    Biographical Sketches WHITE MOUNTAIN BANK OF LANCASTER Officers, Directors, et al. Certain dates may be approximate BEDEL, Hazen • [White Mountain Bank of Lancaster • 1849: Incorporator for original charter] • Hazen Bedel was born in Haverhill on July 31, 1818, son of John Bedel and his second wife.1 When he was a year old he moved with his family north to the Indian Stream Territory, but the privations were so great that his mother and her thee children soon relocated to Haverhill, where Hazen, age five, lived with the Jacob Williams family, with whom he remained until age 10, in the meantime attending school. His father then returned, and the family moved to Bath, where Hazen was schooled for two more years. • Afterward he went to Montpelier, Vermont, and worked for two years at shoe making with his brother Moody. He then came back to Bath and made shoes there for two more years. An uncle in Lancaster then hired him as a clerk in the Sampson & Perkins store, where he remained for three years, at which time the concern failed. Hazen Bedell was placed in charge of winding down the business, which he did with great success. • In 1838, at age 20, he went to Colebrook and secured a position as a clerk for Frederick G. Messer (best known as a hat maker in Lancaster), In four years he gained a third interest as a partner in the business. In October 1844 he entered the merchandising trade on his own account in a building he had erected on Factory Road (later Pleasant St.), where he stayed until 1861, when he relocated in a large building he constructed on Main Street, with the Masonic Hall upstairs.

H. 1930 V^EW HAM<PSHI%E APT. JOHN MASON was the founder of C New Hampshire. He was a merchant and shipmaster, and became a friend of the Duke of Buckingham, himself a royal favorite, and so he prospered, and received favors, appoint­ ments, and lands from the crown. For several years Capt. Mason was governor of Portsmouth, England, and at his house in that city Bucking­ ham was assassinated in 1628. In 1622 Mason received from the Council for New England a grant of all the land between the Naumkeag and Merrimack Rivers, which he proposed to call Mariana. Later in the same year he and Sir Ferdinando Gorges received a grant of all the land between the Merrimack and Kennebec Rivers, extending 60 miles inland, which they called the Province of Maine. In 1629 Mason alone received a grant of the land between the Merrimack and Piscataqua Rivers, and this he called New Hampshire, his home being in Hampshire, England. The territory east of the Piscataqua was assigned to Gorges, and both grantees entered enthusiastically upon plans for settling their new domains. On Nov. 17, 1629, only ten days after the grant of New Hampshire to Capt. Mason, a SOMK THINGS great tract of land covering practically the same coast limits, but extending inland to what is now Lake Champlain, was granted to Mason and Gorges together, and called Laconia. The reason for this grant is not clear.
