1876 The Wellsboro Agitator - Birthday Party
Mrs. Mary Spaulding
A friend at Chatham Valley sends us the following report of a very
interesting birthday party which was recently held at that place:
On the 4th day of December, 1875, several of the children of Mrs. Mary
Spaulding met at her home, the residence of the late Wm. Spaulding, of
Chatham township, it being her 85th birthday. Mrs. Spaulding’s maiden name
was Briggs. She was one of 10 sisters, all born in one house in Dummerston,
Vermont. She was born in 1790; married Wm. Spaulding in 1809, and
lived with him 54 years. He died in 1863(or 8). They moved
from Vermont in 1839 to the farm where she now resides. She has five
sisters living, one older and four younger than herself. She has
12 children living, 35 grandchildren and over a score of great-grandchildren.
She has born eight sons, seven of whom are still living---one in Massachusetts,
two in Wisconsin, three in Chatham and one in Middlebury. Of these
William, John and Sem were present on that day. She has five daughters--Mrs.
Priscilla Mann, of Jackson; Mary, wife of Geo. Hall, of Troupsburg, NY;
Hannah, wife of James Brown, of Middlebury; Fanny, wife of Milo Goodwin,
of Middlebury, and Laura, wife of D. H. Curtis, who resides on the old
homestead. All these daughters were present except Mrs. Hall.
Mr. John Mann, the oldest grandchild, was also present. As chance
visitors on that occasion were Mr. Hiram Potter and wife, of Middlebury.
Mr. Potter’s parents formerly owned the farm, and he was born upon the
place and remembers many things that occurred when he was a small boy and
lived there. Dinner over, and a short time having been spent in social
conversation, the following lines, written for the occasion by Mrs. John
Spaulding, formerly C. M. Baker, of Columbia, Bradford county, were read
by her. Mrs. Mary Spaulding: A mother, grandmother, friend,
neighbor, and an old resident of Chatham, you have attained to the age
of 85 years to-day--15 years more than the common lot of man. We
read in Holy Writ that three score and 10 years are allotted to man; and
if by reason of strength they be four score, they shall be spent in labor
and sorrow. But you can thank Heaven to-day that you have your health,
strength and mind, and are a comfort to your children. You can visit
them at their homes, and meet a cheerful welcome from your sons and their
wives, your daughters and their husbands, and their children. Your
grandchildren and great-grandchildren will long remember a grandmother
as one they dearly loved. At an early day you with your husband and
some of your children migrated from the hills of Vermont. You crossed
the old Green Mountains; you endured the hardships of a winter’s journey.
For many days you braved the cold and storm, one child in your arms, and
other little ones to care for. Coming with horses and sleigh, (for
in that day there were no railroad cars to bring you from there here in
a few hours), you had to brave the cold, face the pelting storm, leaving
home, friends and kindred behind to come to a land of strangers, and endure
the hardships incident to a new country, moving from place to place until
you came to the farm where you now reside; and who can say you did not
then endure hardships. The country was new; there were no worked
roads, no carriages to ride in, no good houses; mills for grinding grain
were at a distance, and grain hard to be got at times, and other provisions
not very plenty. Where you now live then was almost a wilderness--the
bear, the wolf and other wild animals roaming the forest while yourself
and husband, with some of your children, labored to secure a home in a
new country. And to-day, at 85 years of age, you can look upon a home your
own industry has helped to build up. You can look upon a country
that buds and blossoms as the rose. You have lived to see the day
when an hour’s drive will take you to the railroad. You have lived
to look upon a people in this your own neighborhood, who by their own industry
have cleared their farms, built houses, roads, school houses, and have
improved themselves, and are educating their children to become pillars
in society when they shall have bowed to the mandate of death; and you
also see a people who can contribute something to support the gospel, build
churches in this and adjoining towns, sustain Sunday-schools, which they
could not have done when you first made this farm in Chatham your home.
And what is better than all, you know that your children have homes of
their own and the comforts of life and many of its luxuries, and also that
many of your grandchildren are settled in life; and you have seen of your
posterity to the third generation. Although your last days are spent
in widowhood, the husband and father having gone to that bourne from which
no traveler returns, your children are left ready and willing to cheer
and comfort you in your last years of life--to smooth your pillow in days
of sickness, to rejoice with you in days of health and prosperity, hoping
that your last days may be your best days, and that you can say with one
of old, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me
to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside still waters.
He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness,
for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me; thy rod and
thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table for me. Thou
annointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely, goodness
and mercy have followed me all the days of my life, and I hope to dwell
in the house of the Lord forever.” Long years may you live to see---many
more years of happiness and prosperity. Your children have not and
will not, in all probability, endure the hardships you have; but while
life is spared them as children of an earthly parent, and with her at her
home to-day, may they also realize that they are children of a Heavenly
parent who dwells in a house not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens.
May they live in such a manner that the world will be the better for their
living in it, always remembering that a good name is better than great
riches. Those of us that are to-day with you and have presented you
with our little gifts, not because of their intrinsic value, but to show
you that you are kindly remembered, by us,--may we go to our homes feeling
that we are better for having spent the day with you. Such a day
in all probability will never occur again. The pale horse and his
rider may already be upon our track. Ere another year rolls around
the death-dealing angel may hurl his poisoned arrow at some of us, and
we be carried to our long home never more to return. May we all so
live that it may then be said of us that our work is done and well done;
and when we shall cross the river of death may our deathless spirits be
wafted by bright angels to that shining shore, to be with him who died
on Calvary’s mount that a sinful world might live. (Tuesday, January
18, 1876, The Wellsboro Agitator, Wellsboro, Tioga Co, Pa.)
