NEW HAMPSHIRE.
Death of Ex.Chief Justice Perley.

Concord, &c. Ex-Chief Justice Ira Perley
died suddenly at three o'clock this afternoon,
at his residence in this city. He had not
been quite as well as usual for few days
past, combining himself to his library and
reading much. His family did not appre-
bend that his end was near. He passed
restless night, but was about this forenoon,
and it was not till afternoon that he appeared
so unwell, that DIR. c. Gage was called, and
shortly after his arrival the Judge died, sink
ing away very quietly. He was born in Box
ford, Mass, Nov. 9, 1899, and was in his
seventy-fifth year. He graduated at Dart
mouth College in 1922, was tutor there
from 1922 to 1925; studied law with Hon.
Daniel NJ. Christie at Dover; was admitted
to the bar in 1927, and opened an office in
Hanover, where he was treasurer of the Col
lege from 1880 TO 1885. He received the de-
gree of A M, and LID. Pie came to this
city in 1884, and although Wing in politics,
the Democratic Governor, Samuel Dinsmore
the Younger, appointed him Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court of Indication, Oct. l,
1852, following the example of his father, the
older Dinsmore, in appointing eX-Chiet JUS
tice in 1888, this being opposed by politicians.
July 20, 1855 Gov. Ralph Metcalf appointed
Judge Perley Chief Justice of the Supreme
Judicial Court. Aug. /, 1855, Gov. Joseph
"A dllDlOIS Tc-dDpoihtSu hAih, anu HC liSie sIot
office until Sept. 1869, resigning few days
before he arrived at the age of seventy, the
constitutional limit. Judge Perley has had
but few political offices, representing Han.
over this city, ard only q few years in
the legislature. December %, 1852, he
delivered an able eulogy on Daniel Webster
in this city. Again at the Dartmouth Col
lege centennial in 1869, he spoke eloquent
y of Webster, Choat and Chase, and other
!lustrious graduates, in treating of the rela-
tions of the college TO the law. As Il lawyer
and jurist Judge Perley was hardly surpassed
in the New Hampshire courts. His wife,
most estimable an, benevolent lady, always
seeking where to aid the poor, was Mrs. Mary
Nelson of Hayerhill, N. ii. She died about
three years ago. They had nine or ten child
rem, three daughters only surviving. The
loss of his wife and about the same time an
only son. undoubtedly served to hasten the
Judges end.

The committee reasscmbled yesterday

A. S. Lermond appeared as the first wit
ness. He had been on the prison guard since
November, 1872. He referred to the fire
principally ,testifying that everything was done
that could be TO eXtinguish the flames, ana
save the property that was destroyed.
Henry A. Willis. Postmaster at Rockland,

in prison, and guard officer during the day.

ers-did not come in his department. Thought
that those confined in what is known as the
'lazy cells" suffered for the want of water.
One prisoner whose name was McDougal,
wanted water one night, Gin 1869 and he (the
witness) gave it to him; another prisoner in
the cells had red and inflamed tongue; seem
ed to want a large quantity of water. Had
told the deputy warden of this two years after.
The order of the deputy warden was not to
give the prisoners water. Warden Rice new
or said anything to him about it. Did not
say anything to the deputy warden about the
circumstances at the time, as he (the witness)
had disobeyed orders in giving the prisoners
in the lazy cells water. Had talked With DIR.
Chase and others about the matter. When
prisoner is incarcerated in lazy cell or dun
geon, he is kept on bread and water.
The witnesses were discharged, and the
committee adjourned to afternoon.

LARRY Steamboats, on the Remnebee.

10 the Editor Of the Journal:
Courage my men"-bottom has undoubt-
odly been reached in this steamboat investi-
CATION. Arnold's army, which passed up the
Kenne5sc in 1915 on its way to besiegc Que
bee, did not cause half the newspaper discus
sion that .'the first steamboat has already.
1t seems to be settled beyond reasonable
doubt that jonathan Morgan, then OF Wis
casset or ALMA, did first ascend the kennebec
in boat propelled by steam-this was in 1916.
The Wiscasset Oracle says that Mr.. Nor
gan published! this statement in the Portland
Argus in lSG0. The first trip must have been
made previous to ISIS, as on TIE second of
June Of that year Morgan's boat, called the
Alph9, Of about 10 tons, was sold at public
vendue" by constable at Wscasset for the
sum of $S7. The Oracle gives copy of the
bill of sale, and says the boats machinery
was taken out and she was converted into a
fishing vessel.
Deacon Edmond Dana of Wiscasset, who
recollects the Alpha, sends me a description
Of the manner of applying the steam power
to the screw propeller in the stern. lie says
her boiler was built Of pine plank and was
about the size of a common molasses hogs
head, into which was fixed a fire box of iron
and an endless chain connected the engine
with the propeller. The Wiscasset paper is
mistaken in its conclusion that the Alpha was
''the first screw steamer ever built" In
1916, John Fitch succeeded in driving small
boat by screw on Collect pond, in the city
of New York. Your correspondent "Dreux."
in the journal of tho 25th, gives interesting
particulars of Morgan's arrival with the Al
pha at Halowel!, and her final ascent to Au-
gusta from reliable living witnesses, but his
''list Of all the steamboats, that have run on
the kennebec" is not complete. The follow
ing should be added Enterprise, 1928; Leg
islat'r, 1925; Experiment. 1927; Lexington,
1928; Hancock, 1888; Chancellor Living
stone, 1885; Balloon, 1913; and Halifax,
1915. This last boat blew up at the lock in
the Augusta dam and killed seven persons.
Mr.. L. Z. Lemont of Bath, who goes by
book, sends me an account of the steamer
Tom Thumb, Owned and commanded by a
Mr. Dodd) which was in 1918 towed from
Boston TO the mouth of the river and cast off.
She then steamed up TO Bath against the tide.
Mr. Lemont also sends me the date of the
launching OF Capt Porters' Kennebec. 1t

hearty thanks.

IF your Ha!Iowell correspondent will look
at the Seaside Oracle of Feb. 81, he will find
there the documentary proof that Morgan
steam boat made her first trip from WiGcasset
to Brunswick at the rate of 4 or ) miles per
hour" in l8lC, mot in 1872 and the same
season went up the Kennebcc to Augusta.
Morgan failed, and the boat which was called
the "Alpha," was sold June ., 1915 by
constable q. c. Felker) in Wiscasset to
VIM. Greenleaf for $500 and was converted
into fishing craft by the purchaser. The
boat measured - tons. She was screw
steamer, and the first that was ever invented
or Construed in any part Of the world. John
Gordon of Westbrook, the partner OF Morgan,
was the inventor OF the screw machinery.
| think the editor of the Oracle is mistaken
in saving Morgan lived in Wiscasset in 1916
and built bis boat there. Mr.. Morgan resided
in Alma, and think built his boat in that
town, at place called Puddle Dock on
Dyers River, that enters Wiscasset harbor.
