Historians have explored various parts of this movement in a discrete fashion, but never has anyone attempted to examine the history of the effort to create a Union Party across the decade of the 1850s. What I find is that all incarnations of the Union Party stressed a common devotion to the rule of law, which they saw as under threat by sectional agitators who stirred up the passions of the public. Whether in debates over the right of the federal government to coerce a state, the legality of the Fugitive Slave Act, and presence of filibustering oversees, or the violence which attended partisan elections, Americans’ respect for the rule of law seemed at issue throughout that turbulent decade.

    TOWN OF LANSING. 355 vices were held at the house of Jonathan Rolfe and later at the Wood ward school house in the south part of the town. In 1842 a house of worship was built at Enfield Center at a cost of about $1,300. The present pastor is Rev. T. F. Brodwick.

H. L. Griffin is the present pastor. The Methodist church af Kennedy's Corners was the development of a class which was formed at the North school house in 1844, with Elias Lanning as leader; it was at first under the charge of the Jack sonville church ; but later under the church at Enfield Center. The church edifice was built in 1848. The Methodist church of Enfield was recognized as a separate charge January 19, 1835. Rev. Joseph Pearsall was the first pastor.
