SALISBURY HISTORYMajor Pike died in Salisbury, December 12, 1706 at theage of 90. On the “Green’’ in Salisbury Square lies a monumentin his honor. The stone was once the stepping stone ofthe Quaker Meeting House in Seabrook, NH erected in 1752and removed in 1880.Cynthia Noone explained why the Historical Commissionhad the stone moved from its former location to the “Green”.It had previously been in the island at the beginning ofBeach Road and was lost among the road signs.At a special rededication following the re-enactment,Selectman Walter Morse, with Selectmen Alfred Sargentand Carl LeSage in attendance, thanked those who did theactual work involved. Park Commissioner James Pike wasthe overseer of the project, with the work being done byGeorge Mason and his crew. After the stone was in place, ahot top walk-way was built around it.Donald Pike spoke for the Pike family and told a few storiesrelating to the major. One story told of Pike’s horsebackride to Boston at the age of eighty. In the 1600’s, such a tripwas a two day ride.The printing of the following poem is through the courtesyof Houghton Mifflin Co., Beacon Street, Boston, MA,publisher of Whittier’s Complete Poetical Works.History of Essex CountyThe New Puritan by James PikeHistory of Newbury, Newburyportand West Newbury by Joshua CoffinNotable Events in the History of Dover, N.H. by George WadleighHistory of Amesbury and Merrimac by Joseph Merrill8
