  • PRESIDENT CAROLINE HAZARD

    Rowland Hazard (1763-1835) purchased a half interest in Benjamin Rodman’s fulling mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island.

    In Rhode Island, Henry Smith was Acting Governor. The Douglas Turnpike, now Route 7, was chartered to run from Providence to Smithfield. Rowland Hazard installed a carding machine at his fulling mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown (this marked the beginning of the Narragansett Cotton Manufacturing Company).

    A new community to be known as “Slatersville” was developed by the partnership of Almy and Brown at Buffam’s Mills on the Branch River two miles upstream from the Blackstone River. John Slater purchased the land from the Buffams for $6,035 and enlarged the mill pond, adding to the mill, store, and worker housing.

    At Rowland Hazard’s fulling mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, son Isaac P. Hazard (1794-1879) arrived to work with his father for the betterment of the Narragansett Cotton Manufacturing Company.

    At the Hazard fulling mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, a power loom went into operation. Later, the Narragansett Cotton Manufacturing Company would allege that this was the 1st power loom to be operated successfully in America.

    In Waltham, the Boston Manufacturing Company mill was built (this is now the Francis Cabot Lowell housing complex).

    Also, in Waltham, the Boies Paper Mill was purchased, and was converted by Francis Cabot Lowell into a cotton textile mill.

    Phineas Whiting and Josiah Fletcher began a cotton mill near the present day Lower Locks of Lowell, Massachusetts.

    A WEEK: Already, as appears from the records, “At a General Courtheld at Boston in New England, the 7th of the first month, 1643-4.” — “Wassamequin, Nashoonon, Kutchamaquin, Massaconomet, andSquaw Sachem, did voluntarily submit themselves” to the English;and among other things did “promise to be willing from time totime to be instructed in the knowledge of God.” Being asked “Notto do any unnecessary work on the Sabbath day, especially withinthe gates of Christian towns,” they answered, “It is easy to them;they have not much to do on any day, and they can well take theirrest on that day.” — “So,” says Winthrop, in his Journal, “wecausing them to understand the articles, and all the tencommandments of God, and they freely assenting to all, they weresolemnly received, and then presented the Court with twenty-sixfathom more of wampom; and the Court gave each of them a coat oftwo yards of cloth, and their dinner; and to them and their men,every of them, a cup of sack at their departure; so they tookleave and went away.” What journeyings on foot and on horsebackthrough the wilderness, to preach the Gospel to these minks andmuskrats! who first, no doubt, listened with their red ears outof a natural hospitality and courtesy, and afterward fromcuriosity or even interest, till at length there were “prayingIndians,” and, as the General Court wrote to Cromwell,the “work is brought to this perfection, that some of the Indiansthemselves can pray and prophesy in a comfortable manner.” It wasin fact an old battle and hunting ground through which we had beenfloating, the ancient dwelling-place of a race of hunters andwarriors. Their weirs of stone, their arrowheads and hatchets,their pestles, and the mortars in which they pounded Indian cornbefore the white man had tasted it, lay concealed in the mud ofthe river bottom. Tradition still points out the spots where theytook fish in the greatest numbers, by such arts as they possessed.It is a rapid story the historian will have to put together.Miantonimo,— Winthrop, — Webster. Soon he comes from Montaupto Bunker Hill, from bear-skins, parched corn, bows and arrows,to tiled roofs, wheat-fields, guns and swords. Pawtucket andWamesit, where the Indians resorted in the fishing season, arenow Lowell, the city of spindles and Manchester of America,which sends its cotton cloth round the globe. Even we youthfulvoyagers had spent a part of our lives in the village ofChelmsford, when the present city, whose bells we heard, wasits obscure north district only, and the giant weaver was not yetfairly born. So old are we; so young is it.

    HDT WHAT? INDEX

    At the Hazard fulling mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, where a power loom was in operation, Rowland Hazard retired. The Narragansett Cotton Manufacturing Company came under the direction of his sons Isaac P. Hazard and Rowland Gibson Hazard, who would rename the company as “IP&RG Hazard.”

    Zachariah Allen invented the 1st hot-air house heating system.

    Near Providence, the “Number 1” mill was built on the Branch River in Slatersville at Railroad street, replacing an 1806 mill that had burned.

    The Hazard brothers bought out the last nonfamily investor in their IP&RG Hazard cotton cloth company.

    Anne Royall visited Rhode Island.

    The two Hazard brothers of the IP&RG Hazard cotton cloth company at the mill on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island were joined by a third brother, Joseph Peace Hazard (1807-1892). Henceforth their firm would be known as “RG Hazard & Co.”

    At the facilities of the R.G. Hazard & Co cotton cloth company on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, one of the buildings burned (it would be rebuilt).

    Between this point and 1850 ownership of the Machine Shop property at Saylesville passed from the Olney family to Elisha Godfrey and Steven Clark. Ultimately, Clark would pass his interest on to Arnold Moffett of Attleboro, Massachusetts.

    The RG Hazard & Co cotton cloth company on the Saugatucket River in Peace Dale in South Kingstown, Rhode Island incorporated itself as the Peace Dale Manufacturing Company.

    In Rhode Island, Philip Allen was in charge. The General Assembly offered a blueprint for reform by promulgating a report by Thomas Hazard on the status and treatment of the poor and insane. It became possible to commit patients to the Butler Hospital for the Insane in Providence against their will. (It should be born in mind that this hospital was never guilty of the more coercive restraints. It was able to maintain a patient population of 100-150 while using restraints only once — on an inmate who could not be dissuaded from trying to open a self-inflicted wound.)

    June 10: Caroline Hazard was born in Peace Dale, Rhode Island, to Rowland and Margaret Rood Hazard. She would be educated by private tutors at Mary A. Shaw’s School in Providence.

    June 10: In a hollow apple tree, hole eighteen inches deep, young pigeon woodpeckers [Yellow-shafted Flicker Colaptes auratus], large and well feathered. They utter their squeaking hiss whenever I coverthe hole with my hand, apparently taking it for the approach of the mother. A strong, rank fetid smell issuesfrom the hole.

    Aircraft from the fast carrier task force of Vice Admiral M.A. Mitscher bombed airfields on Kyushu, and shipping at Kure and Kobe, Honshu, Japan.

    Captain Gehres’s aircraft carrier USS Franklin (CVE-13) was engaged by Japanese planes off Samar Island off Kyushu, Japan, 32 degrees 1 minute North, 133 degrees 57 minutes East, and took a couple of direct hits by 550-pound bombs from a horizontal bomber. Of the 3,450 on board, 725 died and 265 were injured. There were fires and there were internal explosions and the ship was a real mess but they would manage to make their way back to Ulithi Atoll in the Caroline Islands and finally to the US. After the war 393 bravery decorations would be handed out, including a Congressional Medal of Honor for the heroism of Lieutenant-Commander Joseph O’Callahan, its chaplain.

As the contents of this originating contexture improve,and as the programming improves, and as funding becomesavailable (to date no funding whatever has been needed in thecreation of this facility, the entire operation being run outof pocket change) we expect a diminished need to do such tweakingand recompiling, and we fully expect to achieve a simulation ofa generous and untiring robotic research librarian.
