MARSHFIELD MILITARY RECORD.
SOLDIERS OF 1812.
This place furnished S: Abijah Beinis, Phineas Bemis, Obadiah Bemis, David Cutting, John Waugh, Abijah Hall, Isaac Austin, and l'hilip Delan.
Lewis Bemis, a brother of three of these soldiers, was also from this town, though he enlisted from Barnet. His father and friends all resided here, and he should have a notice here. He belonged to the old 4th regiment, which was sent out un- der Col. Miller to the then territory of Ohio, to look after the Indians who were making depredations on the frontier set- tlements. At one time they came to the dwelling of a Mr. Harriman. (whose wife was the daughter of Alexander Parker of Montpelier, and sister of Mrs. James Pit- kin of this town. ) just about an hour after the savages had murdered and left him and his family. They pressed on, but failed to overtake the Indians, and soon after joined the main body under the infa- mous Gen- Hull on its way to Fort Detroit. Before arriving at Detroit, Col- Miller saw Hull's treachery, and accused him of it. and challenged him to fight a duel, both before and after their arrival, quite in vain ; he surrendered the fort and army without firing a gun In that fort, among our filen, were a number of British who had
deserted and joined our army. The next morning, and two or three succeeding mornings, our army was paraded and the British officers walked along and inspected it, and when they saw a British soldier, he was tapped on the shoulder, and con- manded to step out. Where they had suspicions, and yet were not certain as to their being British subjects, they would question them. A number of times Mr. Bemis, though he never saw Ireland, was asked, " In what town in Ireland were you born "? Each time his answer was, " I was born in Paxham, in Massachusetts." One poor fellow, the first time they came round, succeeded in squinting his eyes so as fairly to deceive them, and after that succeeded in . slipping down ar embank- ment just in the right time to save his life. About 40 of these poor deserters were taken out and shot. The army, surren- dered by Hull, was then taken to Quebec, and confined in a prison-ship on the St. Lawrence, where they were allowed but one half pint of water per day, though their prison was floating on the river, and if any one attempted to let down a cup for water. he was shot down. Three-fourths of the prisoners eventually died from the cruelties there received. The rest were eventually exchanged.
JESSE WEBSTER died in Marshfield, Oct. 20, 1878, aged 83 years. He was one of the Plattsburgh volunteers, and had an application for pension pending at the time of his death.
It is not known that any one enlisted from this town, in the war with Mexico.
But when the great rebellion broke out. that intensity of feeling which thrilled from the prairies of the West to the shores of the Atlantic, found an answering tone among our hills, and by our firesides. And as call after call for reinforcements came, the father left his family, the son his pa- rents, in many cases, alas ! to return no morc.

In 1863 a draft was ordered; 34 men were drafted, but only one, Cottrill Clif- ford, went into the service; 22 paid their commutation money. Clifford served his time, was discharged, and accidentally killed on his way home. I do not find his name in our list of soldiers ; probably he was put in to fill up some regiment sep- arately from our other men.
There went out 98 from us, 28 of whom never returned. A few were brought back to be buried, but most of our dead sleep on Southern soil. In the vigor of young manhood they went, one and another, who were household treasures.

MONTPELIER & WELLS RIVER RAILROAD.
When the history of Marshfield was written eleven years ago, we had no rail- road. About this time a charter was granted for the Montpelier & Wells River road, which passes through our town about a mile from the village. The town bonded itself in the sum of $17,500, and private subscriptions made up the sum of $30,000. All is paid but about half the bonds.
The first train of cars went through here Nov. 29. 1873. Of course the rejoicing was great.
A year or two later we were connected with the rest of the world by telegraph. The advantage to the public is not casily estimated. The railroad 'is doing good business. L. D. Nute is station agent and telegraph operator. A private telegraph is owned and run by George A. Putnam and I. D. Nute, from the depot to Put- nam's store, where the post-office is lo- cated. Mr. and Mrs. Putnam are Iclegraph operators.

BY MXS. HANNAIL C. PITKIN.
For thec. busy man, In a forest lone A shoot hath started, a tree hath grown. The axe-man. perchance, may have Jald It low For thy narrow bouse-It Is ready now. All ready-but mortal, art thou, art thou ?
Malden, thy dream of afectlon so wartu. Trust not. The shroud to envelop thy form Is woven, Is coming. by wind or ware; 'Tis thine, by a stan:p which no mortal gare. Thou eanst not turu from the path to the grave.
Art thou tolling for wealth, the weary day; Or thirsting for fame-there's a pillow of clay On a lowly bed, 'Us walling thee there. The mould and the wormu thy pillow will share: Spirit, Oli, where Is thy refuge-Oh, where?
TO THE ITINERANT'S WIFE. BY MRS. L. C. PITKIX.
Out on the ocean, dark and wild A Uille bark was driven.
One Aludly star looked out and mulled A precious boon from heaven : It warned of threatening near.
JosL, Just In time the rocks to clear.
I stood upon a point of land Where ocean billows came.
A beauteous wave Just kissed the strand. Then scanned swept azalp. 'Twas gone, to come again no tuore. But left a geni opon the shore.
A wanderer lone mid desert's waste. Beneath a burning sky. Sank down at last despairingly. Hle felt that be must die. My Island Home, so dear to the, I never, never more may ice!
Oh God: Le erled. A tiny dower Just caught his eloslug eje. And In Its winsome loveliness, It seemed to whisper " try." God lives, lake heart, so o'er the main lle found his Island Howe agaja.
So sister, like the star be thine To bless the tempest driven. And pelal to poor despairing oues The usrrow way to Heaven. And In the wanderer's dark cel hour. Sweetly to win bit like the flower.
Iu blessing De thou over bieni, Cheer age, snd counsel youth. And ever where thy psihwsy lies, Scatter the gems of truth. And hear, when Death is lost In I.the Miesaings on the Illnerant's Wife.

been sent to the Claremont Manufacuring Company of New Hampshire, and by them withheld four years, with the other Wash- ington County papers sent, under their proposition to immediately print. We wrote to Mrs. Pitkin for a duplicate of her history. Unable, from the infirmities of her age and feebleness, from fully under- taking to so do, she engaged the assist- ance of Rev. Mr. Forbes, who gave us a very reliable and pleasant paper of about half the length of Mrs. Pitkin's paper, with which we were pleased and should have published, had we not fortunately mean- time recovered Mrs. Pitkin's papers, which as they are the fullest record, as she was first invited to write, and is so eminently a Washington County woman, daughter of old Gen. Parley Davis, of Montpelier, and a long-time honored and beloved res- ident of Marshfield, we are assured no other writer could be so acceptable to Marshfield, and none other to the County, and so have given the papers of Mrs. Pit- kin in full, nearly; and will here but ap- pend a few extracts from the paper by Mr. Forbes, containing information or points in it not in Mrs. Pitkin's paper ; while we feel to express under the circumstances more thanks to Mr. Forbes than if able to give his paper more fully-Ed.]
Marshfield is situated in the eastern part of the County, and lies on both sides of the Winooski river, which flows through it from north to south. The soil is a mix- ture of clay and loam ; the surface broken and hilly, is divided into productive farms. The river valley, and that part of the town lying west of it, contains the best tillage land, which has very largely been brought under cultivation. The eastern part, more rocky, is used principally for pasturage ; although in the eastern part in some sec- tions there are some good farms.
The original forests were heavy timbered with maple, beech, birch, spruce and hem- lock, and some elm, fir, cedar and pine. In the eastern part there yet remains a considerable growth of spruce and hem- lock, but it is rapidly being cut off for lum- ber. Sugar-maples are to be found in all parts of the town, producing quite as abundantly of sugar as in any other part of New England.
the year. It has not been utilized to any large extent, however, hence the town is not noted for its manufacturing interests. Molly's Falls, on Molly's brook, about a mile from the village, in a distance of 30 rods the water falls between 200 and 300 feet in a series of beautiful cascades. During high water the roar of these falls can be heard for several miles. A good view of these falls can be obtained from the road leading to Cabot. There is also a very pretty cascade on Nigger-head brook, about a third of a mile south of the village, where it is crossed by the road leading to the depot. The town has only one village, which is situated on the Winooski river, about a mile from the Cabot line. The Montpelier & Wells River R. R. crosses the town, running nearly parallel with the river from Plain- field until within a mile of the village, when it makes.almost a right angle to the east, passing Nigger-head pond,and thread- ing its way through a notch in the moun- tains to the Connecticut river. The Marsh- field station on this road is one mile from the village, and 15 miles from Montpelier.
It is not known what white men first visited the town's location. This town- ship was purchased of the Stockbridge Indians, (see Mrs. Pitkin's paper,) but it is not certain whether these Indians ever occupied this territory. At the time of the purchase by Mr. Marsh, they were resi- dents of New Stockbridge, Montgomery Co., N. Y.
When the first settlers picked their dwelling-places, Mr. Pitkin settled upon the river near the place where Bowman P. Martin now resides ; Messrs. Dodge and Spencer settled further south and west on the higher land. Here was the birth-place of the first child born in town, a son to Mr. and Mrs. Ebenezer Dodge, Sept. 17, 1794, the place of his birth about a mile north of Plainfield village; the place is still owned by descendants of the Dodge family.
The first "burying-ground " was pur- chased by, and for the use of the town. The first interment therein that has a stone

T of Joshua and Ruth Pitkin, died January 9. 1800. Stephen Pitkin, Jr., donated the land for the village cemetery, and the first interment in it was his adopted daughter, Eunice Sweeny.
There have been five church organiza- tions in town. At present there are but three, as the Christian, and Calvinistic Baptist have become extinct. There have been 11 school districts in town. The pres- ent number is 10, each of which has a school of from 20 to 30 weeks per year. The school in village district has two de- partments, but employs two icachers only during the winter term, as a rule. The town has no academy, but competent teachers hold select school at frequent intervals, affording educational facilities for those wishing to remain in town. And the seminaries at Montpelier and Barre, as well as academies in the vicinity, have drawn a considerable number of students from this town. There are but two per- sons, however, from this town who have received a full collegiate education. Rev. Marcus M. Carleton, missionary in India, and P'rof. Curtis C. Gove, Principal of High School at Westport, N. Y.
The principal business of the town has been, and still is, farming. At present there is but little manufacturing being done. There is i boot-shop for making men's thick boots and overshoes, 2 harness-shops. 1 tin-shop, 1 photograph saloon, 2 cooper- shops, where are manufactured butter and sugar-tubs, and sap-buckets. Six saw. mills, one clap board and three shingle mills. Two of the saw-mills are run by steam ; the rest by water-power; one cheese factory, and i starch factory. There Is 1 blacksmith shop, 2 wheelwright shops, and 3 carpenter-shops, There is a hotel, and a patent medicine laboratory- There are 3 stores, and 3 churches The town cannot boast of a lawyer. It has 3 doctors, Asa Phelps and George_M, Town, allo- pathic ; J. Q. A. l'acker, homeopathic.
The town representatives from 1870 to 1879 have been! Moody Bemis, George A. Putnam, L. W. Pitkin, D. M. Perkins.
The population in 1 10. was 1.15G. In -
1,072. The decrease which the census of 1870 shows, is doubtless owing to the abandonment of some of the smaller and most unproductive farms, and the Western emigration of many of the younger men.
LEWIS BEMIS.
There are a few pensioners of the war of 1812 yet living. One of the soldiers of this war, Lewis Bemis, enlisted at Barnet in 1808. His son, Daniel H. Bemis, of Lancaster, Mass., writes of him : "He enlisted at Barnet in 1808, and served 5 years in the 4th Reg't. of Regular U. S. Infantry. He was with Harrison in his march through the wilds of Ohio in pur- suit of the Indians, and was in the battle of Tippecanoe, when over half of the men in his company were killed or wounded. The man on either side was killed, and he was slightly wounded in the face by a rifle ball. He was in 11 battles and 13 skir- mishes with the Indians. He used to re- late to his children the story of the sol- diers' sufferings while on their march to join Hull, and through Ohio; how their thirst was so intense, that when they reached Lake Erie, in spite of their offi- cers, large numbers threw themselves on the beach, and drank until they died from the effects of it. He was under Hull when he surrendered at Malden, near Detroit. and was a prisoner 26 weeks, during which time he suffered greatly, both for want of water and decent food. Their bread, he used to say, bore the markon the package in which it was enclosed, 1804. He was paroled, and went from Halifax to Boston, where he arrived a few days before the term of his enlistment expired. He soon after enlisted again in a Company of Light Artillery, with which he went up and joined Gen. Macomb's army the day before the battle of Plattsburg. A part of the bat- fery was stationed at the bridge.head at Platsburg, and the remainder sent to Bur - lington, to prevent the British from land- ing and destroying that place. He was with that portion of the battery sent to Burlington, and so did not have any active part In the battle ; but assisted in burying

buried the British dead after the engage- ment. He was discharged after peace was ratified, having served in all about 6 years and 6 months ; 5 years under the first enlistment in the 4th Infantry, and 18 months in the Light Battery. He died in 1855, at Clinton, Mass., where he is buried, aged 73."
IRA SMITH. .
BY REV. GEORGE E. FORBES.
He was the son of Joshua and Keturah Smith ; . was born in Woodstock, Conn., Jan. 22, 1800. At II years, he came with his parents to Marshfield. They moved on to the farm now owned and occupied by J. E. Eddy. During his minority, Ira worked on the farm summers and attended school winters until he was 18. The school- house then stood near the present resi- dence of Webster Haskins. Soon after there was a school-house erected where the village now stands, in which he taught the first school. He was paid in grain, to the value of $12 per month, boarding him- self. In 1821, he purchased 300 acres of wild land lying around the present site of the Marshfield depot, which he cleared, and cultivated 15 acres, spending a part of his time there, and the balance in working out, until he was 29, when, Jan. 4, 1829, he was married to Hannah Jacobs, and they settled at first on his cleared land, but a short time after, as he purchased, and they removed to, the home of his parents, where they lived 11 years. For about 4 years after selling the home farm, he rented different places, but in 1844, pur- chased a farm on which the remainder of his life was spent. He died Sept. 18, 1880, leaving a widow, one son, Orrin, who lives on the homestead, and two daughters, now Mrs. Levi Benton, of Marshfield, and Mrs. C. H. Newton, of Montpelier. One son died in the army, and a daughter married E. B. Dwinell, but died a few years after, and 4 children died quite young. Mr. Smith held many of the town offices, being regarded by the citizens as a man of worth and integrity. He represented the town in the Legislature during 1844-5. In pol- itics he was a Democrat, and never failed by his vote to express his faith in the doc- | His age was SI years. "Though dead, he
trines of his party. His last public act was to rise from the sick bed to which he had been confined for several days, and go to the polls to deposit his ballot for the several State officers. He believed in the vital principles of religion, but in accord- ance with the general character of the man, his faith found expression in deeds rather than in word. In religious sym- pathy he was a Universalist, and gave his influence and means to promote the inter- ests of that society in town. His morals were always above reproach. He was temperate in deed and in word; drank no intoxicating liquors, no tea or coffee, and never used tobacco in any form ; was fru- gal and industrious, and consequently was enabled to acquire a good property, while generously responding to many calls for the promotion of educational and benev- olent enterprises.
He possessed an indomitable will and wonderful endurance from the time that he hired out as a laborer, at 9 years of age, until he abandoned active toil, a short time before his death. He met all duties with a manly spirit, and evinced his willing- ness to obey the primal law of life --- labor. He had a remarkably strong constitution, and when his " golden wedding " was cel- ebrated in 1879, he seemed nearly as hale and hearty as a man of 60 years, though even then there were premonitory symp- toms of the disease which caused his death. For nearly 2 years he suffered from a cancer on the lower lip, and during the latter half of this time, especially, did he endure extreme pain and inconvenience in taking food. But under all these trials he exhibited great fortitude, and died re- signed to his Maker's will. His funeral was attended by a large concourse of cit- izens besides the numerous relatives, thus testifying of the esteem in which he was held by the entire community. The fun- eral services were brief ; no formal eulogy was pronounced ; his life had preached its sermon, and with a few words of comfort to the bereaved ones, the last sad rites were ended, and the body of this worthy man was borne to its final resting-place.

UNIVERSALIST CHURCH. CONTINUED. · The Rev. Geo. E. Forbes continued as pastor until May, ISSo. For t year suc- ceeding this date the church had only oc- casional preaching services, and during this time its numbers were diminished by the death of two members. In May. ISSI, the Rev.
