LIBERTY,
MRS. WILLIAM PRATT
NARRAToa: The spirit of Liberty has ever been embodied in the hearts of
men and women in our dear land. Yea, there is a voice in every human
soul that· cries out to be free. Our fair town has answered that voice.
His it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? Or will you maintain it?"
Narr at or .................... ........ MRs. RICHARD DICKINSON
Trumpet Call
THIS IS OUR TOWN
This is our town
It is a beautiful town,
A quiet town
Of templed hills and deep valleys.
This is a town
Remote from the city's noise and din;
A town of rugged windswept hills
And winding roads
And racing brooks.
A town of fragrant pines
And spreading hemlocks,
Of slopes with laurel clusters,
And streets of shade from
Overhanging maples.
Fair and serene
Our humble homes do lie.
This is our town
With its ever-changing scenes
Of nature's loveliness:
With white and silver winter,
Budding, feathery, lacey spring;
Cool, restful green of summer,
And autumn's flaming glory.
Tranquility, order, and integrity
Are here;
So like the rugged pioneers of old.
We lay no claim to glory or to fame.
No historic shrines have we;
No great industrial marts.
But once so long ago
When our nation was at dawning
Our town stood up among the leaders
then,
And gave its all for Liberty.
Like other hill-top towns of New
England
We, too, have smaller grown,
But ever have we given of strength
To every cause of human right.
With a firm faith in God
And with faith in man, we humbly live.
We have a just pride
In our noble heritage.
Yes, we are one of the hundreds of
towns
Of plain, ordinary people
That has helped to make America
What it is today.

On June 26, 1713, James Cornish, Jr., and Damaris Tuller of Simsbury sold the
land for 30 pounds to Atherton Mather of Suffield. Shortly after began the sale of
lands to 44 speculators of Massachusetts and Connecticut. Mather sold all he owned
of "Bedford Plantations" and more too, realizing huge profits and causing endless
trouble for the Proprietors.
To persuade people to settle here the Proprietors gave away one-fifth of their
land. Free land! Land with a capital "L". What an inducement to fearless men!

SAMUEL: Sorry, no! Sorry that I came to Bedford Plantations with a new

land? 100 acres for nary a shilling! Just to come here and settle!
. . . How sweet an emotion is possession!
* * * *
Some day this shall be a big town - a pretty town with its hills, making
one look upwards to the great God above. "I will lift up mine eyes unto
the hills from whence cometh my help; my help cometh from the Lord."

WELLES: Some of our group have been lax. They have not given
away one-fifth of their land to encourage settlers. I move we petition
the Legislature for the right to dispose of the lands of the delinquent
proprietors for settling lots . . . We were to have 70 families here by
January, 1741. Here it is 7 years later and we still need more. Will
you give us the figures, Dr. Noyes?
SAMUEL
DR. NovEs:
We owned 42,532 acres. We have given away thousands of
acres to encourage settlement. We have given 2,370 acres for public
use. We have surveyed the Plantations. We have given 100 acres to
Rev. Iv!oses Tuttle, the minister. We have builded a church. We have
given salary for 3 years to the minister. We have gone to no end of
trouble getting settlers for the wilderness. Today we must settle about
the highways. And yet have we failed! Something must be done or
we lose money on our venture.
By 1750, 73 families had braved the wilderness frontier - lured by free land
and cheap land. Here were the very taproots of democracy; the settlers owning the
land upon which they worked.
Stouthearted folks they were, working out their problems in a truly democratic
way, standing shoulder to shoulder, secure in the knowledge that the welfare of each
was the welfare of all.
With Phineas Pratt a strong leader of the movement, the "freeholders and
other inhabitants" became a district on January 25, 1754 with a new name,
GRANVILLE.
Twenty years later, 1774, we find a thriving farming community of 1100
people - having grist mills, saw-mills, tanneries, and a fulling mill; each family,
an economic unit in itself.
Difficulties with the Mother Country had increased. The Stamp Act, Tea Tax,
Quartering Act had embroiled the colonies into a state of bitter rebellion. And what
was Granville's role? A most significant one!

beloved land a fit abode for your children. Rise, because you are
men! Rise because it is your duty! Rise ye Sons of Liberty!
"No town meeting!" ordered Royal Governor Gage.
"Town meetings we shall have!" defiantly maintained the citizens of Granville.
On July 11, 1774, they appointed a committee of seven to inspect the debate
between the Mother Country and the colonies. And what a fine document of protest
against England those men drew up!

The war waged bitterly on. Granville gave its fullest support of
powder, lead, guns, blankets, clothing, beef, com, money, and men over 300 men - all for the cause of Liberty!
The bitter struggle was over and a democracy born at a great cost. The absence
of so many men in the Continental armies had wrought its mark upon the farms and
homes which they left.
By 1800 Granville's population had grown to 2309. The rocky hills could not
provide good living conditions for so many - not when they heard of the fertile
fields of Ohio.
In early 1804, Samuel Everitt, Jr. , started an idea for the formation of a
company for westward migration. He suggested it to Levi Buttles and Timothy
Rose. Ultimately, a company of 79, named the Licking Land Company was organized. Buttles, Rose, and Job Case went to Ohio and purchased 29,040 acres.
Advance guards left Granville in March, June, and July of 1805 to improve
land, raise corn, build temporary huts, erect saw and grist mills. Everything was
ready by fall when the trek of 102 pioneers began.

REV.
T. M. CooLEY: 0 God, Creator of Mankind and Guardian of the
noblest destinies of men and nations, we pray to thee in this hour to
guide the footsteps of Thy children aright. "If Thy Presence go not
with me, carry us not up hence." Permit these, Thy children ever to
follow after Thee. Let them ever remember to seek knowledge and to
bring faith into the new frontier. This, 0 God, we humbly ask in
Thy Holy Name. Amen. As the hand of God is in your venture, go
and we will pray for you.

TOLLAND BECOMES A SEPARATE TOWN
''Fifteen miles from east to west!
Mountains come between us.
Travel is slow and hard,

On horse or on foot.
The roads are covered with snow ;
The roads are covered with ice;
The roads are deep in mud.
So, how can we plan together?"

What a supreme triumph it is, having grown old to merit the respect and
devotion of those who know us best! Rev. Timothy M. Cooley's life was a plain,
hard life of a country pastor and educator, yet it seems to rise in our community
like some great tree, with its roots deeply buried in the soil of our common life,
its branches close to the sky.
In 1856, during a heated debate in Congress over the· Kansas situation, Senator
Sumner of Massachusetts was brutally assaulted.
In the next episode we hear the views of our venerable Dr. Cooley.
