" Which Petition of the said Elisha in Part above recited we have taken into our most mature Consideration together with authenticated copys of the said act and Charter mentioned in said l'etition with such other Evidence as the I'etitioner has thought fit to lay before this House in support thereof, by which it manifestly appears to us, that there was an act or Law made and past by the Govr Council and representtre of this Province duted the day of 17 by which a Part of the Town of Exeter was incorporated into a Parish named of Brint wood by metes and Bounds, and that the Inhabitants within said Bounds, were to duty Parish Duty, ? and receive parish privileges in said Brentwood, and were exon- erated from parish Duty in the Parishes whereto they belonged before the Date of said Inw : That Discontent soon arose among the Parishion- ers of sd Brentwood about the Place of fixing their meeting House, which occasioned a new Petition to the Governor Council and Gen. assembly dated the day of 17 , for a minor Part of said Parishioners prayer, to have the said l'arish divided into two Parishes but that which was offered in support thereof appearing frivolous to the General assem- bly, the said Petition was by them ordered to be dismissed: That after- wards (viz) on the day of 17 The discontented Party petitioned anew to His Excl and Council regardless of the General assembly (one Branch of the Legislature) praying again for a Division of sd Brentwood into Two Parishes, which your Ex. and Council ( without the Geul assem- bly) were pleased to take Cognizance of, and on the day of 17 to grant a Charter under the Province Seal to the said Petitioners, in- corporating another Parish named Keenborough by metes and Bounds and exonerating the Inhabitants of said Keenborough from their Parish Duty in Brentwood which they were obliged to do and perform there by Law, which charter so far This House looks upon as an attempt to ab- rogate and supersede a Law in Part, and thereby an open Usurpation of a Power appertaining to the Gen assy in Conjunction with the Govr and Conn. and a manifest invasion of the Just rights and Privileges of the People whom we represent, and an Infringem't on the rights of the Par- ishioners of Brentwood, and an oppression of them in particular, which we think ourselves obliged to take notice of in Duty to His Majesty, io faithfulness to our Constituents and in Justice & Honour to ourselves and to remonstrate againstoot. We do therefore earnestly request your Exer and Honours, seriou-ly to reconsider this matter, and to recall the Keenborough Grant and thereby put an end to the Striles already com- menced, and a stop to others ready to break out in consequence thereuf and also to save this Honse the Trouble of saying or acting further on upon it, for as we are the representatives of a free protestant People and as such the Guardians of their Privileges, we esteem ourselves obliged to make a stand agat every attempt made to deprive them of their Just Rights, and particularly we shall think ourselves inexcusable in case your Exks and Hon's should not relieve ns if we should not apply to His most Excellent majesty who is graciously pleased to esteeni his own Pre- rogatives and his Subjects Privileges equally dear to him for a remedy, and we esteen ourselves more especially obliged to take this step (if your Ex & Hlou's don't prevent it) as it is not the first Instance wherein your Excellency has attempted to invade our rights Witness your Endeavours to get the provincial Records of Deeds into your Hands, or at least to have the Disposal of them, which are no other than the Peoples Evi- dences of their Titles to their Land Estates und therefore according to the rules of common sense and Reason, ought to be in their own several keepings if it could be, but as it can't they ought to be disposed of by them why are the Proprietors of their Evidences as well as of their Es- tates. Another Instance was your Excellency's Endeavor to augment the number of members of this House by your own mear arbitrary Power, without any Law enabling you so to, or any colour of authority from ITis majesty for your so doing that was ever made known to us, to which may be added your Excellency's cansing a number of men to scout on ye west side of merrimack River last summer before A Grant was made for their Pay and Subsistence, and which we humbly appre- hend your Excellency could not rationally expect ever would be and the scouters remain to this Day without wages and those that subsisted them withont their pay for it whether this is not oppressive we leave to the wisest Judges to determine. Proceedings of this nnture will cast no . blame on 18, but it gives us Concern, that any office must bear the Rec-

Congregational Church.1-Brentwood was origin- ally a part of Exeter, and was incorporated June 26, 1742. Previous to this a meeting-house had been erected in what is now the easterly part of Brent- wood. The first pastor of the Congregational Church in Brentwood was Rev. Nathaniel Trask, from Lex- ington, Mass. He came to Brentwood in 1747. A ·church was organized in 1748, and Mr. Trask was ordained Dec. 12, 1748. There was a meeting-house built near the centre of the town in 1750, where the present Congregational meeting-house now stands. A church was organized at the Centre July 12th, O. S., or July 23, N. S., 175I. These two churches nnited in one, and Rev. Mr. Trask was installed pastor of this united church and minister of the town, Jan. 7, O. S., or Jan. 18; N. S., 1756, and Rev. Ward Cotton, from Hampton, preached on the occasion from Col. iv. 17. Mr. Trask was dismissed from his pastoral charge July 30, 1787, on account of inability to preach, arising from a disorder in his head. Mr. Trask's ministry in the town was about forty years. He died in Brentwood, Dec. 12, 1789, aged sixty- eight years. During the time between Mr. Trask's dismissal and the second pastor's settlement there was a large number of candidates employed. Rev. Ebenezer Flint, from Methuen, Mass., was the second pastor of this church, ordained May 27, 1801. He was a man much respected and beloved by his people. He died suddenly, Oct. 12, 181I, aged forty-two years, leaving a wife and four small children. Mr. Flint's ministry here was some more than ten years.

On the 21st of July, 1813, Rev. Chester Colton, from Hartford, Conn., commenced his labors liere, and was ordained pastor of this church Jan. 25, 1815. Rev. William F. Rowland, from Exeter, preached from 1 Cor. i. 21. The meeting-house, which was built in 1750, was taken down, and a new one built on the same spot in 1815. The Congregational par- sonage house, which is now occupied by Rev. W. C. Jackson, was also built in 1815. The Sabbath-school was organized in the spring of 1817, and Thomas S. Robinson was the first superintendent. Mr. Colton secured to himself the warmest attachment of his people, and his labors were greatly blessed. He was dismissed at his own request, on account of inflamma- tion of the eyes, March 16, 1825. After regaining the use of his eyes, he preached a while in Connecticut, and afterwards as a missionary to the West, where he died Sept. 15, 1850, aged sixty-six years. The fourth pastor of this church was Rev. Luke A. Spof- ford, from Gilmanton, N. H., installed Feb. 22, 1826, and Rev. Abraham Burnham, from Pembroke, N. H., preached from John v. 35. Mr. Spofford asked and received a dismissal, April 1, 1829. He died in Rock- ville, Ind., Oct. 10, 1855. After the dismissal of Mr. Spofford this people enjoyed the labors of Rev. Jonathan Ward, from Plymouth, N. H., as acting

When this meeting-house was first built the audience-room was two stories high; the gallery was high three ways round the room; the pulpit was so exceedingly high as to tire the necks and eyes of those who sat nearest the pulpit to look at the minister; the pews were square; the seats that kind that had hinges, and of course must be turned up when the congregation rose for prayers. The second story is now a hall, used for town and society busi- ness. The pews in the audience-room are long, the pulpit low, the gallery small, exclusively for the Baptist Church.1 z A meeting-house had been erected in the northwest part of the town previous to 1768.

Through the efforts of Mr. Dame, a bell was purchased and put in the belfry of the meeting-honse, April 18, 1855, and also a chandelier, which was put in the meeting-house June 27, 1855. Rev. Mr. Dame was dismissed Nov. 12, 1856. Rev. Mr. Allen, from South Berwick, Me., preached the sermon at the installation

The new brick church was dedicated Nov. 4, 1828. The first anni- versary of the Portsmouth Baptist Association was held at the new Baptist meeting-bouse in Brentwood, Oct. 7 and 8, 1829. The parsonage house was built in 1832. Mr. Cook was dismissed May 1, 1835. He died in Concord, N. H., Feb. 15, 1872, aged eighty- one years.

In October, 1844, Rev. A. M. Swain was the pastor, remaining until 1849. He was succeeded by Rev. J. H. Learned. In the winter of 1853-54 a revival was enjoyed ; the pastor was assisted by Rev. John Pea- cock in holding a meeting of several days, when many were hopefuly converted. Much to the regret of his people, Bro. Learned was obliged, on account of ill health, to close his labors with this church in the spring of 1854. In 1855, Rev. A. M. Swain was again called to minister to this people. In 1857 he talks of leaving, but it is hoped he will not. He preached his farewell sermon Oct. 24, 1858; his text was I Chron- icles xxviii. 9. In the spring of 1859, Rev. William H.

Coburn was the next pastor, coming here some time in 1863, remaining until July 1, 1866. Rev. H. G. Hubbard was his successor; was here for two years, and preached his farewell sermon Nov. 8, 1868. His departure was deeply regretted by his people.

During the next year somewhat extensive repairs were made on the inside of the church building, and on their completion, in Angust, 1869, the Rev. Charles D. Swett received and accepted a call to become pas- tor of this church. He remained here four years. During his ministry the church celebrated their cen- tennial, he preaching a sermon on the occasion. He

delivered this sermon Oct. 19, 1871, the church heing one hundred years old February 2d previous.

In October, 1873, Rev. J. H. Learned received and accepted a call to become pastor again for the second time, which position he held for three years, , and resigned again in the fall of 1876 on account of ill health. Dec. 10, 1876, E. L. Scott accepted a call to this church, and was ordained here March 6, 1877, and closed his labors Oct. 14, 1877. Rev. C. H. Newhall succeeded him, and was pastor for three years, when he resigned. Oct. 31, 1880, Rev. George Ober was given a very unanimous call to become pastor of this old church and accepted ; he began his labors Feb. 6, 1881, and is the present pastor.

This church is now (May, 1882) one hundred and eleven years old. Its Great Head has thus far pre- served it through its changes. Its present member- ship is ninety-eight.
