wholesale prices and for cash. They have organized a Grange insurance for farm property in the counties of Ulster and Orange; and now more than $4.000,000 of property is insured. Fires are few and the in- surance premium light. Fred W. Vail of this place has been the president of such company since its or- . ganization; Henry C. Cooley has been its treasurer, and David Merritt, of the town of Lloyd, secretary. The Grange organization has been a source of great benefit to the farming community; it has effected much good, and exerted a wide influence.
FREE MASONRY.
After the War of the Revolution, there was a flourishing Free Mason lodge at Lattintown, in the house where Odell now lives. The upper room in the house, where the meetings were held, is now sub- stantially as when the lodge was there. There were many members from this and surrounding towns, and it flourished for many years. Afterward the lodge was changed in 1804 to the tavern kept by Nathaniel Harcourt. in the old house on the post road near Lyon's corner, recently torn down by A. J. Hepworth. I believe this lodge continued until about 1840, since which time there has been no lodge of this order in the town. This last lodge was called United Lodge, No. 108, of Marlborough, and was chartered April 3, 1804. Benjamin F. Patten, Miles J. Fletcher and others served as masters of this lodge.
SARAH HULL HALLOCK FREE LIBRARY.
Sarah Hull Hallock by her will left an endowment fund to maintain a free library at Milton. She died . in 1884, and during the same year Dorens Hull,
456
HISTORY OF MARLBOROUGH.
George S. Clarke, Margaret B. Ball, C. S. Northrip and Winslow M. Bell were appointed trustees; in 1885 a set of by-laws were adopted. In December, 1886, the library was duly incorporated under "An act for incorporation of library societies, passed in 1875, and acts amendatory thereof," as the Sarah Hull Hallock Library Association of Milton. The articles of incorporation provided as follows:
1. The Corporate name of such society shall be "The Sarah H. Hallock Library Assn. of Milton."
2. The business and object of such society shall be the ac- cumulation and maintenance of a library of books, pamphlets, periodicals, etc., for the use of the people of the village of Milton in the town of Marlboro, county of Ulster, and state of New York.
3. The trustees of said society shall be five in number and the names of the trustees for the first year are as follows: Ethan Parrot, Townsend Sherman, George Clark, Sarah Walter Hallock and Dorcus Hull.
4. The library of said society and its place of business shall be located in the village of Milton aforesaid. Dated, Milton, December 24, 1886.
The present trustees are C. S. Northrip, Geo. S. Clarke, Issac S. Crook, Mrs. Geo. S. Clarke, Mrs. R. W. Hallock. The library has been at the Woolsey building since 1896. It has upward of 3,000 volumes of standard works, and it is being added to yearly by purchase of editions of new works, together with those which are donated by friends. Besides the in- come from the endowment, money has been obtained by subscription and in various ways, so that there are always ample funds on hand to carry on the library successfully. The books are all catalogued, etc., according to the modern system, and all books called for are quickly obtained. The library is opened at stated times for the delivery of books, and some of the ladies of the village are always in at- tendance, and gratuitously render their services. It is patronized by the entire community.

THE MILTON MILLS.
The Milton Mills is a New York State corporation; Mr. E. H. Diek is president and treasurer. The goods prodneed are astrakhans, glove linings, eider- downs, and a general line of goods made in knitting mills of this character. Some five hundred styles are made, so it is quite impossible to mention them all. A very fine line of linen mesh is made here. The mill runs by steam, and has its own electric light plant. It is conveniently situated within a short distance of the depot and steamboat landings. The mill expects to increase the business to a great extent during the coming year, and will add much to the prosperity of the place.
The property was formerly owned by the Henry H. Bell's Sons Co.
THE MILTON FOUNDRY.
This foundry was carried on by John Ball, de- ceased, for upwards of fifty years with great success. It is now owned and incorporated under the name of the Milton Foundry and Machine Co. It is connected with a large firm or company in New York city, and is doing an extensive business. The property for- merly belonged to the John Ball estate, and John B.

Ball negotiated the sale and, through his instru- mentality, has added a new industry to the place.
Felie Pantusco has a general store; sells foreign goods and merchandise; runs an extensive bakery which supplies the country for miles around with bread. The business is very successful.
THE PEOPLE, LANDS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TOWN.
We have seen that most of the earlier settlers and families came here from Long Island and Westchester county. They were people who had previously settled at such places or their descendants; they were mostly English or descendants of those Holland families who had gone over to England during the reign of King Henry VII and VIII, owing to the troubles in their own country and the inducements offered them to settle in England, and had lived in England some time before they came to America. They came up here mostly in sloops or brought their goods, cattle, etc., by land to and across the river here ; and a rude scow and sail ferry, with oars, was early established for that purpose. A few families would come together, and their relatives and neighbors would soon follow, so that by 1750 many had located here and were clear- ing up the lands and making permanent improve- ments. At the commencement of the Revolution we see by the number of men who signed the Articles of Association, there must have been quite a population and a thriving farming community. The dwellings up to this time were mostly of stone or logs, but after the year 1800 most of the houses built were frame structures. The population increased quite rapidly. The families were large and the children generally settled in the same neighborhood. The tide of foreign emigration did not set in until about 1850; some had
460

come here before, but since then foreign emigration has been rapid - mostly from Ireland, though quite a number of Germans have settled here, and some other nationalities. They have been mostly an agri- cultural class, having been small farmers in their own country. They were good people -honest, thrifty and industrious; they accumulated property, bought farms, raised large families, and became respected members of the community. Many of our best and most enterprising citizens have descended from these emigrants. The Irish people have erected and sup- ported two large and flourishing Catholic churches with parsonages and separate priests, and a large cemetery. Most of the emigration is now from Italy; many families arrive each year and purchase the smaller and cheaper farms. They are a frugal and industrious people, and manufacture large quantities of wine and purchase a great amount of the grapes raised here, doing an extensive business in this di- rection.
The water courses of the town are confined to a few small streams emptying into the Hudson. In former times when the country was new the water was held baek in the forests and swamps and had a much larger flow, and rarely went dry in times of drought, and afforded power the year round for many mills and factories; they also contained trout in earlier times. Some are now stocked with trout.
The surface is broken and hilly, rising from the banks of the river to the Marlborough mountains, or as they are called in Graham's Patent, "the Blue Mountains," a rocky ridge along the west bounds with an elevation of about 1,000 feet above tidewater. The soil generally is a dark, rich loam or clay, and admirably adapted to general agriculture and graz- ing, which was the chief occupation of the earlier in- habitants. But fifty or sixty years ago the soil and
THE PEOPLE, LANDS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TOWN. 461
climate were found to be favorable to the raising of all kinds of fruit, and the high prices then prevailing induced many to abandon agriculture and make a speciality of fruit raising. The first of the small fruit raised, to any extent, was the Antwerp rasp- berry, claimed to have been brought over from Hol- land. For several years this berry was raised with great success; it was the staple crop of fruit. It grew in abundance and brought fancy prices. Many people date the commencement of their prosperity from this berry. It was a rich berry dark red in color and of a peculiar fragrance. It bore for sev- eral weeks and was the best and richest raspberry ever raised about here, though we now have a dozen varieties, but it ran its course in about twenty years, when it almost ceased to grow. No careful cultivation or fertilizing could coax it back to its former pro- duction -in fact it simply went out of existence and now is unknown. The lands are given up to a large extent to the raising of fruit, which grows in abund- ance and is profitable when properly managed. There are many large vineyards, and strawberries, rasp- berries, blackberries and currants show abundant yields. Large quantities of the best quality of peaches are raised. There are many apple and pear orchards ; in fact, no better fruit is raised.
The farms have been divided into small tracts of a few acres and upwards upon which families live and prosper. The soil stands dry weather well. With proper cultivation, fertilizing and attention the yield of all the fruits are large. People wishing to com- mence the cultivation of fruit would do well to first visit this town and see for themselves the conditions and success of fruit raising here. The advantage of railroad connection to all sections of the country, and the cheap and easy transportation by the river, make
462
HISTORY OF MARLBOROUGH.
it an ideal place from which to ship whatever may be raised.
The West Shore railroad has been of great benefit; most of the trains stop at both Milton and Marl- borough; it furnishes refrigerator cars and ships fruit wherever desired. The great hotels of New York city, Philadelphia. Boston, Montreal and other cities are furnished with peaches and other fruit di- reet from here. The gross receipts of some of our fruit growers are from $10,000 to $20,000 a year. Large sums are paid out for fertilizers and for work- ing and shipping the erop; and anyone can obtain ready employment at good wages. There are 1,000 persons who come here annually to help during the picking season. More acreage of fruit is set out every year and fruit raising here is becoming a regular science. Though none of our people grow rich, as riches are spoken of and accumulated in other avocations, yet they are wealthy and prosperous for tillers of the soil. Their children attend high schools and colleges, many keep town and city places and spend their winters in Europe or in the South. Over a million dollars' worth of fruit is shipped or sold from here every year. Lands are now selling readily and advancing in price.
Graded schools and churches are numerous. Both ends of the town have rural free delivery. A state road extending the entire length of the town is about to be built. Both villages are lighted with electric lights. Telephones and telegraphs are numerous. We have the best of banking facilities-one bank in this town, one in an adjoining town, and many at Poughkeepsie and Newburgh, between which places there is almost constant communication. We are but a few miles from either. There are also several fraternal societies.
THE PEOPLE, LANDS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TOWN. 463
The town has for long been noted as a summer re- sort, many families and prominent people spending their summers here. The climate and scenery are unsurpassed. All boarding houses do well and there is an opening for a larger and more modern class of houses. Beautiful sites for such buildings are to be found all along the banks of the Hudson commanding extensive views of the river and surrounding country, and can be obtained reasonably. There is a river front of seven miles.
The increase in population has been remarkable. The population in 1865 was 2,733; in 1900 it was 3,978, showing a larger percentage of increase than the city of Kingston or any of the towns, except Rosendale, and this while most of the towns have stood still or lost in population.
