re provided for the company. May 4, 1835, the building committee and the selectmen were empowered to let the tenements in the town house for the term of from one to five years. Money for a stove for the selectmen's room was appropriated by the selectmen, October 27, 1835. November 9, 1835, the report of the building committee was received and laid on the table, but the portion of the report in regard to leasing the stores under the Town Hall to Messrs. Coburn and Fowle, and to Mr. Samuel S. Green, Jr., was accepted and confirmed. There was a disagreement and some litigation before the terms of these leases were decided, and Coburn & Company did not receive their lease until December, 1835. Taking even this last date as the time of its completion, the building has served the town and city for over seventy years. It was built to accommodate the town meeting, one official and two boards; it now shelters, not accommodates, six officials, including the mayor, and three boards, w

H., March 20, 1858, at the age of seventy-four. Two won their laurels in the dramatic profession. T. Allston Brown in his History of the American Stage 1733-1870, says Mrs. Bannister was born in Chester, N. H., and that her maiden name was Green. Records of the New York Stage 1750-1860, by Joseph N. Ireland, states that she was born of a respectable family in the State of New Hampshire, and a third authority says that her maiden name was Green. Over against these statements, stand thGreen. Over against these statements, stand those of the members of this society before mentioned in this paper, and to them we give credence as again it is a matter of family history, for the lady whom we are now discussing was a relative, a cousin of their father. It is not strange that in the matter of names a mistake should occur, for she had a middle name, not so common in her time as it is today, and the name of her last husband singularly was the same as her maiden name. Amelia was baptized, according to the First Parish reco

The Mayor becoming satisfied, from what his friends said, that the aberration of Eckerbush was only temporary, and, from his own conduct and conversation, that he was then in his right mind, released him from confinement, as above stated. George, slave of B. W. Green, was arrested on Tuesday night last, having in his possession nine new shirts, supposed to be stolen. The negro's account of the affair convinced the Mayor that they were not stolen by him, and he was therefore discharged. Edward Dean, arrested without a proper pass, was discharged by His Honor yesterday morning, with an admonition always to have a clear card for the future. A negro man named Kenny, belonging to Samuel S. Green, was taken up on Tuesday with five bags in his possession supposed to have been stolen. The accused gave a satisfactory excuse to the Mayor for having the articles mentioned, and was discharged.
