K 181& (_ ". • . r . .'> PKEFACE The 19th of October is an important date in the history of the First Corps of Cadets. On that day the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Foundation of the Corps was celebrated by laying the corner-stone of an Armory designed to be the permanent home of the organization. The simple ceremony with which this act was performed, a description of the other events of the day, and lists of the members who took part in them, are here set forth with the purpose of making this pamphlet an interesting remembrance to those who participated, and a record of historical value to those who may come after us. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY, FIRST CORPS CADETS, M. V. M. TEE MILITARY SZ2 7i:J3 INSTITUTION, GdVmii:! S '- I 18 . FIEST CORPS CADETS, M.V. M. On the 19th of October, 1891, the First Corps of Cadets celebrated the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of its Foundation. During the sum mer, arrangements were completed to have a part of the foundation walls of the Armory built before the anniversary date. Action to prepare for the celebration was formally taken early in September, as will be seen by the following General Order (No. 19) : — General Orders) HEADQUARTERS 1st CORPS CADETS, V MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER MILITIA, No- 19- > Boston, September 3, 1891. I . A regular meeting of the Corps will be held in the Armory at 8 o'clock on Tuesday evening, September 8th. II . At this meeting . action will be taken to prepare for a fitting celebration of the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the foun dation of the Corps on the 19th of October. By order of LIEUT. -COLONEL EDMANDS. J. E. R. HILL, Adjutant. 8 FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. At the meeting of the Corps held in accordance with General Order No. 19, the Commanding Officer announced that sufficient funds were now available to warrant the Trustees in beginning work upon the foundations of the Armory, and that the laying of the corner-stone with appropriate ceremonies should be a part of the celebration of October 19th. The following Committee was therefore appointed to make arrangements for this celebration : Major George R. Rogers, from the Field and Staff; Sergeant Herbert C. Wells, from Company "A"; Corporal Henry D. Warren, from Company " C"; Private Edward E. Currier, from Company "B"; Private Donald E. White, from Company " D." At this meeting the Commanding Officer also appointed Surgeon William L. Richardson, Adju tant J. E. R. Hill, and Private Donald E. White a Committee to collect appropriate historical material to be placed in a box and deposited in the corner-stone. The Committee of Arrangements immediately held meetings, and issued the following circular, which was sent to the Active, Honorary, and Fine Members, and members of the Veteran Association : — FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. ARMORY 1st CORPS CADETS, MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER MILITIA, Boston, September 23, 1891. Dear Sir : The Committee having the matter in charge have prepared the fol lowing sketch of a programme (subject to future change) for the cele bration of the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Foundation of the Corps on October 19, 1891 : A short street parade by the active members, the laying of the corner-stone of the new Armory by the Governor of the Commonwealth with appropriate ceremonies, a review on the Common, and a banquet in the evening at the Parker House. It is hoped that as many as possible of the Active, Honorary, and Fine Members of the Corps and members of the Veteran Association will be able to attend these ceremonies and the banquet. The price of the ticket for the banquet will not exceed $3.50. The Committee, being anxious to have some approximate idea of the number that will be present at the banquet, would consider it a favor to them if you could let them know at once whether you think that you will be able to attend. Kindly reply on the enclosed card. You will receive particulars later. Committee on Celebration : GEORGE R. ROGERS. HERBERT C. WELLS. HENRY D. WARREN. EDWARD E. CURRIER. DONALD E. WHITE. 10 FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. It was decided to invite to the Banquet, as guests of the Corps, His Excellency the Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and Staff, all the living ex-Governors, and the officers of the Second Corps of Cadets, M.V. M. The following General Order (No. 21) shows the final results of the work of the Committee : — General Orders / HEADQUARTERS 1st CORPS CADETS, > MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER MILITIA, No- 21- ) Boston, October 6, 1891. I . On the 19th day of October the Corps will celebrate the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of its Foundation. In the afternoon there will be a parade, a review by the Commander-in-Chief on Boston Common, the corner-stone of the permanent Armory will be laid, and there will be a dinner at the Parker House in the evening. The Veteran Association, the Honorary Members, and many past members and Fine Members are expected to join in the celebration, which will be one of the most interesting occasions in the history of the Corps. II . Tickets to the enclosure for the review will be sent to all classes of members, those for the active members to be issued through the company commanders, who will also have the disposition of dinner tickets for their companies, each ticket (price $3.50) to be paid for on delivery previous to the dinner. The dinner tickets for other classes of members will be disposed of by the Committee on the Celebration, of which Major Rogers is chairman. Ill . A committee of which the Surgeon is chairman, will attend to the collection of documents and articles to be placed in a box to be deposited in the corner-stone. VIII . Further orders relating to assembly and other matters on the 19th instant will be issued in due season. By order of LIEUT.-COLONEL EDMANDS. J. E. R. HILL, Adjutant. FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. 11 Meanwhile the Veteran Association caused the following circulars to be issued: — 1741 1891 Boston, September 17, 1891. Dear Sir : It is proposed that the Veteran Association parade on the 19th of October next with the Active Corps, to assist in laying the corner-stone of the new Armory. A meeting to take action upon this matter will be held at the Cadet Armory on Thursday, the 24th inst., at 8 p.m. It is extremely desirable to have a full attendance, to manifest the interest of the Veterans in the well-being of their old Corps. Per order S. M. WELD, President. HENRY W. GORE, Secretary. 12 FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. 1741 1891 Boston, September 25, 1891. Dear Sir : At a meeting of the Veteran Association at the Cadet Armory last evening, it was voted to parade on Monday, October 19th next, with the Active Corps, to celebrate the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Corps, and to assist in laying the corner-stone of the new Armory, provided the organization can be represented by at least fifty members. The march will be short, and the dress dark clothes, black hats, and white gloves, the services to commence at 2 o'clock p.m. Please respond on the enclosed postal card at once, if you will parade, that the Committee may complete arrangements. Per order S. M. WELD, President. HENRY W. GORE, Secretary. The Committee having in charge the selection of historical material to be placed in the box for the corner-stone had collected a number of articles and documents relating to the past history and FIRST CORPS CADETS, M.V.M. 13 present condition of the Corps, a full list of which will be found in Appendix vm. Enough of the foundation wall was built to allow the corner-stone to be placed in position on the 19th of October. General Orders) HEADQUARTERS 1st CORPS CADETS, > MA8SACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER MILITIA, No- 22- 1 Boston, October 12, 1891. I . The Corps will assemble at the Armory in full uniform on Monday, October 19th, at 2.30 o'clock p.m., to celebrate the One Hun dred and Fiftieth Anniversary of its Foundation. Honorary Members and Fine Members eligible to parade, who have uniforms, are invited to join the ranks, falling in with their old companies. Many members of the Veteran Association and past members, who have signified their intention to parade, will also turn out in a body accompanied by the Salem Cadet Band ; and as the capacity of the Armory for this double formation will be severely tested, there must be no delay in assembling promptly at the hour above named, which has been made as late as possible in order to accommodate members having business engagements. II . The column will march through several of the principal streets of the city, receive His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief at the State House, and escort him to the Common, where he will review the Corps, after which the column will proceed to the Armory to witness the laying of the corner-stone of the new Armory.

  • Historical Chronology of Newport, N.H
    HISTORICAL CHRONOLOGY OF NEWPORT, N.H. ---------- You may simply scroll through the pages for the fun of it, if you like, poking along to see what emerges, or to satisfy your general interest in history. But if you seek some particular date to see what happened then, or if you want to know when the town acquired the Common, or when the Newport House burned or when the Newport Opera House Association was formed, or what a factory worker earned in 1910, then use the Search or Find function of your software. Explanation: History is not bunk, despite Henry Ford's belief that it is. Nor is it -- at least not always -- events agreed upon by the victors, as some cynics have said. Ambrose Bierce in his Devil's Dictionary calls it "an account mostly false, of events mostly unimportant, which are brought about by rulers mostly knaves, and soldiers mostly fools." Little wonder that he disappeared without trace and was never found. History is understanding the past, attempting to apply it to the present, and hoping that such understanding will keep us from repeating the errors -- and sometimes the disasters -- of the past as we work to shape the future. The chronology below is not history. The American historian Daniel Boorstin calls history The Cautionary Science and quotes William James: "A large acquaintance with particulars often makes us wiser than the possession of abstract formulas, however deep." The historian Will Durant says: "Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record; while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues.
