The principal publication issued by the printing establishment is The Morning Star, a weekly religious paper of eight pages. It was originally published in Limerick, Me., its first number bearing date May 11, 1826, and is, therefore, one of the oldest religious weeklies in this country. It was started and owned at first by private individuals, but was conducted in the interests of the Free-Will Baptist denomination. In 1832 the Star became by purchase the property of |

the denomination. William Barr was chosen editor, and served in this capacity until his death, as before stated, in 1866. Rev. George T. Day, D.D., was edi- tor from 1866 until 1875. He was succeeded by Mr. G. F. Mosher, whose resignation of the editorship was accepted in 1882. The present editor is Rev. C. A. Bickford. The Star has a large circulation, and is generally recognized as one of the promi- nent and influential religious weeklies of the land. Its history has been a particularly creditable one in connection with the great questions of anti-slavery and moral reform. It has been several times enlarged, and is steadily growing in excellence and popular favor.

In 1845 the printing establishment began the pub- lication of The Myrtle, a paper for Sunday-school scholars. It was favorably received, and attained a circulation of ten thousand copies in 1855, which was increased to sixteen thousand in 1875. It has been edited by various individuals, and has been once en- larged since it was founded.

In 1873 The Little Star, a paper similar to The Myrtle, but of higher grade, was established, to be issued in the alternate weeks with the Myrtle. Both papers are now well sustained.

The establishment has also published Sunday-school Lesson Leaves, of two grades, for several years past, treating the International Series of Sunday-school Lessons, and in 1880 began the publication of the "Star Quarterly," a carefully prepared help in the study and teaching of those lessons. It will here- after publish " Leaves" of three grades,-" Primary," "Junior," and " Senior,"-in addition to the " Quar- terly," which will contain full notes and various helps in connection with each lesson. All the Sunday- school publications are prepared under the editorial supervision of Rev. G. C. Waterman, whose time is wholly given to this department of the work.

The establishment also publishes a variety of de- nominational books, among which may be mentioned Prof. J. J. Butler's "Theology and Commentary," the "Centennial Record," "History of the Free-Will Baptists," "Christian Baptism," " Life of George T. Day," "Life of William Burr," and a volume of ser- mons entitled " Doctrine and Life."

Concerning Schools .- What Dover did in the earliest days we cannot learn. Parson Hanserd Knollys, minister here 1638 to 1641, graduated at Cambridge, England ; after he left Dover was a teacher in England, and he had plenty of time when in Dover to teach the few children. Parson Daniel Maude, minister here 1642 to 1655, graduate of Emanuel, Cambridge, England, in 1606, A.M. 1610, was a teacher in the Boston Latin School when called here to the pastorate. It would be surprising if he had not revived his masterly gifts on Dover Neck.

The first extant vote of the town was April 5, 1658, when it was voted that twenty pounds per annum be appropriated for the maintenance of a schoolmaster

in Dover for " all the children," the master "to have the privilege of all strangers out of the township," -- by which we understand that he could charge a fee to all outside children,-and he was to teach read- ing, writing, casting accounts, and Latin. Charles Buckner was employed under this vote. We don't know where he came from. The town gave him some land. Perhaps he left town about April, 1662, as in that month he was chosen a juryman, and a few weeks after a vacancy was filled. But perhaps not. He went to Boston. April 12, 1668, he and wife, Mary, of Boston, sold to Job Clements four acres in Dover, bounded east by the fore river, north by commons, west by highway, and south by lot where David Ludecus Edling used to live.

He taught Latin. John Reyner, Jr., son of old Parson John, was fitted by somebody, and went from Dover; perhaps taught by his father, more likely by Mr. Buckner. John graduated at Harvard in 1663, ranking third in his class,-the class numbering seven.

John Sullivan was once a teacher here. At a meet- ing of the selectmen on the 20th of May, 1723, it was ordered that two schoolmasters be procured for the town at a salary not exceeding thirty pounds each. " Mr. Sullefund" at that date agreed to serve "for three months sertin."

Sullivan was an Irishman, of liberal education, who is said to have come to this country in 1723, and he was a teacher for many years. He lived usually on the Berwick bank of the river at Salmon Falls, and died July, 1795, at a fabulous age. He was a man of marked ability, and his wife eqnaled him. It must have been due to his classical training that so many Somersworth boys were educated. The Sulli- van pair raised boys of their own. One son was John Sullivan, major-general in the Revolution, a daring and gallant officer, who led the right wing at Trenton and did good service at Princeton, drove the British left at Germantown, devastated the settlements of the Six Nations, severely defeated the Indians under Brant and the Tories under Johnson, and was eminent in Congress and as president of New Hampshire. His tombstone is at Durham. The late Michael Reade always insisted that Gen. John was born on the Dover side of the river, while his parents were temporarily residing here during one of the father's teaching episodes in Dover, and that contemporaries had assured him of it. We ought to add that he fore- saw the Revolution so clearly that as captain of mili- tia he thoroughly drilled a Durham company, and led them in the capture of Fort William and Mary, Dec. 14, 1774, which was the first act of war in oppo- sition to the crown.

James Sullivan was another son of the Dover schoolmaster. The fracture of a limb prevented his entering military service, and so he took the lower positions of judge of the Superior Court, member of Congress, councilor, judge of probate in Boston, and Governor of Massachusetts.

Descendants of both these brethren have shown that the Sullivan blood is good blood.

Samuel Hale was a teacher here in 1745 and there- abouts. He was a son of Samuel Hale, and grandson of Rev. John Hale, the first minister of Beverly. Samuel was born 24th August, 1718, graduated at Har- vard College 1740. How long he was in Dover we don't know. But he raised a company here in the old French war, and participated in the capture of Louisburg. He was for many years teacher in the Portsmouth grammar school, and by and by was judge of the Court of Common Pleas. He died in July, 1807. The late Hon. William Hale, of Dover, who was in Congress six years, was his son ; and his son William needs no introduction to Dover people.

When the news of the declaration of independence reached Dover, that ardent patriot Rev. Jeremy Belk- nap went at once to the public school. It was kept in the little Quaker meeting-house, the winter one which stood in the same yard, back from the road and south of the large one. Some of our readers easily remember that building; it was taken down only about forty-seven years ago. Master Samuel Wiggles- worth was the teacher. He was a physician, grad- uated at Harvard in 1752, and taught Latin.

Jesse Appleton was once a schoolmaster in Dover. It was somewhere between the date of his graduation at Dartmouth, in 1792, and his ordination as minister at Hampton. He became a Doctor of Divinity and president of Bowdoin College. His daughter Jane was the wife of President Franklin Pierce.

In his day there was but one town school, and it alternated, half and half, between the Pine Hill school-house and one that stood on the old road (then the main road) which runs by George W. Page's to the Upper Factory District. The school-house was perhaps half a mile in on that road. This was so long continued that the late Col. Andrew Peirce used, when a boy, to travel there to school.

Parson Robert Gray used to both teach and preach. Salary was small, and he added to it by occasionally keeping the town school. He was minister here from 1787 to 1805. He lived in the house now occupied by Reuben H. Twombly, on Pleasant Street. It was built for a parsonage when he came here. He was a classical scholar, and at first was a remarkable total abstinence man.

In 1837 the common schools were given a great impetus when Enoch S. Sherman took charge of the "Landing School" of District No. 2, in 1837, with Mary H. Wiggin for assistant. He was, for his time, an exceedingly able teacher. The school had long been called a "hard one," but under his management it became one of the best in the State. The school was in session thirty-nine weeks, and one hundred and twenty-six pupils attended. In addition to common- school studies, Latin, surveying, algebra, astronomy, philosophy, and book-keeping were taught. In 1838, Mr. Sherman had for assistants William G. Mitchell

and Sophia Smith. Length of school, in weeks, forty- one; whole number of scholars, two hundred and twenty; and mental philosophy, rhetoric, chemistry, and elocution were added to the course. In 1847 Susan A. Mason was assistant. By this time an able teacher had been secured for the Fourth Street school, Abner J. Nutter, now living, and in consequence the number at the " Old Landing" had fallen to eighty- nine, but geometry was added to the course of study.

In 1848, S. Amanda Nason and Lydia G. Foss were assistants. Length of school, in weeks, thirty-seven ; whole number of different pupils, one hundred and ninety-one. Latin was dropped by order of com- mittee, as a study not sanctioned by State law. Mr. King, James Taylor.

Sherman, exclusive of board, thirty-five dollars per month. Miss Nason received, including board, four- teen dollars; Miss Foss, twelve dollars.

Abner J. Nutter took the school in 1850, with Re- becca C. Smith as assistant, remaining for several years, and fitting the first class which entered the high school. By this time the practice of sending apprentices and overgrown farm boys to school in the winter had ceased. Mr Nutter's average of eu- rolled scholars till the opening of the high school was one hundred and nine.

In 1848 the Legislature passed an act permitting contiguous districts to unite for the support of a high school. Districts No. 1 and 2 ought to have united ; they couldn't agree ; whereupon District No. 2 voted to build. The building committee was Dr. Joseph H. Smith, chairman ; Samuel HI. Parker, secretary ; William Burr, Dr. Levi G. Hill, Nathaniel Paul. The building was finished September, 1851. October 6th following forty-four pupils occupied the building, with Moses L. Morse, graduate from Bowdoin, and Miss Mary S. Grant as teachers. Principal's salary eight hundred dollars per annum.

In 1870 the twelve school districts of the city were united, and the high school thrown open to the whole city. The principals of the high school have been M. L. Morse, D. O. Quimby, E. M. Hussey, M. L. Morse, Thomas Tash, Samuel G. Haley, William Webster, John W. Allard, Henry P. Warren, E. D. Mason, H. H. Hart, E. A. Greeley, E. R. Goodwin.

In 1849, in accordance with the provisions of the Somersworth act of the year previous, District No. I began to grade their schools. District No. 2 soon fol- lowed, and because of opening its high school was able to perform the work in a more thorough and satisfactory manner. Nathaniel Hills is still a resi- dent in Dover, and a graduate of Dartmouth ; was ! also a noted and successful teacher.

For several years past the city has employed a superintendent of schools. The present superintend- ent is Channing Folsom. The amount appropriated for public schools is between twenty and twenty-five | thousand dollars annually.1

Masonic History .- Federal Lodge was organized by a dispensation from the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire, Aug. 20, 1792.

The following Masons, members of different lodges, were present at the first meeting on that date: Theo- philus Dame, Amos Cogswell, Samuel Place, Jona- than Rawson, Nathan Hoit, Henry Mellen, William

Asa Tufts, a merchant in Dover, was the first Mason made in the lodge. He was subsequently an officer. He was the father of Asa A. Tufts, Esq., for many years cashier of the Strafford Bank.

The lodge held meetings regularly until May 8, 1797, when it became dormant.

Strafford Lodge, No. 29, was organized by a charter from the Grand Lodge of New Hampshire, July 5, 1817.

John Williams, agent for the Cocheco Manufac- turing Company, was the first Master. The other officers were Joseph H. Gage, S. W .; William Pal- mer, J. W. ; Andrew Peirce, Sec. and Treas .; Henry Quimby, S. D .; Winthrop Adams, J. D .; James Whitehouse. Tyler. It continued to prosper for sev- eral years, but, owing largely to the anti-Masouic troubles of the times, surrendered its charter in 1834. Its last representative to the Grand Lodge was John H. White, in 1833.

On the Ilth of March, 1848, a petition was signed by some of the old members of Strafford Lodge for a . restoration of its charter. The petition was granted, and the following officers were elected and installed : Andrew Peirce, W. M. ; Moses Paul, S. W .; Benjamin Wiggin, J. W .; William Stern, Treas .; John H. White, Sec. ; Asa A. Tufts, S. D .; George Piper, S. D .; Nathaniel R. Hill, Elhanan W. Fenner, Stewards ; Thomas R. Lambert, D.D., Chap .; Eri Perkins, Marshal ; Charles Paul, Tyler. Rev. Dr. Lamber and Asa A. Tufts are the only members of the above list now living.

Capt. Moses Paul was the next Master, and he re- mained in office six years. To his warm interest in Masonry and wise judgment the lodge largely owes its prosperity during his term of office and its subse- quent success.

Federal Lodge held its meetings at the tavern of Col. Amos Cogswell. Strafford Lodge was first or- ganized at the tavern of Samuel Wyatt. It after- wards held its meetings in the third story of the brick block on the southwest corner of Pleasant and Silver Streets, subsequently in the second story of Franklin Academy, which it occupied when it be- came dormant. On the revival of the lodge it occu- pied its former hall in Franklin Academy. In 1857

it removed to its present hall on Central Street, which has been recently refitted in modern style.

The present number of members is two hundred and thirty-eight. It has an invested fund of three thousand five hundred and forty-two dollars and eighty-seven cents.

Belknap Chapter, No. 8, was organized by a charter from the Grand Chapter of New Hampshire, Jan. 20, 1826, and the following officers were elected and installed :

Andrew Peirce, M. E. II. P .; John Williams, E. K .; Moses Paul, E. S .; John W. Mellen, C. H. ; Asa A. Tufts, P. S .; Samuel Hale, R. A. C .; Isaac L. Folsom, Sec .; John Chase, Treas .; Rev. John M. Moffit, Chap.

After a successful career of some years it surren- dered its charter in 1834.

In 1850 a petition was signed by the Capitular Masons in Dover, and it was restored September 1st of that year, and the following officers were elected and installed :

Moses Paul, M. E. H. P .; Joshua Edwards, E. K .; John H. White, E. S .; Ichabod G. Jordan, C. H .; Stephen P. Palmer, P. S .; Benjamin Wiggin, R. A. C .; George Piper, Sec. ; John Burns, Treas. ; Rev. Justin Spalding, Chap.

None of the above officers are now living.

The chapter has had a prosperous career, now numbers two hundred and eighteen members, and. has an invested fund of two thousand five hundred and fifty-six dollars and seventy-seven cents.

Orphan Council, No. 1. is the oldest council in the State. It was organized April 23, 1832. The following officers were elected and installed : Samuel C. Bricket, T. I. G. M. ; Jonathan Edwards, D. G. M .; William North, Con .; William H. Hatch, Treas .; James H. Blinn, Rec. It became dormant in 1834. In 1858 a petition was sent for its restoration. The same was granted August 28th of that year, and the following officers were elected and installed : Samuel Dunster, T. I. G. M .; Moses Paul, R. I. G. M .; Jon- athan Edwards, I. G. M .; Ichabod G. Jordan, Treas .; Mark Noble, Rec. The council numbers one hun- dred and sixty-three members, and has an invested fund.

B .; Oliver Chick, S. B. ; Rufus W. Stevens, W. The commandery has had continued prosperity, now numbers one hundred and sixty-one members, and has a well-invested fund.

Odd-Fellowship. - Wecohamet Lodge, No. 3, I. O.O. F., was instituted Dec. 28, 1843, with twenty-

eight members. Three of these charter members are now living, viz. : Rev. Eben Francis, Cambridgeport, Mass. ; Seth S. Moulton, Boston Highlands, Mass .; John II. Wiggins, London, England. The lodge has shown a constant increase, and on the Ist of July, 1882, numbered three hundred and ten.

Mount Pleasant Lodge, No. 16, I. 0. 0. F., was instituted Feb. 11, 1846.

The officers elected and installed were James M. Flagg, N. G .; Thomas E. Sawyer, V. G .; John II. Wiggin, Sec .; Seth S. Moulton, Treas. The charter members were John HI. Wiggin, James M. Flagg, E. O. Laughton, John J. Davis, and Seth S. Moulton.

Owing to the records having been destroyed by fire at Manchester, Feb. 5, 1856, a very meagre account can be given of its early history. However, the lodge started with a bright and flattering prospect before it. Among the first to enlist under its banner were many prominent and enterprising citizens. It comprised professional men, business men, and me- chanics. For a time it flourished beyond the most sanguine expectations of any one.

The initiation l'ee was five dollars ; the degrees were three dollars each ; the dues were seventy-five cents per quarter. It paid a perpetual sick benefit of one dollar to white, one dollar and a half to blue, and three dollars to scarlet, and a funeral benefit, on the death of a brother, of thirty dollars; on the death of a brother's wife, fifteen dollars.

Mount Pleasant Lodge, like many others all over the land, was left to dwindle and fall asleep. She gave the balance of her fund, one hundred and twenty dollars, for a library fund; and gave cards of clear- ance to all who were in good standing in the lodge at that time.

In 1849 a movement was started to emerge from Mount Pleasant and join Wecohamet. Accordingly it was decreed by a vote, fourteen to two, to unite with said lodge. This was agreed to by Wecohamet under certain stipulations that had been decided upon by a vote of twenty-one to ten.

On August 20th of the same year a memorial was presented to the Grand Lodge, I. O. O. F., by P. G. M. Parker, praying that they be united. At the same time a remonstrance was presented by P. G. Bamford ; this was advocated by P. G. C. W. Woodman, and the Grand Lodge decided that there was no law whereby such an action could be obtained.

On the 9th of July following the lodge surren- dered to the Grand Master the charter, books, and such other property as was then in its possession. There were thirty-seven members in good standing, namely : John H. Wiggin, S. S. Moulton, Oliver Til- betts, William A. Perkins, Thomas L. Smith, Caleb Duxbury, Samuel Dunn, Jr., Oliver Wyatt, William Burley, Mark Thompson, Charles Paul, Isaac B. Brown, George P. Weeks, Alpheus Rogers, Daniel Bogle, James Kimball, Jacob K. Twombly, John Me- serve, William L. Walker, Stephen Toppan, Benjamin
