  • Mt. Pleasant Cemetery Quest: Who Were Some Early Pioneers and Innovators in St
    Mt. Pleasant Cemetery Quest: Who were some early pioneers and innovators in St. Johnsbury? Created in collaboration with St. Johnsbury School Summer Program students, July, 2016 Opened in 1853, Welcome to Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. Earlier graves were moved to this spot When land to build the new Courthouse was sought. At the Chapel, we begin our quest; Take the uppermost road to the west. Walk just past the Celtic Cross; Continue north, and you won’t get lost. LooK to the left toward the iron fence To find this man of prominence. Lambert PacKard is his name; Architecture was his claim to fame. (1) Lambert Packard (1832-1906) was an architect. In 1866 he was employed as a foreman with E. & T. Fairbanks Co., and soon became the company architect. Packard designed most of St. Johnsbury’s major buildings, including the Fairbanks Museum and North Church. From PacKard left, you should turn; Then toward the fence you will worm. Outspread wings top this tall stone; Here rests our Founder, as he is known. (2) Jonathan Arnold (1741-1793) founded the town of St. Johnsbury, clearing seven acres of forest on St. Johnsbury Plain with five others in 1787. He built the first framed house at the head of the Plain, and set up a sawmill at Arnold Falls, just a short distance from his homesite. He was a physician and statesman. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and served in the Revolutionary War as a surgeon. Go bacK to the road and continue to snoop; Turn north and saunter ‘round the loop.

SEYMOUR BASSETT Cornelius Peter Van Ness was a colorful and vigorous leader in a formative period of Vermont history, hut he has remained in the dusk of that history. In this paper Mr. Bassett has sought to recall __ mm and IUs activities and through him throw definite light on h4s ---------­ eventfultime.l.- -In--this--study Van--N-esr--ir-brought;-w--rlre-dt:a.mot~ months of his attempt in the senatorial election of I826 to succeed Horatio Seymour. 'Ulhen Mr. Bassett has completed his research into thot phase of the career of Van Ness, we hope to present the re­ sults in another paper. Further comment will he found in the Post­ script. Editor. NDIVIDUALISM is the boasted virtue of Vermonters. If they I are right in their boast, biographies of typical Vermonters should re­ veal what individualism has produced. Governor Van Ness was a typical Vermonter of the late nineteenth century, but out of harmony with the Vermont spirit of his day. This essay sketches his meteoric career in administrative, legislative and judicial office, and his control of Vermont federal and state patronage for a decade up to the turning point of his career, the senatorial campaign of 1826.1 His family had come to N ew York in the seventeenth century. 2 His father was by trade a wheelwright, strong-willed, with little book-learning. A Revolutionary colonel and a county judge, his purchase of Lindenwald, an estate at Kinderhook, twenty miles down the Hudson from Albany, marked his social and pecuniary success.s Cornelius was born at Lindenwald on January 26, 1782.

  • The Joseph Smith Memorial Monument and Royalton's
    The Joseph Smith Memorial Monument and Royalton’s “Mormon Affair”: Religion, Community, Memory, and Politics in Progressive Vermont In a state with a history of ambivalence toward outsiders, the story of the Mormon monument’s mediation in the local rivalry between Royalton and South Royalton is ultimately a story about transformation, religion, community, memory, and politics. Along the way— and in this case entangled with the Mormon monument—a generation reshaped town affairs. By Keith A. Erekson n December 23, 1905, over fifty members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) gathered to Odedicate a monument to their church’s founder, Joseph Smith, near the site of his birth on a hill in the White River Valley. Dur- ing the previous six months, the monument’s designer and project man- agers had marshaled the vast resources of Vermont’s granite industry to quarry and polish half a dozen granite blocks and transport them by rail and horse power; they surmounted all odds by shoring up sagging .....................

Since 1905, Vermont histories and travel litera- ture, when they have acknowledged the monument’s presence, have generally referred to it as a remarkable engineering feat representative of the state’s prized granite industry.1 What these accounts have omitted is any indication of the monument’s impact upon the local community in which it was erected.

Windsor, Vt., July 7, 1927. ---- WILLIAM CZAR BRADLEY The w·e stminster massacre occurred March 13, 1775. ltJesulted in the end of colonial rule and the sway of the King in Vermont . In December, 1778, the-first Vermont court was held at Bennington. This court was organized under the constit utional authority which had its inception here 150 years ago. In May, 1779, the second session of the court was held at Westminster. It was l].eld in tl].e court house built under the authority of the King in 1772 and moistened by the blood of William French and Daniel Houghton, the first martyrs of the Revolution. Th ~ Judges were Moses Robinson, Chief, and John Fassett, Jr., and Thomas Chandler Jr. Esquires. It was a jury session and 36 respondents were in jail awaiting trial. They were among the foremost citizens of the county of Cumberland and their plight was due to their having taken sides with New York. Their offence was that they had taken by force from William MeWain, an officer of Vermont, t wo co·ws which he had seized and offered to sell as the property of one Clay and another Williams, in default of their refus­ ing to serve in the State militia. It was a ury session and the purpose of the State was to try speedily, and without failure to convict, the accused.

  • Smuggling Into Canada: How the Champlain Valley Defied Jefferson's Embargo
    Wimer 1970 VOL. XXXVIII No. I VERMONT History The 'PROCEEDINGS of the VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY Smuggling into Canada; How the Champlain Valley Defied Jefferson's Embargo by H. N. MULLER HEN Britain resumed open hostilities against France in 1803, the W relative tranquillity of Anglo-American relations was among the first casualties. By 1805, after Napoleon's success at AusterlilZ and Nel­ son's decisive victory at Trafalgar, the contest became a stalemate. With the French dominating the Continent and the British the sea, neither side could afford to observe the amenities of neutral rights. Britain took steps to close the loop-holes by which American merchantmen evaded the notorious orders-in-eouncil. and her navy renewed in earnest its harassing and degrading practice of impressing American citizens. III feeling and tension mounted as Anglo-American relations disinte­ grated. Then in late June 1807 tbe British frigate uopard fired on the United States Frigate Chesapeake, killing three American seamen and wounding eighteen others, and a party from the Leopard boarded the American warship and removed four alleged British deserters. The Chesapeake affair precipitated an ugly crisis. Americans, now more united in hostility toward Britain than at any time since the Revolution, demanded action from their government.l President Thomas Jefferson responded with the Embargo Act, hastily pushed through a special session of Congress and signed in December 1807. Jefferson held the illusory hope that by withholding its produce and its merchant marine, tbe United States would forcc Britain and c"en I. Burl. Th~ Uniud S/a'~.
