New England
The following is from the first issue Of
the Herald, published at New England:
u The present site Of New England. on
the Cannon Ball river, was selected n
the early spring Of 1857. At that time
there were but two persons living in all
that vast territory Of Hettinger county
lincluding also what is now Adams
county, June ~ of the same year, the
Rainy Butte Sentinel was established,
Col. ]. B. Mead and M. L. Ayers, pub.
fishers; but was suspended in about I8
months, being in advance of 'the devel-
opment OF the country.
as New England was founded by the
NeR England Colony association, an
organization of men. mostly from Yer
mont and Massachusetts. They erected
buildings and looked for railroad con-
struction 20 years too early. The set.
tiers who engaged in stockraising were
generally successful. The greater mum
Der, however, sought other homes. The
main part of the Mckenzie hotel (erected
.by Capt. Perry. sailor); the school.
house, now remodeled for the Herald
Office; a portion of the Gardner dwelling
.(the old Sentinel ofice); and the little
warehouse (Col. Dodge's retreat) on the
point overlooking the river, are about
all that remain Of the early buildings.
The church edi6ce was converted into a
store and later was burned.
