Phineas Crandall where A.J. wrote that his father was son of John of East or West Greenwich, R.I. Ref. The writer called to interview Mrs. Addis (Crandall) Green, dau. of Wm. Henry Harrison Crandall, when she was about 90 years old and confined to the Cortland Co. Home suffering from a broken hip. The attendants said she could remember nothing, but found her memory was clear and she talked of the things that happened when she was a girl. She said that her family was all buried way back an top of a hill between E. Homer and Homer and was marked by a tall pine tree. After talking with many old residents of that section, they all agreed she was out of her mind and what she had told was of no value, however, after 5 years, while visiting the cemetery at Homer, the attendant said that while hunting he had come across an old cemetery back upon the hill. Search was made and finally found the exact spot where still stood the tall pine tree and there found the markers of Elias, Avery and a few others of that family, exactly as she described it. She also said that her mother died at the age of 38 when she (Addie) was 13 years old; that Avery had a dau., Marietta, who married Peter Van Slyke; that James married first Dorcas Harvey and 2nd Irene Bennett and gave all the names of James’ children, including her uncle Rev. Andrew Jackson Crandall, so it is believed every word she told was authentic and factual. She was a school teacher when a young lady. 1061.

TOWN CLERK'S OFFICE May 22, 1947
Mr. J.C. Crandall Dear Mr. Crandall:- Your letter in re- the Crandall family received yesterday and I have looked over the records in my office and have written on separate sheets what I could find and it may or may not be of any interest to you. I have known of this family since my earliest memory, but was not intimately acquainted with any of them except your Father and your Uncle Chester, having worked with both of them at Carpenter work, and also I remember them they used to play ball. As I remember your other was the first man in this section who throw what we then called "an underhand throw" with the hand passing below the hip. As I also remember they used to go rather swift and straight and Chester was behind the bat to got them. They were considered at that time a pretty hot battery. All others at that time just simply tossed or pitched the ball with not much speed. I do not have any records of the Towner Family. I knew Stillman and Judson well and the Harriett you speak of as having married John Seys Judd I also know as John Seye was my uncle. My Father’s younger brother but they went away from here when I was quite young. Aunt Hat and Reta visited here around 35 years ago and a son Arthur was here around 40 years ago but they are all gone now. Yes I am somewhat younger then your Father as he was a young man when I was just a School boy but I am no spring chicken now having passed my 82 birthday last Dec. 27th. I have been pretty good up untill about April 1st. and since then I have not been able to do much but I am beginning to feel a little better now and if we can get as much good weather as we have had bad I think I will pull through. I am not making any charges for what I am sending you as it may not amount to a cents benefit to you but if it does I am only too glad to help you out,
Very truly yours //signed// Nathan A. Judd Town Clerk
The following was copied from a Record Book of School Dist. #14. "Known as the Northrup Dist." in the town of Pierrepont St. Lawrence Co., N.Y. regarding the name of "Crandall" as it appears in this book.

Annual Meeting Oct. 9, 1860, John Crandall, Elected Trustee.
Special meeting Back in those years the Town Highways were divided into road districts and men were elected at the Town Meetings to act as overseers or "Path Masters" we used to call them. The Dist. in that section was # 17 and I find in the minute book of the town that John Crandall was the overseer in 1859-1860 and 1861 and that Ransom Crandall was overseer in that same Dist. in 1864-1865-1866 and 1867.

Crandall, like many other boys of his time joined the prospectors in the gold rush days of the forty mines and went by boat to the Isthmus of Panama landing at the Shagrus River, which they followed then by foot over the trackless forest Jungle to the Pacific. He related that on the way across the Isthmus about half of the number perished of fever and insect bites. He arrived in California after a long and hazardous Journey, but found the treasures he was seeking, bringing home same of the precious metals with which he purchased his homestead. While in the gold fields one day one of this brother, Orin Crandall, walked in to camp. Neither one knew the other was within thousands of miles of that section. That night Orin spied an indian peeking cut from behind a tree and told Enoch they were leaving. Although Enoch protested, Orin had his way and when returning to camp the following morning, found the place had been burned and the bodies of the other members of the camp lying on the ground. Orin suggested they break for home by going "cross lots" on foot to their home in upper New York State, but Enoch refused and took the long trip around the Horn. Orin took to the open fields only to arrive home ahead of Enoch. 1384. ALBERT CRANDALL, of Pierrepont, N.Y., son. of John and Lucy (Howard) Crandall, b. West Pierrepont, N.Y. 12 Apr. 1835 (a twin of Alma); d. Pierrepont, N.Y., 1 Feb. 1862; m. at Russell, N.Y. 2 Oct. 1859 by Rev. H.M. Danforth of the M.E. Church, to Juliette Lawrence, b. 2 Jan. 1836; d. 20 May 1898. He owned the place at Brown's Corners an the right between Brown's Corners and Langdon’s Corners on the Canton to Pierrepont road. He left no descendants. Albert was of unusual strength. He was holding a whole skidway of logs when one of the top logs broke loose and not being able to let go of the lever for fear of being buried, was hit by the falling log and fatally injured. Not being able to work and knowing he had not long to live, he went west to visit one of his brothers. Suddenly he became worse, and come back home where he lived but a short time. His widow married again an 16 Dec. 1862 to David Thomas of Parishville, N.Y. They had a son, Albert Hiram, who died in 1899. He married Jennie ----, b. Nov. 1869, now living RFD #2, Colton, N.Y. The writer, while searching for pictures of his uncles, finally made a trip to the locality and after making inquiries, was told by George Brown of Brain's Corners about Mrs. Thomas. He immediately wrote to her and she sent a picture of Albert Crandall, which was taken when he was married and had been preserved in a small locket and although 85 years old, was as perfect as when taken. Many thanks to Mrs. Thomas. 1385. ALMA CRANDALL, of West Pierrepont, N.Y., dau. of John and Lucy (Howard) Crandall, b. West Pierrepont 12 Apr. 1835 (twin of Albert); d. 11 Oct. 1903 in W. Pierrepont (buried in the Beach Plains Cemetery. She lived nearly all her life at their homestead on the cross road from Coons Corner to the Beach Plains Church); m. abt. 1853 Henry Hewitt, b. 1 July 1830; d. W. Pierrepont 27 Aug. 1905. He was a farmer and both were
Page 276 great church members. Mr. Hewitt was a civil war veteran. He enlisted in the 50th N.Y. Vol. engineers. Children of Henry add Alms (Crandall) Hewitt: born in W. Pierrepont, N.Y. 2574. Emma , b. 5 Feb. 1854; m. Frank M. Gardner. 1386. ORRIN S. CRANDALL, son of John and Lucy (Howard) Crandall, b. 5 July 1837. Orrin was naturally of a roving disposition and when not of age went to Boston where he signed up for three years on a whaling vessel. This took him on a long voyage down around Cape Horn and into the Pacific Ocean cut West off the coast of California. His Captain was very cruel and of the pirate class of seaman. Orrin had a mind of his own and resented some of the treacherous treatment from his superior. Orrin was the chief harpooner, a task which required daring and steel nerves of which he had plenty. One day while cruising near same small island in the Pacific, Orrin was placed in chains for some altercation with the Captain. He had plenty of friends among the sailors and they cut the chains, but Orrin remained as usual until after dark. He then jumped overboard and swim to an uninhabited island. He related that he was so exhausted that when he would get close to the shore the waves would carry him back. He finally decided to give up the ghost, then he thought of his poor mother so far away who would be always looking for her son. He made a super human effort and was washed ashore where he lay for a long time completely overcome by his tragic experience. The next morning the Captain discovered his absence and turned back to find him, knowing this island was the only place where he could escape. The arm all came ashore but Orrin was elusive enough to escape their search and finally they took to ship in despair. Orrin remained on this lonely island for three weeks until one day a ship have in sight and by the make of this fire were attracted to the rescue. He was landed in California during the gold rush days so decided to make for the gold fields, where unknowingly he came upon a brother, Enoch, who had made the trip across the Isthmus of Panama and was in the mountains in search of the precious metal. After each had made their fortune, Orrin suggested to Enoch that they go cross-lots home, but Enoch knowing how hazardous this would be took the long route home by the way of Cape Horn. Orrin started foot across the U.S, for home, and after many months arrived home in Pierrepont, St. Lawrence Co. N.Y., long before Enoch arrived. Orrin heard of a place in New York City where he could get rid of his gold so went there and traded his gold for jewelry which turned out to be only imitation of gold, so was cheated out of all his hard earned nuggets. Not discouraged by this, he started for Montana again where he served under General Fremont on his Survey of the Great West. He finally joined a band of gold hunters and when returning with his load, he and one companion were killed by the Indians near Bozeman, Montana, in 1861. His skull was found and the teeth were sent to Canton, N.Y. where they were identified by his dentist. 1387. HARRY R.

(The writer had this record from the Adjutant at Washington but it has been lost). John F. was taken ill while in the service and sent home on furlough. He was examined every 30 days and the report sent in to the government, but the last time the old doctor at Crary's Mills, South Canton, N.Y., neglected to send in his report and the officers came after John, who had just started over to the sugar bush with the dinners for his father and two brothers. (one brother, Lester, was the father of the writer) . When the officers called "halt", looking back John saw who they were and started to ran over the ledges. He received a warning shot so gave up.

Crandall spent his boyhood days at the old homestead with his twin brother, helping their father with the farm. He attended the little red school house at Northrup's earner. One of his school mates was the celebrated author of north country tales, Irving Bacheller. Lester was a strong robust man six foot tall and weighed over 200 pounds. Soon after marriage they started keeping house in the Dan Smead place at Crary Mills, he was 20 and his bride only 15 years old. Their first son was born here, they they moved to the log cabin owned by her father where the 2nd child was born. They moved from there to the old Crandall homestead, after the death of his father, where the next two girls and the writer were born. From there they moved to the Anderson place, between Northrup's Corner and Brown's Corners; their next move being to the Leonard Place at Crary Mills where the 6th child was born. The following spring they moved back on the plains on the road from Coons Corners to the Beech Plains church where the last child was born. In 1893 they moved to Canton where they lived the rest of their lives, owning several places in Canton. Mr. Crandall was a carpenter and builder. While living in Pierrepont he built as many as 40 large hip roofed barns all through St. Lawrence Co., which are to this day monuments of his skill and workmanship. He also built many fine houses which bear witness of this craftsmanship. He served as tax collector of Pierrepont. While in Canton, in company with Frank Gardner, who married his niece Emma Hewitt, he continued his trade of building such fine residences as these of Prof. Priest, Prof. Fosters, Prof. Ford, W. N. Beard, Rev. Payson, the Catholic Parsonage and the Gymnasium at St. Lawrence University. Another sample of his workmanship my be seen in the winding staircase in the old St. Lawrence University building. Retiring from the trades he opened a little grocery in his home at the corner of Court and State Streets. After a few years he sold this and went to St. Cloud, Fla. where he bought a place and spent the last six or seven winters with his wife, driving his own car. While here he visited Irving Bacheller at his fine home in Winter Park. Fla., spending the better part of the day swapping stories about the events of their boyhood, including the popular wrestling matches. Mr. Bacheller related how Lester won the coveted belt at Pierrepont Center back in 1870. Frances Grace (Towner) Crandall, was the dau. of Benjamin Franklin6 and his 2nd wife, Sarah (Gilman Mansfield) Towner; Ephraim5 and Rhoda (Taft) Towner; Ephraim4 and Hepsibah (Amidon) Towner; Benjamin3 and Deborah (----) Towner; Benjamin2 and Abia (Shaler) Towner; Richard1 and Deborah (Crane) Towner. Sarah (Gilman Mansfield) Towner was born in Colchester, Vt. 1823; d. Pierrepont, N.Y. 31 May 1879. She was the dau. of John and Sedra (Hadron) Gilman.

Towner Genealogy A.D. 1686 1910 Richard Towner, came from Sussex County England and settled in the town of Guilford, Conn., on or about 17 Feb. 1666. There is a grant of land of that date on the record of the town meeting, page 10, though the grant was not put on the land records until 2 May 1712; when the town ordered it to be recorded as ten acres "formerly granted to
Page 279 Richard Towner, now living in Branford", marked at the corners by stones graven with the letters "R.T. He lived in Guilford three years and then removed to Branford where there is a record of him in 1689. From whence he migrated to this country has not been ascertained with certainty. The Towner family has been living in Sussex County for generations and no where else. In the southeast part of Branford, Conn. there in a swamp and at the beach a cave in the rocks, which have long been known as Towners swamp and Towners Cave. The grant made to him in Guilford apparently includes this swamp and it is conjectured that for some reason he lived for a while in this cave, but he first settled on Towners Hill and the following year built a house at a place 3 miles East known as Short Rocks and put down a well. Traces of the cellar wall of the house and of the well are still to be seen there and are identified by descendants of his living in Branford. A tradition related in the towns of Oxford, Haddam, and Killingworth, Conn. by descendants of Richard is that he was impressed in the British Navy from the Isle of Man and that after some years service on the American coast, he was put ashore at Savannah, Ga. to die of yellow fever, but recovered and married his nurse. With her he went to Charlestown, S.C. and engaged in the grocery business. Afterwards in order to escape a threatened bombardment by a Spanish Man-of-war, he and others provisioning a small vessel from his store, sailed for the north and landed on the shore of Conn., settling at Branford. In Bradford Co., Pa. a tradition exists among the descendants of Elijah who settled in that county that five brothers came together from England; that two of them Richard and Abraham, settled in Conn. and the others, Gershom, Enoch and Daniel, in Steuben Co., N.Y., Nova Scotia, and Virginia, respectively. There is reason for believing that this tradition has foundation in fact except as to Abraham. Richard and Abraham could not have been brother: Abraham was born seventy five to eighty years later than Richard and was nearer the age of his grandson (see Pineas Towner, son of John 2nd, son of Richard, page 23). The date of Richard's birth is unknown. However, in his will made in 1725 he speaks of himself as aged and weak in body and his birth was probably 1650 or earlier. Neither is the name of his first wife certainly known, but there is a Mary Towner on the church records who likely was his wife. In the will his wife was called Deborah, but she was his 2nd wife, Deborah Crane, who he married in Haddem, Mar. 6, 1716-7. The original town records of Branford still exist and are well preserved in Vol. 2, page 56 of date 27 May 1689; as follows: The Town has given to Richard Towner 12 acres of land lying upon the Hill that is situated eastward from the brook that is called Beaver Brook, and lying eastward from the highway that runs by Thomas and Nathaniel Harrison's field onto Jno. Butler and John Swain’s field near the head of the Furnace Pond; which 12 acres is granted with this provided that he the said Richard Towner do build a tenantable house upon that land and settle upon it within 6 years from the date hereof otherwise to return to the Town again. And Mr. William Maltbye and John Frissbe and John Butler appointed to lay it out. The location is now known as Towners Hill, before mentioned.
At page 62 dated 8 April 1690, is this: He became a land owner also in Haddam, one of his sons, Benjamin having settled there. In the town records of Haddam is a deed from Richard Towner of Branford to my son Benjamin Towner of Haddam consideration 30 pounds, date 31 Dec. 1723. In confirmation of all and every part of ye above instrument I have hereto set my hand and affixed my seal this first day of May in the tenth year of the reign or our Sovereign Lord George of Great Britain King Defender of the Faith, etc., etc. Annoque Domini 1724. The above was written after his will to his son Richard. This deed has been preserved and is in the possession of the writer hereof. In 1882 he found it in the hands of Harriett Towner of Branford, a descendant of Richard, Jr. who kindly gave it to him. It is very well written and eligable. He most have been a man of some dignity and character and entitled to respect for at a Branford teen meeting, 2 Nov. 1692, the select man were instructed to "desire Richard Towner to have the oversight of the youth to keep them from playing during the exercises of worship". The Branford record of births, deaths, etc. says Richard Towner, Sr. departed this life 22 Aug. 1727. He had 9 children, the dates of their births and deaths cannot all be given with certainty. The first three likely born in England. The record of baptism is an indication that they were born in the order named: March 1700 baptism.

Like his father, he became a skilled stone workman. He else spent may years as a successful farmer. He and three of his brothers had the distinction of selecting four Aldrich Sisters as their wives. Of these four marriages, forty nine children (double cousins) were born. For a further description of this outstanding life, we quote from his grandson, Reverend George B. Benedict in a tribute on the occasion of the eightieth birthday celebration 4 Feb. 1890. - "Lathan Crandall belongs to that class of men who laid low the primeval forests and bored the hills and valleys of this region to the productive kiss of the sunlight." He has been a thorough man; he farming was carefully and neatly
Page 295 done; he mason work was done upon honor; there was something besides a brick and stone and mortar put into his wells. His life was symmetrical; in young manhood, be became a Christian; identified himself with religious work as a layman and has been a Methodist all his Christian life serving his Church as class leader, he conducted a Sabbath morning class in the Methodist Church, Norwich, N.Y. His long life was one of manual labor and not free from cares, anxieties and trouble, but the consolations of religion have helped him bear them all. His life is proof that faith and trust in God ten to longevity. Note: By Reverend William Sylvester Crandall, D.D. 1468.

He was b. in Trumansburg, Tompkins Co., N.Y. and early exhibited an extraordinary degree of determination in the pursuit of his studies; Thirty-eight years ago, at the very early age of nineteen, he commenced the practice of medicine in Luzerne Co. In this state, six years afterwards, he removed to this county, where he has resided ever since. Having been compelled by continued ill health to give up the practice, this winter he secured a clerkship in Washington, but remained there only a month. His anxiety for his family and his country, his broken down condition and his unceasing attendance at the bedside of his nephew, Norvell W. Jones in his last illness, all combined to render him an early prey to the same fearful disease, typhoid fever. As soon as he felt himself becoming ill, he started for home, feeling
Page 304 that it was his last sickness; he survived only nine days after reaching home. His whole life was spent in studying how he could most benefit his fellow man. Remarkably successful in his profession, be always remembered the intimate relations of health of the mind and the body and considered that his task was but half done when he had alleviated physical pain. he was the skillful physician, the kind and gentle nurse, the thoughtful friend and councellor. The church on earth has lost a consistent and active member. Society is deprived of one of its greatest ornaments. The sick and suffering have met with an unspeakable loss, and he will be remembered and mourned by all who know him well. By Mrs. Mary (Knapp) Brandt. 1504.

Canterbury in danger. Excitement. Expulsion. The advent of the Temperance Reform was contemporary with another great popular agitation in which Windham County took a very different position, and the town most active and prominent in temperance effort especially signalized itself by its most bitter and determined opposition to the anti slavery movement. Canterbury was a very influential town at this period, and was particularly noted for the public spirit and high character of its leading men, and its cultivated and agreeable society. Andrew T. Judson, State attorney and successful lawyer, Dr. Harris, the skillful surgeon, Esquire Frost, the devoted champion of temperance, Rufus Adams, with his fund of dry humor, George S. White, with his strong character and multifarious knowledge, Luther Paine, John Francis, Thomas and Stephen Coit, Samuel L. Hough, all solid men interested in public affairs -- had their homes at or near Canterbury Green, and gave tone and prominence to the town. Few country towns could boast such social attractions. Dr. Harris was one of the most genial and hospitable of men, and his new model house with its rare appendage of a conservatory and
Page 307 choice flower garden, was the wonder of all the County. Mrs. Harris had inherited the social characteristics of her distinguished father, General Moses Cleveland, and received their unnumbered guests with all his ease and heartiness. A handsome new house had been also built by Mr. Judson, in which much company was entertained, although it was said that Mrs. Judson as a Windham lady assumed superiority over her neighbors. Her husband, who liked to rally her upon this weakness, once called her down to the parlor to receive a Windham visitor, and most blandly presented to her an intrusive frog, which had hopped into the hall. His own tact and courtesy made ample amends for his wife's reputed deficiencies. Pleasant familiar intercourse was maintained among the village residents. All united with uncommon unanimity in plans for village improvement and public benefit, and it was in carrying out one of these projects that they struck upon the rock which foundered them. The school question was one in which Canterbury felt great interest. Her young people sought education at home or abroad, and an unusual number of young girls then growing up in the village families awakened parental solicitude. The proposition of Miss Prudence Crandall to open a young ladies’ boarding school at Canterbury Green was received with much favor. A large house left vacant by the death of Esquire Paine was secured for her, and in the autumn of 1831 the school was opened under the most favorable auspices. A goodly number of young ladies from the best families in town were enrolled as pupils. Messrs. Judson, Harris, Frost, Adams, Hough, Packer, Kinne, and Reverend Dennis Platt, were constituted a board of visitors, and bare most flattering testimony to the character of the School and the ability of its teacher. The cordiality and friendliness of her reception were gratefully acknowledged by Miss Crandall, her relations with pupils and patrons was most agreeable and harmonious, and it seemed likely that this much needed institution would become permanently established. Circulars were sent out commanding it to public patronage, scholars came from neighboring towns and even from distant cities, and everything was going on pleasantly and prosperously when--a crash came. Without premonition or warning, before the patrons of the school had dreamed of any real danger, a new element had been introduced, a change of base effected, and their daughters dismissed from school to make way for negroes! Was it strange that the community should flame out in indignation? The causes that led to this revolution are thus detailed by Miss Crandall: The reason for changing my school of white pupils for a school for colored pupils is as follows: I had a nice colored girl, now Mrs. Charles Harris, as help in my family; and her intended husband regularly received The Liberator. The girl took the paper from the office and loaned it to me. In that the condition of the colored people both slaves and free was truthfully portrayed, the double dealing and manifest deception of the Colonization Society were faithfully exposed, and the question of Immediate Emancipation of the millions of slaves in the United States boldly advocated. Having been taught from early childhood the sin of slavery, my sympathies were greatly aroused. Sarah Harris, a respectable young women and a member of the church (now Mrs. Fairweather, and sister to the before named intended husband), called often to see her friend Marcia, my family assistant. In some of her calls I ascertained that she wished to attend my school and board at her own father’s house at some little distance from the village. I allowed her to enter as one of my pupils. By this act I gave great offence. The wife of an Episcopal clergyman who lived in the village told me that if I continued that colored girl in my school it could not be sustained. I replied to her, that it might sink, then, for I should not turn her out! I very soon found that some of my school would leave not to return if the colored girl was retained. Under these circumstances I made up my mind that if it were possible I would teach colored girls exclusively. I made the attempt, and the result if before the public." (From a Private letter, May 15, 1869.) Before acting upon this decision, Miss Crandall consulted with leading Abolitionists in Boston and New York, who gladly pledged their cooperation and assistance. Had she also consulted her generous friends and patrons in Canterbury, or even given them notice of her intentions, they would have had less ground of complaint, but their indignation when the proposed change in the complexion of the school was suddenly announced to them was greatly heightened by what they deemed an inexcusable breech of good faith in one they had so encouraged and befriended. As soon as the young ladies took to their several homes the news of their dismissal to make room "for young ladies and little misses of color," Messrs. Rufus Adams, Frost, Fenner and Harris visited Miss Crandall and endeavored to persuade her "to give up her project so far as Canterbury was concerned," but found all argument and persuasion useless. Having made up her mind to this step from a clear conviction of her duty to the colored race, nothing could change her. The people of Canterbury saw to their supreme horror and consternation that this popular school in which they had taken so much pride was to be superseded by something so anomalous and phenomenal that it could hardly be comprehended. A public meeting of citizens was at once called and the previous visitors delegated to convey their sentiments and wishes to Miss Crandall. They found her as before, firm as a rock. Esquire Frost, as spokesman of the committee, "in, a most kind and affecting manner" to convince her of the impropriety and injustice of the proposed measure, and delicately hinted at the danger that might ensue from "these leveling principles and intermarriage between the whites and blacks." "Mosses had a black wife," bluntly replied the lady, opening to the prophetic eye dark visions of forthcoming amalgamation and disorder. Reports of these unsatisfactory interviews increased the pervading excitement to actual frenzy. The people of the town with scarce an exception were united in horrified antipathy to the colored school and a determination to prevent its opening. South of Dixie's line, Judge Lynch would have probably soon have settled the matter, but this Connecticut town knew no better way to accomplish its purpose than by the familiar agency of a town-meeting hastily summoned, "to devise and adopt such measures as would effectually avert the nuisance, or speedily abate it if It should be brought into the village." This meeting was held March 9, 1833. It was a very memorable occasion. Reports of the proceedings in Canterbury, now noised far and wide, brought many
Page 308 from other towns to the scene of action. Mr. Samuel J. May, who drove over with Mr. Benson from Brooklyn to aid and support Miss Crandall, found the village in furious excitement, and was warned of personal danger, but the lady who had excited all this commotion was still "resolved and tranquil." By the advice of Mr. May and Arnold Buffum--agent of the Anti slavery Society who had also come to the rescue -- Miss Crandall consented to remove her school to some less public part of the town if her opponents would take her house and cease to molest her. Armed with this proposal and power to negotiate a compromise, Messrs. Way and Buffum repaired to the meeting-house at the hour appointed, and with difficulty made their way through the crowded aisle to a seat near the moderator. A strange spectacle greeted them--the great house filled to its utmost capacity with hundreds of anxious, angry citizens intent to devise some scheme of escape from the crushing calamity of "a school of nigger girls". The "prodigious descent of devils" record by Cotton Mather could not have inspired more preternatural dread and horror. After the reading of the warning by the moderator, Judge Adams offered the following resolutions: "Whereas, It hath been publicly announced that a school is to be opened in this town, on the first Monday of April next, using the language of the advertisement, "for young ladies and little misses of color," or in other words for the people of color, the obvious tendency of which would be to collect within the town of Canterbury large numbers of persons from other States whose characters and habits might be various and unknown to us, thereby rendering insecure the persons, property and reputations of our citizens. Under such circumstances our silence might be construed into an approbation of the project; Thereup, Resolved, That the locality of a school for the people of color at any place within the limits of this town, for the admission of persons of foreign jurisdiction, meets with our unqualified disapprobation, and it is to be understood, that the inhabitants of Canterbury protest against it in the most earnest manner. Resolved, That a committee be now appointed, to be composed of the Civil Authority and Selectmen, who shall make known to the person, contemplating the establishment of said school, the sentiments and objections entertained by this meeting in reference to said school -- pointing out to her the injurious effects and incalculable evils resulting from such an establishment within this town, and persuade her to abandon the project." Messrs. Adams and Judson supported these resolutions with great earnestness and vehemence, filling their hearers "with the apprehension that a dire calamity was impending over them. That Miss Crandall was the author or instrument of it; that there were powerful conspirators engaged with her in the plot; and that the people of Canterbury should he roused by every consideration of self-preservation as well as self respect to prevent the accomplishment of the design." Others with much warmth urged the resolutions; but Mr. Geoge S. White, who alone attempted to oppose them, was frequently, interrupted by calls to order, and his proposal to assist in the purchase of Miss Crandall’s house received no attention. Messrs, May and Buffum then stepped forward with Miss Crandall's letter, authorizing them to speak and act in her behalf, where upon Mr. Judson broke forth with greater violence then before, accusing them of insulting the town by this interference, while other excited citizens gathered around them, and with "fists doubled in their faces" poured out tirades of wrath against Miss Crandall and her accomplices, threatening the utmost penalty of the law if they dared to open their lips, if not a more immediate vengeance. Thus effectually silenced the gentlemen sat down, and the resolutions were presented and passed by unanimous votes, but the instant of adjournment Mr. May sprang upon his seat and besought the audience to listen to a plain statement of the circumstances that had led Miss Crandall to take this step, and the true character of the proposed school. Mr. Buffum followed with a few impressive words upon the great question at issue and might have gained a hearing but the more violent leaders drove the people from the meetinghouse with cries of "out," "out," and the society committee ordered the speakers to leave and closed the doors against them. Five days after the meeting a formidable array of town officers presented the Resolutions "in a formal and becoming manner," and earnestly besought Miss Crandall to relinquish her scheme, "responsible individuals offering and urging upon her the sum she had paid for the house upon condition that she would abandon the proposed school." This she positively declined though willing to remove to a less public location and went on her way making preparation for her pupils, "with a firmness of design and a decision of action worthy the holiest cause." On the appointed day the school actually began. Some ten or twelve quiet, harmless little colored girls or young ladies, from the very best colored families in the northern cities, had found their way to Canterbury, and were receiving instruction from Miss Crandall. If the Canterbury people had quietly accepted the situation and left then in peace the difficulty would soon have ended. Even if the children had remained they would have given them little annoyance. Twenty Indian lads were received into Plainfield Academy a few years later, and few outside the village had ever heard of them. But much submission at that date was entirely out of the question. The sudden outburst of the Abolition movement and the unscrupulous audacity of its leaders had frightened people out of their senses. The Crandall school was an outgrowth of Abolitionism. At a later town meeting it was placed on record, "That the establishment or rendezvous falsely denominated a school was designed by its projectors as the theatre, as the place to promulgate their disgusting doctrines of amalgamation, and their pernicious sentiments of subverting the Union. Their pupils were to have been congregated here from all quarters under the false pretence of educating them, but really to "scatter fire-brands, arrows and death among brethren of our own blood." With such suspicious and apprehensions it to not surprising that the people of Canterbury should use their utmost endeavors to suppress and crush out this obnoxious institution, especially, when to terror of Abolition aim and effort was added a sense of personal injury and a very natural desire "to have their own way." "Every argumentative effort" having failed them, they were forced to resort to other measures. The oft-read lesson, in the spelling-book came home with peculiar emphasis when neither words nor grass would answer they were
Page 309 forced to try what virtue there was in stones." If these stones could have been thrown by lawful authority they would have much preferred it, but the legal state armory was wholly inadequate to the occasion, legislation in Connecticut having hitherto always aimed to build up schools and protect women and children. The old pauper and vagrant law was however pressed into service and a warrant served upon Ann Eliza Hammond of Providence, warning, her out of town unless hermaintenance was guaranteed, "to be whipped on the naked body not exceeding ten stripes" in default of satisfaction or departure. Meanwhile Andrew T. Judson, William Lester, Chester Lyon, Rufus Adams, Salomon Paine, Andrew Harris, Ashael Bacon, George S. White, Daniel Packer and Isaac Backus, were appointed agents by the town to draw up and circulate a petition to be laid before the General Assembly, "deprecating the evil consequences of bringing from other states and other towns people of color for any purpose, and more especially for the purpose of disseminating the principles and doctrines opposed to the benevolent colonizing system" and praying it to enact laws to prevent this evil. Inhabitants of other towns were also requested to prefer "petitions for the same laudable object." While waiting for legal power to break up the school, Canterbury did its best to make scholars and teacher uncomfortable. Non intercourse and Embargo Acts were put in successful operation. Dealers in all sorts of wares and produce agreed to sell nothing to Miss Crandall, the stage-driver declined to carry her pupils, and neighbors refused a pail of fresh water, even though they knew that their own sons had filled her well with stable refuse. Boys and rowdies were allowed unchecked if not openly encouraged to exercise their utmost ingenuity in mischievous annoyance, throwing real stones and rotten eggs at the windows and following the school with hoots and horns if it ventured to appear in the street. Not only was Miss Crandall herself assailed with threats of coming vengeance and ejection, but her father in the south part of the town was insulted and threatened. "When lawyers, courts and jurors are leagued against you," said one to him, "it will be easy to raise a mob and tear down your house." Poor Mr. Crandall, the meekest of non resistant Quakers, was greatly terrified by these warlike demonstrations and besought his daughter "to give up her school, sell her property and remove Canterbury from their imagined destruction," but that high-spirited women very kindly but positively declined to follow his suggestions. The calmness and fortitude with which she met this furious onslaught astonished her friends and exasperated her enemies. Her chief ally and supporter, Mr. May, always found her firm and tranquil, prepared for any emergency. Her father and an old Quaker brought them fresh water. Packerville dealers furnished household supplies, and a colored driver from Norwich took the school girls back and forth, and accommodated Abolition visitors. As soon as possible Canterbury’s petition was brought before the Legislature. It was a difficult and delicate matter to legislate but Connecticut was equal to it. Public opinion strongly favored the petitioners. That peculiar rabies which had transformed the genial, jovial gentlemen of Canterbury into malicious persecutors was not confined to that town. We should not want a nigger school go our common, was the universal sentiment and expression of every town in Windham County. Many towns in all parts of the state had seconded Canterbury's request and would have opposed the establishment of such a school with equal bitterness. Slavery was the unsolved problem in American destiny. The Abolitionist was the fuse thrown among combustibles and the great mass of the people shrank with dread from the inevitable explosion. The Legislators of Connecticut were fully persuaded of the necessity of closing this permicious school, but did not see exactly how to accomplish it. Ninety years before when asked by the standing clergy and churches to devise some means for keeping out irregular preachers and itinerants, their predecessors had enacted that a Minister from out of the State preaching without the invitation of a stated Minister or society should be sent like a vagrant by warrant out of the boards of the Colony, but the civilization of the nineteenth century eschewed this process as too summary and preferred to levy a tribute from the offender's pocket. After suitable discussion and deliberation it was enacted; "That no person should set up a school or educational institution for the instruction of colored persons who were not inhabitants of the State, nor instruct in such a school nor harbor or board my colored person instructed in such a school, without the consent in writing first obtained of a majority of the civil authority and selectmen in the town in which much school is situated under penalty of a fine of a hundred dollars for the first offence; two hundred for the second, and so double for every subsequent offence of which such person should be convicted." In vain did poor Mr. Crandall humbly entreat the Assembly; to remember these self-evident truths, that all mankind are created free and equal, and implore them "not to grant the prayer of any petition, nor pass any act that will curtail or destroy any of the rights of the free people of this State or other States whether they are white or black." "Mr. Crandall," said Mr. Judson afterwards, when you sent your printed paper to the General Assembly, you did not injure us; it helped very much in getting the bill through. When they received it every man clinched his fist, and the chairman of the committee sat down and doubled the penalty. Members of the Legislature said to me --- "If this law does not answer your purpose, let us knew, and next year we will make you one that will." The receipt of the legislative devise for the relief of Canterbury was welcomed in that town by the ringing of bells, firing of cannon, and every demonstration of popular delight and triumph. A more orderly and systematic opposition was now enforced against the school. The new dispensation was thus promulgated in Mr. Crandall's household by two of the leading citizens: "Mr. Crandall, if you go to your daughter's you are to be fined $100, far the first offence; $200 for the second, and double it every time; Mrs. Crandall, if you go there, you will be fined and your daughter Almira will be fined, and Mr. May and those gentlemen from Providence (Messrs. George and Henry Benson), if they come there will be fined at the same rate. And your daughter, the one that established the school for colored females, will be taken up the same way as for stealing a horse, or for burglary. Her property will not be taken, but she will be put in jail, not having the liberty of the yard. There is no mercy to be shown about it!".
Page 310 But while this law encouraged Miss Crandall's enemies it increased the number and strengthened the determination of her friends and supporters. Among many letters of approval and sympathy addressed to Mr. May came one from Arthur Tappan, expressing his entire approbation of the course that had been pursued, encouraging Miss Crandall to maintain her position, and offering to bear all the forth coming legal expenses. These friendly offers were followed by personal intercourse, giving great aid and comfort. Finding that the little band with all its heroism was almost overborne by the storm of abuse and invective, and especially by misrepresentations which they were not allowed to rectify, Mr. Tappan made immediate arrangements for the publication of a newspaper in Brooklyn, "to the advocacy of all human rights in general, and to the defense of the Canterbury school and its heroic teacher in particular." Mr. Charles C. Burleigh of Plainfield was secured as its editor, and under his able leadership the fiery little Unionist took the field and struck most telling blows for Miss Crandall and Abolitionism. Thus encouraged and supported Miss Crandall went calmly on with her school, unterrified by the threats and denunciations of her adversaries. Previous to this she had skillfully foiled their first legal approaches. On June 27, she had been summoned before Justice Adams; on charge of violating a statute law of the State of Connecticut. Her counsel gave in a demurrer to the complaint, admitting the facts true, and submitted to the finding, of the Court without argument. The sum needful to be pledged as surety for her appearance before the County Court for trial was named by the Court, but to the astonishment of her accusers no one appeared to give bonds for her, and they were forced to the disagreeable necessity of taking her to Brooklyn jail, to the very room occupied by Watkins the night preceding his execution. The result of this ingenious stroke of policy was far more favorable than had been anticipated by its projectors. Miss Crandall immured in a murderer’s call for the crime of teaching colored girls made a most vivid and startling impression upon the popular mind. Many who had before blamed her for disturbing the peace of Canterbury were shocked at this alleged outrage, an intrusive, troublesome woman was thus transformed into a martyr. It was in vain that her accusers protested that the imprisonment was entirely voluntary and nominal, the cell a good room furnished with every comfort, that a female friend passed the night with her and both were released the following day. The story of her unjust imprisonment was noised in every direction, and unquestionably had great influence in awakening sympathy in her behalf and strengthening anti-slavery sentiment. The anger and mortification of the Canterbury leaders at having their weapons thus turned against them made them more bitter in opposition, and more zealous in preparation for the approaching legal contacts. The first trial was held before the County Court, August 22. Jonathan A. Welch conducted the prosecution, aided by Andrew T. Judson and Ichabod Bulkley. Calvin Goddard, V. W. Ellsworth and Henry Strong appeared for the defense, retained by Mr. May at the expense of Mr. Arthur Tappan. The constitutionality of the law under which Miss Crandall was arraigned was the point at issue. It was claimed by the defense that this newly enacted law conflicted with that article of the Federal Constitution, which allowed to citizens of each State all the privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states. The prosecution denied that blacks were or could be citizens of any State. Both positions were defended ,with much ability and adroitness. In his charge to the jury Judge Eaton gave as his opinion, "that the law is constitutional and obligatory on the people of this State", but the jurors were unable to agree. In October, the case was tried before the Superior Court of Windham County upon the same grounds and with the same counsel. In an able and elaborate charge, Judge Daggett maintained the constitutionality of the law, and declared that to this mind "it would be a perversion of terms, and the well known rule of construction to say that slaves, free blacks or Indiana, were citizens within the meaning of that term as used in the Constitution." His over powering influence gained the verdict and judgment was pronounced against the defendant. Her counsel then appealed to the Court of Errors, before which tribunal a final trial was held July 22, 1834, when the arguments on both sides were reiterated with all possible ingenuity and eloquence. The Court revered and the decision of the Supreme Court upon the ground of "insufficiency of the information, which omitted to that the school was set up without the requisite license. The legal question as to the constitutionality of the law was thus left undecided. During this period affairs in Canterbury had remained in the same vexed and unhappy condition, the opponents of the school waxing more impatient and violent, and teacher and school and scholars bearing indignity and annoyance with unabated spirit and fortitude. So far as can be ascertained the school was well-sustained and prosperous. The pupils were docile, affectionate and studious, eager to improve their hardly-won advantages. William H. Burleigh and his sister assisted for a time as teachers, and it is their testimony as well as Miss Crandall’s that these colored girls "made as good if not better progress than the same number of whites taken from the same position of life." Miss Crandall's sister Almira, was constantly with her and assisted in teaching, a very lovely, active and efficient young woman, "possessed a great heart, loving everybody and being loved by all." Storms might rage without the walls but all was peace and harmony within. They had like other scholars their "gala-days" and exhibition exercises. On one such occasion, called a Mental Feast four of the youngest pupils dressed in white sang with great sweetness this story of their trials, composed by their teacher:
"Four little children here you see,
Page 311
Sometimes when we boys walked the streets, As time went on they gained same outside sympathy. Esquire Frost and others who embraced antislavery principles, ceased to molest If they did not openly encourage. Debarred by public sentiment and the voice of the trustees from the Congregational house of worship, they found admission and friendly welcome among the Friends at Black Hill, and the Baptists at Packerville. Religions services in their own house were exposed to unseemly interruption, as when the Reverend Mr. Potter of Pawtucket was preaching, and a clamorous rabble assailed the house with volleys of rotten eggs and other missiles. But however harmless and even praiseworthy the Canterbury school may have appeared to a dispassionate spectator, to the great majority of the people of the town it was the embodiment of all evil and blackness. When after all their efforts and months of wearisome delay the suit at law so eagerly prosecuted had cam to naught, and all prospect of legal relief was indefinitely postponed, they felt that they could endure it no longer. Legally, if we can; forcibly, if we must -- was the prevailing sentiment. One morning early in September, Miss Crandall's house was found to be on fire but the flames wore more easily extinguished than the resultant controversy which like the constitutionality of the Black Law was never definitely decided. Miss Crandall and her friends insisted that from the position of the fire what first discovered it could not have been kindled from within, and her opponents were equally positive in maintaining that it could not have been done outside. A very respectable colored man from Norwich, who had been mending a clock in the room in which the fire broke out, was made the victim of popular vengeance. To his utter astonishment he was seized by a writ and brought before Judge Adams, and though the evidence against him was utterly trifling was committed for trial, the enemies of Miss Crandall insinuating that she had instigated this act as a pretext for abandoning the school which had become burdensome to her. But while there were same who professed to believe that Miss Crandall had sat fire to her house no one ever accused her of breaking in her own windows. This occurred September 9, 1834, It was late in the evening, the family was preparing for bed when a number of man armed with heavy iron bars stole noiselessly around the house and at a given signal simultaneously raised the bars, and with all the force they could master beat and dashed in the windows. The suddenness and violence of the assault, and the exposure to which they were subjected, completely unnerved this household of defenseless women, and even Miss Crandall quelled at thin manifestation of deadly hatred and unscrupulous ruffianism. After a night of sleepless agitation, Mr. May was summoned "to the scene of destruction and the terror stricken family." A consultation was held. It was evident that Miss Crandall's enemies were bent upon breaking up the school. In the absence of any security against further assault it seemed useless and fool hardy to prolong the unequal contest. Mr. May announced the decision to the trembling pupils, and as soon as possible they dispersed to their several homes. A short time before Miss Crandall had married Mr. Calvin Philleo, and as soon as she could dispose of her property and make needful arrangements, she too left Windham County forever. "Thus ended", says Mr. May, "the generous, disinterested, philanthropic Christian enterprise of Prudence Crandall." Canterbury's exultation over its downfall was somewhat marred by the method of accomplishment. With the object probably of justifying her course in the eyes of coming generations, an elaborate "Preamble and Resolutions" was prepared the following year, adopted by vote of the town and inscribed within its records. After expressing their views as to the dangerous nature and tendency of Abolitionism, and the character of the institution located within their town "by the combined efforts and energies of Buffum, Tappan, Garrison and May," .... "Resolved, That the Government of the United States, the Nation with all its institutions, of right belong to the white man who now possess them, they were purchased by the valor and blood of their Fathers, and must never be surrendered to any other nation or race of man. Resolved, That our appeal to the legislature of our Own State in a case of such peculiar mischief was not only due to ourselves but to the obligations devolving upon us under the Constitution. To have been silent would have been participating in the wrongs intended. The manner that protection was afforded by the legislators of the State is a sure guaranty that in future should the imposing attempt be repeated here, or elsewhere within our State that attempt would be met with protection to our fellow citizens as it has been afforded us. In the open defiance of the law, of the State, and in the abusive manner we have been assailed because we sought that protection, we see displayed the temper and motive which hitherto have characterized this organization of our common country. Resolved, That the effects produced by such efforts upon the peace of the Union are exactly those which every reflecting mind must have anticipated when it beheld the spirit of oppression and imposition with which this combined force erected their standard of rebellion upon our soil; and when their counsel in a Court of Justice in their behalf declared as a matter of right that they would fix their establishment upon Canterbury in defiance of law we saw more than ever the necessity of the appeal we had made, and now we rejoice that the appeal was not in vain." Looking back upon this memorable episode after
Page 312 nearly half century, we can also rejoice that in this as in numberless other instances the "The wrath of man" so signally subserved the purpose of God and the highest Interests of humanity. Miss Crandall did not succeed in teaching many colored girls, but she educated the people of Windham County. Not only did every act of violence awaken corresponding, sympathy but in the resultant agitation and discussion mind and conscience were enlightened. The law by which blacks were debarred from educational privileges in Connecticut, was a most powerful motor in effecting, their final emaciation. The statement enforced and reiterated with so much clearness and decision that by the constitution of the United States blocks never could be citizens, awoke a spirit of inquiry and resistance that was never satisfied until an amended Constitution gave, them the rights and privilege of citizenship. As the slavery question came into politics it we found that many in Windham County were opposed to its further extension. A large majority of her citizens support the Free Soil and Republican parties. Her vote gave to Connecticut many Republican victory, and her voters were the first in the state to repudiate Judge Daggett’s decision, and give to its colored inhabitants the rights and privilets of freeman. Connecticut's final verdict upon the constitutionality of the Black Law was shown by its quiet disappearance in a revision of her Statutes. Prudence Crandall had two trials and was convicted. The case was taken to the State Supreme Court and was finally dropped because of technicalities. The State Legislature of Connecticut in 1886 partially reimbursed her for the loss of property she suffered over the suppression of her school, by voting her a pension of $400 a year.
1522. Rev. REUBEN CRANDALL, of Canterbury, Conn., son of Pardon and Esther (Carpenter) Crandall, b. 6 Jan. 1806 and d. in Jan. 1838. Reuben was also of Westchester Co., N. Y. and Virginia. He was unmarried. Note: Life of Reuben Crandall. Reuben Crandall, brother of Prudence Crandall, children of Pardon6, son of Christopher5, son of James4, son of Joseph3, son of Joseph2, son of John the Elder. He was born 6 Jan. 1806 and died in Jan. 1838. Both suffered persecution because of their opposition to slavery, and sympathy for the slaves. Dr. Crandall, a graduate of Yale, and a botanist of some note, went south and located near Washington, D.C. at Georgetown in the spring of 1835 to practice medicine and to collect botanical specimens. He did not circulate this literature although he was accused of it, after his imprisonment and trial a pamphlet was printed giving an account of his trial and acquittal. The title of the pamphlet was: "The Trial of Reuben Crandall, M.D. charged with publishing and circulating the publications of the American Anti Slavery Society, before the Circuit Court for the District of Columbia, held at Washington, D.C. in April 1836, occupying the court ten days." This pamphlet is in the possession of Mrs. Samantha Farnham of Farnhamville, Iowa, a great-niece of Reuben Crandall. There follows excerpts from this pamphlet: Reuben Crandall was arrested at Georgetown August 10, 1835 and lay in jail nine months, awaiting his trial. Here he contracted consumption from which he died two years later. His attorneys were Coxe and Bradley. The prosecuting attorney was Frances S. Key, author of "The Star Spangled Banner". He demanded the death penalty for Reuben. The jurors were: John R. King, Nicholas Callon, James Kennedy, Walter Clarke, George Crandall, William Waters, Thomas Hyde, Thomas Fenwick, Samuel P. Law, George Syres, Wesley Stephenson, and Jacob Gideon, Jr. These jurors acquitted him. On Page 34 of the pamphlet, Honorable A. T. Judson, a witness, testifies of Dr. Crandall as follows: "I have known Dr. Crandall from boyhood. I am a representative from the district in which he has lived. His father lives in the town where I live, in the immediate neighborhood. He studied with my family physician, Dr. Harris, and I have been acquainted with his reputation. No young man stood better in society, He maintained a perfectly fair reputation in all respects. Dr. Harris stands high in his profession, a professor in Yale College and a member of the Medical Convention and educates as many students as anyone in Connecticut. I forget the precise year when Crandall was admitted to the profession, but it was about 1827 or 1828. After being admitted he left town and settled in New York." Dr. Sewall, President of Washington Medical Society, Professor of Anatomy and Surgery in the Columbia College in the District of Columbia, testified: "Dr. Crandall called on me last summer for the purpose of obtaining a license to practice. It appeared that he had been regularly admitted, and had been in practice seven or eight years. I had considerable conversation with him, and I thought him a man of education and of uncommon intellectual powers. I think he said he had given a course of lectures on chemistry in New York and he said he thought he would deliver a course on Botany in Georgetown. In regard to obtaining, license to practice, I told him I must see his diploma, later, which was regularly and properly signed." Honorable Judson, testifying again said: "Mr. Crandall is a brother of prudence Crandall. In the winter of 1833, Prudence Crandall, having kept a school for young ladies, immediately changed it, at the instigation of Garrison and others to a colored school. I had received a petition, being then a representative for the Legislature to interfere and suppress it by law.... I told him the difficulty we had with his sister; and Crandall said he would break up the school if he could, but his sister was a very obstinate girl, and that he had another sister, younger, then engaged in it, that he could, in all events, get her away.
Page 313 Harry King, a young man living in Georgetown first started the trouble. He called upon Dr. Crandall and while in the room saw a Pamphlet on antislavery lying on the table. What follows in a result of what this man started. At the trial, this is a part of his testimony. King was again called by, the court and to the question, "Did Crandall present you the paper to take away?", replied, "He did not present it to me, I asked to take it away. It might have been thrown down on the table in the confusion of unpacking, (a box and a trunk). It was a private office and was kept looked. Dr. Crandall was mostly out of doors, collecting herbs which he packed in cases. I never saw but three persons there, Dr. King, Mr. Cruikshank, and Mr. Oyster. (Mr. Oyster was the owner of the house, and who rented the room to Dr. Crandall.) There was no name over the door nothing to indicate a doctor's shop--nothing ordinarily in a doctor’s shop, except books, There was nothing in the windows or in the shop for public sale. I think he had given out, that he intended to teach botany, and suppose that was the reason Mr. Cruikshank and Dr. King were there. Dr. Crandall was describing some plants to them." Later Mr. Oyster testified, "He, Mr. Crandall opened the box and I assisted him in taking out the things. During this time Mr. King came in and picked up a pamphlet and said he would like to have it to reed. Dr. Crandall told him he might. I saw too or three of that sort, not more. When Mr. King saw it, he told him, it would not answer here; it was to far South." Another time it was testified King said, "This latitude is too far South; it won't do here." He also testified at another time that he carried the pamphlet to Linthicum's store and left it here. He did not know where it was; it was lost. Another time King testified, "I threw it on the desk in Linthicum's store and afterwards took it up and threw it on the counter; when the excitement got up I looked for it and could not find it. They must have found this pamphlet afterwards for it is brought out that there was written on it, - "READ AND CIRCULATE". They tried to prove that Dr. Crandall had written it, but could not do so, and King said that Crandall did not ask him to circulate it. They found that Dr. Crandall had a number of these pamphlets in his passion, but he was using them for pressing his botanical specimens. The constables who arrested him were Robertson and Jeffers. They did all they could to create excitement, telling everyone what they were doing, arresting Dr. Crandall and taking him to jail. Dr. Sewell as a witness: "I have no reason to believe that Dr. Crandall had any other object in view except to practice his profession, or to deliver lectures on botany. He left no abolition papers with me as has been reported. A great many things have been said which were not true." The they claimed they had to take precaution else Crandall would have been mobbed. They took it upon themselves to question him-- as was later brought out. The whole thing was, they were trying to prove that Dr. Crandall was circulating abolition pamphlets--incendiary literature. One can see how easy it was to excite the people over slavery when once started by the young man and the constables and the sympathizing prosecuting attorney, Francis S. Key. Dr. Crandall was permitted to languish in a loathsome jail more than eight months before his trial began. This was April, 1836. He contracted tuberculosis and died in January 1838 in Cuba or Jamaica while seeking his health. There is a letter written by him in 1837 telling of his voyage to Jamaica in possession of Samantha Farnham, Farnhamville, Iowa. Mr. Coxe, lawyer for defense of Reuben Crandall charged with publishing seditious libels. MR. COXE’S SPEECH TO THE JURY. I am not aware, gentlemen of the Jury, that during the whole course of my professional career, I ever advanced to the performance of a professional duty with feelings of more intense anxiety, or in the result of which I felt a deeper interest. This anxiety and this interest are not limited to the consequences which may befell the traverser, an individual as much a stranger to me as to any of you, and whom I am not that I ever saw until I met him, in your presence, in this court room. Principles have, however, been advanced, a course of procedure has been adopted in this case, which involves interest far more momentous than those which belong to my individual. Principles which may be brought to bear upon each member of this community and upon our children's children. Gentlemen, we are engaged in the first cause of this description; which so far as my knowledge extends has ever been submitted to a court and jury in any pa |
