At an agricultural fair, where George W. Nesmith was present. his attention was called to a decision upon the merits of two animals, wherein one had an award in money and the other, a
872
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
diploma. A person remarked that the money award was made to the wrong animal, and he further said,-" If I were that ani- mal that has received the diploma, I would do with it as Daniel Webster did with his : I would tear it up in the presence of the committee on bulls, and tread it under my feet." Mr. Nesmith said he related this to Mr. Webster soon after, and he said there was not a word of truth or semblance of it in the story. He said,-" It was true the valedictory lay between me and another very worthy member of the class, and I thought I deserved the honor, and many of my classmates thought so too, and I felt not a little chagrined ; but you don't suppose I was so indiscreet as to show it, much more to tear up my diploma, which I then prized as the most choice treasure a young man could possess. Be- sides, I should have been obliged to decline the honor, for I had already been selected by my class to deliver an address before the Fraternity, which I preferred at that time to the honor of being valedictorian." This has been told me within two years by Mr. Nesmith, and he has assured me that the late Professor Shurtleff told him the same in refutation of this story. Judge Vesey, of Rutland, Vermont, had his attention called to this matter by the publication of Mr. Allen's article in the Spectator, and he replied to it in the Century Magazine, and relates there the same thing told him years ago by Professor Shurtleff, in complete refutation of the diploma fabrication.
But to return to the subject : After this episodical defence of Dr. Wood's classical fame, Ezekiel taught school one winter in Salisbury and two winters in Sanbornton. In the spring of 1804, three years after he entered college, he began a private school in Boston, which he taught for a year. So studious was he, that three years from his entrance into college he went to Boston, and returned at commencement, passing his examina- tions and earning his degree, thus accomplishing in three years what Daniel did in four. So reduced did his father's finances become, that he could no longer furnish the boys with funds. Ezekiel was sent money by Daniel during his last year at Han- over, and Daniel earned this money at Conway, by copying deeds in the Register's office. The father continued to hold the office of Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, to which he was appointed in 1791, till his death in 1806.
873
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
In the discharge of all the duties of citizen, soldier, magis- trate, parent, Christian. Judge Webster was a man of whom his neighbors, his townsmen, his country, and his illustrious children might be justly prond. Of all the brave men who stood watch and ward over the frontier of civilization in New Hampshire, none displayed more fortitude than he. He had the heart of a lion, and the sweet, tender sympathy of a girl.
When Daniel was admitted to the bar in 1805, he came to Boscawen and opened an office in order that he might be near his honored father, to administer to his wants and to comfort him in his old age. In 1807, having paid the debt of gratitude as well as he could to these "excellent parents," and having laid them tenderly away to that rest which remaineth for them, he transferred his office and most of his business to Ezekiel, and moved to Portsmouth to continue the career that in the end made him the most illustrious son of this republic.
The beautiful and tender tribute which he paid to his father at Saratoga on August 19, 1840, is the sweetest and most fra- grant expression of filial love and childlike veneration within the limits of language.
Speaking of the log-cabin in which the "elder brother and sisters were born," he said,-" If I ever fail in affectionate ven- eration for him who reared it and defended it from savage vio- lence and destruction, cherished all the domestie virtues beneath its roof, and, through the fire and blood of a seven years' revo- lutionary war, shrunk from no danger, no toil, no sacrifice, to serve his country and to raise his children to a condition better than his own. may my name and the name of my posterity be blotted forever from the memory of mankind."
In the history of Boscawen and Webster by Coffin. there is what purports to be a likeness of Ezekiel Webster. It bears but little resemblance to him. It has not the princely head of the original. It has a stiff " tape and buckram" appearance. It lacks the full, thickly covered head of snowy-white hair, and the open, manly countenance and clean-cut features, of the original. Daniel, looking with eyes of brotherly tenderness, saw in him, as he lay in his coffin, " the finest human form he ever laid eyes on."
At the age of forty-nine, when his hopes and prospects were
874
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
ripening, the silent summons was served upon him, and he passed from earth to heaven, from the inferior court below to the supreme court above. Standing erect before a jury in Merrimack county, with the judge, the bar, and a large andi- ence listening intently to his words, his arms hanging gracefully by his side, he ended a branch of his argument, and instantly closed his eyes in death. In the midst of the solemn scene, George Sullivan, the eloquent attorney-general, who was to fol- low him in his argument, exclaimed " What shadows we are, and what shadows we pursne !"
Ephraim Hutchins, then twenty-three years of age, whom Daniel Webster well knew, and at whose father's tavern he was accustomed to stop when in Concord, started immediately in a private conveyance for Boston to carry the sad intelligence to Daniel. The roads were muddy, and badly cut up by heavier traffic. Frequent changes of horses enabled him to reach Boston late in the night of the same day or early in the morning of the next. Young Hutchins knew where Mr. Webster lived, and, driving directly to his house on Summer street, knocked at the door. A window in the chamber above was immediately raised, and Mr. Webster was visible. The wagon stopping in front of his house in the stillness of the night had given notice of the arrival of some one before the signal knock at the door. "Who is it?" said Mr. Webster. "Ephraim Hutchins," was the reply. "Is Ezekiel dead ?" came the enquiry from the win- dow. "Yes," was the response ; "while addressing the jury in the court-house in Concord, he fell dead in an instant with- out a moment's warning." "I thought," replied Mr. Webster, " that must be the errand you came on when I heard the wheels of your carriage stop in front of my door." There was no tele- graph, no railroad then, and no public conveyanee except the stage-coach, and the condition of the roads April 10th, in the night, made the journey, over seventy-five miles long, a severe one. Mr. Hutchins related to the writer forty years after, with tears standing in his eyes nearly all the time, the incidents of this journey, and the never-to-be forgotten interview with Mr. Webster just described. Nineteen years after the death of their loving and beloved brother, Daniel Webster, in kind remem- brance of this service, requested President Taylor to appoint
875
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
Major Hutchins post-master of Concord, and it was done. From 1849 to 1853, the man who through the darkness of the lone night had hurried over the long and weary way with early tidings of this lamented death, most faithfully and most accept- ably discharged the duties of the office.
NEW HAMPSHIRE A GOOD STATE TO EMIGRATE FROM.
In October, 1844, being then a member of Dartmouth college in the freshman class, I was obliged to visit Boston on business, and on my way took in a Democratie mass meeting at Salis- bury. It was a cold, bleak, dreary day, and the meeting was in an open field at the South Road, and Charles H. Peaslee and Levi Woodbury were the field orators. It was so cold that an adjournment was had to the hotel, and the last speaker was Franklin Pierce. I had never before seen him, and I was capti- vated by his manners, his personal appearance, and the beanty and elegance of his diction. In the course of his speech he said,-" It was the remark of a distinguished son of New Hampshire, who was born and reared on your soil, and who hasn't drawn a free breath for the last fifteen years, that New Hampshire is a good state to emigrate from." He put especial emphasis upon the word from, and I think I am not saying any- thing extravagant, when I affirm that no man could give more significance to a word or a sentence by his manner and the snap of his head, than Franklin Pierce. He did not call Mr. Webster's name, but every person in the crowd knew perfectly well that the distinguished son of New Hampshire, who was born and reared on the soil of Salisbury, was Daniel Webster, and many knew that he referred to his having been paid a lib- eral sum to accept a position in the Senate of the United States with a salary of eight dollars a day there. when he could obtain in the practice of his profession in Boston many times that amount. At a " colored beverage " entertainment in Franklin in 1850, after Daniel Webster had made his celebrated 7th of March speech, General Pierce said to Mr. Webster, when speen- lating a little upon the probability of the Whigs' dropping him on account of that speech and other speeches supplementary to that, -.. If the Whigs drop you the Democrats will take you up,
876
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
and they will raise you so high that your feet will scorn to kick the stars."
At a public dinner given at the Eagle hotel, on its completion in 1852, when Franklin Pierce had been shown to be the choice of the people for the presidency of the United States, Col. John H. George, who always echoed his friend's declarations, re- marked when called upon for some postprandial remarks, " Daniel Webster nsed to say that New Hampshire was a good state to emigrate from," not emphasizing the word from. Mat- thew Harvey, George G. Fogg, Asa MeFarland, General Pierce, Charles H. Peaslee, and many other gentlemen distinguished in public affairs, were present, and no one seemed to doubt that Daniel Webster made this remark. I have heard it on other public occasions, more out of the state than in. I have seen it in print ; but Daniel Webster never made the remark. No such idea ever entered into his brain. He doubtless did think that it was a credit to a man to hail from New Hampshire. He might say "We raise men up in New Hampshire ;" and he might have said, " I am a New Hampshire man," the same as the Roman was accustomed to say, " I am a Roman citizen," but that he ever said or intimated that New Hampshire was not a good and noble state to be born in, to live in, and to die and be buried in, is untrue. No man ever manifested more love, or cherished more affectionate regard, for his native state than Daniel Webster, and it was one of the studies of his life how he might the more appropriately declare his devotion to the land of his birth, the home of his childhood, and the state where the triumphs of his early manhood were achieved. But I am not left without a witness in this matter. My lamented friend, General Walter Harriman, said to me many times during the four or five years before his death, that he had a conversation with Peter Harvey upon this saying, and Mr. Webster denied with much feeling that he ever publicly or privately made any such remark in that form or anything that could be construed into it, and that every word of it was a pure fiction. Peter Harvey is gone, General Harriman has just stepped over the threshold of immortality, but George W. Nesmith " still lives."
He has told me many times, and within a few months, that he had several interviews with Mr. Webster, and he said, "I never
877
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
said it, nor anything of that import. My utterances have been rather public, and it seems as though some one could tell the time, the place, or the occasion where I made such a remark, or any other remark not respectful to the land of my birth. The remark was many years ago attributed to Jeremiah Mason, but I do not think he ever made it."
About 1815, Ezekiel Webster and Richard Fletcher were arrayed against each other, before a board of referees in Sal- isbury, where a young school-master was complained of for unmercifully punishing one of his pupils. The referees were Andrew Bowers, Benjamin Pettengill, and Jabez Smith. The trial excited a great deal of interest, and it is not too much to say that these attorneys were the best advocates in that section of the state. Webster was for the little lad, and Fletcher for the school-master, and the following is the exordium of Web- ster's argument : " May it please you, gentlemen referees : It has got to be the case now-a-days, that when a young man gets to be sixteen or seventeen years of age, goes to an academy school six weeks, gets a five-dollar French watch in his pocket, a rattan as long as your arm, and a ruffle shirt as wide as a hand-saw, he is fit to teach school." Ezekiel Webster has been dead fifty-four years, but the school-master still lives, and Daniel Webster, in 1841, caused him to be appointed United States attorney for the district of New Hampshire.
In the columns of an old newspaper published in the northern part of New Hampshire, is the following story, entitled "Daniel Webster and the Teamster." " Near the end of the last century a teamster from Grafton county came to a hill near the house of Ebenezer Webster, father of Daniel, in what is now Franklin, formerly Salisbury. This hill was too hard for his team, and he sought aid at the house of Mr. Webster. Daniel, then a youth, and not very well clad nor very genteel, was sent to his assistance. Years passed, and the teamster's property was in peril. An eminent lawyer, Moses P. Payson, of Bath, was employed as his counsel. In the trial of the cause he needed the aid of able associate counsel, and secured the ser- vices of Daniel Webster, then a rising young lawyer in New Hampshire. When told by Mr. Payson who it was that was to assist him. the teamster replied that he had little hope of their
878
DANIEL AND EZEKIEL WEBSTER.
success, as he recognized in him the swarthy boy whom he had met years before, and he did not look as though he would make a great lawyer. At the opening of the case the desponding client took a seat in a remote corner of the court-room, feeling apparently as little interest in the result of the trial as any of the spectators. When Mr. Webster opened his argument the client found that this lawyer was really something of a man. As he proceeded, his estimate of his ability increased. When he closed it was evident to everybody in the court-room that Mr. Webster had won the case, and had convinced all present that he was no ordinary man. The jury returned a righteous verdict, and the grateful client, who twice in early life had lost his all, said to Mr. Webster with deep feeling .- " I regard you as an angel sent for my deliverance. My wife and children will bless you to their latest day for what you have done for us."
Gentlemen, brothers, and members of the bar of Grafton and Coös counties : I have long sought some public occasion to give these utterances in respectful regard to the memory of him who was school-mate, neighbor, and friend of my mother ; who was genial, gracious, and kind to his townsman, my father; and it is fitting and proper that I should utter them here before this glow- ing mass of intelligence, before these cultured gentlemen, among the great mountains, whose gleaming peaks and towering heights tell me of majesty, sublimity, grandeur, and beanty, where genius drew in the inspiration of a great life beneath these extreme northern skies, from whence this Jupiter Tonans of America first drew down the bolts of that matchless thunder which eventually went reverberating around the world.
