Medford local names.
Every town rejoices in some euphonious local names.
Medford has Sodom, Ram-head, Labor-in-Vain, No Man's Friend, Hardscrabble.
Brooks' Historical Item, 1816. Ram-head hill is the site of the Lawrence tower; Sodom, or Sodom-yards, once the scene of brick making (West street), is now covered with dwellings; but Labor-in-Vain is as yet unoccupied, having always been a salt-marsh, but not always an island in the river of Misticke.
