occasion of such peculiar interest, and to make the acquaintance of its brave and self-denying pioneers, but I have not health and strength for the journey. It is very fitting that this anniversary should be duly recognized. No one of your sister states has such a record as yours,—so full of peril and adventure, fortitude, self-sacrifice, and heroic devotion to freedom. Its baptism of martyr blood not only saved the state to liberty, but made the abolition of slavery everywhere possible. Barber and Stillwell and Colpetzer and their associates did not die in vain. All through your long, hard struggle I watched the course of events in Kansas with absorbing interest. I rejoiced, while I marvelled at the steady courage which no danger could shake, at the firm endurance which outwearied the brutalities of your slaveholding invaders, and at that fidelity to right and duty which the seduction of immediate self-interest could not swerve, nor the military force of a proslavery government
us Pamphlet, entitled Babylon's Fall in Maryland, 1655. Both are minute, and, in the main, agree. Compare Chalmers; McMahon, 207; Hazard, i. 621—628, and 629, 630; Bacon's Pref. while three of the principal men of the province, sentenced to death by a council of war, were presently executed. Hammond, 22, 23. A friend to Lord Baltimore, then in the province, begged of the protector no other boon than that he would condescend to settle the country by declaring his determinate will. Barber, in Langford, 15. And yet the same causes which led Cromwell to neglect the internal concerns of Virginia, compelled him to pay but little attention to the disturbances in Maryland. On the one hand, he respected the rights of property of Lord Baltimore; on the other, he protected his own political partisans, corresponded with his commissioners, and expressed no displeasure at their exercise of power. Thurloe, i. 724, and IV. 55. Hazard, i. 594, quotes but one of the rescripts. Hammond,
In the equipment of the road (the cars, engines and station houses) there has been a change as the years have passed. Our illustration, the first engine and car, shows a marked contrast with the present. Some allowance must be made for old prints, as compared with modern photographic views, but we have seen a drawing, made by one we know capable, that tallies with this, which is said to have appeared first in Gleason's Pictorial and reprinted in some other in later years. The views in Barber's Historical Collection almost always showed men and boys under tall hats, and even the first steam train in America is notable therefor. In our old-time picture the engine men wear the more sensible cap, while the fuel shown is wood. There were then no coal-burning engines. Next there was Engine Cocheco, built at Lowell, on the Branch a long time; weight, twelve tons. And later, and for many years, the engine Camilla, that weighed twenty tons and was built in Boston. We fancy

e by three commissioners, and substantial maps, descriptions and historic facts made into the Boundaries of Medford, one of which is in the city clerk's office. The official photographer also was on the ground, and two pages contain thirty half-tone views of these monuments. All but one were taken in that year and form a highly interesting exhibit, especially after the changes that twenty-seven years have wrought. Corner number one is at the top of Winter hill, inside the front fence of Mr. Barber's grounds, is less than a foot high, with a shade tree beside it. The view is taken looking into the front yard, which is in Somerville, while the rear is in Medford and the house in both cities. Just now, in this extreme corner of Medford, are being built some twenty houses of modern type. The last noted invasion of this spot was by the Hessian prisoners after their weary march from Saratoga in 1777. Number two is 3,550 feet westward, and looking north the Littlefield lumber shed forms
ward drawn by horses, and in the distance the lock and tavern is seen. A surprising feature is in evidence: a balloon hovering over the whole and in the foreground (where is now the Parkway-Auburn street bridge) stand a man, woman and child viewing the scene. Possibly the Medford aeronaut Lauriat may have made an ascension and sailed over about this time. Who knows? So far as is known, no reproduction of this view has ever been made, though several attempts have failed. In 1839, Barber's Historical Collection was published, the author himself making the illustrating sketches in the various Massachusetts towns he visited and described. In the Register of September, 1920, may be seen his work in portraying Medford. This view is printed from the same wood block made and used in 1839. It is not without its inaccuracies, as was noticed in that and subsequent issues; still, to old residents the view was cognizable. In 1839 the engraver on steel or wood had to be furnishe
