Edmund Tufts, so-called, lived nearly opposite, with his charming sister, Aunt Abbie. But they have both passed away, and the site of their little home is occupied by a block of buildings. I had nearly forgotten to speak of the little schoolhouse, where now stands the Orthodox Congregational church. Here we learned our A B C's. More than one of the teachers boarded at Mr. Edgerly's, for where there is a large family, there is always room for one more. Next to Edmund Tufts lived Mr. Jonathan Brown, who still answers to the roll-call at ninety-two years, the last of the oldest friends, but his life has been a regular one. Being associated with a bank, his hours were shorter than other business men's, and he had time to enjoy his garden and plenty of choice books. We were always glad on Christmas morning to have the Brown boys bring over their new books, for while we had our share of the good things the Father and Mother Santa Claus brought on the night before Christmas, when al

ntered upon the town records, and there stands a witness to the sterling honesty and integrity of the fathers. February 3, 1752, before the settlement of Mr. Cushing, the church and town invited Mr. Eli Forbush to become pastor. March 16th he declined the call, but asked further time to consider it. March 27th he wrote stating that he had once decided to accept, but learning of opposition to his settlement on the part of some, he had finally concluded not to accept their call. Captain Jonathan Brown, of Watertown, commanded a company of troops in what is called The Old French War, on the Canadian frontier. A writer who carefully examined some of the Brown Papers, dated at Lake George in 1758, gives a list of 51 names of soldiers who served in his command, and judges from the names that a majority of them were from Watertown, Waltham, and contiguous towns. Probably all of these, with the exception of one named Cuffe Peacock, who signed his name by a mark, and was doubtless a

who of all the men who have adorned our history will be so worthy to repose beside the hallowed dust of Washington?" Should old Scott be found in arms on Virginia soil, and there be made to bite the dust in honorable combat, the rules of civilized warfare would entitle the body to decent sepulture; but the grave would be gazed on with loathing and disgust by every patriotic Virginian. Should he die in the enemy's country, his remains should not be allowed to pollute the soil which holds the honored dust of Washington. More detested than the name of Jno. Brown, that of Winfield Scott will live in Virginia history as the synonym of traitor and apostate. Time may mitigate the judgment of men against the former, and tolerate his measures as a crazy fanatic. The other will be enecrated in all coming time as a bad, selfish, meanless, ingrate, inpanable of a generous, impulse of patriotism — a deliberato parricide from mean, mercenary motives.--Awansta (Va.) Constitutionalist.
