Our Cover Picture

The cover picture is of the Priest Bradford house on Meet-

inghouse Hill, built around 1760 by John McLaughlin. He ran

the hilltop tavern which bore his name. It was behind this

house and is no longer standing.

The second and third New Boston Town Meetings were held

in this house in 1764 and 1765.

This was the Reverend Ephraim Putnam Bradford’s §resi-

dence throughout his 40 years as pastor to the First Presbyterian

Society of New Boston (1806-1845). He and his wife, Mary,

raised their twelve children as best they could on his salary of

$600.00 annually. There is a monument in the New Boston

Cemetery erected by his parishioners in his memory in the Brad-

ford Lot.

The parlor, front hall and a bedroom have panelling attrib-

uted to the Dunlap cabinet-makers or their apprentice, Gregg,

who worked in this territory. The dining room panelling came

from the Sarette house on Cochran Hill.

Other owners of the House were an unknown Kelso, John

Dodge and his daughters Anstis B. Dodge and Martha J. Carter.

The latter's husband raised blueberries and popcorn commer-

cially on the Bradford property.

Mr. and Mrs. Winfield L. Shaw bought the property in 1919

as a summer residence. It was then of Ulysses Grant style.

They remodelled it as a year round home in 1937, in the decade

when colonial restoration was begun in this area. Originally it

was of lean-to construction, as pictured in the History of New

Boston (1864), page 123. The Shaws had their architect copy

the Artemus Ward House in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, adding

another chimney and second front door to the off-center chim-

ney construction in the original west end.

In 1964 the home was bought from Lois Warren Shaw’s

estate by her daughter Rhoda Shaw Clark, Mrs. John McLane

Clark, formerly of Claremont, New Hampshire, exactly 45 years

later to the very day of the date on her parents’ deeds,

FIRE RECORD

Fire records are made by people — those who cause fires and those who control them. Your forest fire warden, deputy wardens, fire chief and firemen have, in spite of a prolonged drought, made one of the best fire control records in recent years. Despite a very dry spring, we in New Hampshire working together, have substantially reduced our fire incidence (885 in 1965 to 595 in 1966.)

This enviable record is largely due to two factors: 1. A closely coordinated and integrated state-town organization

jointly carrying out programs of forest fire prevention, training and sup- pression with dedicated personnel.

2. Your appreciation of our forest fire control program and your individual effort in practicing fire prevention.

Statistics show, however, there is room for improvement. Major problems are still with us; (1) the careless disposal of cigarettes; (2) the householder’s carelessness in burning rubbish; (3) the failure of woodlot owners and contractors to completely extinguish their brush burning fires; (4) failure to extinguish camp fires; (5) unsupervised children playing with matches.

New Hampshire has 4,339,000 acres of woodland to be protected. In 1966 we experienced 595 forest fires on this area and restricted acre-


age burned to 395 acres — a fine testimonial to the efficiency and dedi- cation of the men who make up our forest fire control organization.

1. If you must burn you will need a permit. Permits are not issued between 9:00 a. m. and 5:00 p. m. except on rainy days. Permits are not needed when the ground is covered with snow. To minimize risk the best way to dispose of rubbish is at your authorized town or municipal dumping area.

2. Be sure all discarded smoking material is out. 3. Don’t leave a live camp or cooking fire. 4, Most important — instruct your children that matches are not

play things.

TRULY — ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT FOREST ‘FIRES

REPORT OF THE NEW BOSTON PLANNING BOARD

The first organizational meeting of the New Boston Planning Board was held on May 23, 1966.

Eight meetings have been held since including an open meeting on June 20th for interested townspeople to express ideas concerning our cause.

Suggested rules of procedure for a town planning board were discussed and by-laws were established to operate the planning board.

Three guest speakers have spoken at various meetings. They were from the Department of Planning and Development Commission and the Soil Conservation Commission Service.

Discussion and studies on soil and water conservation and sub-divi- sion requirements were held. Also establishing a Master Plan.

Mr. Ed Kinney and Mr. Ray Pelchat attended the “Community Plan- ning Seminar’ in Concord during October and November in conjunc- tion with our endeavors.

The Planning Board recommends the Board of Selectmen appoint a person or committee to be known as Town Historian(s) to enter major events on one or two pages of the Town Report each year.

Planning Board


FORESTRY COMMITTEE REPORT

The New Boston Forestry Committee has spent approximately 16 hours viewing and discussing the resources on the Johnson, Dodge and Siemeze Lots. Varying quantities and qualities of timber were seen. There is some young growth that needs improvement to insure a high quality crop in the future and some mature timber that needs harvesting before it is lost to insects, decay and windthrow.

Also, during these visits an attempt was made to locate lot boundaries. In some cases the boundaries were well defined or known by the members of the committee, others were obliterated and may need surveying if the value of the lot justifies it.

The committee plans to make specific recommendations for the man- agement of each town lot as it views and discusses each lot more thor- oughly. It is felt that some lots can yield a periodic income much greater than could be had from taxes. A timber sale will probably be initiated in the near future to augment the town treasury.

ROBERT TODD, Chairman, OLIVER DODGE, WALTER KIRSCH,

Forestry Committee

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS

To the School Board and Citizens of New Boston: I am pleased to submit my fifth annual report relating to the schools

of New Boston to inform the citizens of the strengths and critical needs of New Boston in its educational endeavors.

The Superintendent of Schools office staff administers and supervises the schools and manages the school district business of New Boston, Bow, Dunbarton, Goffstown and Weare. This current school year the Supervisory Union added the services of Arthur Wagman, Business Manager in charge of the non-instructional and specialized business and accounting services. The school district warrant has an Article that will designate his title as “Business Administrator.” An affirmative vote by a majority of the school districts representing 85% of the students in the five towns will entitle the Supervisory Union to a state subsidy of $2,700 toward his salary. There are currently more than 180 employees on the payrolls of the five towns with 14 in New Boston. The total budgets are fast approaching two million dollars annually exclusive of building programs.

The New Boston Schools have a total enrollment of 203 in grades one through six. The seventh and eighth grade students attend the Goffstown Junior High School. New Boston students attend Goffstown High School except for those completing their education in high schools in which they were enrolled prior to the signing of the long-term contract with Goffstown two years ago. It was necessary to institute a second classroom in the former high school this year and a third additional room is anticipated for the 1967-68 school year.

The distribution of students attending public schools is as follows:

Unit I Grade 1 20

Unit II Grade 1 20 Former High School Grade 2 30 Former High School Grade 3 30 New Boston Central School Grade 4 21

Grade 4 20 Grade 5 31 Grade 6 31

Total Grades 1 through 6 —— 203

TUITION STUDENTS

Goffstown Junior High School Grade 7 30 Grade 8 25

——— 55 Goffstown High School Grade 9 18

Grade 10 23 Grade 11 11 Grade 12 12

— 64 Milford High School 1 Peterborough High School 2


The in-line projections of school enrollments and the census statistics indicate the need of an additional classroom for next fall. In view of the recommendation of the New Hampshire Deputy Fire Marshal the solu- tion does not appear to lie in the extended use of the former high school. The Deputy Fire Marshall states, “ . .. I do not recommend the use of this building for elementary school children and would very definitely

not recommend the use of any floor above the first floor.”

Staff

Mr. Warren P. Austin, Jr. assumed the duties of teacher-principal of the New Boston Schools in September 1966. Fully trained in elementary teaching and with experience in Massachusetts and Connecticut he has exhibited a professional manner in working with the students, teachers, parents and administration for quality education for all New Boston students. Additional new staff members include Mrs. Mary J. Austin, Grade 1, Mrs. Marie L. Lauer, Grade 4, and Mr. Robert N. Moore, Grade 4.

A qualified staff with a low annual turnover is basic to a sound educational program. It allows for a minimum of interruption of a coordinated educational effort during the period of the pupil’s enrollment in a school system.

The New Boston School Board is endeavoring to provide satisfactory facilities, adequate equipment and materials for teachers and pupils for an effective educational opportunity and improved salaries to encourage the employment of and retention of capable and dedicated teachers. The School Board and the citizens are to be commended for insisting on and providing for the securing and retaining of superior teachers for our schools.

School costs continue to increase due mainly to increased teacher salaries, the need for additional staff with increased enrollments and an increase in the number of tuition students attending the Goffstown Schools. The number of seventh and eighth grade tuition students will increase from 55 in 1966-67 to 58 in 1967-68. The increase in Goffstown High School tuition students is from 64 in 1966-67 to 79 in 1967-68. The additional number of tuition students at a slightly higher tuition cost accounts for an increase of more than $11,000 in the budget for 1967-68 over the 1966-67 figure for tuition.

New Boston elementary school students are receiving the services of a part-time school psychologist. Through Title I Federal Funds received by the State Department of Education and allocated for local projects on a state level, the services of Mr. Richard Hechtl, Psychologist, have been made available to New Boston.

Conclusion

The efforts of Mr. Warren Austin, Principal, and his staff have made a definite contribution to the refinement of the educational effort of New Boston.

The School Board with Milton Elliott, Chairman, George Peirce and


Richard Hechtl have established policies to attract and retain competent personnel to staff our schools. The board has further sought to provide adequate materials, books and equipment and has provided for an outstanding transportation system.

In conclusion I wish to acknowledge the support and cooperation extended to the administration by the school board, principals, teachers, pupils and citizens of New Boston as well as the loyal support of the Supervisory Union office staff.

Ten students received complete dental care at the P.T.A. sponsored dental clinic.

One student was seen twice at Child Guidance Clinic. Two students were seen twice at Orthopedic Clinic. One student was seen at Speech Clinic. Two students received vision examinations through Salvation Army

Fund. One student received vision examination and glasses through Salvation

Army Fund. Medication obtained for one child through Salvation Army Fund. Vision examination and glasses obtained for one student through Sight

Conservation.

Four families received help for various needs through Salvation Army Fund.

Twenty-six students were seen by our school psychologist. The New Hampshire Tuberculosis Association and the School Health

Department made it possible for all positive reactors to the Heaf Test and their families, plus school personnel to have a full chest plate at the Goffstown High School. This was a first for this school district and it was felt that a more complete follow-up was done and families were notified of the results of this examination at an earlier date. 135 attended this clinic.

Crest Educational Dental Program was given in all grades. A complete physical examination, including throat cultures and

serology was given to all cafeteria workers. Pre-school registration was held in May with 31 children attending. One student given corrective exercises by the state physiotherapist.


The school Health Department has made arrangements for a dental hygienist from the State Department of Dental Health to carry on an educational program at all grade levels. This will be included in our next year’s program.

We wish to express our thanks to the Superintendent, Parents, Teach- ers and School Board for their cooperation.

1966 Milestones

The year 1966 marked a few noteworthy changes in the

every day life of New Boston. For one thing, we shall miss the

stately grace and cooling shade of the towering elms around the

Common and along River Road. These venerable giants finally

succumbed to the ravages of Dutch Elm Disease and were re-

moved.

The New Boston Betterment Association gets a gold star for

the completion of the beach at Bailey Pond. The shoreline

given to the Town by Harlan Brown and John Conley finally

became “Bailey Beach” through the generous support of towns-

people of the many baked bean suppers put on by the Associa-

tion.

The Acisme Service Corporation started business in the fac-

tory building near the bridge and at times employ as many as

25 people. Their operation entails special work on greeting

cards and electronic components.

During the year two new groups came into being:

A Chapter of Friends of the Library was formed by citizens

with a special interest in the library. New draperies and a

fresh coat of paint were contributed, as well as many hours of

volunteer assistance to the librarian.

The New Boston Historical Society was chartered this year.

The aim is to collect and preserve all articles and data pertain-

ing to our town, looking forward to the day when there will be

a suitable Historical Room where they may be properly cared

for.

Another important milestone was the acquisition by the

Hillsboro County 4-H Youth Foundation of a large tract of land

along the river below Pinball. This will be the site of a Youth

Center and also the Hillsboro County Fair.
