The following was ithe essay upon the assigned topic of The Founders of Hartford and the First Constitution® Connecticut has no romantic inci- dents connected with its history—just the plain, every day life of the ordi- nary citizen. The study of its history is made none the less Interesting, how- ever, by this simpiicity. The state of Connecticut has as much cause for pride as any state in cur federal U ion. It was here, on the banks of the Connecticut, at Hartford, that Ameri- can democracy : had its' birthplace. The colony was founded by a few brave men and women who dared defy tyrants and declare that that great God-given gift — liberty — belongs eually to all freemen. In 1631 Washquimacut, an Indian sachem, visited the Massachusetts Bay colony, telling of the beauty of the Connecticut valley and.inviting the white man to settle there. Soon after, Edward Winslow made the journey to the valley. He marvelled at the grand- eur of the country, and upon his re- turn to the Plymouth colony gave glowing accounts of what he had seen. The next year various companies be. came interested and made the jour- ney, all of them returning with enthu- slastic praises of the region. The population of New England was, at the time, mostly in and around the The tyrannous actions of the king of England, both In church and state, gave cause for an ever increasing number of people to migrate to Amer- ica. Soon the region around Boston became, as was then claimed, over- populated, and there arose a complaint of lack of land. Naturally the people began petitioning the general court of Massachusetts for permission to emi- grate to the Connecticut. There were various reasons given for this desire to emigrate. The luxuriant meadows, which would afford excellent pasturage for their cawde, were a strong attraction. The claim of lac of land in Massachusetts formed an- other excuse, but one that seems to us both humorous and iculous, If Massachusetts could be called over- populated in 1634 by four thousand peopie, what would it be termed today with more than three millions? But the true reason was political. The charter of Massachusetts granted po- litical freedom to all freemen. but there had been enacted a law which allow- ed only church members to vote. Mas- sachusetts was decidedly an aristocra- cy. Many of the colonists thought this to be radically wrons. They believed in the separation of church and state, and acknowledged tho right of all free ctitizens to govern themselves, One of the chief petitioners in favor of the emigration was the Rev. Thom- of the western churches. Thomas Hooker was born at Mar- field, England, two years before the de- struction of ~Philip IL's invincible armada. He was educated at Eman- uel college during the reign of James and Charles I These monarchs, thinking that dom- inance in the church would aid them in strengthening the throne, believed in the union of church and state. All those who would not conform to this mode of government were called non- conformists and were regarded as ene- mies to the throme. Thomas Hooker was a mon-confomist preacher who believed according to his conscience in the separation of church and state. He settlements at Boston and Plymouth. | by High and Grammar Schools was sileneed fer nen-cenfermity, and altheugh forty-seven conformidt preachers vouched fol his soundness of dectrine, he was ferced to flee to Helland, and three vears later to America. He sought that which he most _desired—self-gevernment. His English congregation had preceded him to America and settleg at New- town_(Cambridge), near Boston. Upon Mr. Hookers arrival he, at thelr re- |auest, agaln became their spiritual leader, In Massachusetts precisely the same conditions existed that had driven him to Holland and later to the new world, 80 now he decided to found a commu- nity where all the people might rule, or, In other words, to found a govern- ment “of the people, by the people, and for_the people.” The general court was at first loath to allow the emigration, fearing lest |it should weaken the Massachusetts | Bay colony and incite the hostile ! Dutch against the emigrants. But after a winter of serious debating the general court teluctantly gave its con- | sent on condition, that the emigrants Sull remained under the legal author- {ity of Massachusetts. # In the early part of June, 1636, & | company of one hundred men, women and -children, driving 160 head of cat- | tle before them, made the arduous but | pleturesque _journey of one hundred miles through forests, over hills and {through _underbrush to thelr new !home. The company was led by that | born_ leader of men, Thomas. Hooker, |aided by his friends, Samuel Stone, | Roger Ludlow, the lawyer and states- man, and John Haynes, who became | the first governor of Conneoticut. The emigrants were willing to deny thém- selves many, luxuries that they might | obtain that which they coyeted—self- government and religious. freedom. It has beautifully been raid of the emi- | grants that God sifted a whole nation that He might send choice grains into the wilderness. | The towns of Wethersfield and ! Windsor had been settied not long be- | fore, and these, with Hartford, consti- | tuted the Conneoticut colony. ~The | colonists were thrifty and of the bet- ter class of English yeomanry. Find- ing themselves beyond the limits of the the charter granted by the Plym- outh company to Massachusetts, the tlers established a government of The representatives to the t general court of Connecticut met Jewtown (Hartford), in April, An act was passed prohibiting the sale of firearms to the Indians. The memorable meeting of the gen- eral court held in April, 1633, was | opened by a sermon preached by Pas- tor Hooker. The text was Deut. 1: was “the choice of 13. His doctrine | public magistrates belongs unto tho As | people by God's own allowance. | God hath given us liberty, let us take {it The “fundamental orders” known las the constitution were adopted at this meeting and went into effect | January, 1639. It is not known whose i pen drew up the remarkable document, | but undoubtedly its writing was in- spired by that great democrat, Thomas Hooker. It was | probably ‘drafted by the lawyer, Roger Ludlow, This was the first written constitution in the history of the world adopted by the suffrage of the people. It was the first upon which a government was based and formed the basis of the constitution of the United States, adopted in 17S7. John Fiske Wwrites: “It was the first written con- stitution known to history. that cre- ated a government, and it marked the beginning of American democracy.” No mention of allegiance to the Bnglish King nor of the company which held a patent on the land was made. It was the triumph of liberty over big- otry. ‘Well may we be proud of that con- stitution and of the legislators who adopted it, men who dared stand by thefr principles at the risk of persecu- tion. Deep Is the debt of gratitude we owe to Thomas Hooker, to whom no higher title of honor can be given than that alrealy assigned to him—the First American Democrat.

They had just | thrown in their lines when one of the | party reached for the bait and in some | { manner the boat became overbalanced and turned turtle. In a moment the | three men found themselves in the water and as it was dark they had some difficulty in locating the island. The water was about five feet deep where they fell in and they were able to walk to’safety. If the boat hal been a few feet farther from shore they would have been in a serfous pre- dicament, as all wore heavy overcoats, which would have greatly hindered them from swimming. The boat was righted and bailed out and the men returned to their homes without fur- ther mishap. !
