| Intro Newport Return to index of stories... |
But first. For many of us Thanksgiving is a time to re-connect with our families. A time to share memories and a time to give thanks. But where did this holiday come from? Chip Neal found a surprising connection between the town of Newport New Hampshire and the origins of our Thanksgiving holiday. |
| Thanks Newport Return to index of stories... |
Thanksgiving Newport Thanksgiving script MOS - what's the connection between the origins of Thanksgiving and Newport? -Oh geez I don't know if I have an answer for that. I'm not a real native am I Chip-I've got a question for you about Thanksgiving. What's the connection between Newport and Thanksgiving There's just one word, it's the country kitchen, right up the street from here they have a community thanksgiving dinner they've put on for the past fifteen years and I have been privileged enough to be a waitress there Well I don't know that Newport had much to do with the beginnings of it but the fact that a leading citizen from the past petitioned Abraham Lincoln to make thanksgiving a national holiday she wanted this day to be recognized by all Americans. Track - That leading citizen was Sarah Josepha Hale. She was a remarkable woman with a long list of accomplishments. She was born in Newport in 1788. In fact this building behind me used to be the Rising Sun Tavern built back in the early 1800's by Gordon Buel, Sarah Josepha Hale's father. And, so it was, that Sarah Buel, who by the way was married at her father's tavern, that Sarah Buel eventually had a great deal to do with Thanksgiving as we know it. Track - Sarah Josepha Hale was a mover and a shaker, she was an advocate of women's rights, she was an author, a poet, a philanthropist, an editor of a national women's magazine and she is recognized as the driving force behind our national Thanksgiving holiday. #1 21:43 Andrea - Sara in her book Northwood which is probably the first slavery novel, it preceded Uncle tom's Cabin by 2 decades in that she talks about this being the perfect time of the year to get together and thank god for the goodness in life and for being an American. George Washington said he liked the idea of Thanksgiving during his presidency so she promoted that idea in Northwood and when she became the editor of Godies Ladie's book she started a campaign and she lobbied the senators and the presidents for 20 years to make thanksgiving a national holiday and every year in the Ladies book in the editorial pages she would write a piece urging all her readers and at that time the Ladies book had a following of about 150,000 so it was influencial among women. She urged them to write to their governors and congressman and senators to make thanksgiving a national holiday and in 1863 Lincoln finally heeded her plea and declared it a national holiday. Track - Besides growing up here in Newport she taught school here and then married a lawyer named David Hale and raised a large family. This house we believe was owned by Sara and David Hale it was on the common and was moved here sometime later… Sara married David Hale and they had 5 children and the fifth one wasn't born until after David died. Judith Clark historian - 4:40 So she was widowed with 5 children no real training formal education she was educated at home by her mother and her brother who graduated from Dartmouth. So, she didn't think she could make enough money as a school teacher to support 5 children. So, she and her sister opened a millinary shop a hat shop. All this time she was writing poems little stories and some of the Masons, her husband had been a free Mason, they were kind of looking out for the family. So they didn't fall into financial trouble. And they paid for the publication of her first book. MOS #1 15:45 Odell Well we're proud of Ms. Hale and you have to remember that she not only got thanksgiving to be a national holiday but she also helped raise the money to build Bunker Hill monument where men had failed. She also wrote Mary had a little Lamb. track - Recite Mary Had a Little Lamb by Sarah Josepha Hale 14:00 we don't know exactly when or why Sarah Hale wrote Mary Had a Little Lamb and it has been around so long that we don't even think about I wonder who wrote that. It's not like "Stopping Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost. She was quite adept at writing little rhyming poems little verses that nobody does that anymore today. But many of her poems and verses were set to music by Lowell Mason a well known musician and he published many of her poems in his song book "The Juvenile Lyre" which was a song book used all throughout public schools in the United States in the 19th century. Andrea Thorpe - #2 5:00 it was also on Edison's first record. The first recording ever made was a recitation of Mary Had a Little Lamb. And there are several books we have of illustrators depicting the poem Judith - 8:55 She was not someone who was a feminist the way we think feminists or political activists today. You can certainly look at what she did and say she was incredibly active in the political sense because she helped promote a lot of causes that benefited many people. Andrea Thorpe 6:05 People ask me why isn't Sarah as well known as Susan B. Anthony Sarah advocated for rights for women in that she believed that women should have inheritance rights and property rights believed in education believed that women should be missionaries and doctors. What she didn't believe in is that women should have the right to vote She believed that dealing in politics was a dirty thing and it was something that men did not women. She didn't speak in public a very proper Victorian woman So she wasn't one of those rabble rousers like Susan B. Anthony or Elizabeth Caddy Stanton so she probably overlooked by feminists and they have forgotten or not known the good she did for them. Track: That good, it seems, is still very much a part of the Newport community. MOS-This town is very much involved with and concerned with its neighbors and usually they always pitch in if a family is having trouble or alone if an elderly person is alone there's always someone in the neighborhood to be with on thanksgiving. I think that's something to be really grateful for. This town epitimises that Track - Even with the magazine and all of her books and poetry and philanthropic projects it may turn out that her most enduring contribution is our Thanksgiving holiday. For that we all owe Sarah Josepha Hale our thanks. In Newport for NH Outlook I'm Chip Neal. |

Sarah Hale died at the age of 91 and left one other legacy - Since 1956 the annual Hale Award is given each year to a New England author who is pre-eminent in literature or the arts. One criteria is that the winner must go to Newport and speak to the people there in order to get the award. This year's winner is Vermont novelist and poet Jay Parini. Past winners have included Ogden Nash, May Sarton, Donald Hall, Russel Banks and Ernest Hebert. And, a month ago Governor Benson declared October 24th as Sarah Josepha Hale day in New Hampshire. |
| Intro Strawbery Banke Return to index of stories... |
Most of us equate Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims and Native Americans --but, it was actually celebrated "before" the Pilgrims landed. In the 1600's it was more like a religious celebration observed in church -- only later, did it become a harvest festival. How did the holiday "evolve" into what it is today? Some local school children traveled to New Hampshire's oldest neighborhood, Strawbery Banke, to find out. Strawbery Banke/Thanksgiving |
| Strawbery Banke Return to index of stories... |
A STROLL THROUGH STRAWBERY BANKE IS LIKE STEPPING INTO THE PAST, WHERE 300 YEARS OF AMERICAN HISTORY COMES TO LIFE. FOR KIDS - IT'S A LIVING CLASSROOM. ================================= You're time travelers…going into the past…know what you're studying…/ the history of thanksgiving. STRAWBERY BANKE HAS TEAMEDUP WITH SCHOOLS IN 3 STATES TO PROVIDE AN INTERACTIVE LESSON ON HOLIDAY CELEBRATIONS FROM 3 DIFFERENT TIME PERIODS FROM THE 1770'S / GEORGE WASHINGTON'S TIME, AT PITT TAVERN, TO THE 1870'S, THE VICTORIAN ERA IN THE GOODWIN MANSION, AND FINALLY 1917, A LOOK AT HOW AN EARLY 20TH CENTURY JEWISH FAMILY MARKED THE HOLIDAY. in: Every November I come here with my class./ this is my 5th year coming to the thanksgiving program.at Strawberry Banke. It kicks off our big thanksgiving unit…we do a simulation of the Pilgrims journey to England, build houses etc, first Thanksgiving a 2 week intensive unit and this is a nice program to see how the holiday has changed in this country and in some cultures as its progressed. Welcome to Strawberry Banke my name is Joe/ WITH JOE MULQUEEN AS THEIR GUIDE…4TH GRADERS FROM THE MOHARAMET SCHOOL IN MADBURY MADE THEIR WAY TO PITT TAVERN / THEIR FIRST STOP IN THEIR JOURNEY THRU HISTORY. ======================= The origin of Thanksgiving comes from people looking back toward pilgrims to George Washington's time…. back in 17-1800's GW…people kept journal what they wrote down. .how did she spell pie, p-y-e…pye spell the way it sounded 1:07:48 .back then made use of everything…they can…make toys for yourself…make corn husks dolls. What I want you to do is pinch the top a little and form a head to the doll.make permanent knot DRY CORN HUSKS WERE USED FOR MORE THAN DOLL-MAKING!! IN THE 1700'S THOSE SAME HUSKS WERE USED TO STUFF MATRESSES FOR TRAVELERS SEEKING LODGING AT LOCAL TAVERNS. ON A BUSY HOLIDAY -- YOU MIGHT NOT GET YOUR OWN ROOM. If it's real busy.you might not get your own bed…the rule was back then in Washington's time that no more than 5 people to a a bed… wouldn't have to share your bed with more than 4 other people. backs of heads heading to next session. STOODLEY Tavern shot /dissolve to fire and cast iron kettle cooking Did you all visit the Pitt tavern yet, with the big hearth. We're going to talking about how people cooked thanksgiving dinner during that You could cook a turkey right here on the hearth This is called the tin kitchen, and you may have seen that big spit, this is a little spit and you could stick turkey on it and sits right in front of the fire, a reflector oven since the heat reflects inside. We can cook mashed potatoes and turnips and squash right here just as you do using a different method called the crane. What does that look like to you? an s hook, this is what hangs on the crane What would be high heat…how many s hooks, 3 s hooks because it will be closest to the fire. How many of you have pies on thanksgiving? Here in the 1700's you can cook a lot of pies at once in this oven. Another way to cook pies here on this bake oven, take some coals out, need lots of coals ou in hearth. its called bake kettle.if I put my pie inside.flat top here, fill this full of hot coals on bottom and top create my own little oven with heat on bottom and top to cook the pie Anyone have mince meat pie before? Raising of hands. Did it have real meat inside, really good this is like a sweet meat pie. I'm going to tell you the ingredients and then you're going to come up here and help me make this pie They've made some great changes this year, every activity every house went to a lot more interacive the children had something to do and they will remember this much more so than someone speaking to them they actually got to a lot of the program. We have raisins, see what's in those raisins. Those are actually seeds, and in the 1770's a good job for the kids was for kids to take these seeds out of the raisins, so you know what that's called.its actually called stoning the raisins.:58 so someone is going to have to stone these raisins scrape seeds out and then cut em up We need 2 eggs cracked and stirred with the birch bark whisk And the last thing that goes into mince meat pie is meat.and I have some meat here and its simmering waiting to be chopped up in 1770 you used all parts of the cow when you slaughter it This is type of meat from cow, used in mince meat do you know what that is…its cow tongue, exactly what it is. that's going to get sliced up and put into mince meat pie NEXT STOP 1863/ where a wood "cook stove" was the order of the day. Who was President during civil war. Abe Lincoln…I have a good way of reminding you. Abe Lincoln were a hat similar to this and there's a special name for this.it's a special kind of top hat. it's a stovepipe hat…and the way to remember that is because Abe Lincoln would have had his thanksgiving meal cooked here on a wood cook stove, and his hate looks very much like a stovepipe ========================= We would bake our baked goods in the oven, and there's not much space here is there. If I had to cook an entire Thanksgiving meal. It might take me a couple of days to cook our meal. We're going to be making sugar cookies and also grinding coffee. ======= nat we got to eat sugar cookies we did too ===================================== IF YOU FAST FORWARD TO 1870 YOU'RE TRANSPORTED TO THE HOME OF NEW HAMPSHIRE'S GOVERNOR ECHIBOAG GOODWIN, WHO IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY, ISSUED PROCLAMATIONS ON THE LOCAL OBSERVANCE OF THANSKGIVING. BUT, ALL THAT CHANGED AFTER THE CIVIL WAR. ================ ==================== NOT EVERYONE COULD PUT ON A THANKSGIVING SPREAD LIKE THE GOODWINS-WHICH IS WHY JOURNAL ENTRIES FROM THE PAST DETAILED THE DISTRIBUTION OF CHARITY BASKETS. =============== . For 2 days before Thanskgiving our back door was besieged by pensioners who all came with the same whining request. Please give me something for thanksgiving, my mother always had ready a store of flour, Indian Meal and apples which she would dispense to the crowd THE NEEDY WOULD BRING A STOUT PILLOWCASE INTO WHICH A MEASURE OF RICE WOULD BE POURED , THEN A STRONG TWINE WOULD BE TIED TIGHTLY AROUND THE OUTSIDE TO SEPARATE IT FROM THE FLOUR WHICH WOULD COME NEXT. What we're going to do is make a charity basket, we're going to use a pillow case like this:40 ============= Think about how much we're giving these people Remember what the quote said that people who didn't have things would be allowed on thanksgiving to come to the back door and ask for things. ========= Everybody take a nut and add that to the basket ========= |

| Intro Helen Return to index of stories... |
Finally tonight. a story about some of New Hampshire's home grown goodness. It all started when author Helen Brody was browsing for a book about New Hampshire and its locally grown food. She didn't find one. So she decided to write one herself. What she found in her research was a variety of active working farms searching for their niche in today's economy. She took producer Barrett Lester to one of the family farms profiled in her new book. Their success just might change the way you buy your produce. :25-:34 1:08-1:15 3:04-3:11 5:01-5:10 month. |

Package: SOT: Chuck T1 4:15-4:26 Family farms are certainly under stress, but if you're willing to change and think outside the box, I think there's a future, I really do. VO Meet Chuck Souther, New Hampshire farmer. He and his wife Diane have owned and run Apple Hill Farm located on the edge of Concord for the past 25 years. It's a working farm, and Chuck loves the challenge. SOT Chuck T1 3:15-3:36 We wanted to do something tangible….on the land… My wife and I wanted to work together…. It just seemed like a good thing. It's a great life. VO Still, economic realities in New Hampshire have forced family farms to evolve. Author Helen Brody believes it's a message that needs sharing. So she visited Apple Hill farm and 29 others in the Granite State to profile for her new book. It's titled New Hampshire, from Farm to Kitchen. SOT T2 HELEN 28:14- 28:19 The goal of the book is to visit the farms, but more than that…. to promote agriculture in the state. BROLL TO COVER HERE SOT T2 HELEN 36:38-36:52 The way that farms are going to survive… is finding a nitch market…and that's what all of the farms I've chosen have done. SOT T1 CHUCK 14:17- 14:42 We've got an English cooking apple….It's another thing we do here to get people here. Come here and get something different….they can go to the grocery store to get their food… they come here to get something different. * VO In addition to the myriad of apple varieties Chuck and Diane are growing, Helen believed Apple Hill Farm was an important addition to her book, because of its integrated approach to pest management. SOT T1 CHUCK 4:45-5:10 It's a knowledge based method of producing crops…. We take a look at everything….use all of those things when you make a decision to control a pest. SOT T2 STAND UP 1:03:45 * This case is filled with apples grown at the Apple hill farm here in concord. The farm also specializes in Black currants, rarely grown in this area. SOT T1 CHUCK 19:19-19:38 We kind of got hooked on them in Europe… it seemed like a good drink to buy… wow this is great! That's what got us started on it. SOT T2 HELEN 39:13- 39:29 and when I heard they were growing black currants, which is very rare around here… that's another reason I visited this farm. SOT T1 CHUCK 18:55-19:19 it's a small berry… if you popped it in your mouth… if you cooked it up… they have a unique flavor…. Very fruity flavor. VO The fruity flavor is captured in a family recipe for black currant jelly that Diane shared with Helen for the book's recipe section. Here they cook up a batch. SOT T2 50:55- 51:10 Now it's just beginning to simmer… it's getting thicker… runny at this stage because of the heat….* SOT T2 53:08-53:28 We're at the point now that we can pour some in…. Seal it up tight. SOT T2 HELEN 39:45- 39:59 It's a labor of love, because it is very, very time consuming thing… it's just delicious. SOT T2 DIANE T2 54:25-54:38 Any time I can represent NH and the cooking I do, I… I think it's great. The black courants are definitely unique to our area… and I'm more than willing to share….that's one thing we do here at the farm is sharing recipes. SOT T1 HELEN 29:12-29:20 Honestly, every farm we visited, they have been so welcoming… and great, great people, and I just think the word needs to get out, that's all. SOT T2 DIANE 56:08- 56:15 It's part of tourism here in NH, giving back to the earth; buying local; it's certainly more nutritious, it's fresher…. VO If you're experiencing a sudden urge to jump in your car right about now to buy this locally-grown produce, Helen's book is the perfect traveling companion. SOT T2 HELEN 41:35 -41:52 So you can get some background on the farm before you visit it. I think it makes traveling the state more interesting. it gives you a lot more information about where you're traveling. SOT T2 DIANE 57:00 Hit those back roads and find those local farms. VO In Concord, for New Hampshire Outlook, I'm Barrett Lester. |
