146 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
PUBLISHED RECORDS OF THE MASSACHUSETTS MILITIA WHO SERVED IN THE WAR OF 1812-14.
On April 27, 1914, the commission submitted to the Governor a preliminary draft of a report on the work of the Adjutant- General's office in connection with the compilation and publica- tion of the records of the Massachusetts militia who served in the war of 1812-14. An investigation of this work was under- taken as a result of charges made to the Commission on Econ- omy and Efficiency by a private citizen of the Commonwealth, who questioned the legality of expenditures made for the compila- tion and publication of the records. Questions were also raised as to whether the cost of the work was excessive and whether a compilation of the records was actually made in accordance with the provisions of the law authorizing the work. With regard to the legality of expenditures, the Auditor held that the payments in question were legally made. The nature and reliability of the published records and the cost of the work were discussed fully in the preliminary report submitted to the Governor in .\pril, and are briefly considered here. Material collected during this investigation, including correspondence with former State offi- cials, copies of old letters found in the military archives, memo- randa relative to old records, stenographic reports of interviews, etc., are on file in this office.
The publication of the records of the militia was advocated by the Massachusetts Society of the War of 1812, members of which petitioned the Legislature of 1911 for such publication. The committee on military affairs reported against the bill mainly because no one could inform them concerning the probable cost of the publication. In 1912 a similar petition was filed and upon advices received from the Adjutant-General that the probable cost of such work would not exceed $6,500 the Legis- lature authorized the publication. The estimate submitted by the Adjutant-General was made for him by the custodian of the military archives, whose statement to the Adjutant-General was in part as follows: —
As a matter of sentiment, permit me to say that in 1912 legislation should be had for the publishing of the records of the war of 1812, and completed in 1914, as the service performed by the Massachusetts troops was in 1814. If no extra lielp was employed, the work could be done outside of office hours by two indexing clerks and myself, three in all, at such compensation as you might recommend. I should therefore
191.-1.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 96. 147
judge tliiit .$3,000 was ample in addition to the $3,500, ' — total of $6,500, — but should extra help be employed, the cost woidd naturally he more, double if not triple.
This haphazard estimate, that .$3,000 in the way of additional compensation for the custodian and the two clerks in his office "was ample in addition to the $3,500" estimated printing cost, was the basis for the authorization of the work. The compila- tion of the records was authorized by chapter 81 of the Resolves of 1912, which reads as follows: —
Resolved, That the adjutant general i.s autliorized and directed to pre- pare a compilation of the records of the militia who responded to the call of the governor of the commonwealth to repel a threatened invasion during the war of eighteen hundred and twelve, as the same are found in the archives in the office of the adjutant general. The said work shall Ije done solely under the direction of tlie adjutant general and shall be completed within one year after the passage of this resolve.
Under the provisions of chapter 71S of the Acts of 1912 the sum of $6,500 was appropriated "for the publication of certain state military records of the war of eighteen hundred and twelve, as authorized by chapter eighty-one of the resolves of the present year," although in fact no specific authorization for publication was given in the resolve.
The legislation authorized a compilation of the records, "as the same are found in the archives in the office of the adjutant general." For historical purposes the records remaining in the archives are of doubtful value, since nearly all original records were sent to Washington in 1823 as vouchers for payments made by the Federal government. If this fact had been properly called to the attention of the committee on military affairs it is the belief of this commission that no legislation authorizing the publication of the records in the archives would have been enacted. Although the committee on military affairs was given seme information concerning the records in the archives division, it is understood that no emphasis was laid upon the fact that the records were neither original records nor certified copies of the original.
The records in the archives division consist of a volume and inde.\ known as the "Rolls of the Massachusetts Militia in the War of 18^2-14," and a volume containing "Additional Rolls of
* For printing.
148 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
Troops in Service, 1812-14." In 1878 an appropriation not exceeding $1,000 was made (under the provisions of chapter 283 of the acts) for obtaining these rolls. They were purchased in the same year for the sum of $1,000 from one Damon E. Cheney of Orange, Mass., who was an agent of the Pension Bureau. In 1882 the sum of $200 was paid Z. K. Harmon for work done in connection with these records. In the published work contain- ing these records the name of Z. K. Harmon appears as compiler. These rolls were made from certain documents in Washington, but whether they were made from originals, or whether they were complete, or whether the Harmon copy was correct, could not be determined by the Adjutant-General in 1913. The Adju- tant-General first took steps to ascertain what the records con- sisted of, and also to determine their authenticity in March, 1913, when he directed a letter to Gen. A. Hun Berry, who was Adjutant-General of Massachusetts in 1881, but he was able to furnish only meager information. The Adjutant-General should have made careful inquiry into the reliability of the records before the work was started, and his failure to take action until March, 1913 — subsequent to the completion of the compila- tion — is the strongest criticism of the laxity characterizing the conduct of the work. Prior to the commencement of the work the custodian had informed the Adjutant-General as to the nature of the records in the military archives.
The Adjutant-General has claimed that the publication is a compilation of the records, " as the same are found in the archives." This is largely true, but such a claim does not alter the fact that the compilation is unreliable from a historical standpoint. Moreover, in answer to a letter from the Adjutant- General, the War Department wrote, on Feb. 3, 1914, that " nothing is known in this office with regard to the book in question,' nor as to the source from which the data in it were obtained. The only way in which it could be determined whether or not the compilation is authentic would be to compare the entries in the book, name by name, with the official records."
The published report is but a copy of the "Harmon book" slightly rearranged, with the addition of a very small amount of material taken from other papers in the archives division, and may be correctly described as merely a new edition of that compilation. No person can be found who will vouch for the authenticity of the publication.

The three clerks working on the compilation received a total of 12,785.20 as compensation, the custodian receiving $1,266 and the two clerks $759.60 each. Payments were not made to the clerks periodically during the progress of the work, but a single bill covering the total amount claimed for each clerk was submitted and settled in lump-sum payments upon completion of the work. These amounts were paid as extra compensation, on the assumption that the work was performed outside of office hours. No record of the time spent on the work was kept, the custodian simply checking off dates on an old calendar on his desk. The bills for services of the three clerks were sub- mitted for eight hundred and forty-four hours each, which the custodian claimed was much less than the actual work time, although the watchmen's records of time of departure from the State House, as kept in the sergeant-at-arm's office, show only about four hundred and fifty hours. No reports of time con- sumed, expense or progress of work were made by the custodian to the Adjutant-General during the work, none being required.
With reference to the compensation to be paid the clerks, the Adjutant-General at first believed that a sum equal to the annual salary of the clerks engaged upon the work should be paid, but the appropriation would not allow of this, so the clerks were paid for eight hundred and forty-four hours at a rate double their regular compensation, giving the custodian $1.50 an hour and each of the two clerks 90 cents an hour.
The commission believes that a daily record .should have been kept by these three clerks showing the actual time employed on this work and the amount of work accomplished, and that re- ports based on this record should have been submitted at stated periods to the Adjutant-General. The method of determining the rate of compensation was arbitrary, since neither the nature nor quantity of the work was considered, but merely the amount of the appropriation which might be used for this purpose. It is the opinion of the commission that the work would have been accomplished in much less time and with better results if clerks had been employed exclusively on this work during regu- lar office hours and under competent supervision.
In conclusion, the commission is of the opinion that the pub- lished records are of doubtful value, and that the cost of com- pilation was grosslj' excessive. Responsibility foi the proper conduct of the work rested upon the then Adjutant-General as head of the office, while immediate charge of the work was in-
150 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
trusted to the custodian of the mihtary archives. Both officials appear to be open to criticism in connection with this work. No recommendation for action appears to be indicated, in view of the fact that the official then serving as Adjutant-General no longer holds that position, and in view of the further fact that the retirement of the custodian of the military archives has been recommended in a report on the "Business Administration of the Militia," submitted to the Governor by this commission. The custodian's part in the compilation and publication of the records of the militia in the war of 1812-14 shows most em- phatically the urgency ol his early retirement from the State service.
REPORT ON ALLEGED IMPROPER SELLING METHODS USED BY THE MASSACHUSETTS COMMISSION FOR THE
BLIND.
Oct. 19, 1914.
His Excellency the Govenwr and the Executive Council.
Sirs: — Action was taken before the Commission on Economy and Efficiency initially on June 26, 1914, in form of protest and petition instituted by Joseph L. Cohen of New York, alleging, in general, unfair methods of business administration main- tained by the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind in the distribution and sale of a so-called commodity, known as the "Wundermop." In particular, it was alleged that methods now maintained by the Commission for the Blind in the distribution and sale of the mop in New York City, and in territory outside of Massachusetts, constitute a monopoly and are in restraint of trade. It was further alleged that refusal of the commission to sell the Wundermop to a resident of Massachusetts (the Tate Manufacturing Company) constitutes a discrimination which is, in substance, a violation of the Massachusetts statutes affecting such commission. Subsequent to date above mentioned confer- ences were held in the office of this commission with Simon Cohen of counsel for petitioner, and with Chairman ]Munroe of the Commission for the Blind.
Under date of Aug. 26, 1914, Joseph L. Cohen, hereinafter known as the petitioner, through counsel, formally requested a public hearing upon matters set forth in protest and petition. This request was honored on Sept. 3, 1914, when there were present at such hearing several parties in interest to the contro-
1915.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — Xo. 96. 151
versy. Subsequent to the hearing, and under date of Septem- ber S, counsel for petitioner filed with this commission requests for findings of fact, and such were taken under advisement.
The undisputed facts appear to be as follows: during the latter part of the year 1908 the Commission for the Blind, acting through its distributing agent, George S. Mansfield, efl'ected a sample order sale of Wunderniops with the Board of Education of the city of New York. Subsequent to this transaction, and upon receipt of several telegraphic orders for quantities of such mops, the commission, through its agent, IMr. Mansfield, made an oral agreement with Samuel Lewis of New York City, from whom the first telegraphic order was received. Mr. Lewis is a dealer in janitor and hospital supplies in the city of New York, and conducts an extensive business in New York City and con- tiguous territory. By the provisions of the agreement made be- tween the Commission for the Blind and Mr. Lewis, the latter was to act as the exclusive agent for the commission in the dis- tribution of Wunderniops in the city of New York, and in terri- tories outside of Massachusetts not otherwise covered by exclu- sive agencies. Sales of the Wundermop subsequently increased in material manner through the activities of Mr. Lewis, and through the energy, as well, of a selling agent in his employ, one Joseph L. Cohen of New York, otherwise known as petitioner in the matter now before the commission.
It was understood between the Commission for the Blind and Mr. Lewis, and made a part of the agreement between the parties, that said Lewis should use his discretion in the matter of sales of the mop, and that he might sell or refuse to sell to such parties as he saw fit. It is also a fact that in eft'ecting sales of the Wundermop to parties in the city of New York and elsewhere, Mr. Lewis established certain restrictions which were drastic, and which eliminated the possibility of sales to dealers competing with I\Ir. Lewis in the sale of the Wundermop.
In the latter part of the year 1911 petitioner left the employ of iMr. Lewis, subsequently engaging himself in the business of pro- viding janitor, hotel and hospital supplies, and constituting himself sole proprietor of the Standard Supply Company, so called, of New York City. By the nature of the business insti- tuted by petitioner, he became, theoretically, an active competi- tor with Samuel Lewis in the sale and distribution of the Wunder- mop. It appears that at no time has Mr. Lewis sold any of the ^^ undermops to petitioner, and it is also evident that no pro-
152 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
posals made by petitioner for the purcha*se of such mops have ever been favorably considered by said Lewis. Unable to pur- chase mops from Mr. Lewis, and obtaining limited quantities of the commodity through third parties, petitioner endeavored to purchase direct from the commission in Boston, and indirectly from said commission through the Tate Manufacturing Companj^ a Boston concern. Both attempts were unsuccessful. Offers for the purchase of quantities of mops made by petitioner to the Commission for the Blind were refused upon the ground that petitioner, a resident of New York City, should purchase through the commission's agent, Mr. Lewis of New York. Offers of purchase made by the Tate Manufacturing Company were acceptable to the commission, but when inquiry was made by that body as to the ultimate destination of mops, and such not forthcoming from the Tate Manufacturing Company, the offer by this concern was refused. This refusal was based upon the peculiar knowledge of the commission that the Tate Manufactur- ing Company was to all intents and purposes an agent of peti- tioner. Refusal of the commission to sell to the Tate Manu- facturing Company in this instance was, as stated by ofHcials of the commission, based entirely upon the aim of the commission to protect its selling agent, Mr. Lewis, in territory assigned to him.
It appears that a marked feeling of unfriendliness has existed between Mr. Lewis and the petitioner, and this condition has apparently accentuated a situation otherwise possible of allevia- tion. It further appears that a mop, in all but one essential identical with the patented Wundermop article, and manu- factured by M. J. Tuohy of Fall River, has been for some time placed on the market through the activities of Barnett, Brown & Co. of New York City. It appears that the petitioner has been engaged in the sale of this infringing mop, and that this fact may have affected materially the success of the Wundermop in New York City and in other territories assigned to Samuel Lewis.
Upon request of petitioner the Commission for the Blind enter- tained a proposal for the purchase of Wundermops from said petitioner, and upon request received from him an offer of approx- imately 5 gross per month. This oft'er the commission refused to accept for the following reasons: first, because the amount offered by petitioner was less than that at present taken by Samuel Lewis, who now purchases a quantity approximating 30 gross
1915.] PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 96. 153
per month; and second, because the business status of petitioner in New York City was not one which could favorably compare with said Lewis, since the latter had, by virtue of time and acquaintance, acquired entree into many of the city and State institutions, and for this reason was able to dispose of a contin- ually increasing quantity of mops. It further appeared that petitioner had, upon several occasions, offered the Wundermop at a so-called "cut-rate price," and that by his activities in the sale of the so-called Brabro mop he had affiliated himself, to a marked degree, with parties apparently infringing upon the patented rights of the Wundermop. It was also stated by the Commission for the Blind that the element of advertising such mops instituted by said Lewis, and made possible by virtue of the exclusive agreement with Lewis, established an important consideration in the present and future sales of such commodity. The Commission for the Blind stated that its relation with Samuel Lewis as exclusive selling agent of the Wundermop in territories assigned to him was not irrevocable, and that upon receipt of a better business proposition than that now existing between the commission and said Lewis, the former would readily enter into negotiations with any reliable party other than its present agent, Mr. Lewis.
The Massachusetts Commission for the Blind was established by chapter 385 of the Acts of 1906. The general scope and pur- pose of this State agency are concerned with study of conditions among the blind with a view to betterment and alleviation, and among other matters it is specifically provided, b^^ section 4 of chapter 385 of the Acts of 1906, that with the approval of the Governor and Council said commission may "establish, equip and maintain one or more schools for industrial training and workshops for the employment of the blind persons, may pay to employees suitable wages, and may devise means for the sale and distribution of the products of such schools and workshops."
By virtue of authority granted in this section the commission has established several workshops throughout the Commonwealth, and one in particular in the city of Cambridge, where there is manufactured at the present time a certain commodity known as the Wundermop. This mop is an article of patented nature in- vented by Frederick W. Pendergast of Cambridge, a blind man, and registered in his name in the United States Patent Office.
154 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
Under an agreement made on the first day of June, 1910, between said Pendergast and the Massachusetts Association for Promoting the Interest of the Adult Blind, such patent rights as were granted by the United States government to said Pendergast were, for a consideration, assigned to the association herein- before mentioned. In substance, this association is a holding company, and the patented rights acquired by said Pendergast are now enjoyed by the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind. (See agreement to this effect on page 157, Appendix I.)
The Massachusetts Commission for the Blind is a State insti- tution supported in substantial manner by appropriations from the Legislature. Such governmental institution is, therefore, in reference to the taxpayers of the Commonwealth, analogous to a public service corporation, in that it must serve all the residents of the Commonwealth in like manner and without discrimination. This conclusion, it would appear in the premises, is obvious. Exclusive arrangements, therefore, with sellmg agents within the confines of the Commonwealth would appear to be out of the cjuestion for such State institution. Massachusetts statutes in reference to monopoly (see R. L., cliap. 5(i, sect. 1; chap. 469, Acts of 1907; chap. 558, Acts of 190S; chap. 503, Acts of 1911) do not appear to cover such governmental institutions as the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind, nor is such commis- sion by law required to request competitive bids for the purchase of raw material or sale of any products manufactured in its workshop. Beyond the confines of the Commonwealth, however, the statutes al)ove quoted do not extend, and the status of the commission is, in the large, analogous to that of a private indi- vidual when dealing with residents of States other than of Massachusetts. Its rights, therefore, to make exclusive arrange- ments with the residents of other States for the sale and distribu- tion of goods manufactured by the commission is in no manner controverted by law. When doing business, therefore, in a foreign State, and when considered in the large as of the status of an individual concern, the commission could well act within its legal rights in effecting an exclusive agency with Samuel Lewis, since the contract was not illegal by the Ii'x loci contractus. Agreements between principal and agent or seller and buyer, that an agent or buyer shall have exclusive territory within which to operate or resell, are not within statutes against combinations when properly construed in accordance with common-law prin.

ciples. (Cf. 27, Cyc. 900. See also the case of Houck i'. Wright, 77 Miss., Reports 476. The latter case is to be found on page 158, Appendi.x II.)
A patent right and a sale of goods thus protected constitutes by its very nature a monopoly, and is attended with certain legitimate restrictions not otherwise obtainable in the sale of nonprotected commodities. Nowhere at common law can there be found a prohibition against the creation of monopoly by an individual. (See dictum of the court, Justice White, in the case of the Standard Oil Company of New York, rt al., v. the United States, 31 United States Supreme Court Reports 502, page 621.) It would appear, therefore, that neither by statute nor by common law has the arrangement made by the Commis- sion for the Blind with ]Mr. Lewis of New York operated to an illegal end. It is also e^•ident that the refusal of the commission to sell to the petitioner through the Tate Manufacturing Com- pany as an agent was in accordance with law and sound judg- ment, and could not be held equivalent to a discrimination in the matter of sales to residents of the Commonwealth. This is so because of the peculiar knowledge which in this instance the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind had in this, that the Tate Manufacturing Company was in substance an agent of the petitioner, and that, therefore, the sales made to such company were in substance sales made to petitioner, and likewise a viola- tion of the agreement made by the commission with Samuel Lewis of New York. That the commission could exercise the utmost prudence in the sale of its patented commodity is clearly an incontrovertible truism.
The commission is of the opinion, therefore, that no illegality has attended any of the transactions of the Commission for the Blind in this Commonwealth or any other State where such commodity has been sold. The problem, therefore, that presents itself for consideration is one which deals with the wisdom of present arrangements, and is, therefore, based upon policy rather than upon an infringement of the law. It appears obvious that the aim of the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind is to procure, in so far as possible, the largest possible amount of work for its unfortunate employees, and this purpose it has effected outside the confines of the Commonwealth by the arrangement made with Mr. Lewis already discussed in this report. To dis- continue this arrangement would be to install a general system
156 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
of distribution in foreign States, which, it might be argued, would reduce the price of the commodity and increase competi- tion.
That the present arrangement with Mr. Lewis has been pro- ductive of good can be understood by tlie fact that in the last five years the total sales of the Wundermop have approximated $146,088, of which amount Mr. Lewis is accredited with sales amounting to $51,178, or approximately 35 per cent, of the total output of the shop. No other arrangement for the sale and distribution of the mop outside of Massachusetts than that effected with Mr. Lewis has ever been made. The arrangement now in vogue has been productive of good for the blind em- ployees of the commission, and has been continued as a proper policy by the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind with the evident sanction of the Governor and Council, as provided by section 4 of chapter 385 of the Acts of the year 1906.
Aside from the merits of the controversy between the Com- mission for the Blind and the petitioner, it might well be ques- tioned if another and better system of distribution could not be instituted in New York City and other territories which would argue for a greater output of the Wundermop. Exclusive rights granted to agents in selected territories should not be accom- panied by the bestowal of such powers upon these agents as to make it possible for them to refuse arbitrarily' the sale of any commodity intrusted to their care. It would seem that an arrangement might be devised whereby said Lewis could well retain the exclusive rights granted to him and yet be directed to sell to all, competitors or otherwise, when such parties were in good faith. Violations of such good faith by parties pur- chasing from Lewis could be effectively penalized by the refusal of offers for continued supplies of the Wundermop. It is, how- ever, in the large, a cjuestion of policy. It would appear that well-established commercial usage has not been considered the best policy in the contract existing between the Commission for the Blind and Mr. Lewis; yet it might be well considered in attempting an equitable solution of the problem. This usage, it is submitted, might argue for a check of the arbitrary powers now enjoyed by Samuel Lewis in the disposition and sale of the Wundermop.
Respectfully submitted. Commission on Economy and Efficiency.

Agreement between the Massachusetts Association for Promot- ing THE Interests of the Adult Blind and Frederick W. Pendergast.
.Agreement made this first day of June, 1910, by and between the Massachusetts Association for Promoting the Interests of the Adult Blind, hereinafter referred to as the association, party of the first part, and Frederick W. Pendergast of Cambridge, in tlie County of Middlesex and Commonwealtli of Massachusetts, party of the second part.
Witnesselh, That whereas the said Pendergast has invented an improve- ment in mop-heads and procured a patent thereon, being numbered 909,449 in the Patent Office of the United States of America; and
Whereas, the said Pendergast has assigned to the said association his entire right, title and interest in and to the said invention and Letters Patent, and any re-issue, renewal or extension thereof, and
Whereas, the said Pendergast in assigning said interest, and tlie said Association in accepting the same, had in view certain benefits to accrue to the said Frederick W. Pendergast.
Now, therefore, the said parties, the Association acting for itself, its successors and assigns, the said Pendergast for himself, his executors, administrators and assigns, have agreed as follows:
1. The said Association sliall manufacture and sell, and may license others to manufacture and sell, mop-heads, embodying said invention, to the end of the term for which said Letters Patent were granted, and shall use reasonable diligence in creating and supplying a demand for said mop-lieads.
2. The said Association agrees to pay the said Frederick W. Pendergast and his legal representatives a license fee or royalty of ten (10) cents per dozen mop-heads for every dozen manufactured and sold each year by the Association or under licenses granted by it up to and including an amount of fifteen hundred (1,500) dozens; for each five hundred (500) dozens of mop-heads manufactured and sold each year after said amount of fifteen hundred (1,500) dozens the Association agrees to pay at a smaller rate diminishing by one (1) cent per dozen for each succeeding five hun- dred (500) dozens until the rate shall become five (5) cents a dozen; so that the said Association agrees to pay for every dozen manufactured and sold each year between fifteen hundred (1,500) and two thousand (2,000) dozens at the rate of nine (9) cents per dozen, between two thousand (2,000) and twenty-five hundred (2,500) dozens at the rate of eight (8) cents per dozen, between twenty-five hundred (2,500) and three thousand (3,000) dozens at tlie rate of seven (7) cents per dozen, between three tliousand (3,000) and thirty-five hundred (3,500) dozens at the rate of six (6) cents per dozen, between thirty-five hundred (3,500) and four thousand (4,000) dozens at the rate of five (5) cents per dozen, and for each dozen manufactured and sold thereafter by the Association or ibs
lr>8 ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY. [Jan.
licensees as aforesaid, the Association agrees to pay at the said rate of five (5) cents per dozen; said royalty to be paid on the first business days of June, September, December and March of each year during tlie term of tliis agreement.
3. If in any calendar year during tlie term for whicli said Letters Patent were granted the Association fails to pay to the said FredericTv W. Pendergast at least one hundred and twenty (120) dollars, or if the Association fails to make payment of the royalty as herein provided for thirty .days after the days herein named, the said Fredericlc W. Pendergast may terminate the relations between them created by this agreement by serving a written notice upon the Association, and the Association agrees, on receiving such notice, to assign to the said Frederick W.

HoucK V. Wright, 77 Miss. Reports 476. Vose & Sons were manufacturers of pianos at Boston, Massachusetts; Houck & Co. were dealers in musical instruments at Memphis, Tennessee. The manufacturers agreed with the Memphis dealers that the latter should have, to the exclusion of all others, the right to sell pianos of tlie former's manufacture in certain territory contiguous to Mempliis, in Arkansas, West Tennessee, and North Mississippi, including Lefore County in this state. Houck & Co., tlirough a traveling salesman, re-- ceived a written contract or order for a piano of Vose & Sons' manufacture from Wright, at Greenwood, in said county, by the terms of which tlie same was to be shipped to Greenwood and .|100 of its price was to be paid upon delivery. The piano was so shipped and tendered to AVright, but

he refused to receive it. This suit was begun by Houek & Co. to recover under contract made witli Wright.
After hearing lengthy arguments by opposing counsel the court (per Terral, J.) held as follows :
If the contract between Vose & Sons of Boston, and Houck & Co. of Memphis, were, for any cause, illegal, such illegality could not affect the contract between Houck & Co. and C. E. Wright because it is collateral to it. 2 Beach Mod. Law of Contracts, sec. 1589.
But the arrangement between Vose & Sons and Houek & Co. is en- tirely legal. It does not operate to suppress competition, nor to regulate the production or sale of any commodity. As said by counsel of appellant, its purpose is to facilitate and advance the sale of pianos. It is Vose & Sons regulating their own business, endeavoring thereby to sell as many pianos as possible, and on the best terms for themselves and their customers. Instead of having an agency in every county in North Mississippi, wliicli might be burdensome, or perhaps ruinous to their business, they have an agent in a trade centre, Memphis, where they think they can conduct their business to advantage; and the Memphis agent Co^nvasses the territory assigned to them, for the sale of their pianos, and when one is ordered they become responsible for the price of it.
The Memphis house could not afford to take an agency, and send out canvassers for the sale of the pianosi, if they were to be met everywhere by other agents of Vose & Sons engaged in competition with them in the same business, and ao the arrangement they make is mutually advanta- geous to both parties, and gives equal opportunities for all persons to pur- chase Vose & Sons pianos, and upon the most reasonable terms.
The legislature, by the chapter on trusts and combines, did not intend to debar a person from conducting his own private business according to his own judgment. Indeed there is no law, federal or state, that re- quires a person to sell his goods, against his will, to any other person, or to send agents abroad to seek business, or even to compel him to employ agents inthe conduct of his business. These are matters of private judgment and discretion, which belong to every citizen by the laws of nature; they are rights inlaerent in every freeman, which no human law can rightly super- sede or impair.
Thrj plaintiff below by his evidence before the court entitled himself to a judgment, and the contentions of the defendant are without merit.

To His Excellency David I. Walsh, Governor, State House, Boston.
Dear Sir: — In compliance with your request for an inves- tigation by this commission relative to the number of alien immigrants in the charitable, insane and penal institutions of the State who were less than three years in the country at the time of their admittance to such institutions, we beg to submit the following report: —
1. In practically every institution inmates were found who had been in .the country less than three years at the time of their commitment.
2. At the institutions no definite information is available as tn tlie number of these deportable aliens, as no official record is kept of the date of landing, name of ship, etc. The method pursued at the State Infirmary at Tewksbury for obtaining information for this report was as follows: the superintendent of the infirmary was interviewed, and from such records as he had and by personal interviews with the inmates, 114 inmates were found in the institution, all of whom had been in the country less than three years and many less than one year at the time they

NOTE.
This volume has been designated the " Massachusetts Volun- teer Mihtia in the War of 1812." This was done in error, because by law the active militia of Massachusetts at the pres- ent day is so designated. During the War of 1812-14 the mihtia was simply called "Massachusetts Militia," and it should have been so termed in this volume.

The Adjutant General's Office, State House, Boston, April 5, 1913.
Brig. Genl. Gardner W. Pearson, The Adjutant General of Massachusetts.
General : — In accordance with the foregoing resolve I received instructions to plan and compile, in proper form for publication, the records of the Massa- chusetts Volunteer Militia who responded to the call of the Governor of Massa- chusetts to suppress a threatened invasion during the War of 1812-14.
In the early part of May, 1912, I submitted for your approval the plan that was to be adopted in completing the work, and received final instructions to com- mence. The work being especially of a laborious kind, with your consent I called to my assistance Mrs. Ruth M. Bruce, clerk for the Service Schools, M. V. M., and Miss Mabel L. Cook, clerk in the indexing division of the archives of this office. The work during the whole year was done entirely outside of office hours, for the reason that the numerous interruptions that fall to my lot in my duties made it absolutely essential that correctness could only be assured in that way. No attempt has been made to make records or correct them, such as spelling, etc., except in cases where the ink is fading and the names are almost obliterated ; then efforts were made to supply the missing letters in accordance with what the names might have been; for example, the name Abbott, Abott, Abbot; the same with Barrett, Barret, Barett; also Clap, Clapp; Prescott, Prescot, etc.
The sources from which the records were obtained are unknown to this office other than that they were furnished during the term of office of Gen. A. Hun Berry, Adjutant General of Massachusetts in 1881, and accepted by him as com- ing from "reliable sources," the party furnishing them being Mr. Z. K. Harmon of Portland, Me.
Annexed will be found extracts pertaining to the actions of the British along the Massachusetts coast, from B. J. Lossing's "Pictorial Field Book of the War of 1812," pages 888 to 904; Williamson's "History of Maine;" Wheeler's "Cas- tine. Past and Present;" Akin's "History of Halifax City," and Murdoch's "His- tory of Nova Scotia."

Historical Narrative.
"New England experienced ver\- little actual war within its borders, yet it felt its pressure heavily in the paralysis of its peculiar industries, the continual drain upon its wealth of men and money, and the wasting excitement caused by constantly impending menaces and a sense of insecurity. From the spring of 1813, until the close of the contest, British squadrons were hovering along our coasts, and threatening the destruction of our maritime cities and villages. The year 1814 was a specially trying one for New England. The British government had determined and prepared at the beginning of that year, to make the campaign a vigorous, sharp and decisive one on land and sea.
"Early in June the enemy commenced depredations on the coasts of Massachusetts. On the 13th a detachment of two hundred men in six barges, were sent from the SUPERB and NIMROD, then lying in Buzzard's Bay, to destroy the shipping at Wareham. The elevated rocky neck at the mouth of the Narrows concealed the approach of the barges, and the inhabitants were taken by surprise. The enemy fired a ship, brig, and several smaller vessels. The ship was partially saved, and so also was a cotton factory, which was set on fire by a congreve rocket. The estimated value of the loss was $40,000. Quite a number of the leading inhabitants were seized and carried away as hostages, so as to prevent the militia from firing on the barges. These were released when the barges arrived at their vessels. Similar destruction was inflicted at Scituate, and at Orleans. Sometimes the militia would meet the marauders and drive them away. At Orleans a sharp skirmish between the barges and the militia took place, wherein the enemy lost one killed and two wounded, besides nine taken prisoners at Yarmouth, where they had drifted on shore in a schooner laden with salt, which they had captured at Orleans.
"On the 16th of June the BULWARK, 74, Captain Milne, carrying about ninety guns, anchored off the mouth of Saco River, in Maine, and her commander sent one hundred and fifty armed men, in five large boats to destroy property on the Neck belonging to Captain Thomas Cutts. That gentleman met them with a white flag, and proposed a money commutation. The matter was referred to Captain Milne, who soon afterward came ashore in his gig. He assured Cutts that he had positive orders to destroy, and could not spare. The torch was then applied, and two vessels (one finished, the other on the stocks), valued at $15,000, were destroyed, and another one taken away, which the owner afterward ransomed for $6,000. They also plundered Mr. Cutts' store of goods to the amount of $2,000.
"At about the same time the NIMROD and LA HOGUE were blockading New Bedford and Fair Haven. Other places were menaced and some were attacked.
" Early on the morning of September 8th, the barges from the LEANDER, Sir George Coflier, landefl some seventy men at Sandy Baj- in Gloucester; a dense fog favoring them, the sentinel on

the small fort was surprised, before an alarm could be given; they took the officer and ten privates of Capt. Haskell's company, prisoners, spiked the guns, set the guard-house on fire, and retreated to their boats. Meantime the alarm bell was rung, and the militia assembled, but not in time or sufficient numbers to obstruct their retreat. One of the barges after hauling off, commenced a fire on the houses, and more particularly at the meeting-house bell which was ringing, in order, as the officer said with an oath, 'to stop that church music'; the recoil of the gun caused the barge to spring a leak, and those who were in her were obliged to swim ashore, and by this means five of the privates who were taken in the fort were re-captured, and thirteen of the enemy were taken prisoners.
"As late as December 27th, 1814, the British brig NIMROD, Capt. , sixteen
guns, came to anchor in Falmouth harbor, and sent a boat on shore with a flag of truce and a message to the officers of the town, demanding the field-pieces belonging to the Artillery Company, and, in case of refusal, threatening to fire upon the town. This was considered a mere ruse, to first get possession of their onh' means of defence, and then to land and help themselves to such supplies as they might want, and then plunder and destroy as they had done at other places, when once in their power. It is reported that the town officers called in Capt. Weston Jenkins, of the Artillery Company, and referred the message from the NIMROD to him for an answer; who at once told the messenger to inform his captain ' that if he wanted his field-pieces, to come and get them '. This was construed by the officers of the NIMROD as a challenge, who at once sent word that at 10 A.M. next day, they should bombard the towia. Of course this caused great consterna- tion among the inhabitants, who at once set about removing themselves and property to a place of safety. In the meantime Col. David Nye issued his orders calling out the militia of the town, and also a portion from Sandwich and Barnstable, who, during the night and early morning entrenched and posted themselves in such a manner as to prevent the enemy from landing, if such was his purpose. Promptly at the hour specified, the NIMROD opened fire upon the little town, and blazed away for two hours, but made no attempt to land; then quietly leaving the harbor, sailed for Halifax, no doubt with a parting blessing from the inhabitants, uttered at least from some of them in anything but a devotional spirit.
" Many of the dwellings and other buildings were badly riddled, and other property destroyed, which was the extent of the damage.
"A more serious invasion of the New England coast now occurred. Early in July, 1814, Sir Thomas M. Hardy sailed secretly from Halifax, with a formidable force for land and sea service. His squadron consisted of the RAMILLIES, seventy-four guns (his flagship), the sloop MARTIN, brig BOXER, the BREAME, the bomb-ship TERROR, and several transports with troops, under Col. Thomas Pilkington. Commodore Hardy came charged with a part of the duty enjoined in the terrible order of Admiral Cochrane, 'TO DESTROY THE COAST TOWNS AND SHIP- PING, AND RAVAGE THE COUNTRY.' This squadron entered Passamaquoddy Bay on the nth, and anchored oft' Fort Sullivan, at Eastport, which was then in command of Major Perley Putnam, (of the 4()th U. S. Infantry) of Salem, with a garrison of fifty men and six pieces of artil- ler\-. The Commodore demanded an instant surrender of the post, gi^•ing the commander only

five minutes for consideration. Putnam promptly refused compliance, but on account of the vehement importunities of the alarmed inhabitants who were indisposed to resist, he yielded his own judgment and ga^e up the post, on condition that while the British should take possession of all public property, private property should be respected. WTien this agreement was signed, a thousand men with women and children, a battalion of artillery, and fifty or sixty pieces of can- non were landed on the main, and formal possession was taken of the fort, the town of Eastport, and all the islands and villages in and around Passamaquoddy Bay. Declaration was made that these were in permanent possession of the British, and the inhabitants were called upon to take an oath of allegiance to the Crown, or leave the territory. The custom house was taken posses- sion of and opened under British officials, who vainly endeavored to compel the collector to sign unfinished treasury notes to the value of $9,000. He refused, saying, 'Hanging would not compel him'. Trade was resumed, the fortifications around Eastport were completed, and sixty pieces of cannon were mounted, and an arsenal established. Several vessels, and goods valued at three hundred thousand dollars, accumulated there to be smuggled into the United States, were made prizes of by the British, who held quiet possession of that region until the close of the war.
" Having established British rule at Eastport, and left eight hundred troops to hold the con- quered region. Hardy sailed westward with his squadron, spreading alarm along the coast. Prep- arations for his reception were made everywhere, ^'igilant eyes were watching and strong arms waiting for the appearance of the foe. The forts at Bath, Portland, and Portsmouth were manned. Little Fort Lilly, at Gloucester, was armed. Fort Pickering, near Salem, and Fort Sewall at Marble- head, were strengthened and garrisoned; Fort Warren, on Governor's Island, and Fort Independ- ence, in Boston harbor, were put in readiness for action, and well garrisoned by Massachusetts Militia.
" An attack upon the important City of Boston was confidently expected ; it was the capital of New England, and the moral effect of its capture would be great. It was a place for the con- struction of American war vessels, which the enemy feared more than armies. On this account also its capture or destruction was desirable. It was also a wealthy towni, and offered a rich har- vest for plunderers. It was well known too that it was almost defenseless. Caleb Strong, then Governor, was, it was well known, intensely opposed to the war; and it was not until after all her territory east of the Penobscot river in the District of Maine, (then a part of IMassachusetts,) was in possession of the enemy, that any energetic measures were taken for its defense. Then a public meeting was called to consider the matter, and a committee consisting of Harrison Gray Otis, and others, was appointed to wait on the Governor, and present to him an address on the defenseless state of the city. The Governor listened to this appeal, and at once instituted measures for the defense of the whole line of the coast of the State, and of the District of Maine. A heavy fort was at once commenced on Noddle's Island, (now East Boston,) under the supervision of Major Loammi Baldwin as chief engineer; a call was made for volunteers to work on the fortification, and the response was patriotic; large numbers of the citizens of all classes and trades might be seen day after day toiling like common laborers.

"The towns of Concord and Lincoln sent in two hundred men in one day, and thus the work went bravely on and was completed and formally christened October 20, and named Fort Strong, in honor of the Governor. "Water batteries were erected, and also on Forts Warren and Inde- pendence, and supplied with furnaces for heating shot. Fortifications were also erected at South Boston Point, and on Savin Hill. As a matter of precaution, to prevent the enemy's approach to the city in case he succeeded in passing the forts, vessels were purchased and made ready to be sunk in the channel, and providing all other means failed to prevent his approach by land, the bridges leading to the towns, Chelsea, Charlestowii, Brighton and Cambridge, were placed under the care of two discreet men, each having fifty or sixty axe-men under them, who were as a last resort to destroy a portion of each bridge.
"On the 6th of September, Governor Strong had issued his orders for the whole of the State Militia of all arms, to be in readiness to march to Boston at a moment's notice, and on the same day some four thousand troops from the several divisions, consisting of Infantry, Artillery, and Rifle- men were ordered to march at once for Boston. These troops began to gather September 8th, and were properly officered and formed into regiments and placed imder the supervision of Major General Joseph Whiton. By the middle of September there were some five thousand State troops of all arms in service at Boston and on the forts and batteries in the harbor and vicinity, and all were retained in service until the middle of November.
" Hardy's easy conquest at Eastport and its vicinity encouraged the British to attempt the seizure of the whole country lying between Passamaquoddy Bay and the Penobscot River. For this purpose a British fleet consisting of the BULWARK, DRAGON, and SPENCER, seventy- four guns each, the frigates BACCHANTE and TENEDOS, sloops-of-war SYLPH and PERU- VIAN, and schooner PICTOLT, with ten transports sailed from Halifax on the 26th of August, 1814. The British troops consisted of the first company of Royal Artillery; two rifle companies of the 7th battalion of the Sixtieth Regiment; detachments from the Twenty-ninth, Sixty-second, and Ninety-eighth Regiments — the whole divided into two brigades, under command of General Sir John C. Sherbrooke, Governor of Nova Scotia, assisted by Major-general Gerard Gosselin and Colonel Douglass. The fleet was in command of Rear Admiral Edward Griffith. It was the inten- tion of Sherbrooke and Griffith to stop and take possession of Machias, but learning that the Ignited States corvette, JOHN ADAMS, twenty-four guns, Capt. Charles Morris, had gone up the Penob- scot, they hastened to the mouth of that river to blockade her. Passing up the Green Island channel they arrived in the fine harbor of Castine on the morning of the first of September. Lieu- tenant Lewis, of the LTnited States army, with about forty men, was occupying a half-moon redoubt, armed with four twenty-four pounders and two field-pieces. Lieutenant Colonel Nichols, of the Royal Engineers, sent a summons to Lewis at sunrise to surrender. Lewis saw that resistance would be vain, so he resolved to flee. He gave the enemy a volley from his twenty-four pounders as a parting salute, then spiked them, blew up the redoubt, and with the field-pieces he and the garrison fled over the high peninsula to its neck, and escaped up the Penobscot. Colonel Douglass immediately landed from the fleet with a detachment of Royal Artillery and two companies of

riflemen and took quiet possession of Castine, and with tliat the control of Penobscot Bay. The number of troops landed was about six hvmdred.
"As soon as a landing had been completed, it was made knowii to Sherbrooke that the ADAMS had gone up the river, and lie and Griffith immediately detached a land and naval force to seize and destroy that vessel, and treat the inhabitants of the towns on the Penobscot as cir- cumstances might seem to require. The expedition consisted of the SYLPH and PERUVIAN, a small schooner as a tender, the transport brig HARMONY, and nine launches, commanded by Capt. Robert Barrie, of the Royal Navy, who acted as Commodore. ' In the midst of the rapine a committee Avaited on Barrie, and told him that the people expected at his hands the common safeguards of humanity, if nothing more, when the brutal officer replied, " I have none for you. INIy business is to burn, sink and destroy. Your town is taken by storm, and by the rules of war we ought both to lay your village in ashes and put its inhabitants to the sword. But I will spare your lives, though I don't mean to spare your houses." ' — WILLIAMSON'S HISTORY OF MAINE, ii., (i4(j. The land forces, seven hundred strong, were under the command of Lieut. Col. Henry John, assisted by Major Riddle. The expedition sailed in the afternoon of the day of the arri\-al at Castine (Sept. first),' and passing Bucksport at twilight, anchored for the night. There was no disposition among the inhabitants along the Penobscot to submit quietly, unless absolutely compelled to. On the day when the expedition sailed up the river, information of the fact was conveyed by express to Capt. ]\lorris, of the ADAMS, at Hampden, and he at once sent word to Brig. Gen. John Blake, at his home in Brewer, asking him to call out the militia. Blake mounted his horse, and late in the afternoon was at Bangor, issuing orders for the assembling of the Brigade of the Tenth Massachusetts division, of which he was commander, and the same even- ing rode down to Hampden. There he found Capt. INIorris engaged in preparations for defense. He had dismantled the JOHN ADAMS, dragged her heavy guns to the summit of the high right bank of the Soadabscook, fifty rods from the wharf, and placed them in battery there, so as to command the river approaches from below. On the following morning Blake held a consultation
' "Immediately after the capture of Castine, the British government there established a Custom-house, or excise house, and appointed a Collector of Customs, who from that time until the twenty-fourth of April 1815, con- tinued to receive entries of vessels and merchandise, conformably to the laws and regulations in the province of Nova Scotia. During this period many merchants residing at Castine imported goods and entered them with the said British Collector paying duties thereon to the British government." — From Wheeler's "Castine," p. 175.
"The funds collected at this port by the British Custom-house authorities were used as an endowment for Dalhousie College, Halifax, N. S." — From "Castine; Past and Present," by George A. Wheeler, A.M., M.D., p. 53.
"The British authorities collected the Revenue of Maine while in occupation which amounted to a consider- able sum of money. This fund was placed by the colonial minister in the hands of the Lieutenant-Governor of Nova Scotia who appropriated it in various ways as he thought most for the benefit of the country. It was from this fund that Dalhousie College was afterwards built." — From "H'story of Halifax City," by T. B. ,\kins, Vol. 8, Collections of the Nova Scotia Historical Society, p. 164.
"The sum of £9,750 was then remaining in the hands of the Governor from the revenues collected at Cas- tine while the State of Maine w;is in the hands of the British troojis. This sum Lord Dalhousie obtained the permis- sion of the Colonial Secretary to ajjpropriate towards the erection of a college in Halifax on the model of the Scotch Universities." — From "History of Halifax City," p. 179 (year 1817).

xiv MASSACHUSETTS VOLUNTEER MILITIA AND THE WAR OF 1812.
with Morris, and citizens of Bangor and Hampden, on the best methods of defense, but opinions were so various that no specific determination was arrived at. Morris had not much confidence in the miHtia, and declined any immediate co-operation with them. He approved of a proposition to meet the foe at his landing-place, wherever that might be, and expressed his determination to destroy the ADAMS, should the militia retreat.
"On the morning of the 2d, Belfast on the western side of Penobscot Bay, was taken pos- session of by Gen. Gosselin, at the head of six hundred troops, without resistance, and, at the same time, the expedition under Barrie and John, after landing a detachment from the Sixtieth and Ninety-eighth Regiments at Frankfort, proceeded up the river. The detachment marched up the western side of the Penobscot unmolested, and the little squadron arrived at Bald Hill cove, near Hampden, at 5 o'clock in the evening. The troops and about eighty marines were landed, and bivouacked there during the night, in the midst of a drenching rain-storm.
"During the 2d, about six hundred raw militia, who had never seen anything more like war than their own annual parade, assembled at Hampden, and Gen. Blake posted them in an admir- able position on the brow of the hill. He had been joined by Lieutenant Lewis and forty regulars who fled from Castine. The artillery company of Blake's brigade, commanded by Capt. Ham- mond was there with two brass three-pounders, and an eighteen pound cannonade from Morris' vessel was placed in battery in charge of Mr. Bent, of the artillery. Many of the militia were without weapons or ammunition, and these were supplied as far as possible by Capt. Morris. Such was Blake's position on the dark and gloomy morning of the 3d.
"Morris, in the meantime had mounted nine short eighteen-pounders from the ADAMS upon his redoubt on the high bank over Crosby's wharf, and placed the battery in charge of Lieu- tenant Wadsworth, first officer of the ADAMS, assisted by Lieutenants Madison and Purser. With the remainder of his guns he took position in person on the wharf with about two hundred seamen and marines, prepared to defend his ship to the last extremity.
"The whole region of the Penobscot was enveloped in a dense fog on the morning of the 3d. The British at Bald Hill Cove had been joined by the detachment which landed at Frankfort, and at five o'clock all were in motion toward Hampden. They moved cautiously in the mist, with a vanguard of riflemen. On the flanks were detachments of marines and sailors, with a six-pound cannon, and a six and one-half inch howitzer, and a rocket apparatus. The British vessels moved slowly up the river at the same time within supporting distance.
"Blake had dispatched two flank companies to watch and annoy the approaching enemy. Between seven and eight o'clock they reported them crossing the little stream below Hampden and ascending the hill to attack the Americans. The fog was so thick that no enemy could be seen; but Blake pointed his eighteen-pounder in the direction of the foe, and with his field-pieces blazed away with considerable effect, as was afterward ascertained. He had resolved to reserve his mus- ket firing until the enemy should be near enough to be seriously hurt; but the ordeal of waiting without breastworks in front was too severe for the untried militia. The enemy suddenly advanced at a 'double-quick', firing volleys in rapid succession. The militia, panic stricken, broke and fled in every direction, leaving Blake and his officers alone. Lieut. \Yadsworth, at Morris' upper bat-

tery, perceived the disaster in its full extent, and communicated the fact to his chief on the wharf. Morris knew the impending danger; his rear and flank were exposed, and he saw no other way for salvation than flight. He ordered Wadsworth to spike his guns, and with his men retreat across the bridge. Wadsworth did so, his rear gallantly covered by Lieut. Watson with some marines. The JOHN ADAMS was fired upon and blown up at the same time, the guns on the wharf were spiked, and the men under the immediate command of IMorris retreated across the bridge. Their commander was the last to leave the wharf, and before he could reach the bridge the enemy were on the bank abo\e him; he dashed across the stream arm-pit deep under a galling musket fire from the British, imliurt, and joining his friends on the other side, retreated with Blake, his offi- cers, and a bare remnant of his command, to Bangor.
"The British took possession of Hampden without further resistance, and pushing on to Bangor entered that village and cjuartered on the inhabitants, where for thirty hours the soldiers and sailors were given tacit license by Barrie to plunder as much as they pleased. The inhabitants were compelled not only to bring in and surrender their arms and military stores, but to report themselves prisoners of war for parole. General Blake was compelled to come to Bangor, sur- render himself as a prisoner, and sign the same parole.
"Having despoiled the inhabitants of property valued at $23,000, and destroyed several vessels, the marauders left Bangor, and spent the 5th in similar employment at Hampden. There the soldiers and sailors, unrebuked by Barrie, committed the most wanton acts of destruction. The total loss of property at Hampden, exclusive of a \aluable cargo of brandy, wine, oil, and silk w^hich they found on board the schooner CO:\IMODORE DECATUR, was estimated at $44,000.
" The indignant sufferers charged a great portion of their misfortunes to the feeble resistance made by Gen. Blake at Hampden. His tardiness, his non-compliance with the wishes of Morris, and others to attack the enemy at their landing-place; his neglect to throw up breast-works on the ridge at Hampden, and other evidence of inefficiency, were regarded as crimes, and he was charged with cowardice and even treason. The clamor against him was vehement for some time, but the public indignation finally cooled, and sober judgment, on considering the crude materials of his little force, acquitted him of every other fault but a lack of competent military ability and experience for the extraordinary occasion. A court of inquiry investigated his conduct and acquitted him. On the 12th of September, Sherbrooke and Griffith, with most of the troops and a greater part of the fleet, left Penobscot Bay, and, after capturing Machias, returned to Halifax. The proclamation by the President, James Madison, of the Treaty of Peace, which was concluded on December 24, 1814, was made on the ISth of February 1815, and on the 25th of April the Brit- ish sailed out of Penobscot Bay.
"Peace, joy, tranquillity, and prosperity came with the birds and blossoms in the spring of 1815, and from that day until now no foreign enemy has ever appeared on our coast."
