The great need was recognized not only for a connected history of the great events th at stand o ut a s land marks I n s the lives o f tho e early pioneers , but for a narrative at an d once readable and entertaining , at the same time inter t esting and instructive , from the very beginning of the whi e ’ t man s appearance in this locality up to the present momen , a history that every family in the entire To wnship including the present Town of Babylon should have one or more a copies o f , in order th t they can thereby , not only trace back their ancestry I U [nose memorabl e days of 1 65 3 but also that they may become familiar with and able to com mun icate to others the true history of the town of which be they have the exalted honor to citizens . o There are of c urse , histories of Long Island , but they deal very largely with individual families and so far as known this is the only history of the Township of Hunting o f i ton , which is course the one in which we are d rectly interested . 6 H I STORY OF TH E ORIGI NAL The period from 1 8 6 1 to 1 9 2 5 has been purposely omit ted , not because those noble heroes who participated in the Civil War , The Spanish American War and the late World War are not worthy o f all the honor we can possibly bestow fo r fo r upon them , they certainly are , but the reason that it would mak e this narrative to o long and too bulky to be n o i corp rated in a volume convenient to handle , and because m every city , town and ha let has its roster of war heroes . An effort h as been made to comply with the original request as to conditions 75 years ago , by listing in all the l p aces in the township including Babylon , Cold Spring , o r Huntington , Melville , Centerp rt , G eenlawn , Northport , o rth o rt n w a d . East N p , Commack Ft Salonga , those who ere and born 75 or more years ago , and who are still living , a second list o f those who have arrived at the go o d old Bible “ ” a e g of three score years and ten , and are now between . 0 a e 7 and 7 5 years , o f g, and it is very certain that those e lists will prov what has often been claimed heretofore , that this is the healthiest section o f the United States . Those lists will be divided into three classes : First : Those born within the j urisdiction o f the original w l To nship of Huntington , and still iving therein . Second : Those born within the j urisdiction o f the original Township o f Huntington and now living outside of that j urisdiction . Third : Those bo rn outside o f the original Township of Huntington , but who are now residing in any of the places heretofore mentioned . It is undoubtedly true that you have to actually live with o pe ple to really find them out , or to thoroughly understand we them , and since cannot live literally with those that blazed the trail of civilization in the new world , the next best way is to consider and study the ordinances and laws c be with which they ircumscri d themselves , for law in all TOWNSH IP OF HU NTI NGTON 7 ages has prescribed the mode of living that at least the maj ority are supposed to abide by in their d a ily walk through li fe . To start with then we must turn time backward in its f o f light to the days the primeval forest , that the Red Man disturbed not except fo r material for his can o es and branches his w o o f for lodges , and through hich the m ccasins so many generations of savages had worn their narrow paths - e or trails until they were often times more than a foot d ep , back to those days when every male w as an archer of almost unerring marksmanship a n d exceedingly dexterous and clever with his spe ar and when deer a n d other wild game were plenti ful on Long Island , when the wealth of our forefathers was measured by produce and the number o f live stock a man possessed , when modern conveniences were e not ven conceived or dreamed of , when it required almost superhuman bravery to push into hitherto unknown terri t lo tory , there to build by means of clumsy ools a gcabin they might call home . In those days their automobile was an o x - cart and cart paths following the old Indian trails their c oncrete high w o ways , while o den plough shares tipped with iron , served t un as their Ford trac or and the old match lock g , the forerunner of the old flint lock served as their magazine rifle . This history will tend to unfold to us a view of the S o f ocial , political , religious and inner li fe our ancestors , n and to our present generation of you g people, many things they done as herein related will seem decidedly queer and out of place in this day and age, and yet it is not only probable but almost certain that our m anner of living and our methods of working and accomplishing things and which we now deem the most wonderful the world has ever known (and indeed they are ) will appear decidedly grotesque and HI STO RY OF TH E ORIGI NAL q ueer and out o f place to our prec o cious posterity of a generation hence , in fact it would not surprise me any , i f s i uch was the case within the next ten or f fteen years . \Vh a t bravery and fortitude w ere displayed by th e women o f that day will never be known , though tribute has be e n and will o f course be paid to them in a general — to way , and while no doubt they o ften times had reason ques tion why some things were done , or why such and such a O move was made , we have no record f any murmuring or o n so complaint their part , it is certain they were then , as ’ so they are now , man s best friend , his guardian angel to speak , and the means whereby the race has continued to n o bilitv ascend to higher planes o f justice , of humanity , o f and of righteousness . It was people of such sturdy traits of character and u n bravery that le ft England for the new world , a world known to them and settling first in New England , then emigrated to Huntington either by boat from Connecticut , or arriving from the west by way of Hempstead or possibly following the Indian trails from the older settlements at S outhold and Southampton .

INTRODUCTION In spite of the utilitarian tendencies of the present age, it is fortunately no longer necessary to argue in behalf of sport; even the busiest of busy Americans have at last learned the neces- sity for a certain amount of relaxation and rec- reation, and that the best way to these lies in the pursuit of some form of outdoor sport. While each has its stanch adherents, who pro- claim its superiority to all others, the sport of yachting can perhaps show as much to its credit as any. As a means to perfect physical development, one great point in all sports, it has the advantage of being followed outdoors in the bracing atmos- phere of the sea; and while it involves severe physical labor and at times actual hardships, it fits its devotees to withstand and enjoy both. In the matter of competition, the salt and savor of all sport, yachting opens a wide and varied field. In cruising there is a constant strife 219316 vi Introduction with the elements, and in racing there is the contest of brain and hand against those of equal adversaries.

    SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES. Monday, October 10, 1910. The court met pursuant to law. Present: Mr. Justice Harlan, Mr. Justice White, Mr. Justice McKenna, Mr. Justice Holmes, Mr. Justice Day, Mr. Justice Lurton, and Mr. Justice Hughes. Mr. Justice Harlan, Presiding Justice, said: "Gentlemen of the Bar: Since the last term the Honorable Charles Evans Hughes has been appointed an associate justice of this court to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Justice Brewer. Mr. Hughes is present and prepared to take the required oath of office. The court extends a most cordial welcome to the new member. The clerk will read his commission and administer the oath." The clerk then read the commission and Mr. Hughes took the oath of office and was escorted by the marshal to his seat on the bench. Mr. Justice Harlan continued: "Gentlemen of the Bar: Since its last session this court has sus- tained a very great loss. The earthly career of the Chief Justice has been closed by death. This sad event occurred on the 4th day of Juty of the present year at his summer residence, after nearly twenty- three years of continuous and distinguished service on this bench. He met the final summons with that calmness of spirit and compo- sure of mind that marked his whole life. From his early manhood he walked in the good way, uprightly before God and his fellow-men, and passed from this life into the life be}T ond the grave in the con- fident belief, I doubt not, that the Maker and Ruler of the Earth ordereth all things aright.

  • Epilogue 1941—Present by BARBARA LA ROCCO
    Epilogue 1941—Present By BARBARA LA ROCCO ABOUT A WEEK before A Maritime History of New York was re- leased the United States entered the Second World War. Between Pearl Harbor and VJ-Day, more than three million troops and over 63 million tons of supplies and materials shipped overseas through the Port. The Port of New York, really eleven ports in one, boasted a devel- oped shoreline of over 650 miles comprising the waterfronts of five boroughs of New York City and seven cities on the New Jersey side. The Port included 600 individual ship anchorages, some 1,800 docks, piers, and wharves of every conceivable size which gave access to over a thousand warehouses, and a complex system of car floats, lighters, rail and bridge networks. Over 575 tugboats worked the Port waters. Port operations employed some 25,000 longshoremen and an additional 400,000 other workers.* Ships of every conceivable type were needed for troop transport and supply carriers. On June 6, 1941, the U.S. Coast Guard seized 84 vessels of foreign registry in American ports under the Ship Requisition Act. To meet the demand for ships large numbers of mass-produced freight- ers and transports, called Liberty ships were constructed by a civilian workforce using pre-fabricated parts and the relatively new technique of welding. The Liberty ship, adapted by New York naval architects Gibbs & Cox from an old British tramp ship, was the largest civilian- 262 EPILOGUE 1941 - PRESENT 263 made war ship.

  • Of the New Jersey Maritime Pi- Lot and Docking Pilot Commission
    156th Annual Report Of The New Jersey Maritime Pi- lot and Docking Pilot Commission Dear Governor and Members of the New Jersey Legislature, In 1789, the First Congress of the United States delegated to the states the authority to regulate pilotage of vessels operating on their respective navigable waters. In 1837, New Jersey enacted legislation establishing the Board of Commissioners of Pilotage of the State of New Jersey. Since its creation the Commission has had the responsibility of licensing and regulating maritime pilots who direct the navigation of ships as they enter and depart the Port of New Jersey and New York. This oversight has contributed to the excellent reputation the ports of New Jersey and New York has and its pilots enjoy throughout the maritime world. New legislation that went into effect on September 1, 2004 enables the Commission to further contribute to the safety and security of the port by requiring the Commission to license docking pilots. These pilots specialize in the docking and undocking of vessels in the port. To reflect the expansion of its jurisdiction the Commission has been renamed “The New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission.” In keeping with the needs of the times, the new legislation has a strong security component. All pilots licensed by the state will go through an on going security vetting. The Commission will issue badges and photo ID cards to all qualified pilots, which they must display when entering port facilities and boarding vessels. The legislation has also modernized and clarified the Commissions’ authority to issue regulations with respect to qualifications and training required for pilot licenses, pilot training (both initial and recurrent) accident investigation and drug and alcohol testing.
