ROCHESTER'S BI-CE~TENl\JAL ~ECOI1P. INTRODUCTORY. The Town of Rochester, Plymonth County, Massachu­ setts, received its llame from the ancient city of Rochester, in Kent, England, whence many of the fiL'st settlers came. It is recorded in history that the oysters found on those shores were celebrated by the Romans for their excellence and OU1' ancestors finding all abundance of delicious shell­ fish herc, in memory of their former home veryappropriate­ ly gave to this tract the name of Rochester. A few years ago the voters of Rochester, in town meet­ ing 3ssembled,.directedJoseph S. Luce, Esq., (the present chairman of the selectmen of Marion) to copy the old pl'Oprietors' records. It may be proper here to state that the "Sepecan" grant embraced what is now Rochester, Mar­ ion, Mattapoisett, and the greater portion of 'Vareham. Mr. Luce still has the records in his possession, and last Winter called the attention of the authorities of the several towns to the ta'ct that on the 22d day of July, 1679, the first meeting of the proprietors was held at Plymouth, and steps taken towards forming a settlement at "Sepeean," the por­ tion then best known. He also suggested that the 22d of July, 1879, the two-hundr~dth anniversary of the first set- • 4 ROCHESTER'S BI-CENTENNIAL. tlement be commemorated by appropriate ceremonies. In ~lCcOl'dance• with his views all artie1e was inserted in the several warral1ts to see what actIOn the towns would take in regard to a celebrntion. Rochester chose a committee con­ sisting of H. H. Bennett, Alden Rounsville, Jr., Nahlllll F. Morse, (the board of selectmen), Thomas Ellio and A. W. Bisbee. The committee chosen by "\Vareham was Capt. Alden Besse, Capt. Benj. F. Gibbs, Geo. F. Wing, (select­ men), E. B. Powers, L. H. Bartlett and E. A. Gammons. Mllrion voted an appropriation of $100, and chose as her committee the three selectmen, Joseph S.'Luce, Capt. Obed Delano and Capt. 1. N. Hathaway, also Dr. H. C. Vose and 1. N. Lewis. Mattapoisett's committee consisted of Capt. Joseph R. Taber, Jarvis ~. Ellis, Capt.. Franklin Cross. The first meeting of the several committees was held at Town Hall, Marion, April 21st, 1879. Capt. Benj. F.· Gibbs, vVareham, was chosen chait'man; Augnstine VV. Bis­ bee, Rochester, secretat·y; Capt. 1. N. Hathaway, Mar­ ion, treasurer. It was unanimously voted to have a celebra­ tion on the 22d of Juiy. .Mr. Luce stated that in the ab­ sence of official records as to when the first house was built it would be well to commemorate the two-hundredth anni­ versary of the proprietors' meetin~ at the date of the first settlement. It was at first decided to have the celebration at Little Neck, the head of ::\1arion harbor, on account of the historical associations connected with the spot. Afterwards it was deemed expedient t~ change the location to Handy's Grove, about a mile from Marion station, on the Rochel;ter road. The committee held several meetings and chose sub-com­ mittees as follows: To Solicit Funds.-Capt. Judah Hathaway and George W. Humphrey, from Rochester; Capt.

Arrangements were made with the Old Colony railroad for reduced fares 'lnd extra trains. The dinner committee contracted with Otis A. Sisson and L. W. Carl, of New Bedford, to furnish the dinner. Your committee held nine meetings and their proceedings were characterized by harmony and unanimity. We are pleased to add that we hall the hearty co-operation of the citizens of the old township and that they seconded our plans ROCIt1!1ST1!1R'S nt-C1!1NT1!1NNtAL. 7 and efforts to a degree which made the celebration a perfect success. The contributiolls were liberal and freely given. Old Rochester can justly be proud of her record for the last two hundred years, and from the lessons of the past be guided in the future to still nobler deeds of usefulness. This event has rescued from oblivion very much that would have been forgotten and generations to co~e will read with interest the proceedings of to-day. 8 ROCHESTER'S BI-CENTENNIAL. THE CELEBRATION. At un early hour in the morning the street louding to the Grove was thronged with residents and visitors. The arri­ val of teams brought numbers from adjoining towns. The weather was propitious and all that could be desired, al­ thou~h in the morning there were slight indications of rain. Four hunured ftnd ninety-one excursion tickets by railroad were Bold at Fairhaven and two hundred and fort)' at Matta­ poisett, in addition to which probably three times that num­ ber came by carriuge from New Bedforu and vicinity. The train from Boston brought the State officials, Middleboro Band, Standish Guards, and a host of visitors. At the least calculation some six thousand people were in atteudance to do honor to the occasion. PROCESSION.

These Bay Staters joined the call Carol Rose, executive director at the ACLU of of Massachusetts-born ACLU founder Roger Baldwin. Together, they formed Massachusetts, stands outside the historic residence where a small group of activists the Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts—the first ACLU state affiliate in founded the organization in 1920. the nation. The ACLU has always been rooted in courage and guided by a vision: to extend the promise of civil rights and civil liberties to all people. In 1920, the U.S. Supreme Court had yet to uphold a single free speech claim. So- called radicals were rounded up and deported in droves. Activists languished in jail for distributing anti-war literature and for promoting contraception and equal rights. Women won the right to vote just that year, and the Voting Rights Act was decades away. Equal rights for LGBTQ people were unthinkable. And yet, the ACLU dared to envision how, by standing together in support of civil rights and civil liberties, we could create a more just and equitable nation for all. Much has changed in the last century—but our role has not. For 100 years, the ACLU has been the leading defender of freedom here in Massachusetts and nationwide. The ACLU has grown from a small group of idealists to a vast resistance movement.

STEELE fitting, PRESIDENT that Vincennes should also be home to the first Rotary club chartered in a town of less than 25,000 people, a town that Rotary International thought was too small to sustain a club! After nearly two years of persistence, and with the help and sponsorship of the Terre Haute Rotary Club, Vincennes received its charter, and the rest is history. We not only became a viable Rotary club but have been an active, vibrant club that is doing what good Rotary clubs do—making a difference in their community and beyond! Welcome to the Vincennes Rotary Centennial Celebration, and thank you for helping us celebrate our successful, first 100 years. Last October, we were the first club in District 6580 to conduct a three-year visioning process which, I feel confident, will help us to positively kick off our second 100 years.
