pasture with some wood- land, it was transformed in four months' time into an attractive park, and was visited the first week in Sep- tember by thirty thousand people. This exhibition of enterprise was but one of the many which have been characteristic of Manchester people whenever they have sought to add a new feature conducive to the interests and pleasures of the city.


The park is furnished with all the conveniences of a first-class driving park and fair-grounds, including grand stand, press stand, restaurant, judges' stand. cattle-pens, stables, building for bench shows of dogs, poultry-house, etc.


desired to see the proprietor on important business at Janesville. Mr. Parker passed out of his saloon to accompany the gentleman, first securing a lantern, as the night was so exceptionally black, that "as dark as the night of the Parker murder " has since become a household phrase. On the way to their destination the two men crossed Pine to Merrimack Street, and soon took a path that led through a heavy growth of pine, and from this forest, in the vicinity of what is now the corner of Beech and Manchester Streets, the cry of "murder!" was soon heard; but none dreamed that it heralded the monstrous crime. "Oh, don't, don't!" was supposed to be the outery of some one being placed under police surveillance. The morning light disclosed the terrible ghastliness of a murdered man upon a bed of snow. Mr. Parker lay with trachea doubly severed and deep gashes about the hips, and wounds on other parts of the body were discovered by Coroner Joseph M. Rowell. The appearance of the ground indicated a mighty struggle for life against a fiend armed with razor and butcher- knife, incited by the knowledge that thousands of dollars were upon the person of the victim. About sixteen hundred dollars escaped the rapacity of the murderer. Mr. Parker held the office of tax collector the year previous, and the collector's book, then in his possession, bore the impress of blood-stained fingers.


Several persons were suspected of the crime, arrested and tried, but no one was convicted, and the mystery of the Parker murder, after a lapse of forty years, is a mystery still.


The County Court-House, located on the corner of Merrimack and Franklin Streets, was erected in 1868, at the cost of forty thousand dollars. It is a two-story brick building.


Cemeteries .- The oldest burial-place under the control of the eity is what is known as the Valley Cemetery, which was given to the town by the Amos- keag Company in 1840. It contains about twenty acres. Pine Grove Cemetery contains about fifty- four acres, and is located about two and a half miles from the city hall, between the Calef and River roads. Other cemeteries are the Amoskeag, St. Joseph, St. Augustine, Mount Calvary; also the old burying- ground at the Centre; one at Goffe's Falls; one in West Manchester; one near the school-house at Harvey's Mills, called the Merrill Cemetery; one in the castern part of the city, known as Stowell's Ground; the Bay Cemetery, on the River road, near Amoskeag Falls; the Forest Cemetery, on the old Weston farm, in the southeastern part of the city ; and a small yard in the north part of the city.


Fire Department .- In 1839 the town voted to buy a fire-engine and necessary apparatus. To this single engine others were added from time to time until eight or ten engine and hose companies were under the city's control, when the first steam fire-engine was bought in 1859. This was also the first one made by


The Parker Murder .- The history of Manchester would be incomplete with no reference to the murder of Jonas L. Parker. The facts were as follows: On Wednesday evening, March 26, 1845, a man called at the bowling saloon, on Manchester Street, belonging to Mr. Parker, stating that a Mrs. Bean, from Lowell, ! the Amoskeag Company, whose engines have since 8

joining towns, and is one of the celebrated military bodies of New England.


Prior to the organization of this corps there had been several independent companies organized in Man- chester, viz. : Manchester Rifle Company, organized in 1825, under command of Captain James MeQues- tion ; the Stark Guards, organized August 16, 1840, Captain Walter French; the Granite Fusileers, organized August 10, 1842, Captain Samuel W.
