SETTLEMENT OF DUBLIN
"At a meeting of the proprietors of Monadnock No. 3, met at the meetinghouse in said township, on Thursday, the eleventh day of September, 1783, made choice of Capt. Moses Adams for a moderator.
"Attest: ELI MORSE, Props Clerk."
"Then voted to give the meetinghouse to the town as their prop- erty. Then voted to choose a committee to assist the clerk in exam- ining the accounts. Then chose Capt. Adams and Mr. Henry Strong- man for said committee."
Several other meetings were held; but no votes were passed except a vote to adjourn. The last meeting was held at the meetinghouse, March 3, 1785; it was adjourned to the last Wednesday in May, "to meet at the meetinghouse at two o'clock, afternoon." There is no further record of the doings of the proprietors of Monadnock No. 3 (Dublin).
We have found in the records of the Masonian Proprietors, a paper which Thomas Morse appears to have prepared at their request, being: "an Exact account of those Delinquents that had not Done their Duty in Mason's Pattern and in Dub- lin in Peculiar." For which work, Mr. Morse received £4: 10s. The list of delinquents is interesting because it contains the names of so many of the early settlers. Appended to the name of each is the number of acres that he had improved. The list is as follows: -

HISTORY OF DUBLIN
An examination of the preceding list reveals the fact that these persons were really not delinquents, with a possible excep- tion. It was, in fact, a list of the settlers, with the number of acres improved by each, from which the Masonian Proprietors could judge for themselves, to what extent the grantees had complied with the conditions of the grant. The conditions were that on each of the shares specified three acres of land, at least, should be cleared and improved within four years, a cabin erected within six months after that, and two additional acres a year cleared, for the next three years. This would call for the clearing of nine acres in seven years. It will be seen, by an examination of the list, that several settlers had improved just the required nine acres. Others had cleared considerably more than that. Only one settler appears on the list who had improved less than nine acres. This was Ezra Twitchell, who had cleared one acre. He may have recently come into the set- tlement, or there may have been some other sufficient reason for his not having done more upon his lot. We find no record that any settler was ejected for failure to do his "duty," as it was called.
Thomas Morse prepared that list in 1774. We find, in the records of the Masonian Proprietors, that, at a meeting held on January 15, 1783, a communication was presented from Mr. Morse, saying that he had complied with their request several years previously, but had not received his pay. It was voted to pay him the four pounds and ten shillings which he had charged for his services.
It is a singular circumstance that, in 1914, at a time 165 years removed from the grant of Monadnock No. 3 by the Masonian Proprietors, at the instigation of the "Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests," a few of the lineal descendants of the Masonian Proprietors claimed that certain lands on and about Monadnock Mountain had reverted to them, in conse- quence of a provision of the grant, because these lands on the rocks, near the summit of the mountain, had never been al- lotted to anybody, and they deeded the same to the society aforenamed. Claimants of a portion of the territory thus deeded did appear, however, and asserted their title to the lands "through adverse possession by their predecessors." The "Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests " caused an injunction to be issued restraining the claimants from cut- ting the valuable timber which was growing on the less elevated portion of the land in question. The case was carried to the
153
SETTLEMENT OF DUBLIN
October term of the Superior Court in Keene, in 1914. The society to which we have referred was the plaintiff; the claim- ants (Dow J. and Forrest L. Hart of Marlborough) were the defendants. The finding of the court is expressed as follows: "It is also found as a fact that the defendants entered into pos- session of lot 18, range 1, except that part adjoining the Shaker pasture .. . which they do not claim to own; and that they have good title to the same, acquired through adverse posses- sion by their predecessors, and it is, therefore, ordered that the injunction heretofore issued in this case be dissolved, and that the plaintiff's bill be dismissed."
That suit had reference to only a part of the property deeded by the Masonian descendants. According to the deeds by which the "Society for Protection of New Hampshire For- ests" secured these tracts, they are "to maintain forever its wild and primeval condition, where the forests and rocks shall remain undisturbed in their wild state, and where birds and game shall find natural refuge." The forests must remain un- molested. No cottages, hotels, or public-recreation buildings shall be erected without consent of the society; neither shall any roads or highways be built without permission of the so- ciety and under certain restrictions. It must be forever kept open to the public, under such rules and regulations as may be prescribed, and bivouacking and camping will be allowed, under certain conditions. The whole tract thus purchased was to be called the Masonian Monadnock Reservation. It was obtained by five deeds, whose dates range from October 28, 1913, to January 28, 1914.
The report upon this purchase, made by Philip W. Ayers, the State Forester of New Hampshire, in 1916, is here given, in part. He begins by declaring that the deed is given by "the descendants of the original proprietors of New Hampshire, known as the Masonian Proprietors." This is inaccurate. The original proprietors of New Hampshire were John Mason and his lawful heirs. The "Masonian Proprietors" were a syndicate of twelve men who, in 1746, purchased the clain, whatever may have been its validity, of these Masonian heirs, the whole of the claim being then held by JOHN TUFTON MASON. It was certain descendants of the men composing this syndicate, known as the "Masonian Proprietors," who sold this tract, on and about Monadnock, to the "Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests." The report of Mr. Ayers thus continues:
154
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
"A tract of 1,300 acres of land covering the highest parts of Mount Monadnock was conveyed to the society in 1914. This conveyance included twelve lots of one hundred acres each, more or less, that were never granted to settlers, and one lot that was granted but never occupied, and reverted, therefore, to the Proprietors.
"The society is unable to substantiate a claim to more than half of this land, for the reason that various areas have been taken from time to time by different abutting owners, who, using it for pasture purposes, appear to have held it twenty years in undisturbed possession and to have established valid title. In one test case of one hundred acres, the most of which had not been cleared, except as the fierce fires in 1804 and 1820 had cleared it, the society brought suit in the state Superior Court to recover and hold the land. Ten acres only had been cleared and used for pasture, and the society under- took to hold the remaining ninety acres. It particularly de- sired to save the fine old spruce trees on this lot, dating from 1820, that were scattered along the Farmer [or old Darling] Trail, which is the principal trail up Monadnock.
"Unfortunately the suit was lost. . .. The court decision did, however, substantiate the validity of the Masonian claim, and thus confirmed to the society its hold upon all the land that had not been occupied and used for twenty years for agricultural purposes, a little more than 650 acres, but the exact boundaries have not been run. The expenses of this suit were partly contributed by summer residents of Dublin, through the Dublin Welfare Society, and summer residents of Jaffrey.
"Six hundred fifty acres are thus held by the society. Of this, five hundred acres are located in the town of Jaffrey, al- though on the Dublin side of the mountain. One hundred fifty acres are located in the town of Dublin, and cover the long north-east shoulder of the mountain, including the whole of the Pumpelly Trail. To those who do not know this trail it may be described as one of the most beautiful in New Hamp- shire. For a mile and a half, on the sky line, it winds among the rocks and scrubby spruces, commanding noble prospects on both sides all the way. By an exchange of quitclaim deeds between the society and one of the abutting owners, an exact boundary line is established, which further establishes the society in the possession of this wild, unoccupied land on the shoulder of the mountain. . . . By the terms of deed .
155
SETTLEMENT OF DUBLIN
the society agrees to cut no timber, at any time, upon the Masonian Reservation, and to make no new trails, except direct trails to the summit, when these are deemed necessary by the officers of the society. It has full power to protect the timber from fire, insects, and fungus disease, but any struc- tures for these purposes are not to be placed on the sky line where they will break the nature contour of the mountain.
"The 'Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests' owns in Dublin lot 14, range 1; part of lot 15, range 1; and a part of lot 14, range 2. Many of the other lots on the moun- tain are owned by summer residents who are not likely to destroy their natural beauty.
"The following public land is held on Monadnock Mountain:

493 acres
Town of Jaffrey 200
Society for Protection of N. H. Forests 650

1343 acres
"The three tracts are contiguous."
CHAPTER V
INCORPORATION OF DUBLIN. - VOTERS. - INVOICE OF 1771. - WARNINGS OUT OF TOWN. - PRICES OF SUNDRY COMMODITIES
P REVIOUS to the incorporation of Dublin, as stated in Mr. Mason's address, there was a partial organization. This took place, November 16, 1768; but, as it was not sufficient for all the purposes of a town-body-politic, a formal charter was re- quired, of which the following is a copy. The original charter, with the autograph of Governor Wentworth, is still in existence, though in a worn and somewhat mutilated condition.1

At a recent town-meeting, the town very properly voted to have it preserved by a known modern process. About the first of May, 1916, the history committee received it back from the Emery Record Preserving Company of Taunton, Mass., with a photograph of it for the new town history. It is arranged in a book form of binding, in a cover about 9 by 15 inches, provided with a slip case, and lettered in gilt on the outside. This most interesting and valuable document is now permanently preserved, and may be seen at the town-clerk's office.

HISTORY OF DUBLIN
Respecting the name of the town, the late Thaddeus Morse, Senior, Esq., said that he heard, when a boy, a discussion with regard to the subject; and that he distinctly remembered the name DUBLIN was chosen, because the earliest settlers were Scotch-Irish, and the capital of their native country was Dublin.
The whole number of voters in Dublin, in 1770, was only twenty-three. A list of these voters, certified by Joseph Twitch- ell and John Muzzey, two of the assessors of that year, contains the following names: Levi Partridge, Thomas Morse, Eli Morse, William Greenwood, Joseph Greenwood, Joseph Adams, Asa Norcross, Henry Strongman, Silas Stone, Ivory Perry, Samuel Twitchell, Moses Mason, Joel Wight, Joseph Twitchell, Eben- ezer Twitchell, Reuben Morse, Daniel Morse, Benjamin Mason, Moses Adams, John Muzzey, Eleazer Twitchell, Joshua Lea- land, Edward West Perry.
The qualification for a voter at that period was "twenty pounds estate, to one single rate, beside the poll." The tax upon a poll was established by law at eighteen shillings. But, by a temporary law, which was to be "in force for the space of three years and no longer, from the 12th of April, 1770," - "every person ratable for thirty shillings ratable estate, includ- ing his poll, shall be deemed a legal voter, in all the affairs of the town or parish where he dwells, except choosing representa- tives." By this temporary law, the selectmen were required "to make a perfect invoice of each person's polls and ratable estate in eight columns, viz., one column for the amount of each person's poll, one for the amount of each person's improved lands, one for the amount of slaves, one for the amount of live stock, one for real estate, one for stock at interest or in trade, one for faculty, and one column for the sum total of what each person is to be rated for as aforesaid."
The invoice for the year 1771, taken by Eli Morse, commis- sioner of assessment, has been found. Under the heading of slaves, and also of faculty, no person is assessed, - in the first case, because no person owned a slave, and, in the second, be- cause it was left to the discretion of the selectmen to tax the faculty of a person or not. The wording of the law was, "Any person's faculty may be estimated by the selectmen of each town or parish at their discretion, not exceeding twenty pounds ratable estate." Under the heading, stock at interest or in trade, only one man, Henry Strongman, is assessed; and the sum is four shillings. Omitting all the headings except the eighth, or the sum total of each man's tax, we insert the names
159
INCORPORATION OF DUBLIN
of the tax-payers of 1771. In the arrangement of names, in- stead of adopting the order of the alphabet, the assessor appears to have begun with the most westerly man on the great road, then to have proceeded easterly, then westerly through the south part of the town, and lastly from east to west on the north side of the town.

In the invoice from which the foregoing list of taxes is taken, forty-six polls are reckoned, - Thomas Morse, William Green- wood, Joseph Adams, and Moses Adams, each paying for two polls. All males, eighteen years of age and upwards, were re- quired at this time to pay a poll-tax. Those persons whose tax is less than eighteen shillings were, most of them, probably non-

HISTORY OF DUBLIN
residents. Caleb Hill, Isaac Bond, Joseph Morse, and Eleazer Twitchell, were taxed for lands and live stock; and the rest for lands only.
We have copied this tax list exactly as it is found in the former town history (on page 142). It is obvious that there are errors in it. The "sum total" as given was most likely copied accu- rately from the original manuscript. The actual sum of the individual taxes as here given lacks twenty-one pence of the stated "sum total." Probably the three pence in the tax of Daniel Wood should have been six pence, as that is the number given in every other tax where the pence are mentioned. It is also probable that in copying the old manuscript of Mr. Morse, three sixes in the pence column were mistaken for zeros. In many manuscripts a six is easily mistaken for a zero. The discrepancy is doubtless explained in this manner. Three more pence in the Daniel Wood tax, with three more sixes in the pence column, would give us the additional twenty-one pence needed to make the actual sum square with the sum as given.
The new names in the invoice for 1772 are Thomas Green- wood, Moses Pratt, Uriah Coller (Collier?), John Bullard, Timothy Adams, William Strongman, Gardner Town, Bar- tholomew Goyer, and Samuel Johnson.
In the invoice of 1773, the new names are Thomas Alden, Jabez Puffer, Caleb Stanford, Eli Greenwood, James Chamber- lain, James Rollins, James Adams, Moses Greenwood, Silas Stone, Jun., Ebenezer Hill, and Ithamar Johnson.
In 1774, the names added are Ezra Morse, Abel Twitchell, Willard Hunt, Stephen Twitchell, Gershom Twitchell, Jun., Abijah Twitchell, William Bedlow, Isaac Adams, and Capt. Joseph Twitchell.
In 1775, the additional names are Richard Strongman, Thomas Green, Richard Gilchrest, Josiah Stanford, Phinehas Stanford, William Yeardley, and Nathaniel Belknap.
The invoice for 1776 has not been found; but in 1777 are the following new names: John Morse, Joshua Greenwood, Edward Cheney, Samuel Williams, Jabez Partridge, Oliver Wright, William Blanchard, Jonathan Sawyer, Simeon Stickney, Thomas Lewis, Dr. Burnap, and Daniel Hinds.
In 1778, we find the names added are Amos Emery, John French, Edmund Taylor, Aaron Marshall, Ebenezer Cobb, Samuel Stone, Israel Turner, Samuel Jones, John Farnum, Joshua Farnum, John Stroud, Josiah Reed, Asa Pratt, Joshua Stanford, Ward Eddy, James Cochran, Thomas Wakefield,

Nathan Bixby, John Learned, John Foster, Silas Taylor, Simeon Holt, and Rebecca Greenwood.
For the years succeeding 1778, no invoice has been found till 1793, when, for the first time, it was copied into the town clerk's book of records. What we have taken, however, from the old invoices in existence will serve to show the dates at which many individuals first settled in Dublin, or became of sufficient age to be taxed.
Another means of ascertaining the progress of the settle- ments in Dublin are the dates of the warnings out of town. We insert all that have been found, arranged according to the order of years. Against many of the names is the date at which the person or family came to town, or, more likely, the date on which the warning was served. Sometimes the day of the month, and sometimes the month only, is noted. Occasionally, the name of the town from which they came is mentioned.
