WINDHAM COUNTY.
During that summer, however, the inhabitants commenced the erection of another jail, which was never finished, and the old jail was somewhat strengthened. In addition to this commodious jail, Chandler also built, in 1771, a court-house, which, according to his description, was "thirty feet long, sixteen feet wide, and eleven feet posts," and was so planned as to be "convenient " when finished. It was provided with a " sufficient lobby or room fit for a jury, with a fire-place in it," and was covered with some kind of roofing. This building he leased to the county for a term of ten years, and as much longer as they might choose to use it. In it were to be held the terms of the inferior court of common pleas, and the court of general sessions, and in it was also to be transacted all the business relating to the general welfare of the county. But the people, who had been displeased with Chandler's efforts at jail building, were now doubly incensed at his failure at court-house construction. Before the commencement of this last failure, they had endeavored to effect the removal of the shire town from Chester ; this, after much agitation, some rioting, etc., was accomplished, and at a meeting of the supervisors, held at Chester, May 26, 1772, Westminster was chosen as the shire town of Cumberland county.
The court-house was located at the east village, upon what was afterwards known as "Court House Hill." In shape it was almost square, the sides being about forty feet in length, and was built of hewn timber, clap-boarded. The roof was gambrel, surmounted by a cupola or tower, open at the four sides. An aisle, ten or twelve feet in width, ran east and west through the middle of the lower story. A double door was placed at each end of the aisle, or, in other words, two doors opening either way from a center fastening. In accordance with the custom of the times, the building was intended to afford some of the conveniences of a tavern. In the southeastern corner was a kitchen, or cook-room, occupied by the jailer, and in the southeastern cor- ner a bar-room, in which the jailor served in the capacity of bar-tender. The chimney rose between these rooms, and opened into each in the shape of a large, old-fashioned fire-place. Another door was cut in the south side of the building, leading into an entry, on either side of which were doors to the kitchen and bar-room. In the southern part was the jail, which com- prised within its limits two prison rooms, divided the one from the other by a narrow aisle running north and south. This aisle communicated with the broad aisle by a door. Doors also opened from the prison-rooms into the narrow aisle. A flight of stairs led from the east entrance to the court-room in the second story, which did not differ materially from the court-rooms of the present day in its arrangement. Such was Windham county's first court- house. The old building, made historical as the scene of the Westminster massacre, was demolished about the year 1806.
All of the courts were held here until 1781, when, on the 19th of February, the general assembly passed an act dividing Windham county into half shires, called respectively Westminster and Marlboro, and one term of court was held 3

alternately at each place until 1787, when the half shire towns were abolished and the county town established at Newfane. A court house and jail were erected upon the summit of Newfane Hill, an elevation that rises like a cone in the center of the town. Here they remained until 1825, when they were re- moved to the site they now occupy, at Fayetteville, in the eastern part of the township of Newfane. About the court buildings at Newfane Hill was clus- tered quite a thriving village, consisting at one time of several stores, two hotels, a church, academy, several mechanic shops, and about twenty dwell- ings ; but now, and even as early as 1860, not a building remains to mark the pleasant site of the old shire of Windham county. A new court-house and jail were erected at Fayetteville, at a cost of $10,000 00, and, in 1853, by an act of the general assembly, commissioners were appointed who aitered and improved the public buildings at a cost of $13,000.00. Here the county records, etc., are kept, though the county clerk's office is located at Brattle- boro. The supreme court, however, holds its sessions at Brattleboro, on Monday following the second Tuesday after the fourth Tuesday in January, and the county court sits at Newfane on the second Tuesdays in March and September. The following lists give the principle officers of t'ie county from its organization to the present time, with the years in which they served and the admissions to the county bar, with the present members of the bar :-
JUSTICES OF THE PEACE.
The division of Cumberland county, February 16, 1781, as mentioned on page 26, closed the official term of justices of the peace for the county of Cumberland, who had been chosen and authorized by virtue of an act of the assembly passed at Bennington June 17, 1778, and the following justices of the peace became residents of Windham county, by virtue of the erection of the new county :-
Jonathan Knight, Duinmerston. Amos Haile, Putney.
Capt. Levi Goodnough, Guilford. Joshua Wehb, Rockingham.
Hubbel Wells, Halifax. Joseph Tyler, Townshend.
Edward Harris, Halifax. Nathaniel Robinson, Westminster.
While the constitution of 1777 was in force, the official term of justices of the peace, judges of the county court, judges of probate, and sheriffs, com- menced when the appointees were sworn, and continued during good behav- ior, they being subject to removal by the general assembly, upon proof of mal-administration, and were re-elected by ballot in town meetings. When the constitution, adopted by order of convention, July 4, 1786, took effect, incum- bents of these offices were chosen annually, by the joint assembly, at the ses- sion which commenced on every succeeding second Tuesday of October; but by a statute passed March 3, 1787, the official term was made to commence on the first day of December following the appointment, and to continue one year. During the first septenary, when justices of the peace were elected, the freemen were required to give in their votes for two justices of the peace "in each town wherein are one hundred taxable inhabitants; and in like

manner for one justice of the peace in each other town in the same county wherein are twenty taxable inhabitants." From 1781 to 1786, in which year the justices began to be elected annually, the justices of the peace were as follows :-
1781, April 17 .- Commissioned, Luke Knoulton, John Bridgman, Edward Aiken, Oliver Lovell, Elias Olcott, Nathan Fisk, Nathaniel Robinson, Noah Sabin, Jr., Lucas Wilson, Josiah Fish, Seth Oak, Jonathan Knight, Alexander Kathan, Samuel Warriner, Zadock Granger, Silas Hamilton, Josiah Locke, Edward Harris, Benjamin Henry, John Shepardson, and William Bullock.
1781, Oct. 25 .- Samuel Knight, appointed.
1783, May 22 .- Joshua Webb and John Lovell, of Rockingham, appointed in the place of Oliver Lovell and Elias Olcott, who declined serving.
1783, May 30 .- Capt. Daniel Taylor, of Newfane, appointed in the place of Luke Knoulton, who had left the State.
1783, Oct. 21 .- Thomas Taggert, of Halifax, appointed in the place of Ben- jamin Henry, resigned.
1784, Oct. 23 .- John Bridgman, appointed.
1785, June 6 .- Jesse Cook, of Wilmington, and Benjamin Olds, of Marlboro, appointed.
1785, June 18 .- Benjamin Henry, of Halifax, appointed.

Under this statute the following named persons have been elected judges, at the October session of the legislature held in the year set opposite their names :-
