ADDRESS ON THE COLONY.
BY REV SAMUEL HART D. D. AT THE
NEWTOWN BI-CENTENNIAL, AUGUST
5, 1905.

Your Newtown was not the first
place in the Colony of Connecticut to
bear it's name. Seventy years before
these fair hillsides and valleys were
secured as home for your, ancestors,
a company of earnest men and Nomen
had moved to the westward from
Massachusetts Bay to seek a new
abode on the further side of COnnecti-
cut. 1t was for them far journey
through forests and over ridges and
across streams; they went along in the
the wilderness wherein was no way;
and their passage of the Great River
was for them in a very real sense
what the passage of the great River
of all the faithful. They we're warned
by those whom they left behind that
in the bounds of the west, where they
we're minded tosdwell, they would meet
with strange experiences, and that
they must expect to contend there In
the great battle with Antichrist
whose abode was in the ends of the
earth. But they were sturdy men and
brave women, who believed that they
had a call to found a new common.
wealth, and who were convinced that
at safe distance from their brethren
they could put into operation certain
principles Ol dSSOCldUlOu duu SOVeTu'
ment which did not quite commend
themselves to those whom they left
behind. Turning their steps a little
to the south as they went westward
they crossed the river below the line
which bounded the Massachusetts pat
ent in fair valley of the beauty anc
fertility OF which they had heard be
fore. They had come from the New
Town Just across from the older towr
of Boston, place which was soon tt
become the seat of a college and tc
adopt name that should recall the
seat of an ancient university in Eng
land; but when they left it, the Mass,
achusetts Cambridge was still New
Town. They went through the wild'
and came to the sight of their new
home; and there, as those who settiet
above them continued for time the
name Dorchester and those who tool
up their abode little below brough
the name of WATERFOWL, they founded
a new Newtown. In some sense In
deed they might have said that their
was the original Newtown for the or
