Dog River runs through the town in a northerly direction, affording many valua- ble water privileges, most of which are now improved. The East Branch runs from Bennett's Pond, which is on the highland near the Williamstown line. From this pond, when the water is high, a stream runs north to Berlin Pond. Just below the eastern outlet Mr. Edward H. Howes has a saw-mill. The first mill built on that site was put up by Aquillo Jones ; soon after Judge Paine built the first mill in town, which was on the same stream, about one mile below. About 2 miles further east, and near South Northfield, this stream unites with a brook which runs from a large pond in East Roxbury. A few rods north of this junction, Geo. H. Fisher has a shingle mill and carriage- shop, and Warren C. Briggs has a black-

smith shop and knife factory, both deriving power from the same water-wheel. About 20 rods north of these shops is a large building occupied by Martin Cobleigh and Geo. W. Kingsbury, for the manufacture of doors, sash and blinds, they having also, across the road, another large building used, in connection with this, as a paint- shop. A few rods further down the stream is a two story building, about 40x60, occu- pied by L. N. Howe as a chair factory ; adjoining this is the grist-mill of Thomas Slade; further down the stream, a few rods, is a small factory used by S. D. Dodge for cloth-dressing and wool-carding, and a little below, W. W. Holden has a shop for the manufacture of coffins, cas- kets and chairs, the aforesaid comprising all manufacturing establishments now in operation at So. Northfield.

About one mile from the South village, N. W., the east branch unites with the river, the main branch of which runs from Stump Pond, which is partly in Roxbury and, part in Northfield. Just below the outlet of this pond, G. B. Andrews has a grist-mill, to which a large part of the in- habitants of Roxbury, and many of North- field, carry their grain to be ground. A few rods north, Joseph C. Rice has a saw- mill, and just below that stands the car- riage-shop of Gilbert R. Andrews. About half way from Andrews' mill to the Har- low Bridge are the ruins of a saw-mill, where in former years, a large amount of lumber was manufactured. No further use is made of the river as motive power till we reach, nearly 4 miles further north, the location of Judge Paine's first woolen fac- tory. The brick building now standing there is occupied by A. F. Spalding as a machine-shop and for the manufacture of pumps ; by Newell & Colby for the manu- facture of chair stock and fork handles ; by Henry R. Bean for the manufacture of fork and broom handles; and by Brown, Denny & Harris for the manufacture of lumber, they having, also, a grist-mill and saw-mill in an adjoining building ; about 30 feet north is a large building used for the manufacture of slate, power being car- ried thereto from the brick building, above

named, by belting. About } mile further down the stream is the woolen factory built in 1864, by George M. Fisk, now occupied by A. Howarth & Son as a flan- nel factory, employing about 30 hands ; adjoining this, and using the same power, is the extensive machine-shop and foun- dry, built in - by Perley Belknap, and now occupied by the Ely Foundry Co., and giving employment to about 30 men ; about 4 mile further on is the grist-mill of Lewis Wood & Son ; a half-mile below we find the ruins of a mill, and near to that the first-class brick building owned by Jo- seph W. Gould, and occupied by him for the manufacture of woolen flannels. Mr. Gould has one of the very finest establish- ments of the kind to be found in the coun- ty, and gives employment to about 100 people. On Cox brook, which runs into Dog River at Gouldsville, is a very fine saw-mill, owned by John Hornbrook; on Jones Brook, which runs in further up the river, H. M. Cutler has a large lum- ber mill; on Stevens Brook W. A. Rice has a saw-mill ; and on Rocky Brook, Geo. F. Glidden has a large saw-mill. By steam, the Ely Foundry run their ma- chinery in low water times, and the Adams Slate Co. run a derrick by steam-power, for raising stone from their quarry.

GEO. H. RICHMOND.

has also a steam engine, used for power to run his printing presses, and to heat the building occupied by him. Mr. Rich- mond publishes The Northfield News, a pa- per started by him in 1878, now having a circulation of 1200, and also The Vermont Farmer, circulating 2400 copies weekly, which was removed to Northfield from Montpelier in 1881. He prints, also, The Reveille, a monthly periodical, published by the cadets of Lewis College ; and The Monthly Reporter, published by C. F. Buswell of Montpelier. In the same building is "The Northfield Insurance Agency," managed by Joseph K. Egerton. Just south of the News Block, above men- tioned, is the extensive marble works of F. L. Howe & Co .; 30 feet further south is Central Block, now occupied by Boyn- ton & Moseley, for the sale of meat &

provisions ; George Nichols, drugs & medicines : A. E. Denny, groceries & hardware; C. Denny & Co., dry goods ; Stebbins & Richmond, groceries & provis- ion . G. H. Crane, dry goods ; Fred Down- ing, saloon : Edwin Porter, drugs & med- icines ; S. P. Grow, boots & shoes : J. N. Johnson, lawyer ; F. R. Bates & F. Plum- ley, lawyers ; C. W. Locklin, dentist ; the third story of the building in two very fine halls, is occupied by the Masons and the Odd Fellows. West of Central block is Concert hall, capable of seating 500, and over that the Universalist church ; further west, a few feet, is Eagle block, occupied by Geo. B. B. Denny, for the sale of cloth- ing ; W. A. Blake, groceries : Kenyon & Soper, groceries, crockery & fancy goods ; S. F. Judd, groceries ; E. O. Thurston, watches & jewelry ; D. Bacon, flour, meal & groceries ; Hazleton, Kimball & Deer- ing, meat & produce ; Mrs. Jones, milli- nery; W. C. Woodbury & F. N. Carpen- ter, barbers. Union block, just opposite on the south, is occupied by J. C. B. Thayer, for the sale of clothing; by the Northfield Savings Bank, of which J. C. B. Thayer is Treasurer ; Edgerton Broth- ers, for the sale of merchandize of every description ; E. G. Pierce, groceries ; Geo. M. Fisk, lawyer ; O. S. Cook, leggins & mittens ; L. S. Wellington & D. P. Holt, boots & shoes. East of Union Block is R. M. McIntosh, photographic rooms, occu- pied also by N. W. Gilbert, dentist. West of Union Block is Stevens Block, occupied by A. Stevens, for the sale of books & stationery; T. C. Patterson, boots & shoes; Rene S. Fletcher, milli- nery ; north of Stevens Block is the R. R. Depot, one room of which is occupied by the Northfield National Bank; another room by E. G. Sanborn, for a boot & shoe store ; and one by Mrs. M. S. Gilchrist, for the sale of millinery goods ; also, the express & telegraph office, by C. A. Webb.

Opposite the Depot, east across the pub- lic square, which is about 200x400 feet, is the Northfield House, built by George M. Fisk about 2 years since, on a part of the ground covered by the hotel burned in 1879. It is now kept by W. H. Morris,

who keeps also a livery stable ; and adjoin- ing this hotel, on the south, is the post- office. A few rods south, on main street, is the Avery Hotel and Livery Stable, kept by L. W. Avery ; about } mile further south is the tannery owned and occupied by Den- ny & Smith ; a little further south, in what was formerly the Center village of the town, is the general store of John P. Davis, and a blacksmith shop and carriage shop run by R. T. Eastman ; and a broom factory by Thomas Averill. On the west side of the river, opposite the Depot, is the C. O. D. store by Darius Thomas; a blacksmith shop by A. Fuller ; a coffin and carriage- shop, owned and occupied by G. W. Max- ham. A short distance west is the carriage and machine shop of D. Bacon ; easterly across the R. R. track, is the carriage shop of A. Mead; the blacksmith shop of A. Gosley & Son ; the carriage shop of A. O. Chase ; the paint shop of W. R. Bean; and the blacksmith shop of Ai Smith. South a short distance, is the carriage shop of J. B. Shortridge ; across the

Gibbs; the black- smith shop of J. R. Davis ; and the carriage shop of A. C. Chase.

At Gouldsville is the general store of A. F. An- drews ; the grocery and provision store of C. F. Hurley ; harness shop of A. H. Brown; and black- smith shop of Greenwood ; a considerable business is done in. the manufacture of whetstones by L. Wood & Son and by Geo. S. Richards.

Northfield Circulating Library contains about 1,000 volumes.

There are in town two well equipped Fire Engine companies, of 50 men each, and a Hook & Ladder company of 20 men.

In the quarrying and manufacture of slate stone a very large amount of money was formerly invested. Eleven quarries were opened, at an expense of more than $200,000, nearly all of which would now with good management yield large profits to the manufacturers. The supply of slate is inexhaustible, and in quality equal to the best in the world.

The Adams Slate Co. have been working their quarry successfully since 1869; in 1881, employing 40 men and sending out of town 100 car loads of slate. At the present time, this Co. is at work in the Morris quarry, and expect in 1882, to dou- ble the amount of their business.

NORTHFIELD.

There is in town a very extensive gran- ite ledge, which was formerly worked in a small way. It is very favorably located for quarrying, but wholly neglected.

There have been 17 saw-mills in North- field. Of this number 7 are now in oper- ation. At different times 9 grist-mills have been run, and there are now 4 in town. Of woolen factories the town has had 5, of these 3 are now at work. Of wood-shops the town has had a large num- ber, the largest of which, that of the Vt. Manufacturing Co., which had been suc- cessfully engaged in the manufacture of chairs for years, was burned in 1877.

Brick-making was formerly an important branch of industry in Northfield, but al- though there is a plentiful supply of mate- rial, very favorably located for the busi- ness, nothing has been done in that line for many years.

THEODA P. HOWE

was born in Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 20, 1813. Her parents removed to Norwich, Vt., when she was quite young, and to Northfield in 1835, where she was mar- ried to Wm. R. Tucker. She died in 1845, leaving a son and daughter, both re- siding now (1882), in Washington, D. C. Her first articles for publication were written at Norwich when she was only a child, for the Vermont Enquirer, a paper published at that place. For several years she was a contributor to various Vermont and Boston journals. As her writings were never collected in book form, this piece given is the only one at hand, and is hardly a fair specimen of her poetry : [See Poets and Poetry of Vermont, where the same is published.]

TO AN ANTUMN BOUGH.

Bright autumn leaves, when you I see, No visions dread my bosom swell ;

You wake no saddened thoughts for me, Though my sad fate you seem to tell.

But late I saw the forest green Slight waving in the summer alr,

But now the changing tints are seen, Which only antumin forests wear.

And you have faded not more fast Than she who loved sweet autumn's gloom;

Her moments here will soon be past, With you she soon will find a tomb.

This bough by some kind hand was sought, To soothe her on her couch of pain,

And from the favorite grove was brought, Which she can never see again.

Now would she rest mid sylvan bowers,

Where murm'ring pines their hranches wave;

Better are withered leaves than flowers To strew upon her early grave. T. P. H.

PERLEY BELKNAP.

Simeon Belknap, a native of Connecti- cut, who had purchased a tract of land in Randolph, returning from which to his former home, was one of those who was so unfortunate as to be taken and carried away captive from the sacking and burning of Royalton, by Lieutenant Horton of the British army, in 1780. He was taken to Canada and held a prisoner of war for 2 years, when he, with some of his compan- ions, managed to escape and return to the

. 698

States ; after which he settled on his Ran- dolph estate, where his son Perley was born in 1807.

Perley married Huldah, daughter of Dr. John Edson of that town, and while still engaged in the foundry business there, at the earnest solicitation of Gov. Paine, embarked in a similar enterprise in North- field, in connection with some other par- ties, whose interests in the business he soon purchased, however, and removed to this town for permanent residence about the year 1849. He bought the water pow- er below the old Paine factory, where he established his foundry, and afterwards a machine shop, and taking into partnership his brother-in-law, John H. Edson, they employed from 30 to 50 men for many years. The business of the machine shop was largely the manufacture of water wheels and circular saw and clapboard mills, which were sold in large numbers, and sent to all parts of this country, and some to foreign lands. He also had a grist-mill, built a woolen-mill for other parties to operate, wherein the spindles and shuttles are still running at the pres- ent time.

Mr. Belknap was a director in the North- field Bank from the time of its incorpora- tion until he was elected its President, a position to which he was successively re- elected for 12 or 15 years. He has never held any important civil office, having steadily declined to put himself in the way of political preferment, which used some- times to be suggested to him by his friends. He has been a large owner of, and dealer in, real estate, consisting of business blocks, mills, houses, farms, &c., some of which are still in his possession, though he has partially retired from active busi- ness life.

Mr. Belknap is a very genial, compan- ionable man.

The above was contributed by Dr. Gil- bert.

LITERARY CLUBS-1882.

There have been several Shaksperian clubs within the last 12 years. The most recently organized and the only one .now holding meetings is called the Salvini

Shaksperian Club. It has 16 members ; Rev. F. W. Bartlett, president. Meet- ings, fortnightly.

The Conversational Club is also now in operation, for social and intellectual im- provement, and discourses on practical, literary and scientific subjects ; member- ship limited to sixteen. Rev. F. W. Bart- lett is president ; Rev. Wm. S. Hazen, vice president ; C. A. Edgerton, Jr., sec- retary ; Professor Charles Dole, treas- urer. Meetings, every two weeks.

THE HEALING WATERS.

BY F. W. BARTLETT.

[The following song, to the air of "Sparkling and Bright," was composed when on a visit to a mineral spring in Northern Vt.]

Come let us abide near the fountain side, The streamlet of health and beauty, Where the spring sprites dwell in the charming dell To dispense their golden booty;

For the precious grains, from the earth's rich veins, Crown with gems, bright in their glory,

The goblet of health, and of joy and wealth, Never dreamed of in mythic story.

CHORUS .- Then here's to thee, so true and free, THY HEALTH-for ours is owing

To the magic grains, which, in our veins, Are all of thine own bestowing.

Let the Bacchanal dare to love the glare Of his fire-water, red and glowing,

Where the pale fiend lurks, and his mischief works, In the seeds of death he is sowing ; But give us the joy without alloy, Which flows from the cup of healing,

As with finger of light, the spring fay bright Is the pathway of hope revealing. CHORUS .- Then here's to thee, etc.

PLUMLEY : additional and correction of page 646, not received in time, by our go- ing to press a day before the time named. First, the name of Mr. Plumley's wife be- fore marriage was Lavinia L. Fletcher ; and not Lamina, as before printed from the Northfield History of '78.

In 1876, Mr. Plumley was elected State's attorney for Washington County on the Republican ticket, and again in 1878, hold- ing the office 4 years, and during that time successfully prosecuting many impor- tant State cases ; among others, Royal W. Carr, and Almon and Emeline Meeker for murder.
