Notes for CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS PUTNAM, SR.:

In 1815 Bradstreet Baldwin of Londonderry, Vermont, built a sawmill on the river at what is now the village of Putnamville, taking advantage of the fall of thirty-two feet.  The mill had a capacity for sawing 100,000 feet of lumber per annum.

Christopher Columbus Putnam, Sr. bought the mill in 1845.  Nine years from that date he torn down the old mill and erected a large double gang mill on the opposite side of the river, together with a gristmill on and machinery for dressing lumber.  The mill was consumed by fire in 1862.  The same year a new mill was built on the same site with a capacity of 2,000,000 feet of dressed lumber per year.

"In 1865, after his return from the war, his son Christopher C. Putnam, Jr., was taken into partnership and the firm name changed to C.C. Putnam & Son.  In 1871 the firm purchased the Templeton and Vail mill in Worcester, in 1885, built a large steam Dressing mill at Putnamville, and in 1890 a steam sawmill in Elmore, increasing their business from 100,000 feet per year in 1845 to 6,000,000 feet in 1898.

"Mr. Putnam possessed good common sense and the ability to carry out whatever he undertook.  Receiving only a common school education, he labored all his life to extend his field of learning, and by reading and close application acquired a large fund of general information.  Although never an office-seeker, yet he held nearly all the offices which his town could give him.  In early life he was an old-time Whig, an admirer of Clay, Webster, Sumner, and Lincoln, voting for General Harrison in 1840 and for his grandson in 1888.

"A sturdy, genuine old Vermonter, who loved his family, respected the rights of those in his employ, and called every man his friend."

-Vermont paper.

 

He has held various local offices, and in 1864 was representative.

Notes for WILLIAM PUTNAM:

William Putnam and his brothers, Joshua and Thomas, were associated together in business in early life.  They had inherited property from their father, and by well applied efforts had increased their stake in the country.  At the time of the "Rebellion" the Putnams were well-to-do farmers and lumbermen.  The year 1837 had seen the virtual crushing out of the rebellion in Lower Canada, and it was during the period following the successes of the government party in which happened the incidents which led to the first arrest of William Putnam.  The second rebellion is said to have broken out on the third of November, 1838.  On the ninth occured the battle of Odeltown, and on the following day the "Patriots" were successful at Beauharnois, and at the same time the windmill at Prescott was forified by a band of "Patriots."  This post was held till the arrival of regulars with artillery.  At Prescott the loss of the British troops was 13 killed, 67 wounded.  The "Patriots" lost about 40 killed, and 110 surrendered.  William Putnam was not engaged in any of these encounters.  Dr. W.E. Putnam of Bennington, a nephew of William Putnam, states that his father, Thomas Putnam, had told him that William Putnam was convinced of the futility of the proposed attack on Windsor, and strongly urged delay until the temper of the inhabitants was better known.  His prudent cousel was overrulled and, as he never lacked courage, he led the party as had been arranged.  The narrative which now follows is very nearly as written.  The manuscript was hurriedly written, and evidently had not been revised, and therefore it has been found necessary to change in a slight degree the wording of the story.

 

 

THE NARRATIVE OF WARNER HERKIMER PUTNAM

 

"My father was only four years old when he landed in the forest, and grew up with the freedom of the deer.  He had but six weeks schooling in his boyhood.  He was a man of great strength and of an iron will.  His temperament was cheerful and lively, and , withal, he was possessed of good business ability.  He was associated with his brothers in business. As each of the younger boys married their share was set off to them. Throughout the country they were known as the Putnam Brothers, and acquired considerable property in the shape of land, mills, and public houses.  When the war of 1812 broke out William and Joshua were drafted into the Canadian service and served at the battles of Lundy's Lane and Queenstown Heights.  For gallant services, William was commissioned a captain of militia of the city of London, and held that position for many years, until the growth of party feeling led him to resign in 1836.  The native and American born inhabitants were antagonistic to those settlers who were new comers from Great Britian.  The jealousy felt by each party for the other was intensified by the action of government in creating land monopolies and exempting large grants from taxation.  The Clergy-Reserve was especially distasteful to many, for although set aside for the benefit of the Protestant religion it was beneficiaal only to the English Church.  Local and profitable positions were given to friends of the party in power without regard for local prejudices.  In 1836 the speaker* of the House of Parliament visited England to lay the grievances of the people before the home government, but although he remained there a year he was not accorded a hearing.  On his return the native party felt that but two alternatives were left to them, to submit to the oppression which bore so hardly upon their temper or to appeal to arms. Without considering the consequences of such an act, the latter alternative was adopted.  William Putnam had resigned his commission in 1836; he was not willing to oppose his party friends, and foresaw that trouble was coming.  During the short struggle which followed he remained quietly at home.  His friends in arms were defeated and scattered.  The officers of the victorious faction were mainly old friends and acquaintance of my father, and invited him to join with them in a jollification at the hotel in Delaware, where he was then living.  Not wishing to make enemies, he joined the party, all of whom knew his principles.  During the evening, as usual on such occasions, heavy drinking was indulged in.  Toasts were offered.  That to the Queen and royal family were participated in by all present.  Then the health of the Governor-General was proposed, and Mr. Putnam hesitated and finally set his glass down untouched.  His exception was noticed by a rude and burly Englishman, a captain, the very one who had succeeded Putnam in command of his former company, who demanded that he drink the toast, and used insulting language as well as denouncing him as a traitor.  Mr. Putnam gave his reason in a few words.  He then took exceptions at the officer's remarks, and slapped his face, at the same time challenging him to apologize or fight, or be denounced as a coward.  Friends attempted to interpose, but Putnam insisted that he was a loyal citizen of Canada, and would have an apology.  He then returned to his home, put his weapon in order and again visited the tavern, and in this calmer mood repeated the challenge, which he left open to any gentleman who dared question his loyalty to the crown.

"On the evening of the 25th of Dec,. 1837, our house was surrounded by a troop of cavalry, the officer in command remarking, `We shall have trouble here.'  The door being open, father walked out saying `You will have no trouble here; what are your demands?'  The officer requested him to walk over to the hotel, which he did, and was there placed under arrest, bound hands and feet, and placed in the botton of a lumber wagon without straw or blankets.  They immediately started for London.  It was a cold, wet night, and although the guards twice stopped for refreshments and warmth, the prisoner, tightly bound, was left to withstand the effects of the weather unsheltered.  His request to loosen his bonds, which were so tightly bound as to cause great suffering, was met with a prick of the bayonet and surly order to lie still.  The party arrived in London on the 26th Dec., at four o'clock in the morning, and the prisoner was placed in jail.  There he was kept for five months.  Bribery was freely employed to procure evidence to sustain the charge of high treason against him, but failed, and in June, without a trail, he was set free. In the meantime, in January, the family moved from the house in Delaware, back to the farm, but on the 4th of February the buildings were totally destroyed by fire, the work of an incendiary.  The family barely escaped with their lives, and were left destitute and obliged to seek refuge with friends.

"A week after father's release, while we were in hopes that further persecution would be abandoned, father received a letter from Col. Burwell, commanding the western forces, and an old friend, conveying the information that he was about to be rearrested and counselling him to fly.

"The family was called together, the letter read, and father said he thought the advice good.  He should leave us for awhile and, in company with his brother Thomas, seek safety in the United Sates.  Their course was by boat, by way of a branch of the Thames, thence by the Thames to Lake St. Clair, and along its shore to the head of the Detroit River, and so across the channel to the American side.  The Thames ran through London, Kilworth, Delaware, where he had been arrested, Wardsville and Chatham.  For years he had floated lumber down those streams, and was well known throughout the territory, especially by the settlers along the banks.  On the morning of the departure, it was Sunday, as the boat was passing under the bridge, uncle and father in it, people going to church halted on the bridge.  Many were old friends, some differed in political opinions.  Father stood up in the boat and said to them: `I am forced to leave my home, my family, and my country, or submit to arrest again, which I would not suffer.'  He would never be taken alive.  He bade them a fareweel, and floated down the river out of sight.  He safely arrived in Detroit.  At Detroit he found many acquaintances, among them one Captain Cary, who still held his commission in the Canadian militia. Cary was an Englishman.  Learning from father that he had left his family unsettled, and of his desire to return home in order to settle them, Cary offered, if father would visit his place at the forks of Bear River, about seventy miles from Detroit and sixty from London, he would drive him to his house and stay with him for a time, and said that he would protect him from disturbance.  Father, with Uncle Thomas** and two others, kept the rendezvous.  The house stood some way from the road, and father said he would go and see if all was clear.  While stopping at the well to take a drink, Cary came out and shook hands with him.  Then taking father's gun, said, `Let me have your gun.'

"Cary took hold of the gun and drew it toward him.  Father said `Cary, let go of my gun."  At that Cary placed his hands on him and said, `You are my prisoner, in the King's name.'  Father stood facing the house.  He saw the door open and armed soldiers come out.  He realized that he was betrayed.  Drawing his pistol, he shot Cary and made for the fence, which he jumped under fire of the soldiers.  The country was aroused, and $1000 reward offered for the body of William Putnam, dead or live.

"During the night father came upon an Idian camp.  He was well known to the Indians, and spoke their language, and to them he told his story. Knowing how impossible it would be to cross the lines, the Indians conducted him to a hidingplace, where they faithfully protected and fed him for thirty days.  He was then taken to the Banks of the Huron River, the door of an old barn wrenched off and he was soon afloat.  He safely effected the crossing [of one mile] and was again safe on American soil, near the town of Palmer.  He soon went on to Detroit.  He knew that he was a ruined man, and could not hope for pardon or toleration from the government.  Cary lived three days, during which time he confessed that he had been promised promotion if he could arrest Putnam and his friends with arms in their hands, which indeed he very nearly accomplished by his treacherous act.

"After the second arrival at Detroit, father entered heartily into the plans of the `patriots,' as they were termed.  A secret camp was arranged at Creet, west of Detroit, for the purpose of raising a force to cross the river and gave battle, for it was thought if a stand could be made, they would soon gain strength.  Four hundred men were enrolled and equiped.  Putnam was made commander.  A steamboat was chartered to cross the river, and on the fourth of December, in the evening, they crossed and landed at the town of Windsor, opposite Detroit.  As the steamer returned to the American shore again there was no hope but to fight to the last.  At Windsor the steamer Thames was burned at the wharf, the militia routed, the barracks burned.  Spies were in the party, and before the party crossed the river word had been carried to the British troops at Post Malden, who were but illy disciplined compared with regular troops.  They stood their ground for a time, but the struggle was short and destructive.  Many dead were left on the field on both sides.  My father was shot through the brain.***  My two brothers were with him, but escaped, the youngest recrossed the river on an ice cake amid flying bullets, the other escaped to the woods.  The wounded were bayoneted. The prisoners were placed on a fence and shot.  Many of the dead were buried on the field, but my father's remains were allowed to be taken up and placed in a coffin and buried in a friend's garden.  Thus ended the career of my father, in the prime of life, driven to desperation through the fear and jealousy of those in power.  His was a noble life, sacrificed to tyranny and oppression.  He was one of the noblest of men, and an affectionate husband, a kind and indulgent father, honorable and generous to a fault."

 

Here ends the manuscript narrative.

 

Dr. Putnam writes: "The rebels presented my uncle with a handsome sword on that night (the night before the attack on Windsor), which weapon was found tightly clenched in his hand when his dead body was found after the battle.  Col. Prince (so notorious) obtained the sword, and kept it as a souvenir, notwithstanding the effort my father made to obtain it after the battle was over."

 

This Col. Prince was the British commander, and he it was who ordered the prisoners to be shot, as he himself reports in his dispatch to his superiors.  The number killed was twenty-one, "besides four brought in just at the close, and immediately after the engagement, all of whom I ordered to be shot on the spot, which was done accordingly." (Report of Colonel Prince.)****

 

Lord Durham on hearing of this arrocity exclaimed in the House of Lords, "he had no hesitation in stating that Col. Prince was a murderer, and a disgrace to the name of a British officer."  Prince was cashiered and dismissed the service.  Lord Durham, afterward became Governor- general of Canada, and was entertained by Thomas Putnam at his home.

 

 

*    Mr. Putnam names him as Dr. Charles Duncombe, which seems to be an error.  However, Duncombe was one of the prominent "rebels."  He owed his life to Thomas Putnam, for on one occasion he was closely pursued, and after several says' wandering, during which fed on berries and roots, he reached the house of Thomas Putnam, who concealed him, and that night carried him to the home of Colonel Douglas, who kepted him concealed for several months till he could get him across the border, which Duncombe accomplished disguised in woman's apparel.  Soldiers visited the Douglas house several times while Duncombe was concealed there.

**   Dr. Putnam informs Eben Putnam that Thomas Putnam was not with his brother on this occasion, as he had returned home immediatley his brother was safe on American territory.

***  The following account of Putnam's death was given by Major McGuise, who stood by Putnam's side at the time:  "After ordering his party to retreat, he turned and faced the british, shook his sword in their faces, uttering a curse of disappointment and rage.  A British soldier stepped forward and deliberately shot him through the forehead."

**** Of the prisoners taken in Upper Canada, one hundred and eighty were tried by court-martial in the spring of 1889, and condemned to be hanged, all but twenty-four were recommended to merciful consideration of the Government.  A number were pardoned, ten were hanged, but most were transported to Van Diemen's land, where numbers died.

Notes for THOMAS PUTNAM:

The early life of Thomas Putnam was uneventful.  He soon showed evidence of a strong individuality, which developed later later into a vigorous and sturdy manhood.  He located at Dorchester, Upper Canada, in the year 1825 and laid the foundation of an entensive mercantile and lumbering business which proved very successful, Mr. Putnam becoming one of the most prominent private citizens in western Ontario, then Canada West.  He and his brothers, Joshua and Williams, were associated together in business in early life.  They had inherited property from their father, and by well applied efforts had increased their stake in the country.  At the time of the "Rebellion" the Putnams were well-to-do farmers and lumbermen.  As each of the younger boys married their share was set off to them.  Throughout the country they were known as the Putnam Brothers, and acquired considerable property in the shape of land, mills, and public houses.

About the year 1839, the name of Dorchester was changed to Putnam in honor of the subject of this sketch.  During the troublous time incident to the Canadian rebellion of 1837-38, Mr. Putnam sympathized with the supporters of responsible government and thus became an object of suspicion to the Tory party then in power, so much so in fact that he was obliged to remain in concealment many weeks to save himself from imprisonment, and possibly a worse fate.  He had previously, in anticipation of trouble, constructed a secret chamber in his house, entered only by a concealed sliding panel.  Here he lay six weeks, during which time British Soldiers searched the house.  This chamber is still to be seen in the old mansion house.  He greatly aided the rebel cause with both money and influence.  His brother, William Putnam, was one of the leaders of the rebel forces in Upper Canada, and commanded rebels at the battle of Winsdor, where he fell at the head of his men.

Mr. Putnam was appointed a magistrate by the Governor in 1838, an office he retained to the time of his death, March 26, 1880.  This office is a life appointment in Canada.  He refused other public offices, which were frequently tendered him.  Mr. Putnam met with business reverses late in life, which left him only a very moderate competence after honorably satisfying the demands of every creditor in full, although not compelled to do so by law at the time, his losses having been due to the dishonesty of a partner whom he trusted.
