General Judson has been honored with many positions of trust, receiving the appointment of marshal for the purpose of taking the census of Chemung County in 1840, with a population of 20,731. 1Ic was appointed under-sheriff of the county in 1841; elected sheriff in 1843 ; appointed marshal under the bankrupt law of 1847; internal revenue assessor 27th Congressional district, 1866, and in 1868 was elected one of tho presidential electors from the same distriet.

General Judson's military record runs through a period of some thirty years, and forms no nnimportant part in the outline history of his life. In 1834 he volunteered in the light infantry company called the " Elmira Guards," commanded by Captain Wheeler, and was associated in the company with many honored citizens of Elmira, as General Gregg, Colonel Hoffman, Captain J. Hoffman, George W. Hoffman, John D. Williams, Captain Stephen Lewis, Lieutenant Vorhees, and many others of distinction, and it was frequently said by the brigade and division commanders to be the best company in the division.

April 30, 1834, ho was commissioned captain of the 79th Regiment of Infantry, State of New York, by Governor Marcy, and June 20. 1835, lieutenant-colonel, and June 16, 1842, colonel of the same regi- ment by Governor Seward. July 21, 1846, he was commissioned captain of a company of the 6th Regiment of Volunteers, State of New York, for the Mexican war, by Governor Silas Wright, with R. E. Temple as colonel and adjutant-general.

Loyal to tho patriotism of his country, when the lato Rebellion broke out, and the enemies of the government were in the ascendency on the frontier of Kansas, General Judson offered his sorvices, ranking

as major of Frontier Battalion, State of Kansas, with commission dated Aug. 5, 1861. Sept. 10, 1861, he was commissioned colonel of 6th Regi- ment Kansas Volunteer Cavalry, and for gallant and meritorious ser- viees rendered during the war was commissioned, March 13, 1865, hrevet brigadier-general by Andrew Johnson, President of the United States.

To trace General Judson's military history in the West would be to give a sketch of the various battles, marches, and privations of the regiment with which he was connected ; hence we give a few extracts from records written at that time.

From the Fort Scott Bulletin, April 3, 1863: " Last Monday wit- nessed an ovation on the part of the citizens and military of Fort Seott to Colonel Judson and his gallant regiment worthy of their valorons deeds in the many hard-fought battles which crowned with laurels the victorious banners of the Army of the Frontier in their recent splendid campaign in the southwest. Passing the Wilder House and turning to the right to the outskirts of the town, the escort formed in front of Lieutenant Clark's camp, and the Sixth formed immediately in front and facing them, the escort giving 'three rousing cheers and a tiger for Colonel Judson and the gallant Sixth.' A ball in the evening to Colonel Judson at the Wilder Ilouse, where the guests tripped the light fantastic toe until the 'wee sma' hours of morning,' thus closed a day long to be remembered by Fort Scott."

Correspondent of Learenworth Conserratice, Aug. 10, 1863: " I see here many of the old Kansas favorites; of course they cluster around the el.ief favorite-the noble and gallant Blunt. Colonel Judson's calm stile, pleasant manners, sagacious prudence, his zeal and courage, and ripened judgment have an admirable field for their exercise. lle has reduced confusion to order, and shaped the stragglers, the Indians, and the irregular troops into something like the order and form of an army. There are few men of his runk in the service who have more strictly military ideas, or a better method of carrying them into effect than Colonel Judson."

During the entire military service of General Judson he was only wounded onee, which was at Fort Smith, Arkansas. In the year 1834 he married Elizabeth, daughter of Major Charles Orwan, an carly settler of Elmira. By this union there were born three sons and three daughters,-Mrs. George A. Reynolds, Charles O., Mrs. E. S. Lowman (deceased), William "R., John, and Clara B. (deceased). His wife died March 1, 1859, and he married, in 1861, Mrs. Aurora Il. Dan- forth, daughter of Thomas Hlulitt, of Rutland Co., Vt., by whom he had one son,-Thomas 11. His second wife died June 19, 1870, and he married Sarah K., daughter of Dr. Erastus I .. Hart, of Elinira, with whom he now lives.

Charles O. and William R. Judson, Jr., volunteered at the time of the first call for troops on the Kansas frontier, and remained in the service during the entire war.

C. O. Judson was captain of n squadron of cavalry, and detailed as provost marshal of the post at Fort Smith, Arkansas. W. R. Jud- xon, Jr., was appointed first lieutenant in the same company, and came in command of the company after C. O. Judson was detailed as provost marshal ; both of these sons were in the same service over four years in their father's regiment.

AND SCHUYLER COUNTIES, NEW YORK.

a surveyor in Southport, to which place his grandfather removed in 1802, has often heard his grandfather say that he had made the first pair of shoes ever made in Elmira.

Adney S. Atkins was the first tailor. He came to Elmira in 1815, according to John C. Roe, who came in 1817, who is now living, and in a good state of preserva- tion. He contends that tailoring is a healthy business.

In 1818, Isaae Roe and William Williams came from Orange County, N. Y., and erected the tannery on the river bank, above the grist-mill erected by Isaae Bald- win, Mr. Williams clearing the brush off the lot for that purpose. In 1827 or 1828, Mr. Williams purchased the interest of Mr. Roe, and carried on the business until 1843. Mr. Roe lived in a log house, on the corner of Water and Columbia Streets, until about 1827.

The first theatrical exhibition given in Elmira was in the second story of the tavern kept by Hawks and William Dunn, which stood on the north side of Water Street, next the canal. This was about the year 1832. The proprietor and manager, star and stock actors and actresses, were made up for the most part of Gilbert and Trobridge and their wives. The playing was pronounced quite ereditable, and the parties afterwards made their mark in the profession. Neafie was a young stage aspirant, and Powell made his debut, and died at Erie some years since ; but used to visit Elmira with a company, occasionally, under the firm of Powell & Gore. The first play brought out was the " Lady of the Lake." The scenic display must have been of a remarkable order compared with our theatres. The stage did not exceed twenty feet square; but the acting was deemed superb.

Headquarters for staging. The route to New York for travelers was by stage, the lines running through the "southern tier counties" to the Hudson River. The head- quarters of all the staging done in this region was where the city market now stands. Communication east and west, north to Geneva, and south to Philadelphia and Washington via Williamsport, was kept up daily by four- horse post-coaches. The line to Ithaca was tri-weekly ; the mails never exceeded a single mail-bag, and the coaches were seldom crowded to excess. The proprietors of these lines were Cooley & Maxwell. The driver was an artiste. His practiced hand could bring his long lash to just touch a leader's ear with the weight of a feather, or with a single stroke on the flank send him like a flash forward to his work. The snap of the lash was like the snap of a fire- cracker, or the reverberation of a pistol, as he willed it. And when coming into town, his long-horn trumpet-blasts, and his whip-lash executions, as he brought the four-in-hand down to a round trot, you could hear his emphatic " G'lang !" which afforded daily excitement to the villagers.

One of the oldest stage proprietors in the valley was General Whitney Gates, who came here in 1825. Cooley, Maxwell, and Magee & Co. established lines all over the adjoining county, west to Bath, south to Williamsport and Northumberland, east to Owego, and north to the head of the lake and Geneva. Gates' first contract was to Williams- port. Subsequently he, with Lewis and Charles Manning, secured the line between here and Owego. The record of their transactions is traditionary, and many important

events in the establishing of those early lines are lost. We get but glimpses here and there.

Manning, Gates, Fish, and Hamilton were the star actors of the stage in those days, and flourished until the completion of the Erie Railway, or nearly so, Sly and McGrath appearing only at the drop of the curtain. The stages made connection with the old " Dick Stevens," a steamer that roamed the high sea of Seneca Lake to Geneva.

THE PAST AND PRESENT.

In compiling the history of Elmira, the endeavor has been to rescue from oblivion the history, partly written and partly oral, of the fair young city,-" The Queen of the Southern Tier,"-and put it in tangible shape for preser- vation. Records, libraries, and the press have been made tributary, and persons of " high and low degree" have been interviewed, for the most part with success. From these varied sources the links of the chain have been gathered, and as the pages of near a hundred years of history unfold, doubtless it will appear that " truth is stranger than fiction." Not, even the " oldest inhabitant" ean recall the secret springs that gave a zest to the toils of "long ago," when Lebbeus Tubbs, Colonel Hendy, John Gregg, John G. Mc- Dowell, Guy Maxwell, and other nobles of that day laid the foundations of the liberty and social privileges we now enjoy. Many of the adventures and perhaps hair- breadth escapes have been lost, yet some striking peculi- arities remain clinging, like the vine to the oak.

The past and present have so silently merged into each other, that there is no line of demareation. The present is rather the maturity of the past, the ripening into the full- ness of usefulness, the consumination of all that is desirable in schools, a near approach to this in the churches, secret and other societies, while the mercantile status leaves little to be desired, and the manufacturing and mechanical indus- tries, which have become the foundation of the true growth of the city, inerease year by year, until thrift and prosperity are manifest on every hand.

Situated in the beautiful valley of the Chemung, watered by the river of historie interest, and favored by a climate which is alike favorable to health and the products of the soil, it is not surprising that talent in industry, art, manu- factures, and commerce should constantly flow hither ; fos- tered, as these interests have ever been, by an intelligent and progressive newspaper power, second to no other, and that the great spring of all these, capital, finds an ample field for operating, and even lavishes itself in the adorn- ment of homes and institutions, which are many and beautiful.

CHAPTER XLV.

THE CITY OF ELMIRA-(Continued).

Ecclesiastical History.

THIE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN ELMIRA was organized probably in the summer of 1795, by the Rev. Daniel Thateher, a missionary of the General Assembly's Board of Missions. His remains now lie in Wysox, Pa.

HISTORY OF TIOGA, CHEMUNG, TOMPKINS,

The first elders were Abiel Fry and Samuel Ludlow, the former from Orange Co., N. Y., and the latter from Mor- ristown, N. J.

A Dr. Amos Park preached here occasionally, or statedly, after Mr. Thatcher, under some kind of license from one of the ecclesiastical bodies in New Jersey. He for a time apostatized from the faith, avowing Universalism or infidelity ; but, on repentance and confession, was restored to the fellowship of the church.

A Mr. Brown, from New England, was the next regular minister, and he remained only a few weeks. The Rev. John Smith, of Digliton, Mass., succeeded Mr. Brown, though he seems never to have had any formal connection with the church; he was called to the place by secular business, and preached merely to accommodate the people. He was buried, with his wife, in the grave-yard on Church Strect, in this city.

In January, 1805, the Rev. Simeon R. Jones entered upon the pastoral charge of the congregation. He repre- sents the state of the community as being then deplorably bad. The Sabbath was desecrated by sports, labor, and business ; small as the place was, it sustained six taverns and tippling shops, and intemperance was almost universal. Even professors of religion became implicated in the pre- vailing vices. A refreshing from God's presence was now enjoyed,-several heads of families were hopefully con- verted, and the state of things assumed quite a new aspect. About this time, in accordance with Mr. Jones' views, and at his suggestion, the church bceame congregational.

On Friday, February 14, 1816, Mr. Hezekiah Woodruff was ordained to the gospel ministry by the Presbytery of Geneva, and installed pastor of the church. This relation continued until Jan. 3, 1820, when it was dissolved. Oct. 16, 1820, the Rev. Henry Ford was called to the charge of the church, in connection with that of Southport, and re- mained here until the 12th of March, 1827. May 5, 1824, the original form of government was resumed, and the church was reorganized as Presbyterian by the Presbytery of Geneva, under whose care it had been taken while Con- gregational, Sept. 22, 1814. Brinton Paine, Sela Matthews, Abram De Labar, John McConnell, and Joel Jones were the first elders after this change.

The Rev. Elcazer Lathrop commenced ministerial labors here in March, 1827. In the year following, March, 1829, his health interfered with his preaching, and the pulpit at that time was supplied by Rev. John Barton. Oct. 20, 1830, Mr. Lathrop was installed pastor of the church, and retained this connection until succeeded by Rev. M. L. Farnsworth. Mr. Farnsworth resigned in 1834. In Sep- tember, 1835, Rev. John Frost assumed charge, and re-' mained until Feb. 5, 1839. Oct. 24, 1832, John Selover and Asa Willard were elected ruling elders. Nov. 6, 1836, Dr. Norman Smith, Simeon Benjamin, Hector I. Maxwell, and Sylvester G. Andrus were chosen ruling elders. Rev. P. H. Fowler was installed pastor of the church Dec. 4, 1839. On the 5th of November, 1841, Hiram Potter and Solomon L. Gillet were chosen ruling elders.

Jan. 2, 1846, forty members were dismissed for the pur- pose of organizing the Independent Congregational Church of this place.

On the 2d day of November, 1849, Orrin Robinson and Lester Smith were duly elected elders in said church, and ordained November 11, 1849.

On the 9th of December, 1850, Rev. P. H. Fowler re- quested the members of the church and congregation to unite with him in asking Presbytery to dissolve the pastoral connection existing between them. The request was grant- ed, and the connection dissolved by Presbytery. On the 15th of April, 1851, the church and congregation called the Rev. David Murdoch, D.D. The call was accepted, and he commenced his labors May, 1851, and was installed as pastor in July, 1851. He remained pastor until 1860, when the connection was dissolved by the Presbytery of Chemung. On the 23d of January, 1861, on application, letters were granted by session to one hundred and sixteen members to organize the Second Presbyterian Church in Elmira, to be connected with and under the care of Che- mung Presbytery.

Lovell Kellog, Timothy S. Pratt, and Stephen Rose were elected elders in 1869, and R. W. Barton and Wil- liam T. Carr were elected deacons April 5, 1869. May 17, 1869, Rev. George C. Curtiss, D.D., resigned his pas- torate of the church in consequence of continued ill health. August 1, 1869, W. C. Knox, D.D., was called by the church and congregation as pastor, began his labors Dec. 5, 1869, and was installed May 1, 1870. The number of members now (April 1, 1878) is over four hundred. The Sunday-school has three departments, primary, intermedi- atc, and senior, with some five hundred members, including teachers.

THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH

was formed in an old log school-house, on the site where the old chapel was built in 1831. The church was formally organized in 1814. Among the earliest preachers remembered are Revs. G. Lanning and Loring Grant. The first regular pastor was Rev. Edmund O. Fling, who preached during 1825. Rev. Robert Burch was pastor in 1827, 1828, and 1829. Rev. Asa Abel was presiding elder in 1828 to 1831. Rev. Jonas Dodge was pastor in 1831-32. During this time the church took on new vigor. This was known as the " work-bench" revival. Being without a place of worship, permission was given to occupy the court-house when not wanted for other pur- poscs.

The First Methodist Episcopal Church, according to their church directory, the only source of information fur- nished by the church, was organized in 1819. From this it appears that the Bishop is Rev. Randolph S. Foster, D.D., LL.D. ; Presiding Elder, Rev. Manly S. Hard, A.M .; Pastor, Rev. Elijah Horr, Jr., A.M .; Member of the An- nual Conference, Rev. Austin E. Chubbuck ; Exhorter, Augustus P. George; Sunday-school Superintendent, Prof. Jas. R. Monks. The membership numbers about 300.

SOUTH MAIN STREET METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

The probable cost of the church is near $7000. The membership is about 196. The pastors have been J. G. Gulich, 1872-74; H. B. Cassavant, 1874-76; Joseph B. Sheerar, 1876-78. The presiding elders have been Thomas

HEDDING METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

Erected 210 Church Street, 1852. Society organized August, 1852. Board of trustees elected September, 1852, consisted of John I. Nieks, Bradley Griffin, Nelson W. Gardner, David Tillotson, and John Davis. The soci- ety organized with 60 members.

Previous to the organization Rev. Nathaniel Mandeville labored in this field as missionary. The first pastor was Wm. H. Goodwin, D.D. Some of his successors were H. Hiekoek, J. C. Nobles, S. L. Congdon, K. P. Jervis, J. Raines, E. J. Hermans, O. L. Gibson, and Chas. Z. Chase. The present membership is about 300. The Sunday-school about 200. In connection with the church is a " Palestine Class," the object of which is the study of the topography, the geography, and history of the Holy Land. This in- formation is from the History of Elmira, etc., 1868, by A. B. Galatian & Co .; the present pastor, S. C. Queal, failing to furnish any additional.

These churches belong to the Central New York Con- ference.

BAPTIST CHURCHI.

The Southport and Elmira Baptist Church was consti- tuted May 16, 1829, by delegates from the Baptist Churches at Big Flats and Elmira, N. Y., and Springfield and Canton, Pa. Subsequently, June 24, 1853, the name was changed to the First Baptist Church of Elmira. The first place of worship of the First Baptist Church was in a church building two and a half miles below the city, on a place known as Summon's Corners. The location of the first church edifice of this church was the same as the present.

The first pastor was P. D. Gillette; the first deacons, John Waeir, Jr., and David Howell ; the first clerk, Wil- liam Lowe.

The 38 constituent members were John P. Stryker, Polly Stryker, John Waeir, Jr., Hannah Waeir, Henrietta Seeley, William Lowe, Hannah Lowe, Joseph Grover, Hannah Grover, Susan Smith, Maria Grover, Thursa Elli- son, David Howell, Julia Howell, Sally Gurnee, John Bovier, P. D. Gillette, Harriet E. Gillette, Hannah Streeter, Abigail Cassada, Noama Smith, Margaret Bovier, Elizabeth Paine, Martha Ellsworth, Jonathan Rowley, Sally Rowley, Joseph Grover, Jr., Martha Gurnee, Sally Cassada, Sarah Ann Beckwith, Judge Hammond, John H. Cassada, John Sly, Polly Sly, Zina Jenkins, Cynthia Mason, Sally Tubbs, and Nancy Beckwith.

The first Sabbath-school was organized June 8, 1833. The first house of worship was built in 1832, the first business meeting held Dee. 22, 1832, and the first com- munion Jan. 27, 1833. May 24, 1840, the church dis- nissed 10 members, at their own request, to unite in constituting the "South Creek Baptist Church." May 6, 1854, 64 members presented a request for dismission to constitute a separate church, under the name of the "Southport Baptist." Feb. 26, 1859, 69 members asked for letters, which were granted, and immediate steps were taken for the formation of a new Baptist interest in El-

mira, resulting in organizing the " Central Baptist Church," but now known as the Madison Avenue Baptist Church.

The pastors have been Revs. P. D. Gillette, H. C. Vogel, D. Robinson, 4. Grenell, E. W. Dickinson, J. G. Binney, D.D., C. N. Chandler, R. J. Wilson, E. Andrews, M. C. Manning, T. O. Lincoln, D.D., J. J. Keyes, A. Parker, and the present incumbent, W. T. IIenry.

TRINITY CHURCH ( PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL).

The first religious service in Elmira according to the forms of the Episcopal Church was held by the Rt. Rev. B. T. Onderdonk, D.D., then Bishop of New York (in 1832). Shortly after this event a zealous lady, Mrs. Thomas Hill, familiarly known as " Auntie Hill," endeav- ored to procure subscriptions for the support of a mission- ary, but failed. She is said to be entitled to more eredit for the foundation of the Episcopal Church in Elmira than any one else. In 1833 services were again held in Elmira by James D. Carder, and in May by Daniel E. Brown, a candidate for holy orders, and an organization of a parish effected June 12, 1833, under the supervision of Mr. Carder.

The wardens elected were Harvey Luce and Ephraim Wheeler. The vestrymen elected were Platt Bennett, Samuel H. Maxwell, Richard F. Seabury, Levi J. Cooley, Linus Griswold, Arnon Beardsley, Ransom Birdsall, and Freeborn Sisson, Jr. Rector, Rev. Thomas Clark. Clerk, P. R. K. Brotherson.

Services were afterwards held in a school-house in the Park, on Main Street.

A site for a church building was selected on Church Street, where Blivens' furnace now stands, and a resolve made to erect a house, cost not to exceed $3000. Throngh the exertions of " Auntie Hill," Trinity Church of New York contributed $800 towards the building fund. The building committee was Harvey Luce, Damon Hatch, and Samuel H. Maxwell, and the cdifice was completed in De- eember, 1836, and consecrated by the Rt. Rev. B. T. On- derdonk, D.D., Aug. 21, 1837. The rector, at this time, was Rev. Richard Smith. The wardens, Harvey Luce and Dorastus Hatch. The vestrymen, S. S. Lawrence, Damon Hatch, Charles S. Vogel, Levi J. Cooley, Stephen Lewis, George Kingsbury, Ransom Birdsall, and Samuel Maxwell. Clerk, P. R. K. Brotherson.

The building was occupied about eighteen years, and during this time the rectors were Revs. Richard Smith, Gordon Winslow, Kendrick Metcalf, Stephen Douglass, B. F. Whitcher, Washington Van Zandt, and Andrew Hull.

In 1855, during the rectorship of Mr. Hull, a new house of worship was determined on, the congregation having outgrown the capacity of the old sanctuary, -the new one to cost $18,000 to $20,000 ; the site of the church had

256

HISTORY OF TIOGA, CHEMUNG, TOMPKINS,

already been selected. A building committee was appointed, consisting of Rev. Dr. Hull, B. P. Beardsley, S. T. Arnot, W. P. Yates, and W. F. Roe. The builders were Messrs. Nichols & Washburn, and the architect Mr. Dudley, of New York. The corner-stone was laid with impressive ceremo- nies, by Right Rev. W. H. De Laneey, July 26, 1855 ; Rev. Dr. Metcalf, a former rector, but then professor in Hobart College, Rev. W. H. Cooper, Rev. Mr. Parke, and James Rankine also being present.

The Wardens were Harvey Luce and Dorus Hatch ; the Vestrymen were W. P. Yates, B. P. Beardsley, A. C. Ely, S. T. Arnot, E. G. Brown, R. Jones, E. Joncs, Fletcher Roe ; Clerk, R. B. Coffin ; Treasurer, A. C. Ely.

The first service held in the new church after its com- pletion was on the Fourth of July, 1858 ; it was not con- secrated till April 5, 1866, at which time the debt on its construction was discharged. The Right Rev. Arthur Cleveland Coxe, D.D., Bishop of the Diocese of Western New York, performed the services of consecration. The eost of the edifice was $18,000. The wardens and vestry the same as given. A class of sixteen persons were eon- firmed at the same time.

In 1851 a rectory was built, mainly through the zeal and industry of the ladies of the parish ; the lot for church and parsonage was bought in 1850, for $2000,-$400 of which was also furnished by the ladies, who raised in six years $2130. Harvey Luce was senior warden thirty-one years. Samuel Maxwell and Dorus Hatch were also wardens and vestrymen many years.
