The religious, moral, and social institutions of the place are : three churches,-one each of the Presbyterian, Bap- tist, and Methodist Episcopal denominations; a good de- partmental public school, one lodge of Good Templars, and one grange of the Patrons of Husbandry. The population of the village is fairly estimated at 500.
TRUMBULL'S CORNERS
is a hamlet located in the northern part of the town. It was named after Jacob A. and James Trumbull (or Trum- ble) who came in from New York City in 1813, and took up land upon which three of the four corners that consti- tute the settlement are located.
Other early and prominent settlers at and around the Corners were Herman Parker, James Douglass, J. V. Clark, Joseph Stubbs, Lewis Hughes, Daniel Strang, and others. The place now contains two general stores, three black- smithies, two wagon-shops, one shoc-shop, one harness-shop, a saw-mill, and a shingle-mill close by. It has two churches -one Methodist Episcopal and one Christian-and a com- inon school. Its population is about 150.
The post-office was established here about 1844, and Daniel Strang, Jr., was appointed first postmaster; the present incumbent is Elvin Keene, who was appointed dur- ing the administration of General Grant, in 1872.
PONY HOLLOW
is a post-office in the southwestern part of the town, of which Alva Brown is postmaster.
EAST NEWFIELD
is a post-office at Newfield Station, on the Geneva, Ithaca and Sayre Railroad. The first postmaster was John C. Gibbs ; present, S. M. Bentley.
STRATTON'S POST-OFFICE
is also in the eastern part of the town. Wilbor F. Stratton has been postmaster since the establishment of the office,
in April, 1872, but he has since delegated the position to Charlie F. Spaulding, who acts as deputy postmaster.
MANUFACTURING INTERESTS.
The Newfield flouring-mills, formerly known as the Tomp- kins County mills, were erected by Nichols, Luce & Dudley about the year 1830. The two latter gentlemen soon re- tired from the copartnership, leaving Mr. Nichols sole pro- prietor, which he remained until 1842. From that time down to 1861 the mills frequently changed hands. During the latter year the present owner, P. S. Dudley, purchased the property, which he has since retained. The mills are operated by both water and steam ; have four runs of stone, produce 2500 barrels of merchant and 40,000 bushels of custom work per annum.
The lower mills were erected by John Dean in 1850. In 1856, P. S. Dudley became part owner by purchase, in connection with O. C. Puff. The firm of Dudley & Puff continued until 1859, when the former purchased the latter's interest, and has since been the sole proprietor. There are three runs of stone, used exclusively for custom work, of which is ground annually about 30,000 bushels.
There are various other saw-mills in the town, but of their history we have been unable to glean any information.
RELIGIOUS.
One of the chief characteristics of the early settlers was their desire to establish religious institutions and to hold public worship. It seems to have been a matter of paramount importance with them to publicly give thanks for the providential care that had been exercised over them during each successive week, amid the dangers and priva- tions that were inseparable from the lives of the pioneers. None will dispute the justice of this course, nor will any disparage the zeal that was generally manifested in the ob- servance of religious worship, no matter by which denomi- nation it might have been promulgated. It is impossible to establish precisely the fact of priority for any. particular religious sect. There were at a very early day missionaries of the Presbyterian and Baptist faiths, and also itinerants of the Methodist persuasion. Owing to the peculiarity of the mode of organization of the latter, with regard to their classes, perhaps as far as actual formation of religious bodies is concerned, they are entitled to the honor of being first. For we find that as early as 1816 a class was formed in the Seabring neighborhood, and that a similar organization existed in the village of Newfield one year later. Prepara- tory meetings had been held by a Methodist itinerant by the name of Anning Owens, some fifteen years previous to the actual formation of the class. Jeremiah Green was the first leader at Seabring's, and moving soon after to Newfield, was the first leader of the elass there. William Cox did a vast amount of zealous work before the organization of the Newfield elass was perfected. He it was who procured the services of the Rev. James Kelsey, then holding an appointment at Ithaca. Mrs. Eleanor Cox, wife of Wil- lian Cox, was one of the first members of the elass, and it was at their residence that the meetings were held for the first six years of its existence. Mrs. Betsey Baily was also one of the five original members of the class.

HISTORY OF TIOGA, CHEMUNG, TOMPKINS,
THIE FIRST METIIODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCHI SOCIETY OF NEWFIELD
was regularly organized in 1834, and Benjamin H. Clark, Israel Mead, H. M. Ferguson, David Murray, N. W. Rey- nolds, Charles M. Turner, Abram Dudley, Samuel Seabring, and Daniel B. Swartwood were the first trustees. The erec- tion of the house of worship was commenced during the year, and completed and dedicated the year following, during the pastorate of Rev. Moses Adams, who was also the first regular pastor. The edifice still does active service, having been repaired at various periods since. The value of the church property is $6500. The present trustees are Frederick Farmer, Henry Smith, William H. Anderson, Ichabod Palmer, S. L. Baker, and Abraham Palmer; pres- ent pastor is Rev. G. C. Wood ; membership, 130; number of teachers and scholars in Sunday-school, 126; number of volumes in Sunday-school library, 500; Superintendent, John Crowell. The stewards of the charge are Mrs. P. S. Dudley, Mrs. Charles McCorn, Mrs. John McCorn, Henry Smith, C. H. Seabring, Dyer Cornish, John Crowell, and G. N. Alexander.
Besides the church society at Newfield village, there are two classes belonging to the charge in the town, one hold- ing meetings at the Cutter school-house, and the other at Barnes' Hill.
THE CUTTER SCHOOL-HOUSE CLASS
has a membership of 18; its leader is Almeron Clark ; and there are 56 teachers and scholars in its Sunday-school. Superintendent, Mrs. Kate Cutter.
THIE BARNES' HILL CLASS
has a membership of 20; Class-Leader, Peter Westervilt ; number of teachers and scholars in Sunday-school, 40; Superintendent, Dyer Cornish. These classes were formed at an early date in the settlement of the localities in which they are held, respectively, but we could not ascertain the precise date of the formation of either of them, in the absence of proper records.
THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF NEWFIELD
was organized in 1820, by Elder Oviatt. The first deacons were Elijah B. Georgia and Nathan Stewart. Meetings were held in the school-houses until the erection of the church edifice in 1842. The dedicatory exercises attending the opening of the house to public worship were conducted by Elder Cole, of Ithaea, assisted by Elder John Sears. The building is valued at $3000, including the parsonage. The Trustees are Peleg Faber, Charles Smith, and Martin Kiper; Deacon, Revo Fairbrother; the membership of the church, 45; number of teachers and scholars in the Sunday-school, 60. Superintendent, O. A. Seely.
THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF NEWFIELD, at Newfield village, was organized with 12 members, by Rev. William Levensworth, about 1820, but no records prior to 1829 exist. Of the original members, but one now remains with the church, namely, Miss Abigail Pierson, whose connection with the society extends over nearly half a century. The meeting organizing the church was held in
the " yellow school-house," at which Miller Wood, Charles McCorn, Simeon T. Bush, Hobert Estabrook, and Daniel Crowell were chosen trustees. The deed for the lot upon which the church building stands was conveyed to the above trustees (except Estabrook, whose name does not appear therein) Feb. 10, 1832, by Archer Green. James Tood was an active member, and the first church clerk. Preparations were immediately made for the ereetion of a suitable building, which was completed during the year 1832. The building is now (July, 1878) undergoing extensive repairs, which, when finished, will give a probable value to the church of $3500. The use of the parsonage is given by David Curtis, the trustees to keep it in good repair. The present Trustees are S. S. Todd, H. T. Brown, and Murray Beardslee; Elders, Luther B. Tood and Hiram Laughlin ; Pastor, Rev. D. D. Lindsley. Member- ship, 67 ; number of teachers and scholars in Sunday- school, 100. The church, under the faithful and efficient pastorate of Rev. Mr. Lindsley, is beginning to assume some of its old-time prosperity, both as regards zeal among its members and increase in its congregation.
THE FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF NEWFIELD
was organized May 20, 1854, in School District No. 12. The first pastor was Rev. Ezra Chace. In 1858 the society erected a neat and commodious church edifice, which was dedicated on the 23d of December of the same year. With parsonage and lot, it is now valued at $3000. Its seating eapaeity is for 300 persons. The present church officers are H. Cornish, Secretary ; David Hine, Treasurer ; William C. Douglass, D. Hine, William O. Palmer, L. T. Carpenter, and J. C. Everhart, Trustees. The present membership is 80; number of teachers and scholars in Sunday-school, 100.

WILLIAM HINE.
MRS. MARY HINE.
WILLIAM HINE.
In the early days of the settlement of Newfield, the town was fortunate in having substantial settlers and practical farmers for its pioneers, men who emigrated hither well knowing the hardships and privations to which they would be subjected, and who were fully resolved to surmount the many difficulties that stand between the settler in a new country and independence. In the list of such men we are pleased to count William Hine, who was born in England, March 24, 1794. He Icarned the blacksmith trade while a youth, and worked at it until he emigrated to America, and took up his permanent residence in the town of Newfield, in the year 1834. He then built a blacksmith shop, and also purchased fifty acres of land, which he cultivated, as well as carrying on the business of the smithy. Not only did he do this, but also by enterprise and untiring industry he added to his original purchase until he became the owner of one hundred and seventy-eight acres of well-cul- tivated land, which he subsequently sold to his son, and removed to the village of Newfield, where he purposes to spend his declining years, and in an
economical way enjoy the fruits of his early industry and thrift.
Mr. Hine has been twice married. His first wife was Rachel, daughter of Hugh Hicks, of England, by whom he had three children, two dying in the " old country," and one-a son-accompanying him to the United States. His second wife is Mary, daughter of Samuel Bishop, also a native of England, where she was born on the 23d of December, 1798. This union was blessed with six children, three of whom reside in Newfield.
For twenty years Mr. Hine has been a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mrs. Hine united with the Free-Will Baptist denomination more than thirty years ago, and for that entire period has been a faithful member, as her husband has been of the church to which he belongs during his membership therein.
The chief characteristics of Mr. Hine have been his industry, perseverance, and thrift, which, coupled with an impregnable honesty and uprightness in his dealings with his fellow-men, lave conspired to give him a most creditable reputation.

AND SCHUYLER COUNTIES, NEW YORK.
contain one and three-fourths aeres, and were used for burial purposes seventeen years prior to the organization as a Rural Cemetery Association.
EDUCATIONAL AND STATISTICAL.
The educational facilities of the town at an early day, though meagre, were established upon a system at least as praetieal and extensive as was any other enterprise in the first decade of the town's history. Contemporary with the grist-mill and the inn was the primitive log sehool-house ; and if the knowledge of the school-teacher did not equal that of the one of whom Goldsmith wrote-
" And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew, That one small head eould carry all he knew,"
yet they were usually well enough qualified to " teaeli the young idea," ete., to a degree befitting the times and surroundings in and among which they were called upon to disseminate useful instruetion. The magnitude of the re- sults that have followed such small beginnings in educa- tional matters forms one of the grandest and most wonder- ful phases of our history. The good old school of those days was, in reality, the nucleus around which has devel- oped that most noble and beneficial of all our institutions,- the common school. Long may the system prosper ! It will endure as long as this republie lasts.
As presenting a fair criterion of the present condition of the public schools of the town, we quote from the annual report of the county superintendents of seltools for the year 1877 :
Twenty-two districts, 40 teachers, 784 children, 626 scholars, 715 volumes in libraries, valued at $196; number of weeks taught, 625. Receipts .- On hand, $183.83 ; State appropriation, $2313.40 ; tax, $2197.14 ;' other, $686.92; total, $5305.29. Expenditures .- Teachers' wages, $4609.69 ; repairs, $107.35 ; incidentals, $449.07; on hand, $129.23.
The population of the town, as shown in the several lustrums from 1845 to 1875, inclusive, has been as fol- lows: In 1845, 3665; in 1850, 3816; in 1855, 2800; in 1860, 2984; in 1865, 2700 ; in 1870, 2602 ; and in 1875, 2528.
For the information contained in the above history of the town of Newfield we acknowledge ourselves indebted to the following persons and authorities, namely : G. A. Todd, of West Danby ; P. S. Dudley, Esq., of Newfield village ; Stephen T. Brown, Esq., Jefferson Dean, Alvah Brown, Elvin Keene, John C. Gibbs, C. H. Seabring, Harvey Linderman, Ezra Marion, Supervisor, and S Dud- ley Cook, Town Clerk ; the pastors of the several churches, and others; to the several New York State Gazetteers, and Hamilton Childs' " Historical Directory."
