WARWICK MASONIC LODGE.S

This was established in December, 1863, its com- plete organization dating from the Ist of January following. The first officers were Elisha M. Smith, W. M. ; Benjamin Corwin, S. W .; Charles W. Doug- lass, J. W. ; Edward T. Gould, S. D .; Nicholas K.

Crotty, J. D. ; James D. Roe, Sec. ; Maurice Hoyt, Treas .; Daniel Dikeman, Tyler.

The lodge have a room con- veniently arranged, with good furniture, and are in excellent financial condition, having vested funds to the amount of $5000.

WAWAYANDA LODGE, No. 34, I. O. O. F.

This was organized at Warwick village in 1867. It was a renewal of the old Goshen charter of very early date, which had been surrendered. Several of the members residing in Warwick, or removing there, desired to organize, and obtained the renewal. The books of the lodge were burned in January, 1879. It is understood, however, that the opening at War- wick was by five members,-Jesse Wood, William Smith, F. J. Haskins, Henry June, and John Mabee; that William R. Wood and John MeVey were in- itiated at the first meeting, and that among the first officers were Jesse Wood, N. G .; William Smith, V. G .; and William R. Wood, Sec. The lodge has continued in regular work since its formation. It has a vested fund of nearly $2000. The present officers (October, 1880) are A. P. Shaw, N. G. ; L. H. Peiltz, V. G .; F. Kohberger, R. S .; Dr. T. V. Roe, P. S .; Sylvester Case, Treas. ; S. T. Lazear, Chaplain.

PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.

This order has four granges in the town of War- wick; they have formed a convenient arrangement for purchasing at wholesale, for consultation over the best method of farming, for mutual help in disposing of the crops raised, and for social enjoyment. The first Master of Warwick Grange, No. 273, was James B. Wood, Jr. His son, Enos S. Wood, was secretary. At the present time John Sutton is the Master, and his daughter, Mrs. William D. Ackerman, is secretary. The other granges are located at Florida, Amity, and Lake Station. The one at Amity established and carries on a creamery.

WARWICK CORNET BAND.

This favorite organization with the citizens of War- wick was formed Dec. I, 1878, with fifteen members. It has the same number now, and mostly the same individuals. They have a very handsome uniform. Their instruments are of superior make and owned by the members, and their uniform is in good taste, not excelled in beauty or quality by any in the county.

* Prior to this was old St. Jolin's Lodge of Warwick, organized March 26, 1790. (See General History.)

THIE TEMPERANCE LEAGUE OF WARWICK.

This association was organized about three years since. Its objects are to develop public sentiment in favor of temperance, secure the election of commis- sioners of excise opposed to license, and by judicious action enforce the law as far as possible. It proposes to make an annual canvass of the town for the l'urther- ance of these plans. That it has met with a reason- THE WARWICK LIBRARY able degree of success is evident from the increased was founded by an association formed Dec. 12, 1814, at the house of Isaac Dolsen. The trustees named in the certificate were William W. Brooks, Job Noble, Rev. John J. Christie, Benjamin S. Hoyt, John W. Smith, Nathaniel Jones, and Robert Crary. A small library was bought, and the books put in circulation. It shows considerable literary taste at that early period that such an attempt was made. It lasted but a few vote in favor of no license. In March, 1879, 750 votes were cast on the excise question, of which 613 were in favor of license, and 137 against. In March, 1880, 982 votes were cast on the same question, 597 of which were for license, and 384 against. A majority of 576 reduced to 213, and on a largely increased vote, is sufficient encouragement to the society to go forward with its work. Its membership comprises the clergy- i years. The books were scattered, and the "War- wick Library" passed into history.

men of the place and many of the leading business men. Its present officers (October, 1880), are Rev. D.C. Litchfield, president; Rev. William E. Ketchum, vice-president ;* C. A. Crissey, secretary ; Grier Pier- son, treasurer.

Connected with this society is a glee club, led by E. B. Taylor, adding with its stirring songs and excel- lent music a feature of great interest to the meetings.

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF WAR- WICK VILLAGE.

This is a recent enterprise of a few Christian workers belonging to the various churches. It was organized in December, 1879. Miller's public hall was rented permanently by the association, and a general prayer-meeting established at three o'clock Sunday afternoons. This has been regularly main- tained to the present time, having a large attendance during the winter months, and well sustained through the summer season. No other definite work has yet been undertaken, but steps are being taken to open a public reading-room, and establish a library in con- nection with the same. It is also in contemplation to hold meetings to some extent in neighborhoods not supplied with religious services within a few miles of Warwick village. The present officers (October, 1880) are E. S. Colwell, president ; Henry P. Demerest, vice-president ; George A. Sanford, secretary ; Rens- selaer J. Wisner, treasurer.

THIE ARMY AND NAVY ASSOCIATION OF VETERANS AT WARWICK.

This was organized Jan. 1, 1880, and holds regular meetings on the first Tuesday evening of each month. All honorably discharged Union soldiers or sailors are entitled to membership. Its objects are mutual aid, social enjoyment, the bringing together of comrades

ciation decoration services were held the present year. The present officers (October, 1880) are James W. Benedict, Commander ; John W. Houston, Senior Vice-Commander; Norman L. Dill, Junior Vice- Commander ; William B. Van Houten, Adjutant ; James W. Mallery, Quartermaster ; Dr. T. H. Cooper, Surgeon ; Rev. D. C. Litchfield, Chaplain ; William J. Miles, Sentinel.

THE FRANKLIN LIBRARY

was legally organized March 10, 1814, with John M. Satterly as chairman of the meeting. The trustees named in the certificate were Charles Cummins, James Wood, John M. Satterly, Thomas Allison, Thomas Jackson, Benjamin I. Seward, and John J. Wheeler. The paper was verified by the chairman before Judge John Steward, March 19, 1814. This shows something of the literary enterprise at Florida in an early day.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF WARWICK.

This institution was organized in the winter of 1864. The articles of association were approved by the comp- troller of the currency March 14, 1864, and the bank was opened for business April 2d of the same year. The first board of directors consisted of John L. Welling, Samuel C. Welling, F. M. Woodhull, Grin- nell Burt, John Cowdrey, Richard Wisner, C. II. De- merest, George W. Sanford, and James A. Thomp- son. John L. Welling was the first president of the bank. He was succeeded by the present incumbent, C. H. Demerest, Jan. 29, 1878. John Cowdrey was chosen vice-president at the organization, and still holds that office. Mahlon Cooper was the first cashier. He was succeeded by Gabriel S. Ilolbert, Oct. 22, 1864. The present cashier, C. A. Crisses, followed Mr. Holbert, commencing his services Jan. 1, 1869. The capital of the bank was named at $75,000, but there was so much anxiety to secure the stock (five per cent. premium being offered before going into business) that it was immediately increased to $100,000. Business was done at first in rooms of the Van Duzer Building. The present. handsome and convenient edifice was erected by the bank in 1868, and occupied in March, 1869. The present board of directors (October, 1880) comprises the following

names: C. H. Demarest, John L. Welling, Thomas Welling, James C. Sly, P. E. Sanford, G. W. Sanford, Grinnell Burt, John Cowdrey, Richard Wisner.

WARWICK SAVINGS-BANK.

This institution was organized pursuant to the gen- eral act passed May, 1875. The bank opened for business Jan. 1, 1876, with the following officers and trustees : Thomas Burt, president and treasurer ; Thomas G. Pierson, first vice-president; William C. Eager, second vice-president; William J. Sly, William L. Ogden, DeWitt C. Jayne, Samuel Pelton, I. V. Wheeler, Cornelius J. Lazear, C. H. Wilson, James H. Holly, J. E. Waterbury, James Wisner, A. James Burt, John Ackerman, William M. Sanford, Thomas Welling. Thomas Burt was the first president, and was succeeded by James H. Holly, now in office. Thomas Burt has been treasurer from the first, and the general business is transacted by him. The sum on deposit now (October, 1880) is $182,000. This was the first bank organized under the new law of 1875.

THE WARWICK VALLEY FARMERS' MILK ASSOCIA- TION

executed a certificate of incorporation April 1, 1872. The objects were stated to be the following, viz. : "To work up and dispose of a surplus of milk whenever there shall be a flush of milk, or whenever in the opinion of the trustees, it shall be for the interest of the association to do so." The corporate stock was fixed at $12,000. The first trustees named were Jesse . Holbert, Nicholas N. Ryerson, Isaac V. Wheeler, George W. Sayer, Richard Wisner, Wm. L. Benedict, James Wisner, Alexander H. Galloway. The shares were to be 240, at $50 each.

Of this board, Mr. Isaac V. Wheeler is deceased, aud Mr. Ryerson retired ; John Vandevort and James Ball were chosen members, and the rest of the board remain the same as at the time of the organization. Thomas Welling has been president of the association from the first, and C. H. Demerest also secretary and That the Tories in the time of the Revolution had hiding-places in this town and routes of travel through treasurer. The company have a large and convenient building 70 by 40, and thoroughly supplied with the ; it is also probable, yet little or nothing is known con- best of modern fixtures and machinery. They ship cerning them. milk and cream to New York direct, manufacture When the excavations for the water-works was being made, a skeleton was dug up beside which there were some relics, as knee-buckles and other articles of dress. some butter, but do their largest business in cheese. Their cheese-room, when nearly filled, presents a fine sight. This property was purchased of Thomas Smith, who had been doing business in the same line for a time. BIRTHPLACE OF WILLIAM II. SEWARD.

THOMAS SMITHI'S CREAMERY.

This is also located at Warwick village, and is an unincorporated private enterprise. It was estab- lished soon after the sale of the other property to the above milk association. The shipment of milk and cream and the manufacture of butter and cheese (mostly the latter) constitute Mr. Smith's business here. The shipments are all to his own New York sales-house, where he is himself located.

THE PRODUCERS' MILK COMPANY, WARWICK,

was formed April 18, 1870. The objects were stated in the certificate as follows : "To purchase, make, manufacture, produce, or vend milk or cream." The capital stock was stated at $25,000, divided into 250 shares. The trustees named were Pierson E. San- ford, of Warwick ; David P. Brockway, of New York City ; Charles T. Pegg, of New York City ; and L. H. Sanford, of the town of Warwick. This was mostly a New York business for the sale of dairy produc- tions ; the supplies, however, coming from the vicinity of Warwick, and for various reasons incorporated in Orange County.

X .- PLACES OF HISTORIC INTEREST OR OF SPECIAL NOTE.

There are neither battle-grounds nor encampments of armies to be described in connection with the fair valleys of Warwick. Doubtless the Indians loved these haunts, and had their favorite places; of these little is known save the traditions connected with the Welling farm. There is said to have been an Indian settlement known to the early white men as Mistucky .* There is little romance in the name, but the imagina- tion may invest those now cultivated fields with all the usual tales of aboriginal scenes; love and war, and council fires, and Indian eloquence may all have combined to render the place classic ground in Indian story.

CHIOUCKHASS IIILL.

In near connection with this we have the following from the article of Grinnell Burt before quoted :

" My great-grandfather, Daniel Burt, purchased some six hundred acres, extending from the Beardsley purchase up to and including Mistucky, then an Indian village. Chouckhass, the ruling chief, was one of the twelve grantors who signed the deed for the Wawayanda Patient, there lived and died and was buried. Years after, when no trace was left of the Indian village, the bones of the old chief were plowed up, and that old patriot, Gen. Ilathorn, gave to them a decent sepulture."

The old residence of Judge Samuel Seward, in which William II. Seward was born, stands upon the east side of Main Street but a few doors north of the old vil- lage church. It is a low, one-story, gambrel-roofed house, and is a dwelling of considerable age, though in good preservation, having been kept neatly painted. It was sold some years ago. It is now owned by Wil-

liam E. Mapes, of Goshen, and occupied by tenants. It may easily be identified by strangers visiting Florida, as there is standing near it an American sycamore- tree, a tall, handsome specimen, with variegated trunk and well-balanced symmetrical top.

XI .- INDUSTRIAL PURSUITS.

The people of Warwick are mostly engaged in ag- riculture. Some of the finest farms in the county are to be found in this town. The valley of the War- wiek Creek and the lower slopes of the adjacent hills are fertile, yielding abundant rewards in return for diligent cultivation. The farmers are evidently en- terprising, taking a just pride in their occupation ; there is a neatness of cultivation, a general air of thrift and energy displayed in good fences, conveni- ent and spacious farm buildings, and improved stock, all of which is exceedingly commendable, and rarely surpassed in the county or even in the State. In the western portion of the town are the celebrated Drowned Lands, of rich, deep soil, and so productive that it is no wonder immigrants were attracted there long before the Revolutionary war. Great attention has been given to the county fairs by the farmers of Warwick; the recent one of 1880, held at Warwiek village, equaling any of its long list of predecessors in the interest shown and in the variety and abund- ance of the exhibits.

The manufacture of butter, once so celebrated as to have given " Orange County butter" a national rep- utation, has given way as in other parts of the county to direet shipments of milk. The amounts leaving their various depots every afternoon and evening are simply enormous.

XII .- MILITARY.

The town of Warwiek was not organized until after the elose of the Revolutionary war. There was, how- ever, quite a thorough settlement of this territory as a part of Goshen Precinct for many years previous. The accounts given and the papers embodied under the head of Early Settlement show a population of such numbers as to have furnished many participants in that great struggle for Independence. Their names are found in the military rolls elsewhere given, and in the general chapters upon Revolutionary times. It may be repeated here, however, that Col. Hathorn's regiment, members of which, as well as himself, were conspicuous in the battle of Minisink, had its head- quarters in Warwiek village. For local movements in the war of 1812 reference is also made to the General History.

WAR OF 1861-65 .- OFFICIAL ACTION.

At a special town-meeting held at the house of Thomas S. DeKay, Aug. 8, 1864, resolutions were adopted providing for a tax sufficient to pay $500 bounty to each volunteer for three years, 8450 for two years, and $400 for one year. The same sum was

voted to any citizen who should furnish a substitute towards filling the quota of the town.

A committee of three was appointed to issue bonds in the name of the town for the purpose of raising the money ; to sell said bonds at any price they may be able to negotiate them, not below par, and to pay out the money so obtained to volunteers. The com- mittee were William H. Houston, Grinnell Burt, and William D. Irwin. Further powers were granted to the committee to employ, if necessary, a town agent, and to pay $25 hand-money for each reeruit obtained to fill the quota.

Sept. 1, 1864, another special town-meeting was held at the house of E. M. Smith. An appropria- tion of $100,000 was voted for the purpose of paying bounties. The proceedings of the first meeting were to a certain extent repealed, but the same committee was continued and the same bounties authorized.

Another special town-meeting was held Dec. 22, 1864, at which an appropriation of $100,000 was again voted for the payment of bounties. The com- mittee appointed were William H. Houston, John M. Bradner, William D. Irwin, and they were fully au- thorized to take all necessary steps to raise the money, pay the bounties, and fill the quota.

The list annexed has been prepared from the printed muster-in rolls of the State, and from the record in the office of the town elerk, supplemented by inquiries of those who were in the service :
