years when no meetings were held, continued into the late eighties.
Musical and dramatic entertainments and lectures by men of world-wide celebrity have been given here, especially in connec- tion with the monthly evening entertainments of the Sewing Circle. The family of the late Prof. Lewis B. Monroe gave concerts of unusual artistic merit, as did Prof. George L. Osgood of the Conservatory of Music, Boston, Mass., assisted by his brothers, Josiah and Dr. Hamilton Osgood. Readings were given by Prof. Monroe of the Monroe School of Oratory, Boston, Mass., and by two of his pupils, Misses Georgia Cayvan and Madia Craigin, afterwards well-known actresses. Steele Mac- Kaye and members of his family, also Miss Lydia Dodge, gave readings and took parts in dramatic entertainments. Lectures have been given in this room by Col. Thomas Wentworth Hig- ginson, Mark Twain, Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart of Harvard University, and others. Through each winter, entertainments of a high order are provided monthly here by the ladies of the Sewing Circle.
CHAPTER VIII
LATER CHURCHES
TRINITARIAN CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
FROM the commencement of Mr. Leonard's ministry, a few members of his church had not been satisfied with some of his doctrinal opinions. In the year 1827, measures began to be taken by them for the formation of another church and so- ciety. In June of that year, Deacon Woods resigned his office by sending to the pastor the following letter: -
"DUBLIN, June 23, 1827.
"Rev. Levi. W. Leonard, -Deeming it my duty, under present cir- cumstances and particular reasons, to resign my office in the church, I therefore give up the same.
"Yours with respect,
STEPHEN J. WOODS."
The resignation was accepted, and, in September of the same year, the following request was made: -
"To the Congregational Church in Dublin.
"REVEREND AND BELOVED, - We, the undersigned, members of your body, respectfully request of you a dismission, and a recom- mendation of our moral and Christian character. As the reason why we present this request, we beg leave to state that we differ so widely from you in our views of certain doctrines of the gospel which we consider fundamental, that we are unable to walk with you in Chris- tian fellowship, and believe that our better edification and the cause of truth would be promoted by our being disconnected from you, and formed into a separate church.
STEPHEN J. WOODS. ABIJAH RICHARDSON. LUCY HARDY.
MARTHA WOODS. ELIZABETH RICHARDSON. REBECKAH HAY."
At a meeting of the First Congregational Church, Septem- ber 30, 1827, "Voted that the request signed by the above- mentioned members of this church be granted."
308
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
The result of this movement was the organization of a new society, which at first was designated as the Second Congrega- tional Society of Dublin, but the name was changed, September 7, 1828, to that of the First Trinitarian Congregational Society of Dublin, and changed again, April 25, 1837, to the Trinita- rian Congregational Society of Dublin, by which name it is still known.
The following is an extract from the records of this church: -
"Agreeably to letters missive from several Christian brethren, lately members of the church under the pastoral care of the Rev. L. W. Leonard, an ecclesiastical council was convened at the house of Joseph Appleton, Esq., in Dublin, at ten o'clock, A.M., November 21, 1827, for the purpose of forming them into a Trinitarian Congrega- tional Church. There were present the following pastors and dele- gates, viz .: -
"Rev. Moses Bradford, without a pastoral charge; Rev. Gad Newell and Brother Josiah Richardson, from the church in Nelson; Rev. Peter Holt and Deacon John Field, from Presbyterian Church, Peterborough; Rev. Z. S. Barstow and Deacon C. H. Jaquith, from church in Keene.
"The council was organized by choosing Rev. M. Bradford mod- erator, and Rev. Z. S. Barstow scribe; and it was opened with prayer by the moderator.
"The council proceeded to inquire of the brethren that convened them what communication they had to make concerning the business which they wish to have accomplished. Accordingly, the brethren presented a document from the church connected with the First Congregational Society in Dublin, certifying their regular standing in the church, and dismissing them from that church whenever they shall have formed themselves into another body.
"The council inquired what was intended in the letter-missive by their differing essentially from the church from which they separate; and, in answer to the question, it was made evident that these breth- ren hold to the great doctrines of the gospel in accordance with the principles of the fathers of New England.
"Whereas, Voted that Stephen J. Woods, Abijah Richardson, Thomas Hay, Luke Richardson, Martha Woods, Lucy Hardy, Re- beckah Hay, and Elizabeth Richardson, be constituted a Trinitarian Congregational Church.
"Voted that the public exercises be performed in the following manner: that the Rev. Gad Newell make the first prayer, Rev. Mr. Barstow preach the sermon, Rev. Mr. Bradford attend to the busi- ness of constituting the church, and the Rev. Mr. Holt make the con- cluding prayer.

"Proceeded to the meetinghouse, performed the parts assigned, and constituted a Trinitarian Congregational Church.
"Accepted the above as the minutes of the council.
"Attest: MOSES BRADFORD, Moderator. Z. S. BARSTOW, Scribe."
"November 21, 1827. The church being formed, the members proceeded to choose the Rev. Gad Newell moderator; chose Luke Richardson clerk; chose Stephen J. Woods deacon."
The confession of faith and covenant adopted on the occasion was the same as that usually received by the churches of the Monadnock Association, which has been printed, and copies of which may be readily obtained.
At a meeting of the First Congregational (Unitarian) Soci- ety, March 20, 1827, the following vote was passed: -
"Voted that, in case the Second Congregational Society make arrangements to have preaching the ensuing year, the standing com- mittee of the First Congregational Society be requested to invite said Second Congregational Society to occupy the new meetinghouse at such time or times as it may be the pleasure of said society to pro- vide preaching, to the full extent according to their numbers, and so much farther as the officers of the First Congregational Society, with the advice and consent of Rev. Mr. Leonard and the selectmen, may deem expedient, for the term of one year."
A similar vote was passed, March 18, 1828, with this differ- ence, however, that "the standing committee of the First Society meet the committee of the Second Congregational So- ciety for the purpose of dividing the sabbaths to which said societies are entitled." In March, 1829, the vote of the society was "that the First Trinitarian Congregational Society in Dublin have leave to occupy the meetinghouse every thirteenth sabbath, the ensuing year." That would have given the new society about four Sundays a year.
The first record of preaching services, upon the books of this society, is an entry certifying to the fact that fifteen dollars had been paid to Rev. JOHN SHERER, on Monday, August 4, 1828. Judging from future payments for similar services, it would seem that this sum was for preaching twice, probably on Sundays, July 27, 1828, and August 3, 1828. If there were any preaching service for this society previously, there is no record of it. Probably these were the first exercises of the kind. On Monday, September 15, 1828, Rev. Ebenezer Everett received five dol- lars for preaching, and, on October 10, 1828, he received an-
310
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
other payment, the amount this time being twenty-five dollars. He had probably preached on the Sundays from September 14, 1828, to October 5, 1828, both inclusive. On December 24, 1828, Benjamin H. Pitman received six dollars, probably for preach- ing on the preceding Sunday. There is also a mention in the records of services by a Rev. Mr. Colman, undoubtedly refer- ring to the Rev. Ebenezer Colman of Swanzey. Rev. JOHN SHERER (last name often spelled Shearer), who, so far as shown by the records, preached, on July 27, 1828, the first sermon to this society, was born in Bridgewater, Pa., in 1791; graduated at Hamilton College, in New York, in 1821, and from Andover Theological Seminary, in 1825; was ordained in September, 1825; was settled at Litchfield, N. H., and afterwards in other places; and died, place unknown to us, February 14, 1863, at the age of 72. Rev. EBENEZER EVERETT was born in Frances- town, N. H., August 31, 1789, and became a Presbyterian cler- gyman in the state of New York. He died at Graham, N. Y., April 28, 1877, at the age of 87. Rev. BENJAMIN HENRY PITMAN was born in Newport, R. I., November 28, 1789; or- dained, October 18, 1820; settled at Goffstown, N. H., and afterwards in other places out of the state; and died, place un- known to us, March 8, 1868, at the age of 78. Rev. EBENEZER COLMAN was born in Ashby, Mass., February 15, 1790; gradu- ated at Brown University, in 1815; ordained, October 14, 1818; had New Hampshire settlements in Swanzey and Lempster; and died, place unknown to us, June 15, 1859, at the age of 69. These first services were held in the hall of Asa Heald, accord- ing to the records.
While the Second Congregational Society occupied the meet- inghouse their proportion of the year, the town refused to grant them the use of the Town Hall; but, in 1829, the town "voted that the Second Congregational Society have leave to occupy the Town Hall twelve sabbaths, and that the First Congrega- tional Society have the same privilege."
In March, 1830, the vote of the town was, "that the Trini- tarian Congregational Society in Dublin have leave to occupy the Town Hall for purposes of religious worship the ensuing year, on condition that they relinquish their privilege of occu- pying the new meetinghouse on sabbath-days, and insure the Town House from injury by reason of their occupying the same." The society took the hall with the above condition and occupied it till their brick church was completed in 1836. In the meantime, different preachers were employed.
311
LATER CHURCHES
The Rev. SAMUEL HARRIS, the first pastor, preached to the society two years, from September 1, 1829. He was born in Ashburnham, Mass., August 18, 1774; ordained, October 9, 1805; had settlements in Windham and Dublin in New Hamp- shire, and afterwards in other states; and died, place unknown, September 6, 1846, aged 72.
This society erected a brick church, which stood near the present residence of John A. Gleason, which was dedicated, June 22, 1836, the sermon being delivered by Rev. Nathaniel Bouton, D.D., of Concord, N. H.
The second pastor of the church was Rev. JAMES TISDALE. Between the pastorates of Mr. Harris and Mr. Tisdale, a call had been extended to each of two persons. On July 6, 1833, a call was extended to Rev. Stephen Mores, who was born in Bradford, Mass., February 24, 1794; graduated from Dartmouth College, in 1821, and from the Andover Theological Seminary, in 1825. In New Hampshire, he had settlements in Merrimack and Troy. He refused the call to Dublin. He died, place un- known to us, May 22, 1855, aged 61. Another call was extended, December 14, 1835, to Rev. Preserved Smith, which was also declined. Mr. Smith was born in Winchester, September 11, 1801. He graduated at Amherst College, in 1828, and Andover Theological Seminary, in 1831. He had settlements in Carlisle, Mass., and Pittsfield, N. H., and died at Philadelphia, Pa., December 29, 1853, at the age of 52. Mr. Tisdale was born in Taunton, Mass., November 7, 1799; graduated at Brown Uni- versity, in 1821; was ordained, September 29, 1830; and began his ministry in Guildhall, Vt. He began preaching in Dublin, May 1, 1836, and was officially engaged three successive years, from June 1, 1836. His next pastorate was in Gilsum; whence he went to the Central West, and died at Tonica, Ill., February 28, 1863, at 63 years of age. He was a man of various learning, earnest and active in the cause of popular education, and a ready debater in the Lyceum. As he was about to remove his family to Gilsum, in 1841, the following resolution was unani- mously adopted at a meeting of the Dublin Lyceum: -
"Resolved, That the thanks of the members of the Dublin Lyceum be presented to the Rev. James Tisdale for the interest which he has taken in our exercises during his residence in town, and for the effi- cient aid which he has rendered by delivering lectures, writing for and conducting the paper, making reports on subjects assigned, and engaging in the debates; and that we wish him and his family success and prosperity in the new field of labor he is about to occupy."
312
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
Rev. HENRY ADAMS KENDALL, the third pastor of the church, was born in Leominster, Mass., August 6, 1810, and graduated at the Gilmanton, N. H., Theological Seminary, in 1840. He received a call from this church and society to settle as their minister, in compliance with a vote of the society of August 24, 1840, in concurrence with the corresponding vote of the church. Mr. Kendall's reply to the church was as follows: -
"To the Committee of the Trinitarian Congregational Church in Dublin.
"CHRISTIAN BRETHREN, - Having been called in the providence of God, to labor with you for a season in the cause of Christ, and hav- ing now received a call from you to become your pastor, I have sought divine direction in regard to my continuing with you; and, feeling that God has opened the way for me still to labor with and for you, in pro- moting his kingdom in this Place, I do, therefore, accept your call, praying that the God of all grace would enable us to do his will in the faithful discharge of the duties of our relations one to another, and to our common Lord. - And subscribe myself yours in Christian love and fellowship,
HENRY A. KENDALL."

"DUBLIN, October 20, 1840.

"Church-meeting, May 14, 1842, at the meetinghouse; opened by reading Matt. XVIII. 21-35, and prayer.
"The following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted, viz .:
"Believing that holding slaves is contrary to the spirit of the gospel, and consequently inconsistent with Christian character, we, therefore, as a church of Christ, -
"Resolve, 1. That we deplore the existence of the sin of slavery in the church. 2. That we cannot and do not recognize the slave-holder continuing such, as a worthy follower of Jesus Christ. 3. That we cannot fellowship those who thus walk, as we think, contrary to the gospel rule, and, therefore, must not invite them to our communion."
We do not know whether any special circumstance occa- sioned the passing of these resolutions. The contingency of a slave-holder presenting himself at the communion service in this church was so remote that the resolutions seem superflu- ous, although the principles contained therein were just and might properly have been annunciated by all churches.
June 4, 1850, Rev. H. A. Kendall requested a dismission. An ecclesiastical council was called, and met, July 18, 1850. The result of the council was, that the pastoral relations be- tween Rev. Mr. Kendall and his people be dissolved. The fol- lowing is an extract from said result: -
"In coming to this decision, the council are happy that nothing has come to their knowledge which injuriously affects the Christian and ministerial character of the pastor; but, on the contrary, they are highly gratified in witnessing the meekness which he has manifested, and particularly his earnest desire and willingness to make sacrifices for the future peace and prosperity of the church of Christ in this place; and it gives us pleasure to recommend him as a devoted and faithful minister of the gospel."
The next pastorate of Mr. Kendall was at East Concord, N. H. While in Dublin, he married Miss Harriet G., daughter
314

of Isaac Appleton, by whom he had three children, the young- est of whom died young at East Concord.
February 4, 1851, the Trinitarian Congregational Church voted unanimously to present a call to the Rev. ALONZO HAYES to become the fourth pastor of the church. Mr. Hayes was born in Barrington, N. H., August 22, 1810, the son of John Wingate and Mary (Hale) Hayes. He graduated at Dartmouth College, in 1839. He was a teacher at Washington, D. C., 1839-1840. He studied for the ministry there, with Rev. Mr. McLane, and at the Union Theological Seminary, 1840-1841. He graduated at the Andover Theological Seminary, in 1842. He was ordained at West Barnstable, Mass., May 24, 1843, and was dismissed, July 9, 1850. The answer of Mr. Hayes to the Dublin church was as follows: -
"RESPECTED BRETHREN, - The many marks of kindness you have shown me, and the interest you have manifested in my labors among you, encourage me to believe that a minister will find among you those motives to diligence and those sources of happiness in the prosecution of his work in the ministry, which are denied to many in this changing age, when so many seem indifferent both to the gospel and those who preach it.
"When I regard your circumstances as a church and people, I feel deeply interested in your welfare, and earnestly desire that God would pour out his spirit and quicken his people, and bring many souls into the fold of Christ.
"Difficulties must be met and sacrifices made by me. But these are things the minister of Christ must expect, and which I have long since resolved should never deter me from laboring in the field where the providence of God seemed to call. Encouraged to believe that I am acting under the direction of the Great Head of the church, on whom I rely for his blessing and guidance, I accept the invitation of this church and society to become their pastor, believing that the friends of Christ will ever cooperate with me in every good work, and never cease to pray that my labor among you may be blessed.
"I accept your invitation, provided you give me three sabbaths in a year, and pay the salary semi-annually.
"Yours truly,
ALONZO HAYES."
"Dea. ABIJAH RICHARDSON, Committee
Dea. JESSE MORSE, of the
BENJ. P. HARDY, Church and Society."
"DUBLIN, February 13, 1851."
We find the following entry upon the records of the church, respecting the installation of Mr. Hayes: -
315
LATER CHURCHES
"Pursuant to letters-missive from the Trinitarian Congregational Church in Dublin, an ecclesiastical council convened, April 30, 1851, at 10 o'clock, A.M., in the meetinghouse in Dublin, for the purpose of taking into consideration the expediency of installing the Rev. ALONZO HAYES as pastor of the church and society in that place. The churches represented in Council were the following: -
Keene, Z. S. BARSTOW, D.D., pastor; Bro. CHAS. KEYES, delegate. Marlborough, Rev. GILES LYMAN, pastor; Dea. SIMEON WHIT- COMB, delegate.
Townsend, Mass., Rev. L. H. SHELDON, pastor; Bro. NOAH BALL, delegate.
Jaffrey, Rev. L. TENNEY, pastor; Bro. JNO. FROST, delegate.
Harrisville, Rev. WILLIAM G. TUTTLE, pastor; Bro. ABNER S. HUTCHINSON, delegate.
East Jaffrey, Rev. J. E. B. JEWETT, pastor; Dea. LIBERTY MOORE, delegate.
Nelson, Bro. CHARLES H. WHITNEY, delegate.
"The Rev. Dr. Barstow was chosen moderator, and Rev. J. E. B. Jewett scribe. Prayer was offered by the moderator. Papers were then presented by the pastor-elect certifying his standing in the church of Christ, and as a minister of the gospel; also papers signifying that a call had been extended and accepted by him, all which papers were found to be satisfactory. The candidate then presented a brief of his theological views and opinions.
"An examination then followed, which was thorough, and was unanimously voted to be satisfactory. The parts for the public exer- cises of the afternoon were then assigned, as follows: -
Introductory prayer and reading of the Scriptures, Rev. GILES LYMAN.
Sermon by Rev. L. H. SHELDON.
Installing prayer by Z. S. BARSTOW, D.D.
Charge to the pastor by Rev. L. TENNEY.
Fellowship of the churches by Rev. WILLIAM G. TUTTLE.
Address to the people by Rev. J. E. B. JEWETT.
Concluding prayer by Rev. D. McCLENNING (supplying Peter- borough).
Benediction by the pastor.
"The council then adjourned for dinner. The above parts were all performed agreeably to assignment. The council then adjourned sine die.
"Attest: Z. S. BARSTOW, Moderator. J. E. B. JEWETT, Scribe."
The pastorate of Mr. Hayes was brief. On the first of March, 1853, he ceased from the active duties of the office, but was not formally dismissed until December 12, 1855. He moved to the
316
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
District of Columbia, and took up his residence at Hall's Cross Roads, Alexandria, Va., where he died, July 15, 1858, lacking but a few weeks of being 48 years of age.
At the time that Mr. Hayes left, the number of members of the church was forty-six. The deacons were Jesse Morse and Abijah Richardson, but the records fail to show the dates of election.
From this time, the records of the church are quite defective, and those of the Society are very meagre. We have obtained a little additional information from Hazen's "Congregational and Presbyterian Ministry and Churches of New Hampshire." Considerable matter is likewise supplied by Lawrence's "New Hampshire Churches," also by Carter's "Native Ministry of New Hampshire."
After Mr. Hayes left, there was only occasional preaching, for a time. Rev. GEORGE SOLON KEMP supplied a year from the first of June, 1854. He was born in Sullivan, N. H., August 8, 1816; studied at the Kimball Union Academy, at Meriden; and grad- uated at the Bangor Theological Seminary, in 1851. Before coming to Dublin, he had preached in Whitneyville, Me .; Jonesboro, Me .; Whiting, Me., and Holmes Hole, Mass., 1851- 1852. He was ordained at Windham, Vt., February 28, 1856; dismissed, April 17, 1860. He supplied, for short periods, New Salem, Mass .; Roxbury, N. H .; West Newfield and Parsons- field, Me .; West Brooksville, Me .; and East Douglas, Mass. He died at Lebanon, Conn., May 3, 1900. He was the fifth pastor of the Dublin church.
Rev. EDWARD FARRINGTON ABBOTT was the sixth pastor of the church. He was born in Andover, Mass., December 24, 1816. He did not receive a classical education. He graduated from the Gilmanton Theological Seminary, in 1846. He was ordained at Milton, N. H., August 10, 1846, at the First Church, and was dismissed, May 10, 1848. He was at Loudon, N. H., from 1849 to 1854. He was installed in Dublin, December 12, 1855. He had received a call from the church, November 26, 1855, and from the society on the same day. Mr. Abbott ac- cepted the call, December 6, 1855. The following are the min- utes of the installing council: -
"In accordance with letters missive from the Trinitarian Congre- gational Church and Society in Dublin, to take into consideration the dismission of Rev. A. Hayes, and the installation of Rev. E. F. Abbott over said church and society, the following pastors and delegates convened at the house of Dea. Luke Richardson, on Thursday,
