MARRIAGES.
organized sustained preaching at intervals for nearly forty years. About the same date Rev. Zenas Adams, from Marlow, organized a Methodist church, which has ceased to exist.
Several Catholics, natives of the Emerald isle and their descend- ants, are now residents of the town, and a few persons are Spirit- ualists.
Mention has already been made of the fact that Mr. Chandler, who supplied the pulpit of the Congregational church for a time, was a Unitarian; several other Unitarian clergymen also occupied the pulpit at intervals during the time between the pastorates of Mr. Paige and Mr. Burgess.
The Miller excitement, in 1843, had its share of attention, and an apostle of what was known as the "Latter-Day Saints " visited the town, and once at least occupied the meeting-house, but it is not re- corded that he made any converts.
MEETING-HOUSES.
We have already given a detailed account of the building of the first and second meeting-houses.1 In addition we can only say that there is a tradition that a small Methodist meeting-house was built in the western part of the town, some years ago, but not a vestige of it remains.
In 1836 the Congregational church erected a two-story brick building, the lower story of which has from that time to the present been used for various religious purposes; before the meeting-house was repaired in 1851, this vestry (as it has always been called) was used mainly for public services in the winter. In 1879 the " slips" were removed, the room modernized, and at the present time it pre- sents quite an attractive appearance. The Baptist society used for its religious services the lower story of the "Lit. & Sci. Institution."
CHAPTER XI.
MARRIAGES.
THE following list of marriages has been prepared by Mrs. E. E. Hayward; some assistance has been rendered by others, but with

HISTORY OF HANCOCK, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
one or two exceptions the names here given she has taken from the original records. Four volumes of town and one of church records have been diligently searched, and we here give the result.
No attempt has been made to go behind the records, or to make any alterations, not even in spelling the names, unless there has been found to be good reason for so doing. No additions have been made, but as great care has been exercised, it is to be hoped that no mistakes will be found.
The arrangement may not be all that could be desired, but as the records were kept it could not well be otherwise. Previous to 1860, no definite plan was followed, but each person that solemnized marriages made his return sometimes several years afterwards, and the record was made where most convenient.
Although in one sense marriage may be deemed a civil contract, and a few of the persons whose names appear below were united in marriage by justices of the peace, yet as the great majority have recognized the fact that it is a divine ordinance, we have placed this record in close connection with the preceding chapter as a portion of the same general subject.
