NOAH MARTIN
In this city, 28th ult., of apoplexy, Ex-Governor Noah Martin. He was born in Epsom, July 26th 1801. On the morning of his death arose apparently as well as usual and while preparing for the duties of the day was suddenly taken ill with severe pain in the head, became insensible in a short space of an hour, and in less than half an hour more he expired as in a gentile slumber, - so tranquil the flight of the spirit that the exact moment of its departure was hardly perceptible. In the midst of life he was thus snatched away. In his death his family and private friends and the public will suffer for a loss which can never be replaced, for he was a kind and affectionate husband and father, a wise counselor, and a true patriot. He had for many years a presentiment that his death would be sudden and looked forward to that hour with calmness and cheerfulness, in the sure hope of a blissful immortality. In his early years he evinced in untiring love for books and a desire as he advanced in years to study for the medical profession, as his future calling. Many obstacles had to be overcome, with sever struggle, in his pursuit of knowledge, still he pursued until he had acquired a through classical and professional education. His medical education was commenced with Dr. Pillsbury of Pembroke, and finished with Dr. Graves of Deerfield. He graduated and received his diploma at Dartmouth College in the medical class of 1824. Having completed his course of study, he commenced the practice of his profession as partner with Dr. Graves, his last named teacher. In 1825, he removed to Great Falls, then a flourishing manufacturing village, entering at once into a large and lucrative practice. He remained there nine years. In 1824 he removed to Dover, where he soon gained the confidence of the people, and was again extensively engaged in relieving suffering humanity. He was now considered one of the best physicians and surgeons of the State; in fact, the leading physician of this section, and the consulting physician in difficult cases requiring superior medical skill. His natural dignity of mien and courteous bearing, united with his social qualities, pleasant address and sympathetic heart seemed to make him very popular; and the force of his character was such, that all who knew him respected him and in the circle of his personal friends, where his sterling qualities were best known, he was truly beloved. His high probity, his amiable and generous disposition, - over seeking the most charitable interpretation of the acts of others - ever ready to oblige- together with his many other excellent personal qualities, were fully appreciated, and will prevent his being soon forgotten. Seldom is it that death is regretted as his will be. All who sought his counsels found him faithful and sure, always ready with kind words of advice and encouragement, and in the many delicate offices connected with his profession, he displayed that discriminating sense, judgment and tact, conjoined with a nice observance of a tender and scrupulous confidence which were among his characteristics, and endeared him to the hearts of his patients. He was deeply devoted to his profession, pursuing it with a ceaseless ardor, giving it his greatest thought and study, and making many sacrifices of a personal nature for its benefit.
In politics he was a Democrat of the Jefferson and Jackson school. With but little ambition for political preferment, he was not always able to resist the importunities of political and personal friends, and was often brought forward for political office. He represented the town of Somersworth in the N.H. Legislature for two years, and after his removal to Dover, he was elected from that town to the same body. In 1835 and1836 he was a member of the N.H. Senate for District No. 5, and in 1852 and 1853 he was elected Chief Magistrate of the State. These several honorable trusts he discharged to the very general improvement of the community. As a legislator, his views were always with patriotic endeavor for sound constitutional policy. In political ethics he was careful and judicious, and would accept no new principle unless he could see clearly that it would result in the greatest good to the greatest numbers. He loved his country! He loved the Union! The Constitution in his eyes was a sacred instrument, affording equal rights to every citizen, and he held that the laws protecting those rights should be respected and obeyed and equally endorsed. He was a member of the State Society of Medical Fellows, - the Strafford N.H. District Medical Society - the Dover Medical Police, and of the American Medical Association, and was held in that esteem by his associates that he was elected to the office of President of each. He was a member of the N.H. Historical Society, - of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, having held the offices of Vice President of the last named - a Directory of the Dover Bank some years since - a member of the Board of Trustees, and also President of the Savings Bank for the County of Strafford, and was at the same time of his decease, a Director of the Strafford Bank. He also belonged to the orders of Masons and Odd Fellows. In all the various scenes of his life his highest enjoyment was to be useful. This is not the place to speak more particularly of those qualities of character which endeared him to his family and personal friends, and made him the comfort and joy of those nearest him. We presume not to life the veil from sorrows so sacred, nor to offer unavailing words of sympathy for such a loss, but we will say, perhaps few men discharged life's duties more wisely and conscientiously. His dying moments were cheered by the tender care and ministrations of his family and dear friends; and the sad procession that paid the last tribute to his memory-the clergy who performed the funeral rites-the choir who sang the touching requiem, attested their affectionate appreciation of his true character. His end was a literal fulfillment of the words of the Psalmist:"Mark the perfect man and behold the upright, for the end of that man is in peace."
