One day Mr. Carden telegraphed from London to Mr. Coventry at Hillsborough that he was coming down to Eastbank by the midday express, and would be glad to meet him there at four o'clock. He also telegraphed to Grace, and said, "Dinner at five." Both gentlemen arrived about the same time, a little before dinner.
After leaving college, in the year 1824, Franklin Pierce returned to Hillsborough. His father, now in a green old age, continued to take a prominent part in the affairs of the day, but likewise made his declining years rich and picturesque with recollections of the heroic times through which he had lived.
'On Saturday I shall take Hope away for a bit of rest to Saratoga probably and from there I shall take her to Hillsborough myself for a day or two. 'Thought she was goin' home with me, said Uncle Eb. 'O dear no! said Mrs Fuller, 'she cannot go now. The girl is ill and it's such a long journey. The postman came then with a letter for Uncle Eb. It was from David Brower.
I was plying an honest trade, in a country where freedom is the law. The Hillsborough Unions combined against me, and restrained my freedom, and threatened my life, ay, and attempted my life too, before to-day: and so the injustice and cruelty of men drove me to a sanctuary, me and my livelihood.

Little thirty pounds, and helped her pack up; and next day they reached Hillsborough by train. Henry took a close cab, and carried his mother off to the suburbs in search of a lodging.

I informed you in my last letter, we had ordered two thousand militia more, to rendezvous at Hillsborough on the 25th of October.
"But suppose I could suggest a way by which you could carry on your trade in Hillsborough, and offend nobody?" "I should decline to hear it even. You and I are at war on that. You have done your worst, and I shall do my best to make you all smart for it, the moment I get a chance." Grotait's cheek reddened with anger at this rebuff, and it cost him an effort to retain his friendly intentions.
And Hillsborough itself was black with people. The shouts of excited men, the neighing of horses, the bellowing of cattle, the wailing of infants, the howling of vendors, the pressing crowd, had begun to sow the seed of misery in the minds of those accustomed only to the peaceful quietude of the farm.
