Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Historical Magazine, 1908 In Chester, he invested by buying three mills, known as the saw-mill, the grist-mill, and the Worthen-mill. His wealth, edu cation, and accomplishments, with his feudal ancestry, placed him ot once in the lead in all matters representing the rights and privileges of the colony. These Scots had established the Presbyterian parish in Chester, and Forsyth represented their remonstrants many times, according to the local records, before the New Hampshire Government. Chase's History of Chester also says that he occupied the pulpit of the church during the absence of the minister, being the leading deacon thereof. His wife, as well, performed a great deal of charity work in the parish by assisting the sick and poor - for the family was looked to generally as the strongest and surest patron of the little colony.
