A temperance society of the old Washingtonian style was organized here soon after 1830, and continued in active operation for ten years.
The following is a summary of the contents of this vil- lage : one general store, one grocery, three blaeksmithies, one harness-shop, two shoe-shops, a saw-mill, one Baptist and one union church, and one common school. Its popu- lation is fairly estimated at 200.
RELIGIOUS.
At quite an early period in the history of the town we find an interest in religious matters existing, and as soon as a per- manent settlement was effected in any partieular locality, there were generally those among the pioncers who had been class- leaders or exhorters ere they left their homes in the Eastern States, or earlier settled portions of the country ; meetings for public worship were held in private houses, barns, and school-houses until church buildings were erected, and those persons best qualified by previous experience in lead- ing in prayer and praise werc delegated to conduct the ser- vices. And ofttimes has the rude eloquence of the hardy pioneer ascended to the throne of Grace, from these huuible sanctuaries in the forest, with doubtless as much efficacy as though clothed in studied language and delivered from the altar of one of the magnificent church cdifices of the present. Occasionally, in these days of yore, a eireuit-rider would chance this way, and no one would receive a heartier wel- come, or have bestowed upon him more readily the scant hospitality that the times and circumstanecs afforded. These were not of any one particular sect, for the Metlo- dis itinerant, the Baptist elder, or the Presbyterian dominie, all in turn visited the new settlements, and each in his form preached the word of God according to the doctrines of his belief. Very little of sectarianism actuated these good men
of the past, although each endeavored to get as many as possible in his fold when a regular organization was requi- site or necessary. A good shepherd could do no less.
While the early religious history of the town is vague and uneertain, yet we have been enabled to preserve from the hand of oblivion some valuable data, which, in the ab- senee of proper records, in some cases, was yearly becoming more and more difficult to obtain.
THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF DIX AND ORANGE, located at Townsend, was first organized as the " Baptist Church of Jersey and Townsend," in 1833. The present organization was effected in 1850, when the society was incorporated according to law, and so recorded in the office of the county clerk. The church edifice was erccted in 1849, by the Baptists and Methodists conjointly, and was owned by the two socicties until 1853, when the former purchased the interest of the latter in the building. The first pastor who officiated in the new church was Rev. Peter Colegrove. The trustees in 1850 were John W. Wil- kin, Charles La Fever, and Elijah Tracy. The church is temporarily without a pastor, the last incumbent, Rev. A. B. Green, having elosed his labors with them in the spring of the present year (1878). The present Trustees are John Woodward, George Willover, and Daniel Huey ; Dea- cons, John Woodward, Leister Hutchins, and John Wallen- back; Church Clerk, L. C. Wakelee; membership, 86 ; number of teachers and seholars in Sunday-school, 100; Superintendent, John Wallenback ; value of church prop- erty, $2500 ; seating capacity of building, 300.
THE BAPTIST CHURCH OF CATLIN AND DIX,
at Moreland, was organized about 1830, by Rev. Thomas S. Sheardown, who was its first pastor, and who remained with the church for many years. He was an early preacher of the Baptist faith, and was ordained in the dwelling of An- thony Pierce, in this town. The society was incorporated in 1841, and the church edifice was ereeted in 1843, prior to which time the congregation used to meet in private dwellings, barns, and school-houses. The building is valued at $3000, and will comfortably seat 250 persons. Present pastor, Rev. R. E. Cronk ; Trustces, Wallace W. Culver, Charles A. Galehen, Andrew M. Sayler, Milo G. King, Reuben Wixon, and John Catlin ; Deaeons, Andrew Say- ler and Wallace Culver; membership, 50. The Sunday- school meets with that of the Presbyterian Church, as a joint school, of which the statistics are given in the history of the Presbyterian Church following.
THE FIRST METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCHI OF BEAVER
DAMS
was formed originally as a class about the year 1833, with twelve constituent members, nearly all of whom are dead. Among the first preachers were Reverends Robert Chase, Asa Orcutt, Henry Wisner, S. G. Rhinevault, Ww. Potter, C. J. Bradbury, and others. Meetings were held in a school-house purchased of the district by the society, until the erection of their present building, in the summer of 1858. The society has sinee built a parsonage, making the value of its church property $3000. The house will

seat 300 persons. Present pastor, Rev. G. F. Cole ; Trus- tees, John Anthony, George Bussey, and Flavius Northrup ; Stewards, William Stevens and William Rowley ; member- ship, 43; number of teachers and seholars in Sunday- school, 56 ; Superintendent, Philip Wight.
THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF CATLIN
at Moreland was organized Nov. 4, 1834. The first trus- tees were John C. Thayer, Lewis Miller, and John V. Rose. At the time of the original formation of the ehureh it was a Congregational and Presbyterian, on the " aeeommodation plan," and as such remained until the date above given. One of the first pastors of the church, as at present con- stituted, was Rev. John Gray, who was ealled in 1836, and remained with the church a number of years. The church edifice was erected in 1833-34. The last pastor was Rev. H. W. Congdon, the congregation now being without a minister, temporarily ; present membership, 28; number of teachers and scholars in the Sunday-school, 152; Superin- tendent, M. Henry Gray ; present Trustees, James H. Moore, John Cornell, and Nathan Cleveland ; Elders, James H. More, J. M. Roloson, and M. H. Gray.
THE FIRST UNIVERSALIST SOCIETY OF DIX
was organized Feb. 26, 1848, at a meeting held for that purpose, at which Joseph Cole was chosen Moderator and W. S. Bcers, Clerk. The first trustees were Benjamin Priest, George McAlpine, and Henry Johnson. There were 22 constituent members, and the Rev. Ethan Car- penter organized the society and became its first pastor. The church edifice was erected in 1853, at a cost of $1500, about the present value of the property. It will seat 250 persons. At this time and in 1854, the society was in the most flourishing condition in its existence, having then 60 members, the present number being 25. The last board of trustees was elected in 1862, and consisted of W. C. Savory, Peter Fero, and Charles H. Frost (deceased). The con- gregation has been without a regular pastor for ten years, the last incumbent having been Rev. F. M. Fuller. They have oceasional services.
EDUCATIONAL AND GENERAL.
Long before the present town organization was perfected school-houses existed, and the youth of the different settle- ments were taught the rudiments of sound and useful knowl- edge. From a local writer we quote the following, which goes to show that the desire for the intellectual improvement of the children developed itself at an early period in the history of the town : " A sehool-house was erected in Post Creek Valley, in 1826, by the volunteer and labor contribu- tions of the community, and Miss Amanda Hotchkiss, a sister of Rev. Edward Hotchkiss, taught the first school therein." There were schools in the town prior to the above, but we refer to the establishment of that one as a fair specimen of the general interest taken in matters pertaining to educa- tion. As showing the present status of the town, as re- gards educational facilities, we subjoin the following from the last annual report of Charles T. Andrews, Esq., the efficient county superintendent of schools :
Now on hand, $2545.94 ; State appropriation, $3291.25 ;
tax, $2267.48 ; other moneys, $696.45 ; total, $11,801.12. Number of distriets, 15; children, 1358; scholars, 1226 ; number of teachers, 69,-26 males and 43 females ; weeks taught, 1109} ; volumes in library, 218, valued at $164.
THE POPULATION
of the town for the lustrums from 1845 to 1875 (inclusive) has been as follows: In 1845, 2335; in 1850, 2953; in 1855, 2884; in 1860, 2908; in 1865, 3432; in 1870, 4283; and in 1875, 4218; showing an increase every eensus except that of 1855.
MILLS.
The first grist-mill in the town was built in what is gen- erally known as Van Zant's Hollow, near the northwest boundary of the town, by a Mr. Hubbell. Daniel Keut soon after took it, and kept it in operation for several ycars.
In 1831-32, Ira Dodge built a grist-mill upon the site of the present one, now operated by John Rhodes.
Bennett's Grist-Mill, located at Moreland, was ereeted by Colonel Green Bennett, in 1835. The water becoming scarce. he removed the machinery to the mill below Beaver Dams, and sold it to Samuel Bronson in 1850. The latter sold to Cornelius Westerfelt, and his heirs disposed of it, Samuel Buteher becoming the purchaser, by whom it was repaired. It was destroyed by fire in the spring of 1878. It had three runs of stone, and would grind 52,000 bushels per annum.
Bennett's Saw- Mill, located on Bower's Creek, was built by Colonel Green Bennett, in 1828, and still stands on the original site as one of the old landmarks of the town. He rebuilt the old structure in 1840. It has an old-fashioned, upright saw, and will cut 200,000 feet of lumber a year. Mr. Bennett used to take his lumber to Havana, and there sell it for $4 per thousand, and give unlimited credit at that.
BEAVER DAMS TANNERY
was built in 1837, by W. S. Beers, and the upright part added thereto in 1861; when in operation tans 500 hides, and uses 50 cords of bark.
TOWN POOR-HOUSE.
A town poor-house, the only one in the county, was established in Dix, in 1875, on the William C. Palmer farm, which contains about 32 acres, and for which and the buildings the town was bonded $4000. The first super- intendent was H. R. Lybolt ; the present ineumbent is Alvin Pangburn. The number of inmates, August 1, 1878, was 9, of which 7 were adults and 2 juveniles.
MORELAND CEMETERY ASSOCIATION
was incorporated Sept. 26, 1872, with Jonathan Sturde- vant, M. Henry Gray, and John Denum, Trustees ; Benja- min Clark, Secretary. The lot contains about three acres, is pleasantly loeated, tastefully laid out, and generally well attended to. The present offieers are John Cornell, C. H. Patchen, and John Clark, Trustees; Henry Sayler, Treas- urer ; and M. Henry Gray, Secretary.
