In the rolls of the soldiery of the wars of 1S13, and with Mexico, the name of Littleton is rarely found. Among the bold battalions that did duty at Cobleigh's Meadow, however, it cannot be said that our citizens did not accomplish eminence. Were such an assertion ventured, the melon stained swords of Gen. Ran- kin, Col. Moffitt, Col. Eastman, Maj. Thayer, Maj. Bellows, Maj. Brackett and Capt. Bingham, might rattle ominously in their scabbards. There was but one church edifice ; and it is intim...ated by the Rev. E.
