OLD NEW ENGLAND.
Newcastle, To-day Small Fishing Community, Has in the
Pest Played an Important Part in the Life
of This Great Nation
~~~~~
Especial Correspondence

II you say to some people that New.
castle, N. H., is place OF historic as
ISOLATION, that once played an import
ant part in the life of the nation, they
laugh at you because the place Is so
small. That compact little fishing
community is ludicrously diminutive
with our present standard Of national
expansion, but, doubtless. the very
quaintness and charm which con-
stantly attract visitors from the big
rushing world is survival Of the
past, or better STILL we like to think
the little town has yet the simple and
wholesome life which made 1t once
a stronghold of free government.
As military outpost the tiny town
of Newcastle has always played part
In both colonial and national inter
sests. Doubtless that is the source OF
it's name, for not only is the island
grit about with a rockbound shore and
buttressed into the sea as IL built by
nature as fortress, but 1t has nearly
always been surmounted by walled
fertilization of some kind which is
part OF It's picturesque features.
There was early built IAN earthwork
with certain great guns" but regu-
lar fertilization was erected there as
early as 1858. There was great stir
in Newcastle when, in December, 1774,
the Kings colors were hauled down
from this fort, and 1t is said that the
ammunition which supplied the con-
tinentals at Bunker Hill was stored
here.
The site has been alternately forti-
fed and neglected from the earliest
times up to the recent Spanish war,
when the fear of an attack from the
Spanish fleet frightened all the sea-
coast. At that time the ruins of Fort
Constitution were again rehabilitated
and the soldiers stationed there made
things lively for the quaint old town.

But only the season prior every one
had looked upon the place just as q
melancholy ruin, and old residents
would tell the story Of its ancient
building in the time Of William and
Mary. The names Of those sovereigns
were then associated with 1t, but the
vicissitudes of its history have each
given 1t a different title. During the
revolution 1t was called Hancock, and
when rebuilt in 1908 the name was
again changed to Constitution.
From its exposed situation at the
mouth of the Piscataqua. Newcastle
has always been not only place Of
danger from attack by hostile armies,
but to mariners at every season its
shoals are to be dreaded. Sailing par
ties know how easily the squalls come
upin this vicinity, and dread the ap-
proach. And yet for years the islands
had no lighthouse. At last the Fort
Point lighthouse was installed, an in.
ner light for Portsmouth harbor.
1t was during the administration Of
Gov. John Wentworth that the first
I one was built, in III. Before that a
lantern hung from the Flagstaff of the
fort was the only beacon for sailors.

quent phrases, appealed to the assem-

burning trains and stopped at Les
Couronnes just as the smoke began to
enter the station from the tunnel
Then the catastrophe happened. On
seeing the smoke the passengers
jumped on the departure platform for
the direction of Menilmontant and
tried to make their way to the stair
case at the end. They were driven
back by the smoke towards the other
end Of the platform, where there is a
white brick wall. There they met the
fugutives from the two burning trains
crowded together and there later
