MANUFACTORIES.
Samuel Richardson built the first saw and grist-mill in town, 13 miles from the village, on the Warren road. He after- wards built another on the west branch of Dog River, about half a mile from the vil- lage. Elijah Ellis built a saw and clover- mill in 1818, where S. N. Miller's carriage shop now is. The clover-mill was swept away by freshet in 1830; the saw-mill had the same fate in 1832 ; latter was rebuilt.
John McNeal erected a frame for a saw- mill in the " four mile woods," on a branch of Dog River, in 1825, Samuel Orcutt fin- ished it, and it done good business until 1830; it was swept away by a freshet, which seemed the common fate of mills of those days. David Wellington built a saw-mill in 1825, near where E. N. Spaul- ding's steam-mill now stands.
Charles Colton put a grist-mill into the same building shortly afterwards. Amos Wellington built a saw-mill on the West hill in 1839, now owned by Asahel Flint. Josiah Shaw built a clover-mill on east branch of Dog River, in the East part of the town.
John M. Spaulding, in 1822, built a saw- mill near the Richardson grist-mill, and another, several years afterwards, in the village, now owned by J. G. Hall.
John Prince built a saw-mill, in 1849, near where Spaulding's mill now stands, and also manufactured butter-tubs. now owned by E. P. Burnham for a clap-board mill.
Samuel Robertson and Leicester Davis
erected a building in 1820, on the farm where W. I. Simonds now lives, for the purpose of manufacturing wooden bowls and plates. But it did not prove a success and was given up in a few years. Jotham Ellis built a mill in 18- for manufacturing wooden boxes, clothes-pins, turning bed- posts, &c. Later it was used by Siloam Spaulding for a carriage shop, and by Philander Wiley for turning, &c.
Stillman Ruggles built a carriage shop in the east part of the town in 1830, and carried on the carriage business until 1850. Samuel Ruggles and S. N. Miller carried on the same business there afterwards.
S. N. Miller commenced carriage-mak- ing near the Elijah Ellis saw-mill in 1860, and still continues at the business there.
Howard Warriner had a cabinet-shop in the south-east part of the town, and Mr. Wright built a saw-mill on the same stream west of Warriner's shop.
Luther and David Ellis built a saw-mill on the middle branch of Dog river in 1850 ; Laban Webster & F. A. Wiley on middle branch of Dog river in 1869; Ebenezer Brackett in the south part of the town in 1848 ; sold to Thomas Cushing, of Dover, N. H. A vast amount of bridge timber, plank and ties were sawed here for the Vt. Central when being built. E. N. Spaul- ding and Samuel R. Batchelder built a steam-mill in the south-west part of the town in 1849. Henry Smith built a saw- mill on "Tracy Hill " in 1823; burned in 1835 ; Joseph Wardner a saw and grist- mill in the east part of the town, now owned by Jacob Wardner, and Bezaleel Spaulding a saw-mill on his farm in 1848.
Benjamin H. Warriner built a shop near the " old Hutchinson place" in 1829, for the manufacture of sleighs, chairs and furniture of all kinds, and in 1835 put in machinery for manufacturing window-sash, blinds, etc.
James Cram built a saw-mill on the brook above the Hutchinson place In 1830.
Daniel Kingsley commenced wool card- ing in 1800, in the east part of the town.
Harrison and Charles Fields built a steam saw-mill about a mile below E. N. Spaulding's in -, and after carrying on

an extensive business for two years, moved it to Richmond.
E. N. Spaulding's steam saw-mill, built in 1866, has turned off yearly an average of 1,500,000 feet of lumber. He has also manufactured croquet to a considerable extent.
William Bruce & Sons built a steam- mill in the south part of the town in 1877. It was burned in 1880, and rebuilt. This mill, as well as E. N. Spaulding's, has fur- nished employment for a great many hands. Ira Williams & Victor Spear are now erecting a steam saw-mill in the south-east part of the town.
Dan Tarbell erected a steam saw-mill near the railroad crossing in the village in 1881, not yet thorougly completed.
Charles Samson owned a distillery and manufactured potato whisky on the west hill, near what is now called " Wetmore place."
Billa Woodard manufactured saddle- trees several years, and Eleazer Woodard later carried on the same business.
Ephraim Morris & Nathan Kendall owned a tannery at the foot of East Hill, on land now owned by Wm. B. Orcutt. They carried on the business only a few years.
In 1853, immense veins of
VERD ANTIQUE MARBLE
were discovered. A large building was erected, with steam power for working the marble. It was found to be very beauti- ful, and capable of receiving a high polish. Monuments, tables, mantels, etc., man- ufactured were extremely beautiful, but the company became involved in debt, and the property was sold in 1856, to pay liabilities. It was purchased by an asso- ciation under the name of " Verd Antique Marble Company," for the amount pre- viously expended. It was then managed by a joint stock company, but finally sus- pended business in 1857.
THE WATCH FACTORY
Hall Mfg. Co.," between J. G. Hall and his son, F. W. Hall, for the manufacture of watchmakers' tools, principally a " Stak- ing Tool," the invention of J. G. Hall, which meets with a ready sale, owing to the very fine workmanship and correctness exercised in their manufacture, they being worthless unless exact. These tools are in use in nearly every State in the Union, and also in Canada, France and England. They also manufacture a variety of small tools for watch-repairers' use. The Co. had a sample of their tools on exhibition at the State Fair in 1880, receiving the only gold medal awarded in Mechanics' Hall.
THE FIRST MAIL ROUTE
through Roxbury was up the first branch of White river from W. Randolph, through Braintree and Kingston (now Granville), up the old road to John Spaulding's hotel, near the Royal Batchelder place. John Spaulding was postmaster. Guy Edson carried the first mail in 1826. It being known the mail was to arrive at such a . time, there was a great gathering and re- joicing, and a little new rum as a matter of course. The route continued down the old road east to Elijah Ellis' (now Mrs. Brackett's), thence north by the old Joseph Hixon place, Samuel Robertson's, John Paine's, Nathan Haynes', and then on to the hill near where Clark Wiley now lives, to Northfield. The mail run that way until about 1830. In 1828, the county road from Northfield line to Granville, through Roxbury village, was surveyed by David M. Lane, county surveyor. In 1830, John Spaulding having built the Summit House, where the village now is, the mail commenced running on that road, with a daily stage of 4 or 6-horse coach for some years ; then the stage and mail went from West Randolph through East Roxbury to Northfield, and the mail was carried to West Randolph and back with a horse and gig until the railroad was built in 1848. The cars came to Roxbury 40 days before the road was completed to Northfield, making it a very lively busi- ness place. Teams from as far as Bur-
was built in 1867. It is located in a lovely and picturesque place, a short distance west from the depot. 12 hands are now employed there. Aug. 1, 1879, a partner- ship was formed, under the title, "J. G. | lington for freight, 6 and 8-horse teams,

making it very profitable for inn-keepers those days.
OUR LARGE CATAMOUNT.
A large catamount was killed in town in 1823. Allen Spaulding gives this account. He had been calling on his sweetheart, who lived near the " Leonard place." The fair Hattie was the best of company. and he could hardly credit his senses when he started for home and saw the rosy morn- ing peeping over the eastern hills. As he was making rapid strides on, he noticed the huge track of some animal in the new snow, and the track seemed a new one. He examined it closely, and came to the conclusion it was a bear track, and thought he would get help and capture him. Jo- seph Batchelder and himself followed the trail all day, but without once getting a glimpse of "the bear," and Batchelder gave it up in disgust. Spaulding, how- ever, renewed the pursuit the next morn- ing, accompanied by Capt. Young, who had quite an exalted opinion of his own prowess and skill in hunting, of bears, es- pecially. They struck a new track in the light snow, and followed it to a ledge op- posite the old steam-mill. Matters were becoming quite interesting, but "Capt. Sip." declared "by the gods he never was afraid of a bear, and if Spaulding would go one way he would go the other, and start him out," but he took another look at the huge track, and his ardor cooled a little. He concluded they had better keep together. They had not pro- ceeded far when they heard a fierce growl and a bound, and saw the leaves flying in every direction, but by the time they had got around the ledge, the animal was out of sight, making 20 feet at a leap. Spaul- ding thought it could never be a bear, but " by the gods it is," persisted Capt. Sip., "and a regular old long fellow, too." They followed on till dusk, and gave up the chase for that day. The next morn- ing tracks were seen near Billa Woodard's, on East Hill, and James McNeil, Charles Ellis, Ira Spaulding and Orrin Orcutt started in pursuit. Charles Ellis getting a glimpse of the hunted animal's tawny
tree." They soon found they had a rather different foe to meet, and that without rifles. They had only shot-guns loaded with slugs to contend with a huge cata- mount, but they gave him a salute from two or three, breaking his shoulder, and down the nerce animal came, about 20 feet, caught on a limb, ran up again, turning on his pursuers with open mouth, preparing for a spring. One of the party gave him a charge of "chain-links" in the open mouth, when he turned and jumped the other way, tearing huge splinters from a fallen tree and the earth up around him in every direction in his death agonies. He was the largest catamount ever killed in the State previous to the one killed in Barnard the present season. They were of the same length and height, but the last killed was several pounds heavier. He was sold at auction to Orrin Orcutt, prepared for and kept on exhibition until every one had seen him in this vicinity, and then sold to Mr. Ralph, of Warren, a man in poor health and indigent circumstances, who made quite a fortune taking him about the country.
About this time there was also a moose killed near the old pond, the man who was so fortunate being very destitute. The meat (he was a large fellow), was a per- fect " God-send " to his family.
CHURCH HISTORY
is very meagre here. There have been no records kept of the early churches. The Methodist and Calvinist Baptist seem to have been first organized. The first min- ister publicly ordained in town was
OPHIR SHIPMAN.
The charter of the town allowed the first ordained minister a lot of land, and Rev. Lyman Culver was privately ordained, and claimed the lot, it is said, but there was great dissatisfaction. Mr. O. Richardson says they came to his uncle, Samuel Rob- ertson, in the night to let him know it, and he went to Northfield after 12 o'clock at night, and the next day Rev. Ophir Shipman was ordained.
BAPTISTS.
Rev. Lyman Culver was one of the coat, declared, " the dog had a fox up a | earliest Baptist preachers (probably the
751
ROXBURY.
first), and resided in town several years. Friend Blood and Jehial Claflin preached considerably from 1835 to '45. A good old Baptist lady was " churched " for com- muning with the Methodists, and she with several others joined the Congregational- ists about this time.
There was a Calvinistic Baptist church in town many years, but I find no record of it now. Mrs. Woodard is the only member of the Baptist church left in town. A great revival was brought about in that church in this manner. A little girl over- heard her mother and a neighbor talking of the necessity for a Christian life, and the beauty and purity of a true Christian character, and was so deeply impressed that she went to praying earnestly in se- cret, and came out a shining light, leading others of her companions to do likewise, until it spread into the most extended re- vival ever in town.
METHODISTS IN ROXBURY.
As early as 1813, how much earlier I am unable to say, the Methodists held their meetings at Eleazer Woodard's and David Young's. Benjamin F. Hoyt preached in 1813, Joel Winch from 1820 to '30, E. J. Scott in 1830, '33, John Smith, called Happy John, in 1834, and Hollis Kendall, a native of Roxbury, preached here sev- eral years. He moved to Maine, and died there a few years since. Ariel Fay and John Mason preached here at different times. None of these, with the exception of Hollis Kendall, lived in town. Those early Methodists are nearly all gone to their reward. Phineas Wiley, or " Father " Wiley, as he was called for years, died in 1881. I think he was the last member of the first Methodist church formed in town. The first meeting house was built in 1837, a union church.
CONGREGATIONALISTS.
Of the Congregationalist ministers who preached here in the early times were Rev. Mr. Hobart, of Berlin, Elijah Lyman, of Brookfield, Ammi Nichols, of Braintree, as early as 1814, and meetings were held at Samuel Robertson's and at the old school-house that stood north of where O. A. Staples now lives.
THE FREE CONGREGATIONALIST CHURCH was organized about 1837, by Rev. Ammi Nichols, of Braintree, and what remained of the Methodists and most of the Baptist church joined with them, but they never had a settled minister until 1865, when Rev. A. Ladd was ordained and installed pastor, and remained here until the au- tumn of 1879. They built a pleasant and convenient house of worship in 1871. Samuel Edwards and W. I. Simonds are the only deacons ever chosen, both of whom now officiate.
A CHRISTIAN CHURCH was organized in the east part of the town in 1868. Rev. Henry Howard is present pastor (1882).
Rev. EDWARD BROWN, Universalist, lived in town several years, where John Baird now resides, and preached a part of the time.
The different religious organizations of this town have been: Congregationalist, Methodist, Episcopal, Free Will Baptist, Calvinist Baptist, Christian, Universalist and Spiritualist.
GOLDEN WEDDINGS .- I learn of two having been celebrated in this town, that of Mr. and Mrs. James Wiley, in 1871, and Mr. and Mrs. Otis Batchelder in 1880.

ROXBURY BOYS ABROAD.
Andrew Stanton, a graduate of Tufts College, is now " principal" in the academy at Stoughton, Mass. Will Snow gradua- ted at Hanover, and is now a civil engi- neer in Montana.
There are a good many graduates of the Normal school in town, Will Simonds was one, who is now teaching near Chicago, Ill.
Lucius Jenney went from this town, about 20 years ago, to Middlesex, and from there to Omaha, Neb., and now oc- cupies the position of R. R. Master on the Union Pacific R. R.
Benj. J. Ellis went from here when a very young man, enlisted and served through the Mexican war; after its close went to Chicago, Ill., and took up the pro- fession of law. He has assisted in organ- izing and sustaining several mission schools, some of them now flourishing churches, and he often supplies the pulpit, as well as pleads at the Bar.
S. G. Stanton went to Nebraska in 1879, and is engaged in building a railroad on the Union Pacific. Mr. Stanton was an active business man.
Mr. O. Richardson moved to Belling- ham, Mass., in '78. Is engaged in the mercantile business. He had been organ-

ist and leader of the choir at the Union church for 20 years when he left town. He was an adopted son of Samuel Rich- ardson, with whom Mr. R. spent his de- clining years.
John Webster, of east part of town, went to California in '57, has been success- ful in business, and amassed quite a for- tune. Z. S. S.
Will R. Mansfield, at the age of 20, took his small valise in hand and started for the "far west." He stopped a few weeks in Nebraska as telegraph operator on the B. & M. R. R. He then accepted the position of baggage-master and tele- graph operator on a new branch of the Atchison, Topeka & Sante Fe R. R., through New Mexico, and served 2 months, when he was invited to dine with an old Spaniard at Los Vegas, for whom he had done some slight service, and started to return to Grenada, Col. in the caboose that was sent ahead of President Hayes and his escort, on their way from Califor- nia, to see that the road was clear. The party in the " caboose" had been "looking upon the wine when it was red," and when the " caboose" gave a great bound, and any sober person must have known there was some obstruction, they declared there was "nothing wrong," nor would they stop to see whether there was or not. So this Vermont boy turned the brake, caught a lantern and jumped off, and upon examination, several feet of rails were gone, and he had nothing to do there in the wilds of N. M. but wait for the train, and this was. not a pleasant task as the coyotes began to gather from every direc- tion. This was his first experience of the kind, and grim terror seized him, quick as a flash, he sprang up a telegraph-pole close at hand, and sitting astride the cross-bar, watched the howling pack, thinking all the while what an excellent mark he would be for an Indian, and it was far from being an agreeable thought. At last the train came up and he clambered down from his perch, gave a great shout at the wolves and swung his lantern to stop the train. The wolves scattered, and the train had to stop for re- pairs. For this act of faithfulness, he was
promoted at once to conductor, and has occupied that position until the present time.

ROXBURY'S MILITARY RECORD.
BY ZED S. STANTON, ESQ.
Among the early settlers of Roxbury were doubtless several who served during the Revolutionary War, but just what number it is impossible to determine. Samuel Richardson, the first settler in the westerly part of this town, was a veteran of that war, having served one-half the time during the entire contest. He came to Roxbury in 1790: Mr. Richardson was born at Stafford, Conn., June 15, 1750, and died at Roxbury, in 1822.
Capt. Benjamin Samson, who came here in 1810, was also a Revolutionary soldier, and participated in the battles of Lexing- ton and Bunker Hill. He rang the church bell to arouse the minute men on Lexing- ton green, on the memorable 19th of April, I775.
BATTLE OF PLATTSBURG.
On the morning of Saturday, Sept. 10, 1814, a company, consisting of all the able-bodied men in town, under command of Capt. Samuel M. Orcutt, left Roxbury for the purpose of assisting in repelling the British invasion of our Northern borders. All the following Sunday those who were left at home heard the distant roar of cannon, and supposed that their loved ones were engaged in battle with the foreign foe. But the men of Roxbury did not arrive at Plattsburg until Monday evening, Sept. 12, and the fighting was then over. They returned to their homes Friday, Sept. 16, 1814.
