    CHAPTER XVIII. KEENE IN THE ClVIL WAR. 1861-1865. On the 4th of April, 1861, Dr. Thomas E. Hatch was appointed postmaster at Keene' under the administration of President Lincoln, vice Joshua D. Colony. Albert God­ frey was the choice of the citizens, as expressed by a vote of 189 to 62, but Dr. Hatch was appointed through the influence of his uncle, Hon. Thomas M. Edwards, member of congress. Personally Dr. Hatch was acceptable to the people, but his appointment in opposition to the choice of the citizens caused much ill feeling. During the early months of 1861, alarming reports of the acts of the dis~nionists were daily received. One after another the Southern states passed the "Ordinance of Secession," and a Southern confederacy was formed. Officers of the army and navy were throwing off their .allegiance and espousing the cause of the South. Armed forces were organizing and drilling throughout the South­ ern states. A majority of the cabinet of President Buchan­ an was secessionist, and arms, forts, arsenals and other war material, besides publ1c funds and other property belonging to the government, were seized, to be used in active rebellion. The forts in the harbor at Charleston, S. C., held by a small force of United States troops, were demanded and threatened with forcible capture if the de­ mand was refused. The life of the president-elect was known to be in peril, but the designs of the assassins were frustrated and Mr. Lincoln reached Washington and was inaugurated on the 4th of March. On the 12th of April, 1861, Fort Sumpter was attacked by the secessionists, and after a gallant defence was sur­ rendered with the honors of war.

  • Convention Constitution
    The State of New Hampshire CONVENTION TO REVISE THE CONSTITUTION NOVEMBER 1850 Published by the State of New Hampshire, Secretary of State, Concord, New Hampshire 03301 2005 OFFICERS OF THE CONVENTION –––––––––––– President FRANKLIN PIERCE of Concord Secretary THOMAS WHIPPLE of Laconia Assistant Secretary CHARLES H. BELL of Exeter Chaplain THE REVEREND LEVI W. LEONARD of Dublin Doorkeepers IRA R. PHILBRICK of Gilmanton DAVID HARRIS of Swanzey INTRODUCTION Although the delegates to New Hampshire’s Fifth Constitutional Conven- tion called for the printing of its journal the task was never completed. Ever since the manuscript was relocated to the State Archives in 1980, its existence then unknown to living researchers, it has been our intention that it be printed to take its place on the shelf with the journals of our other constitutional conventions. The 1850 convention effectively changed the constitution very little, but it attracts our attention because several of the major items of discussion are the same subjects that command our attention today over a century and a half later. The funding of public education, the structure of the judicial system, and the details of choosing state officials are dominant topics in these pages. The president of the convention, Franklin Pierce who repre- sented Concord, went on to become New Hampshire’s only native son to occupy the White House as our 14th president from 1853 to1857. At the end of the convention, in April 1851, the delegates paid tribute to Pierce for his tremendous service in holding them together and in guiding their course. It is in honor and celebration of Pierce’s 200th birthday [born November 23, 1804] that we now publish this record as part of our state’s history.
