Tilden Club, Organized in 1876, Still Active—Exciting Times of Parades and Flag Raisings. The oldest democratie club fn thls teinity is sald to be the Samuel J, Tilden club, organized in the town of Plainfleld Aug. 23, 187, by Walter Paimer, Dr, Frank = Burgess, A. B. Spalding, Chester T. Spalding, Albert C. Greene, George Dawley, Gurdon Cady and'Col. Amos Wittef, all dead long ago. This club has on the anni- versary of its organization each year, for 38 years, held an annual election, ‘belng at present chartered under the National Democratic Club assoclation. Saturday afternoon, Aug. 22, 1914, ‘Willlam F. Curran of Moosup was for the 18th time eclected president. The club unanimously _indorsed Hon. George M. Landers for governor and Hon, E. F. Mahan for United States senator. The Samuel J. Tilden club clected delegates to three conventions that nominated Grover Cleveland, to two conventions that nominated W. J. Bryan, and also to the Hancock and Parker convention, and at one time every postmaster in the town was a member of the organization. The Tilden Marching club was led by the old Plainfleld band, Willls Fen- ner leader, Brad. Tift drummer and F. H. Tillinghast snare drummer. Among other members were Walter L, Palmer, Frank Palmer, Danlel and Turner Greene, Will Craft, Herbert Rice, William Holloway, Milton and Walter Kingsley, John Spalding, George Fowler, Jason Lathrop, Frank Holloway and others. During this campaign the Tilden Glee club sang a song written by C. B. Montgomery of Packer in the tune of Auld Leng Syne: “From Georgia to the pines of Maine, Our gathering forces swarm, And westward rolls the glad refrain Of Tilden and reform.” The boys had red capes and_caps and were drilled by Capt. Edw. Hall. Excitement ran high and the small boys of the village formed a company led by Fred W. Tillinghast, captain, and Archie Spalding, who had a drum, This company held their parades in the early twilight and when Dr. E. H. . Davis invited them to his house for a Ssupper they were a proud and happy group of boys, for the doctor was noted far and near for his banquets, but When they gathered at the appointed time and place the busy doctor had forgotten all about the invitation and 'was not even at home. The young- sters brought it to his attention the next day and he repeated the invita- tion, and made it a point to be on hand with the promised treat. In those days each party held a flag raising in the village, with a supper in Union hall, to which the ladies were invited, and there were also suppers at private houses, and a final one by the victors after election. There were lively political discussions at Tilling- hast's store and even at the Ladice: Sewing society. ~After the November election all was forgotten and the peo- ple settled down for another four years.
