On the 17th of January, 1863, the brigade proceeded upon a reconnoissance towards Trenton, for five days; after which, until April 25, it acted as provost-guard in Newbern. On the 28th of April, two companies, commanded by Captains Minot and Tappan, under the orders of Major Sturgis, were sent on an expedition up the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad, to endeavor to ascertain the strength of the enemy. Captain Bumstead's company was directed to proceed to the cross-road leading to the Dover road, to explore, and communicate with Brigadier-General Palmer, whose column was on that road. The remainder of the troops immediately started upon the expedition, the enemy being reported in some force in the neighborhood of the junction. An engagement took place, resulting in the defeat of the enemy; and the colors of the regiment were planted upon their works. During the remainder of the term of service, the regiment remained encamped near Fort Spinola; and, on June 24, it proceeded
ack behind Southwest creek, and General Cox had sent two regiments, under Colonel Upham, Fifteenth Connecticut infantry, to secure the crossing of the creek on the Dover road. The enemy, having been reinforced by a portion of the old Army of Tennessee, recrossed the creek some distance above the Dover road, came down in rear of CoDover road, came down in rear of Colonel Upham's position, and surprised and captured nearly his entire command, about seven hundred men. The enemy then advanced and endeavored to penetrate between General Carter's and General Palmer's divisions, occupying the Dover road and the railroad respectively, but was checked by General Ruger's division, which was just arDover road and the railroad respectively, but was checked by General Ruger's division, which was just arriving upon the field. There was no engagement during the day beyond light skirmishing, and the loss on either. side, with the exception of the prisoners captured from Colonel Upham, was insignificant. It being evident that the enemy's force was at least equal to that of General Cox, and that reinforcements were arriving as ra

November 5th, The town voted to pay the families of the soldiers in the service from Dover the aid allowed by the State law. 1862. July 28th, Messrs. Ephraim Wilson, John Q. A. Nichols, Asa Talbot, Clement Bartlett, Benjamin N. Sawin, were chosen a coy a bounty of one hundred and twenty-five dollars to volunteers under the present and all subsequent calls made by the President; also, to refund to inhabitants of Dover the amount of money paid by them to help recruiting. During this year twenty-six hundred dollars were voluntarily subscribed by individuals for this purpose, which was repaid by the town. Dover furnished sixty-five men for the war, which was a surplus of four over and above all demands. One was a commissioned officer. The whole amount of money raised and expended by the town for war purposes, exclusive of State aid, was seven thousand six hundred and nineteen dollars and seventy-five

He uses a large amount of Italian and domestic marble, and his work is sent all over the country. Among others engaged in stone working are: The Charles River Stone Co., Austin Ford & Son, R. J. Rutherford, Union Marble and Granite Works, A. Higgins & Co., and William A. Bertsch. Dover Stamping Co. The Dover Stamping Co. was founded in 1833 by Mr. Horace Whitney, of Dover, N. H. Quite early in life he conceived the idea of making tin covers by means of dies; these articles at that time being raised up by hammering by hand, a very slow process. It was not until 1847 that he succeeded in doing such work. The business was carried along in a small way for a number of years, and finally it became necessary to establish an office in Boston, Mass., which was done in 1857, changing the firm name of Horace Whitney & Co. to the present name of Dover Stamping Co.

But the result was not encouraging. Mr. Garrison, writing from Newport, June 22, 1836, of the abandonment of the attempt to pass in the Rhode Island Legislature Lib. 6.73. resolutions advising punishment of the abolition conspirators, reviewed the situation at that date: A gentleman from Dover informs me, that the committee Lib. 6.107. appointed by the New Hampshire Legislature to consider and report upon the pro-slavery documents from the South, have not been able to agree, and the whole subject has been postponed to the next session, which is tantamount to an indefinite postponement. The subservient element prevailed at the next session (Lib. 7: 14, 25), but legislation against the abolitionists was discountenanced. The legislatures of Maine and New York have adopted some we

ress over slavery in the District and over the inter-State slave trade, etc. The action of this Convention (to which, by the way, Lib. 7.163. female delegates were admitted) determined the ascendency of Mr. Garrison, not only in Massachusetts, but in New England, which was largely represented at Worcester. Primarily it was a tribute to his personal character in a region where he was intimately known, and where his presence never failed to disarm prejudice and opposition. Thus, at Dover, N. H., in 1842, We were amazed above measure, writes N. P. Rogers,to hear brother Francis Cogswell and Rev. Brother Young eulogizing Garrison. I have been highly pleased with Mr. Garrison, said Brother Young. . . . If you would send out such men as Garrison, said friend Cogswell, your cause would prosper. How long have you been an admirer of Garrison, brother Cogswell? said we. Oh, I have not liked his writings, said he. He has not written as he speaks here. Always, said we ( Acts of the A.
