But what a contrast between the aspects of the village and the state of society to-day, and its condition and appearance one hundred and twenty-six years ago.
A young lady made a record of what she saw and heard on her first visit to Charlestown, in 1744. It is this : — " When I approached the town the first object that met my eyes was a party of Indians holding a war-dance ; a cask of rum, which the inhabitants had suffered them to partake of, had raised their spirits to all the horrid yells a...nd feats of distortion that characterize the nation. I was chilled at the sight, and passed tremblingly by. At this time Charlestown contained nine or ten families, who lived in huts not far distant from each other. The Indians were numerous, and associated in a friendly manner with Digitized by LjOOQIC 19 the whites. It was the most northerly settlement on Connecticut River, and the adjacent conn try was terribly wild. A saw-mill was erected, and the first boards were sawn while I was there ; the inhabitants commemorated the event with a dance, which took place on the new boards.
