EDUCATIONAL.

In early days, the children in this part of De- catur attended school just across the line in Rock county. But in 1857 school district No. 6, now the Independant district of Brodhead, was organized, and at the first election, held August 15, of said year, E. A. West was elected director; J. T. Sherman, treasurer, and A. Hitchcock, clerk of the district. A room was rented and a school taught. The district needed a new school house, but the people could not agree upon the cost of the building or loca- tion. But in 1859 they purchased a building (now the Catholic church) and arranged it into three departments. They afterwards also built a small school house, on block 149, which is now

818

HISTORY OF GREEN COUNTY.

used as a primary department. But the leading citizens were anxious to possess better school facilities, and thus at school meetings would pass resolutions to that effect, but as a general thing the same would be rescinded at the next meeting.

Oct. 20, 1866, the citizens of Brodhead met at the Central school house, for the purpose of organizing a corporation for the purpose of building an academy. It was agreed that the capital stock should be $20,000, divided into shares of $50 each. I. F. Mack was elected president; E. D. Clinton, vice-president; C. W. Mitchell, secretary, and H. B. Stewart, treas- urer. Several thousand dollars was subscribed towards this enterprise, when, in accordance with the advice of Hon. John M. Mynn, super- intendent of schools, the scheme was abandoned, and an application made to the legislature of the State of Wisconsin for a special charter for the organization of a school district in Brod- head, and provide for the establishment of a high school therein, in connection with primary schools, all to be sustained by tax, and made free. The charter was granted March 27, 1867, and Brodhead became an Independant district.

The first school commissioners elected were: H. B. Stewart, R. Morris, L. Lakin, R. H. Rugg, L. E. Towne and T. J. Balis. Steps were im- mediately taken to build a school house. The district was bonded to the amount of $6,000, and the present school building, located on block 83, was completed in 1868. This building is a brick structure, 50x70 feet in size, three stories high and cost, including furniture, about $15,000. The school is divided into six departments, con- sisting of high school, intermediate and pri- mary and employs seven teachers. The schools are well graded.

Prof. O. N. Wagley, principal of Brodhead graded and high school, was born in the town of Plymouth, Rock Co., Wis., in 1849. His father, N. O. Wagley, settled in Rock county in 1841. He attended the State University at Madison, three terms, and began teaching in

1871. In the fall of 1873, he entered the State Normal School, at Whitewater, in this State, graduating in 1878. He taught three years at Necedah, Juneau county, and came here in the fall of 1881.

The other teachers in 1884 were: Elsie Sauls- bury, assistant in high school; and in the higher grammar department, Maria Fenton; lower grammar department, E. Rockwood; higher intermediate department, Addie M. Bowen; lower intermediate department, Lillian Hol- colmb; higher primary department, Bertie Sprague; lower primary department, Addie Hlinkley; south side primary, Lucy Kingman.

RELIGIOUS MATTERS.

The religious organizations of Brodhead are the Congregational, Methodist Episcopal, Pres- byterian, Baptist, Advent, Catholic and Episco- pal.

CONGREGATIONAL.

The first services of this denomination were held by Rev. James Jamison, at the house of Henry Clinton, in the summer of 1856. The Church was organized by the same minister on the 28th of February, 1857, services being held in the dining hall of the Clinton Hotel. The society was designated the "First Congrega- tional Church of Brodhead." The first members were as follows: E. D. Clinton, Amanda Clin- ton, James T. Sherman, Abby T. Sherman, John 1 .. McNair, Caroline P. McNair, J. W. Thayer, Anna E Thayer, John C. Wingate, Eliza Win- gate, Milo L. Burnham, Ellen D. Burnham, Ich- abod Dimick, Catharine Dimick, George Frary, Harriet Frary, Martha Love, Mary J. Wingate, Nancy Foster, Harriet M. Foster, Martha A. Sherman, Ella II. Clinton, Electa Sexton, Fri- phena Taft, I. F. Mack, Frances D. Mack and Charles M. Griswold. The first officers were: Deacons, E. D. Clinton, I. W. Thayer and John (. Wingate; clerk, I. F. Mack; treasurer, John L. MeNair; trustees, I. W. Thayer, R. E. Taft, M. L. Burnham, E. C. Clinton, H. P. Clinton and R. Love. Services were held at the Clin- ton House until the erection of the school house,

which was then used by the society as a place of worship until 1861 when the church edifice was built. It is a neat frame building, 36x60 feet in size, with a seating capacity of about 300, and cost about $2,000. It was dedicated Dec. 17, 1861. The Rev. James Jamison, who organized the Church, was a missionary. The first pastor was Rev. Hiram Foote, who came in October, 1858, and remained one year. In September, 1859, Rev. W. Cochran became pas- tor, remaining until succeeded by Rev. James Strong, in October, 1862. He remained two years and was followed by Rev. Ottman, who only staid a few months. After this the Church was without a pastor until the fall of 1865, when Rev. William Bernard was called to the pastoral charge, and remained one year. Then came Rev. Edward Morris. In the fall of 1868 Rev. D. W. Webb took charge, and remained until the fall of 1870. In April, 1871, Rev. Hiram Foote became pastor and served for four years. In the fall of 1875 the Congregational and Presbyterian Churches united for worship. Rev. Edward Dickinson, a Presbyterian clergy- man, preached for both societies for three years, services being held at the different churches alternately. After this time there was no pas- tor until the spring of 1879, when Rev. Wallace Bruce accepted a call, and remained one year. He was followed by Rev. William Cutler, who staid one year. In July, 1881, Rev. H. S. San- ford took pastoral charge and remained until the time of his death in July, 1882. In 1883, Rev. Francis Wrigley became pastor, and is still in charge. The present membership of the Church is thirty-eight, only five of whom are males, thirty-three being women. In 1884 the deacons were: E. D. Clinton, C. Matter, George Frary and J. T. Sherman. The trustees are E. D. Clinton, Deacon Matter, George Spaulding and Edwin Charlton. A Sabbath school has always been sustained, and is now in good condition.

ADVENT CHRISTIAN CHURCH.

Elder N. A. Hitchcock was the first preacher of this denomination to hold services in and

near Brodhead. In August, 1867, Rev. Joshua V. Hines, assisted by William Sheldon, held a very successful tent meeting, when it was found that a goodly number of people had formerly, while in the east, held these views and a Church was organized. There where twenty-six mem- bers, and the following were the officers: Elders, H. T. Moore and II. Crosby; secretary, H. Kimberley. The following, short, yet com- prehensive creed was adopted: "The Bible, as it reads (literally); one, only, rule of faith, and practice and Christian character; one, only, test of fellowship." Rev. William Sheldon settled here, later, and preached for the society. Elder George Thompson, of Monroe, was the first regular pastor. Elder Isaac Adrian, who was a gifted man, was the next. In 1869 the next meetings of note were held-a general Advent conference being held in the Congrega- tional church, at which were present many emi- nent men from several States. A four days discussion was held between Miles Grant, of Boston, and Rev. Mr. Crawford, a Universalist minister of Brodhead. In 1873 Elder Samuel Thurber held a successful series of revival meetings, eighty persons professing. Elders Preston, Hitchcock, Godfrey, Howard, Wilbur, Warner, Bennett, Button, Phelps and others supplied the pulpit at different times; but the Church declined until November, 1880, when Elder D. S. Clark, of Amboy, III., held meet- ings for eighty consecutive evenings with excel- lent results, and the Church was rescued from oblivion. Elder Clark was pastor for nearly a year. In November, 1881, Elder George M. Button became pastor on trial of six months, and his services have been so satisfactory that he still retains the position. Under his work the interest is healthy and good. The society have rented the Baptist building, one of the finest church edifices in Brodhead. The Church now numbers thirty-five members.

Rev. George M. Button, the pastor of this Church, was born near Juda, Wis., and was reared on a farm one mile south of "old Deca-

tur," and two miles west of Brodhead. His father was H. W. Button. When seventeen years of age he ran away from home and went to Marquette, Mich., but returned in three months and attended the academy in Brodhead three years; the Milton College one year, and the State University one year. Being, as he believed, called to preach, and being counselled and encouraged by Senator H. T. Moore, he commenced his life work near Baraboo, Sauk county, before twenty-one years of age. Later for four years he preached on a circuit in Illi- nois. In May, 1878, he married Abbie Lee Watson, of De Kalb, Ill. After this for two years he was pastor of a Church at Afton, Ill. He then went to Turner Co., Dak., for his health, and upon his return, became pastor of the Church at Brodhead.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL.

The first class of this denomination was or- ganized in June, 1856. Nathaniel Wheeler was the preacher in charge and William Teal, as- sistant. The class consisted of eleven members, among whom were: F. Van Curen, Timothy Lewis, Eleanor Lewis, F. Nash, Eliza Nash, B. F. Stevens, Norah Stevens, Sarah Lewis and Almon Lewis, the latter being a local preacher. In 1857 the charge was supplied by Almon Lewis, who still resides here. In 1858 Rev. Henry Coleman, then connected with the seminary at Evansville, was placed in charge, but not being able to close his connec- tion with the school immediately, John L. Williams, a superannuated preacher, sup- plied this place for a few months. In the fall of 1858 J. P. Dixon, of Janesville, donated to the society two lots, on which the present church was erected. This church edi- fice was finished and paid for in three months. It cost $2,300. It was dedicated by the Rev. Hooper Crews. A Meneeley bell, weighing 795 pounds, which cost $400, was donated by Edward H. Brodhead, of Milwaukee, on the condition that it should be used only in Brodhead. This class was organized and meetings were held at

the county line school house, just across the line in Rock county. Afterward services were held in Brodhead in a hall on Center street, northeast of the present church, which has now been removed. Sometime previous to the erec- tion of the M. E. church, parties in the interest of the Congregational Church made a move to- ward building, and a subscription of several thousand dollars was raised, but through a slight difference among the heaviest subscrib- ers, the enterprise was abandoned. It was at this time that Mr. Brodhead promised a bell to the first church that should be erected in the vil- lage, and the Methodists were successful. Rev. D. H. Budlong was appointed to this charge in the spring of 1859; but during the succeeding winter his health failed and his place was sup- plied by Jacob Miller, of Cadiz. In 1860 Rev. Nelson Butler became pastor, and in 1861 was succeeded by W. HI. Wilson. He was returned in 1862. Soon after, however, the presiding elder placed Rev. A. Callender in charge and removed Mr. Wilson to Madison. In 1863 L. W. Pike appears on the minutes as pastor, but it seems he failed to come, and E. B. Russell, then either a local or a superannuated preacher, was sent as a supply and filled out the year. In 1864 Rev. II. Chadeayne was appointed to this charge. During this year the parsonage was built at a cost of about $1,200. In 1866 Wil- liam J. Wilson became pastor and remained two years, when he was succeeded by Rev. Aspin- wall, who remained three years. In 1871 Rev. W. HI. Kellogg became pastor and remained two years. After this in succession came: Rev. T. M. Fullerton, three years; Rev. Joseph D. Brothers, three years; Rev. John Knipps, one year; Rev. J. E. Irish, one year; Rev. Whitney, eight months; J. I. Mclaughlin, four months; and Rev. G. W. Nuzem was appointed to this charge in September, 1882, and is the present pastor. During the summer, 1874, two side parlors, each twenty feet square, were added to the church, and other improvements were made costing all together $1,100. The Church num-

821

bers considerable over 100 members, and both Church and Sunday school are in good condi- tion.

EPISCOPAL.

The first Episcopal services in this town were held at the house of Mr. Kettle, in the winter of 1848-9, by Rev. Mr. Humphrey, of Beloit. There were but few here belonging to this de- nomination at that time. Services were held at Decatur until after Brodhead was started. Among the earliest Episcopalians were the Ket- tle family, Mr. Bridgeman and M. B. Edson. Occasional services were held until 1875, when they secured a resident clergyman in the person of Rev. Ross, who resided here for several years, services being held in the halls of the village. The society was organized in 1875. The Church now hold occasional services and support a good Sunday school. They have no church building.

PRESBYTERIAN.

The Presbyterian church at Brodhead was built in 1866. It is a brick building and cost about $6,000. The first services in the building were held Jan. 20, 1867. The building was dedi- cated Feb. 21, 1867, by Rev. J. W. Dinsmore. The first pastor was Rev. A. R. Day, who was here when the church was erected. He was succeeded by A. A. Joss, and then in turn came Revs. R. G. Thompson, S. I. MeKee, A. R. Day, E. Dickinson and J. S. Bingham. In 1884 the Church was without a pastor. The first Presbyterian services held in this town were held at the village of Decatur, in 1849 or 1850, by Rev. Fox. He was a resident of Oregon, Dane county, who preached only occasionally and he effected an organization of this Church at Decatur. The first resident pastor was Rev. Frazer, who preached for abont three years. Others who preached at Decatur were Rev. Bachns, Dr. Nichols and Rev. Bas- com. The first elders were Alexander Clark, William Oliver and Mr. Kirkpatrick. Origi- nally there were about twenty members; it after- ward increased to fifty. When Decatur died,

the Baptist and Presbyterian Churches like the rest of the village moved to Brodhead.

CATHOLIC.

The first services of the Catholic denomina- tion were held in 1857 by a priest whose name has been forgotten, for the benefit of the rail- road employes. Rev. Conroy was the second priest. Rev. Richard Sullivan, then of Monroe, came here occasionally in 1859 and 1860 The first services were held at private houses. Rev. James J. Kinsella, now at Shullsburg, was the first resident pastor, and remained here about three years, leaving in 1863. He was here when the church and parsonage were erected. The pastors in succession have been : Revs. J. J. Kinsella, N. Stehlehan, M. Wrynn and James Hegerty. Father Hegerty, the present pastor, came here in 1880. He is also pastor of churches at Footville and Albany. The catholic Church building was formerly the public school build- ing of Brodhead. It was purchased by this society in 1867, and converted into a church.

BAPTIST.

The Baptist Church of Brodhead was organ- ized Feb. 20, 1867, at a meeting held in the Congregational church. Rev. D. Alcott was president of the meeting and B. F. Roderick was clerk. The following is a list of those who became members at that time: Rev. D. Alcott, . Almira Stewart, Julius Hurlburt, Sarah M. Hurlburt, Joshua Nanscawn, F. B.

Services were held in Gomber's hall for some time and in September, 1867, Cole's hall was leased for one year. The church was erected in the fall of 1872. It is a frame building, vaneered with briek, and cost
