The Editor of the Souvenir has had occasion to remark in previous editions that each Legislature has some peculiar characteristic to distinguish it from all others It fell to the lot of the Legislature of 1898, for the first time in over 30 years, or the usuil span of a generation, to make war preparations and to discuss war measures. The breaking out of the war with Spain found our Legislature rjady to do its part promptly and patriotically. With absolute unanimity and no more delay than was necessary for the making of the proper motions and the sig- nature of the bill by Governor Wolcott, the whole transaction occupying less than half an hour, the war appropriation of half a million dollars was voted ; and in the Senate the enactment of the measure was greeted with three cheers. No partisan discussion but patriotic action marked every measure of similar import. But this Souvenir is not intended as a record of what was done.

Winthrop makes no division into chapters. In this edition the text has, for the reader's convenience, been broken by headings repre- senting the years. These, however, in accordance with modern usage, have been set at the beginning of January, not at the date with which Winthrop began his year, the first of March.

  • Champlin Memorial Transcribed
    October 9, 2003 To all Champlin Researchers: This transcription of the Champlin Memorial had its origin in August 1999 as I was beginning to explore that family in my wife's lineage. I discovered the original in the library at the Newport Historical Society. The work is a typescript, bound volume. The narrative is fascinating; the genealogical information is extensive. Its pages are well worn and very fragile. Handwritten annotations are found throughout. As I was working on the arduous task of hand-copying that information, I thought other researchers would benefit by having a copy of the Memorial. Thus began my quest to make the Memorial available to as many people as possible. I did not live near Newport, Rhode Island. Getting to the Historical Society required airplane rides, hotels and the like. But, with perseverance and patience, I was able to complete the transcription shortly after the Champlin Family Reunion of June 2003. The transcription is as accurate to the original as I could make it. It has been proofed to insure the information is here as it is found in the original. Typographical errors, spacing and layout have been copied to the extent possible. The original has several cites to appendices which are not found with the original. Since I did not know the origins of the handwritten notations they have been excluded from the transcription. An addendum of unknown origins has been included here. I set up the transcription to accommodate duplex printing of the pages. If you travel to Newport, please take time to visit the Historical Society and peruse the Memorial.
