The accompanying map, covering about fifty square miles, includes the principal ranges and extends eastward two hundred and forty rods over the original line of Haverhill, southward nearly to the line of Windham, westward to Litchfield, and northward to Manchester. The Double, English, Eayers, Aikens, High, South Double, Three Quarter Mile, Half Mile, Dock, Hill, Canada East, Middle, West, and Fourth Ranges, and a large number of short ranges not distinctively named, are included. For more than forty years, attempts
have been made by various persons to draw a plan of the original allotments of land, and it is not claimed that the present map is absolutely perfect. Some of these persons had the first two volumes of the town records and worked for months inces- santly to put the descriptions in order upon a chart, but in the end each pronounced the result a failure and the undertaking impossible. Among those who gave a large amount of time to this patchwork without being able to make the pieces join together, were John N. Anderson, Col. Robert Thompson, Andrew W. Mack, Washington Per- kins, Joseph R. Clark, and Robert C. Mack. The last named, with help of his brother, who was a surveyor, approached the nearest to mapping the township, but his attempts failed in the end. He was able to prepare the ranges and locate the original settlers, and had plans in detatched por- tions for nearly every part of the town, but he found it impossible to join them together into one map. As already stated, this first and only map of the township, showing a plan of the farms, is not absolutely perfect, but the main features are cor- rect, and it contains all the elements necessary for the construction of the most accurate and com- plete drawing, as it was made from two indepen- dent copies of the town records, made for the purpose of continued and uninterrupted work, and indexed for this special undertaking. These two volumes of the town records arc paged differently from the originals in the keeping of the town clerk, and to facilitate any further improvement in this map or in others, numbers are placed on the map to indicate the pages in the records where full descriptions of the lots are to be found. The numbers with dashes below them indicate the pages of the second volume, and the others the pages of the first volume,

STATE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.
IN 1855 the state legislature authorized the the school has been under the management of a governor and council to appoint a board of three commissioners, empowered to buy a tract of land and erect buildings thereon, to provide a " house of reformation for juvenile male and female offenders against the law." Popular sen- timent at the time seemed to be hostile to the measure, and it required several years to demon-
strate its wisdom. Hon. Frederick Smyth of
Manchester, Hon. Matthew Harvey of Concord, and Hosea Eaton of New Ipswich were appointed commissioners, and they selected as the site for
the proposed institu-
tion the farm which
was once the home of Gen. John Stark, nearly two miles north of the Man- chester city hall, on the Merrimack river road, containing about one hundred acres. The price paid was $ 10,000, and another piece of ten acres was purchased soon after at a cost of $1,000. The build- ing, which cost $34,000, was begun in the spring of 1856 and was ready for occupancy in the spring of 1858. It was dedicated May 12 of that year, the address on the occasion being delivered by Hon. T. M. Edwards of Keene, author of the bill cstablishing the institution. The first superintendent of the school was Brooks Shattuck, who continued in charge until April, 1866, when he was succeeded by Isaac H. Jones, who remained about four years, and was followed by Edward Ingham. The latter also remained four years, and was then succeeded by John C. Ray, whose date of appointment was July 2, 1874. The institution continued to bear its original name until 1878, when it was changed to Reform School, and in 1882 it was given the name which it now bears. From its establishment

board of seven trustees, appointed by the governor and council, who have yearly chosen a superinten- dent. The law requires that one or more of the trustees shall visit the institution every two weeks, at which time the scholars shall be examined in the schoolroom and workshops. Once in three months a majority of the trustees are required to examine the institution in all its departments and make a report showing the results of their exami- nations. The superintendent, who is also treas- urer of the school, has charge of the funds, lands, buildings, and all other property. In addition to his other duties he is required to keep a register containing the name, residence, and age of each scholar, with the date and term of commitment and the time and manner of discharge. If any scholar is found in- corrigible and his continuance in school prejudicial to its management and discipline, steps arc taken to have him removed. Instances of this kind are not frequent, but they sometimes happen. The trustees have the right to bind out any scholar as an apprentice or servant to any inhabitant of the state of good moral and religious character, for any time not exceeding the term for which he was sent to the school. Any scholar distinguishing himself by his obedience, diligence, and good conduct, may be discharged by the trustces at the annual examina- tion, and the superintendent also has the power to let any of the boys or girls out on probation, if he sees fit to do so. All minors under seventeen years of age who may be delivered to the superin- tendent with a proper warrant for their detention, by a proper officer, are received at the school.

About 1,500 have been committed to the school from the very first, the only serions misfortune since its organization. The munber in the school April 1, 1895, was: boys, 101 ; girls, 17; total, 118. The institution is supported by an annual appro- priation of $6,000 from the state; by the interest on a legacy of $6,000 from the estate of James MeKeen Wilkins of Manchester; by the interest on a legacy of $3,000 from the estate of Moody Kent of Pembroke; by a legacy of $1,000 left by Miss Louisa Penhallow of Portsmouth for the purchase of books; by the interest on a fund of $400 established by Hon. Frederick Smyth, in memory of Emily Smyth, for the purchase of books to be distributed as prizes among meri- torious scholars ; and by the income from the shops and farm. For a number of years the annual income from the chair shop was nearly $5,000. There is also a factory in which stockings arc knitted by machinery, which has yielded a hand- some profit. The town from which any person is committed is required to pay to the trustces for his board or instruction a sum not exceeding $1.50 per week. The total annual receipts amount to about $15,000, and the expenditures about the same. The institution has grown and prospered
which it has met being an incendiary fire which nearly destroyed the building Dec. 20, 1865. The property was insured for $20,000, of which sum the appraisers decided to pay $17,000, which the trustees refused to accept. They claimed that the companies should either pay the full sum or put the building in as good condition as it was before the fire. The insurance companies finally agreed to do the latter, and the building was rebuilt. How poorly it was done was shown by the large amount of money expended since then for neccs- sary repairs and alterations. Some of the trustces regretted that the offer of the appraisers had not been accepted and that they had not expended the money themselves. After the fire the inmates were kept temporarily in the Stark house and the Gamble house, which stood near by. During their occupancy of the former it was sct on fire and consumed. In 1867 the Gamble cstate was pur- chascd at a cost of $2,590. Later additions to the property have been made by the purchase of the Prince estate for $5,000 and of sixty-five acres of pasture land in Weare and Deering. The farm now ranks as one of the best in New Hampshire. Many a boy has gone out from the institution and become a useful and re- spccted member of society, and many a girl has helped to make a happy home. Among those who have been inmates of the school the records show that one has become a successful physician, another a rail- way conductor, another a chief engineer of a fire department in a large city, while a host have become good farmers, good me- chanics, and sober, honest men. (See biographical sketch and portrait of Hon. John C. Ray, super- intendent and treasurer of the State Industrial School, page 264.)

Returning to Derry, he was employed for a while in a shoe shop, but his liking for active business caused him to locate in Manchester, where he bought out the old established clothing house of Cumner & Co. He introduced some modern im- provements into the store, and soon built up an ex- tensive business.

The family is descended from the brothers of this man, who were men of muscle and valuable aids to the king in his wars and quarrels, and who received large grants of land and titles of nobility in return for their fidelity. Careful inves- tigation shows that there are very few of the name who cannot trace their origin to this source. On his mother's side Mr. Poor is descended from Robert Boyce, a charter member of the town of Londonderry, and for forty years a magistrate of the colony of New Hampshire. The line of descent is Robert,' Alexander,2 Susan,3 William W.+ He also claims descent in the sixth generation from Robert Calef of Boston, who dared to con- tend with Cotton Mather and the clergy and magistrates of Massachusetts over the iniquitous witchcraft delusion. Calcf's published works were publicly burned for heresy in the yard of Harvard College in 1700. Mr. Poor, being the youngest member of his father's family, was obliged to remain at home to watch over his parents in their declining days, a duty he faithfully performed. His father died in 1884 at the age of eighty-seven years. In youth he received the usual education afforded by a country district school, and later at intervals studied several terms at Pinkerton Academy. No fixed curriculum was then pre- scribed at that institution, the student selecting and continuing such studies as suited his tastes. Mr. Poor became proficient in mathematics, pur- suing his studies to the end of the textbooks and beyond. On reaching his majority he was placed in many positions of trust. He was made a deputy sheriff before he was twenty-two years old, and later was selectman four years, representative to the general court two terms, member of the state constitutional convention in 1876, trial justice of Rockingham county for twenty-five years, and in 1895 was made first justice of the newly organizcd police court of Derry. He has also presided at twenty-seven town meetings in Derry, leading in this respect all predecessors. He has never sought office outside his own town, and has always dis- couraged the use of his name in connection with political honors. He always votes the Republican

JASON J. KIMBALL, son of Levi and Mar- His work in the schools was successful in the garet (Jones) Kimball, was born in Wind- highest degree, and hundreds are indebted to him ham, Vt., March 2, 1829. Both his parents were musical, and he early manifested a decided talent for his chosen profession. So proficient did he become in youth that at the age of sixteen he led a chorus of thirty-five voices, in which were six members of his own family. In 1856 he went to Boston and pursued his vocal studies under B. F. Baker, Mme. Frazer, and Myron W. Whitney, receiving instruction also from the best masters in harmony, John K. Paine, O. B. Brown, and Kellar. for all they ever learned of music. His rare ability as a musical director was demonstrated in May, 1895, at the opening concert of the Philhar- monic Society, when the public had the oppor- tunity of listening to the excellent work of a chorus of six hundred voices from the higher grades of the Manchester schools under his leader- ship. Throughout New Hampshire and adjoining states he was well known as a soloist, and he is still remembercd in Boston for the prominent part he took in the famous concerts of the Handel and Haydn society. His death occurred suddenly at his home on the evening of Sept. 27, 1895. There had been a rehearsal of the Unitarian choir, of which he was a member and leader, and after the singers had gone home Mr. Kimball was playing on an old Cremona violin which his brother had brought from Washington, and Mrs. C. E. Burn- ham was accompanying him on the piano. They had reached the last bar of the selection, Raff's Cavatina, which Mr. Kimball played with the most beautiful expression, when he suddenly made a discord. Without looking up, the accompanist said : "Don't stop !" but it was death's hand that made the discord, and the player, falling to the floor, expired before the cchoes of his music had dicd away. Death was duc to heart disease, from which deceased had suffered his first attack a few days previously. Possessed of a social, genial temperament, Mr. Kimball had the faculty of making friends and holding them, and his memory is cherished in loving regard by thousands, young JASON J. KIMBALL. and old. He was a member of the Masonic Order, thirty-second degree, Scottish Rite, of DeMolay Commandery, K. T., of Boston, and of the Mystic Shrine. Mr. Kimball was married in 1864 to Miss Celia B. Mann of South Deerfield, Mass., who survives him. She is a relative of Horace Mann, the educator.
During his long stay in Boston Mr. Kimball became prominent as a bass soloist of pronounced ability and a director of musical societies. Thc musical atmosphere in which he lived well fitted him for his future work. Coming to Manchester in 1872, he devoted the rest of his life to upbuild- ing and improving music in the city, and in this noble work no one has accomplished more than W TILLIAM SCOBY, a native of Ireland, died in Londonderry (N.
