doing well whatever you are called upon to do. His funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. Moses Hemmenway, D.D., and the text was Rev. xi. 10: " Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life."


Rev. James Pike was succeeded in his ministry by Rev. Pearson Thurston, who was ordained here Feb. 1, 1792, and who remained with the parish till Dec. 2, 1812. Some time in January of this year (1812) the , pressed with the solemn truth, that "the way of the parsonage-house in which he lived, together with his barn and stable, was consumed by fire. There was nothing saved from the devouring flames, not even the clothing of the family. The church records at this time were also destroyed. This was a heavy blow to the parish, and so crippled it that it never again flourished as before. An effort, however, was made to rebuild the parsonage, but after putting up the frame the enterprise was abandoned, and it was left to decay.


Mr. Thurston, comprehending the state of things, at once asked a dismission from the parish, which was reluctantly granted. Ile was a graduate of Dart- mouth College, a man of good intellect, of true piety, and a strict Calvinist in his principles. Ile died Aug. 15, 1819.


He was succeeded in his Christian labors by the Rev. Luke Spofford, a man of average talents, and a true and self-sacrificing worker for his Master. The parish under his preaching seemed to revive a little, and they hoped to make him their permanent preacher, to go in and out before them, and break unto them the " bread of life ;" but, for some reason, he stayed with the people but a short time, when he was succeeded by the Rev. Mr. Blodgett, a truly good and pious man, but one not having enough of that quality in him which is requisite to build up a society, conse- quently his congregation became so small that he was unable to obtain a sufficient support, and he, though loving the people and beloved by them, felt it his duty to leave them and labor in another place. After this, for some time, the society had only occasional preaching from such ministers as they could obtain. About the year 1824, they united in giving Mr. Reu- ben Porter a call, which he accepted. He preached to the people for about two years, when the village of Great Falls began to grow and increase in numbers, so that they set up a meeting in that village, and gave Mr. Porter a call to preach to them there, which he accepted and went to Great Falls, leaving the people of this society again without a preacher. From this time they had no settled minister, and only occasional preaching. The church had for some time before this been growing more and more feeble, till in 1827 it had but five members, and in 1829 but two.


Though the office of tithingman, which was con- sidered indispensable to good order in churches in earlier times, has been entirely dispensed with, yet as late as about the year 1780 one John Ervin, an apprentice, who committed some misdemeanor in


the church, was arrested by this important func- tionary of church discipline, brought near this meet- ing-house in which he had sinned, and there placed in the "stocks" prepared for such offenders for the space of one hour. To make the act still more im- pressive, the school was dismissed, and the children, led by their teacher, were marched to witness the scene of punishment, that their young minds might be im- transgressor is hard."


The Episcopal Church .- The origin of the Epis- copal Church is to be traced to a communication from the Rev. Henry Blackaller, then preaching at Great Falls, to J. W. Pierce, agent of the woolen-mills at the village of Salmon Falls, desiring to know if an occasional lecture on the Sabbath evening would be acceptable. This was in April, 1830. Encouragement being given, an arrangement was soon effected by which alternate services with a neighboring minister were held at a hall of a boarding-house. This was


kept up until December, when Mr. Blackaller, having finished with his duties at Great Falls, was invited to take the charge as rector of this parish. Arrange- ments were immediately entered into to support a permanent ministry and raise an edifice for the pur- poses of worship. The parish was organized into an Episcopal Society, to be governed by the doctrine and discipline of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States, in February, by designation of "Christ Church,"


After Mr. Blackaller took charge of the church, ser- vices were regularly performed in a room of the factory until July 17th, when the new building was completed. The edifice was dedicated July 24, 1830, with appro- priate ceremonies. Mr. Blackaller continued to preach here until April 8, 1833, when, at his own request, he was dismissed. He was followed by Rev. Francis A. Foxcroft, who was engaged only temporarily, and was connected with the church only about two months. The Rev. Samuel McBurney took charge of the pas- torate Aug. 10, 1833, and continued one year. The cause of his leaving, as stated in the record of the church, " was in consequence of the destruction of the factory by fire on the 7th instant, from which cause so large a portion of the parish have removed from the village that the remainder were unable to give him an adequate support." Afterthis, Mr. J.W. Pierce, warden of the church, read prayers and sermons until he left town, in the latter part of the year 1835. After this for about a year the church was closed, but was opened again upon Mr. Pierce's return to town, when he re- sumed the reading of the services, and continued so to do until Aug. 19, 1838, when he again left the place.


Rev. Mr. Newton E. Marble took charge of the parish June 1, 1845. At this time the factory had been rebuilt and a new population was gathered in. Ile continued as rector until Feb. 28, 1846. Since that period a very few services at irregular intervals

have been held, but at the present time the society is very small, and but few of the communicants of the church now survive.


The Congregational Society .- A few persons, in- habitants of the village of Salmon Falls, having as- sembled Jan. 3, 1846, to consider the expediency of forming an ecclesiastical society of the Congrega- tional order, unanimously resolved "that the inter- ests of religion and good morals in our village require the organization of such a society," and appointed a committee to prepare a constitution. At an adjourned meeting, January 9th, the society was duly organized. Rev. B. L. Swan was immediately engaged to preach three months.


In April following, Mr. Samuel J. Spalding was en- gaged to preach the remainder of the year. In the same month incipient steps were taken towards form- ing a church, which was organized May 1, 1846, by an ecclesiastical council convened for the purpose, and consisting of fourteen members.


Mr. Spalding having received a unanimous invita- tion to become the pastor of this church and society, was ordained and installed Oct. 28, 1846.


At a meeting of the church April 20, 1849, the sub- ject of building a house of worship was considered, and a committee appointed to procure by subscription the funds necessary for the purpose. At a subsequent meeting a report favorable to the enterprise was pre- sented, and a committee appointed to contract for and superintend the ercetion of the house, which was com- pleted in the spring of the following year, and dedi- cated to the worship of God May 1, 1850.


Rev. Mr. Spalding having received an invitation to become the pastor of the Whitefield Congregational Church in Newburyport, Mass., his pastoral relation to this church and society was dissolved June 9, 1851.


During the pastorate of Mr. Spalding the church very emphatically condemned the sin of slavery by the following resolutions read and adopted Feb. 25, 1848 :


" WHEREAS, The practice of buying, selling, and holding men as property has become prevalent among ministers and members of churches heretofore ac- knowledged and fellowshiped as evangelical, and whereas we are taught in the word of God that 'he that stealeth a man and selleth him, or if he be found in his hands, is a man-stealer,' therefore


" Resolved, That we believe slavery to be not only an evil, but a sin in the sight of God, and that the system under every modification is utterly opposed to the spirit and principles of the gospel.


" Resolved, That we deem it the duty of every Chris- tian in the meekness and spirit of the gospel to plead the cause of the poor, to remember in their prayers ' those that are in bonds as bound with them,' and by all moral and proper means seek to hasten the entire removal of the system from our land.


" Resolved, That we can have no Christian or min- isterial fellowship with those who hold their fellow-


"men as property or advocate slaveholding as either just or right in the sight of God."


On March 14, 1851, a letter of dismission and rec- ommendation was requested by a member to unite with a church in Milledgeville, Ga. It was not granted, because the pastor and the elders and many members of the church were slaveholders.


List of ministers and length of time they were connected with the church : S. J. Spalding, April, 1846, to June 9, 1851; E. E. Atwater, Feb. 3, 1852, to Nov. 3, 1857; D. B. Bradford, August, 1858, to March 25, 1862; F. S. Robic, Feb. 6, 1866, to June 6, 1870; Selah Merrill, June 6, 1870, to -- , 1874; George W. Christie, June, 1878, to March, 1880; R. G. Woodbridge, August, 1880, to present time.


Rev. Ezra llaskell preached many Sundays between 1872 and 1877, and Rev. A. H. Quint from Dec. 17, 1877, to June 31, 1878.


The Methodist Society .- The Methodist Society was organized at the village of Salmon Falls, Aug. 8, 1849, with twenty-four members, and the following board of stewards : Thomas Foye, J. W. Worster, Fos- ter Wilson, Orange Page, Amasa Fitch, N. G. Clary, and R. C. Fernald. The society never erected a church building, but for the first year or two held the ser- vices, most of the time, in the village hall, after which in the Episcopal Church building until about the year 1862, when the war so prostrated business and so many families left the place that it was thought best not to supply the pulpit any longer, but to unite with the Congregational Society in their house for worship.


The different pastors who were connected with this church were Henry Drew, who supplied the pulpit · from time of organization to January, 1851; Rev. J. Thurston, from July, 1852, to some time in the year 1853, when he was followed by Rev. Samuel Beedle. Rev. Byron Mark was pastor in 1854 and 1855. Rev. Silas Green was stationed at this parish in 1856, and Rev. Eleazer Smith filled the pulpit from 1857 to 1859, when he left to take the position as chaplain in the New Hampshire State prison. . After his depart- ure the Rev. Simeon P. Heath was placed in charge of the pastorate for two years, and in 1861, Rev. J. B. Holman, the last preacher the society had, was settled over the parish for one year.


Catholic Society .- In 1857 a Catholic Church edifice was erected in the village of Salmon Falls, very near the passenger station of the Boston and Maine Railroad. Before this time there was no Catholic Church nearer than Dover, N. H., and many Catholics from this town attended worship in that city. But some time during the above-mentioned year a large brick church was completed, and regular services performed therein. The cost of the church was about ten thousand dollars. The number of Catholics then attending was about six hundred.


Rev. Michael Luey was the first priest, and he re- mained until 1865. He had under his charge also

the Catholics in Great Falls, and preached at differ- ent times each Sunday to both congregations. Ile afterwards went to Lewiston, Me., and about three years ago died in Exeter, N. II. He was succeeded church till 1870. He is now in Ireland. From this time till 1873, Rev. John Sullivan officiated as priest. Then for the short space of three months Rev. Wil- liam Herbert was the religious head of this people. Since that time up to the present the church has had for its spiritual director the Rev. Francis X. Bowvier, a man of acknowledged ability and learning, and re- spected alike by his own people and by all who knew him.


A parochial residence was purchased on South Street, in Salmon Falls, in 1871, at an expense of three thousand two hundred dollars.


In 1876 the church was repaired and refitted throughout, at an expense of between three and four thousand dollars. There are now of those Catholics who attend church in this town about thirteen hundred, many of them coming from across the river from Maine. The greater portion of these are French.


Rollinsford is divided into five school districts. Before 1873 it had six, but at that time it was thought best to unite two of the districts in one.


District No. 1 is in the village of Salmon Falls, and is incorporated under what is called the " Somers- worth Act," raising by special tax an additional sum than that provided by the town for its school pur- poses, and having a special board of supervisors elected by the voters of the district. It has four grades of schools, and all are in a prosperous con- dition.


The school buildings throughout the town, with the exception of one, are good honses, and well adapted for school purposes. P. S. Brown, Charles Malloy, and Albert Morton are the present super- visors of District No. 1, and Amos W. Pike is super- visor of the districts in the old part of the town, which official position he has held at different times since the town was incorporated, about twenty-five years.


Salmon Falls Lodge, No. 30, I. O. of O. F. was instituted by Grand Master Timothy G. Senter, as- sisted by other grand officers of the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire, Sept. 5, 1849, with ten charter mem- bers, viz. : Samuel Hidden, Robert C. Fernald, Wil- liam W. Twing, Charles S. Fogg, John Raitt, Mas- terson Young, Joseph Yealon, Thomas H. Card, Nathan Guild, and Ebenezer Worster.

There has been received one hundred and forty mem- bers in all up to Jan. I, 1882. Whole number of members in good standing, Jan. 1, 1882, is sixty- six.


The organization has an invested fund of about two thousand dollars to be used for the relief of the sick, etc.


The lodge has held regular weekly meetings from ning Jan. 1, 1882: Charles A. Goodwin, N. G .; Ed- win P. Farnham, V. G .; James M. Brown, Sec .; Robert C. Fernald, Treas.

HISTORY OF STRAFFORD COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE.


Banks .- There are two banks in town,-the Salmon Falls Bank and the Rollinsford Savings-Bank, -- both of which are located in the village of Salmon Falls. The Salmon Falls Bank is a State bank, and was incorporated July 3, 1851, with a capital of fifty thousand dollars, divided into five hundred shares of one hundred dollars each. The first meeting was held Sept. 15, 1851. William II. Morton was chosen cashier, and has held that office to the present time. The directors first chosen were Hiram R. Roberts, Augustus Rollins, P'liney Lawton, Samuel Hidden, John Tyler, Humphrey S. Watson, and Oliver Lord. This bank went into operation on the 1st day of Jan- uary, 1852.


The Rollinsford Savings-Bank commenced oper- ations in July, 1850. Hon. H. R. Roberts was chosen president, and Joseph Doe and Pliney Lawton vice- presidents. Francis Plumer, William H. Morton, John Woodman, Horace Barber, Robert C. Fernald, and Charles T. Stewart were chosen trustees. Justus D. Watson was chosen secretary and treasurer. In 1855, William II. Morton was chosen secretary and treasurer, and he has continuously held these offices of trust to the present time. When he assumed these duties the deposits were removed to the new bank buikling just erected.


On July 1, 1855, the deposits were $70,463, and in July, 1877, were the greatest amount of deposits ever in the bank, amounting nearly to $800,000. During the following winter, owing to the general deprecia- tion in the money market and the failure of Western securities, the bank commissioners ordered the de- posits to be cut down twenty-five per cent., which was done. But since that time the bank has so pros- pered as to be able in a very short time to make up the twenty-five per cent. which the depositors lost by this operation.


The Grand Army of the Republic have an organi- zation in this town under the name of " Samuel Hale Post, No. 21." A post was organized here shortly after the war, but was kept alive only a few years, when its charter was surrendered. It was reorganized March 22, 1880, with the following officers for that year : Commander, Ezra II. Wheeler; Senior Vice- Commander, Augustus P. Horne; Junior Vice-Com- mander, William HI. Aspinwall; and with forty com- rades. Officers for 1881 were : Commander, Augustus P. Horne; Senior Vice-Commander, William H. As- pinwall ; Junior Vice-Commander, Charles A. Good- win. Officers for 1882 are: Commander, Charles A. Goodwin ; Senior Vice-Commander, Albert II. Richer; Junior Vice-Commander, William Clements. The present number of comrades is twenty-five.


Old Soldiers .- There is extant a " True list of all the Training Soldiers In the Parish of Somersworth Under the command of Thomas Wallingford Capt &e.," July 23, 1746. Among those enumerated who lived in that part of the parish which is now Rollins- ford are the above-named Thomas Wallingford,
