In this respect Mr. Savage again makes a presumptuous statement, not warranted by the true facts in the case. The original deed and the le- gal copies did or do have the animal or other devices affixed to the res- pective signatures of the grantors, notwithstanding other statements to the contrary.

THE WHEELWRIGHT DEED.
But the most important evidence introduced by Mr. Savage and other opponents of the Wheelwright deed, is a letter purporting to have been written by Walter Neal and Thomas Wiggin to John Mason. This let- ter is dated at Northam, August 13, 1633, and is relative to surveying lands in Exeter, Hampton and Portsmouth. There is another letter speaking of the same land, nearly word for word, but dated August 13, 1632. The letter in 1633. is put on file first, but for what reason no one knows or why two letters are written alike, or why the date should be one ycar different.
It appears that these letters may be forged, but no reason can be as- signed why such letters were written or what ends can be answered by them. The dates of these letters indicate that they were written seven years before Dover was known as Northam; six years before Winnecum- et was known as Hampton, and twenty years before Strawberry Bank was known as Portsmouth, yet these letters speak about the towns of Hampton, Northam and Portsmouth. It also speaks about Wheelwright and Exeter. There is evidently something wrong about these letters, but we are unable to see what connection they have with the validity of the Wheelwright deed any more than with Dover or Portsmouth. Mr. Sav- age and other parties aver that if these letters are forgeries, the deed must also be a forgery. They carry the idea that they were written for the purpose of sustaining the Wheelwright deed. If these letters had ever been introduced in any legal form to prove the authenticity of this deed by parties in its interest, there would be some grounds for these statements. But who can honestly believe that persons wishing to sus- tain the validity of this deed would concoct such blundering letters as these, for the principal evidence to prove it to be a genuine instrument. The parties who wrote those letters doubtless knew the history of those towns quite as well as Mr. Savage, and purposely placed Portsmouth twen- ty, Northam seven, and Hampton six years before they were ever thought of, to make it appear ridiculous in the eyes of the public. Now we ask in all candor in view of the foregoing facts on this point, if it does not- look more rational that the enemies of the Wheelwright claims drafted these letters? If there was a purpose in writing these letters to connect them with the deed, there is no doubt but they were written for the pur- pose of defeating, rather than sustaining it.
The other arguments advanced by Mr. Savage to destroy the authenticity of the deed are in form atheistical and deistical, viz. reasoning and inter- rogatories, and are put on the same grounds that Infidels use to discred- it the authenticity of the Bible-such as did Cain marry his sister ; or how could he build the city of Enoch in the land of Nod, with no one but him- self, wife and son to inhabit it. Such questions and reasoning without any common sense, consideration would entirely destroy, in the minds of the people, the truth of the Bible. They are questions that cannot be answered in detail because they are not given. So with any ancient his- tory, it is condensed at every new edition to make room for some of more modern date. So with the Wheelwright deed. When the ques- tion is asked " how could so many witnesses, grantors and grantees be

THE WHEELWRIGHT DEED.
gathered at Squamscot Falls, so far in the wilderness without roads, &c., it is better fitting to come from a child or a Bible infidel then from an acknowledged intelligent man. All we have is this; there is a deed which has been on record for nearly one hundred and fifty years, show- ing that certain grantors give to certain grantees a large tract of land in Rockingham County .* History has handed down in brief that nearly all the parties mentioned in that deed lived at its date, but the full de- tails of all their social relations, their days of earthly enjoyment, and their many hours of deep affliction, no biographer has ever penned.
In summing up all the reasons and arguments of Mr. Savage and others why the deed is a forgery, in connection with other facts which are sug- gested as to its validity, we are led to the following reasoning.
Mr. Savage carries the idea, in the commencement, that the parties who drafted that deed were men of more than ordinary ability, owing to its beauty, clerklike length, and its provisional details. But after this, his whole arguments go to prove, that the parties connected with this forged deed (as he calls it) are the most imbecile set of men who ever made any pretensions to transact business, or to common intelligence. This deed (as he proves it) was a continuous set of blunders from its beginning to the end, as to dates and historical facts. He proves satisfac- torily to himself that at the purported date of the deed, there was no man in the country with the talent to draft it, no grantors that could be present, and that the other twelve persons were not in this country at the date of its execution.
The first time this deed was ever brought into court was in the case of Allen vs. Waldron, in 1707, and over one hundred years before any at- tempt was made to prove thatit was a forgery. Now if it was a forged deed it was executed near that date, and for that trial, for at prior trials rela- tive to similar claims it was not produced. If it was a forgery who were the parties to this rascality? John Pickering and Charles Story were the Counsel. Allow that both were base enough to lend their hands to such iniquity, would they show such ignorance at that date as to the history of the parties connected with this deed? Would they naturally have had nothing right and everything wrong? The true facts are, that Mr. Pick- ering and Mr. Story were well versed in the history of the early settlers in that section at the date of this trial, and they both had seen many per- sons who lived in the days of Wheelwright and other parties mentioned in the deed. We'ask in all candor and reason, if any unprejudiced per- son can fully believe, that these men, knowing the wary counsel they had
* In 1737-38 when the boundary line was pending between Massachusetts and New-Hamp- shire, (which was finally established in 1741,) the authorities of Massachusetts introduced the Wheelwright deed as evidence to prove that the division line between the two States should be so established as to include all the territory embraced in this deed, as it mentioned in its pro- visions that persons living within the limits stated, should be under the jurisdiction of Massa- chuestts.
These papers are now preserved in the Capitol at Concord, and are pronounced as forgeries by the State, who once produced them to secure nearly one half million acres of land now owned by the State of New-Hampshire.

THE WHEELWRIGHT DEED.
to contend with, also the learned court who watched every movement as the cause progressed would have shown such imbecility as to have draft- ed a deed and to have all the parties connected with it to be in such a position as to be impossible to be present when it was executed. They showed they had some faint history about some of the persons connected with this deed, for there is no doubt but all of them were once alive, and lived in New-Hampshire at some date. They must also have known about Wheelwright at the time of this court, for he was not an obscure man in the carly history of New-Hampshire or New-England-the oppo- site counsel knew him well for his name figured in this case. Under these circumstances does it look reasonable, that Mr. Pickering would write it himself or allow such a deed to be brought into court as evi- dence, when the opposite counsel were liable to know it was a forgery?
Men who concoct forgery or counterfeit weigh the matter in all its bearings, before they commence, and intend it will imitate and appear genuine. It is seldom they ever make more than one mistake, and that is generally in the mechanical part. Mr. Savage attempts to prove that . this Wheelwright deed is a total mistake in every respect, and not right in any. To us it appears like some trials in court where all the evidence on one side, is so positive on every point that their case becomes weak. If he had brought sufficient evidence to prove one or two important points relative to the authenticity of the deed, it might have looked ra- tional, but instead, he proves that there were no grantors, no grantees, and but one witness out of the ninc in this country and that one would not have signed it; that no person had the talent to have written such a deed, and to cap the climax the 17th day of May was the Sabbath day. There never was on record, or ever heard of, such a total mistake, and not one thing right, where deception was intended to be used, as the forgery of the Wheelwright deed-and the great mystery is that people living over one hundred years after the transaction, can find out the true dates bet- ter than those living at or near the time it is said the forgery was com- mitted.
This deed has been sustained by the courts of the State, by Dr. Bel- knap, by Governor William Plumer, first President of the New-Hamp- shire Historical Society, Nathaniel Adams, and many others who could be mentioned. In 1720, the people who settled in Londonderry pur- chased their right of Colonel John Wheelwright who had claim to this land through this Wheelwright deed, and it now stands recorded as a legal document. We candidly ask are a majority of the people of New- Hampshire prepared to lend their hands to have this deed expunged from the legal records of. Rockingham County as a forgery? For over one hundred years this deed has been considered a genuine document, and has been an important connecting link in the early history of southern New-Hampshire. From this deed starts the first history of Exeter, Lon- donderry, Chester Epping and many other towns in that section of the State, and it has been sustained by our courts and all our historians up to 1800,
643
THE WHEELWRIGHT DEED.
It may be a forgery as stated by Mr. Savage-but before it is fully dropped from New-Hampshire's early history, there should be stronger evidence and more conclusive arguments adduced than have yet appear- ed, in our opinion, for any son of New Hampshire to lend his aid to its obliteration .*
Since writing the foregoing, relative to the Wheelwright Deed, the Rev. Dr. Bouton, State Historian, has carefully prepared a paper on this important subject, and after weighing all the points touching this deed, he has become fully convinced that it must be a forgery.
We make no issue with Dr. Bouton, for his historical research is far beyond what we can ever hope to attain. But our only regret is, that this conclusion has been deferred to so late a period, and that it has no been placed in the Provincial Records where it rightfully belongs.
* It is to be hoped that before another history of New-Hampshire is written, prominent men connected with the New-Hampshire Historical Society will fully investigate this question and decide whether the people of this State can live under this deed, or to have it expunged from the early records of New-Hampshire.
