yrus Cutter, in 1831, with a mill-site thereon, where the mills formerly known by the name of the Tufts mills stood, previous to the fire which destroyed said mills. Cyrus Cutter granted the above as a lease-hold estate for mill purposes, to William Welch and Charles Griffiths, both of Boston, sawmakers, and Charles Reeves, of West Cambridge, filecutter, in 1832, with buildings thereon standing, raceway through Blackington's land, &c. The lane by the saw-factory was laid out as a town way in 1840. Abner Stearns's first business was that of wool-carding, to which he added a gristmill, afterward used for grinding yellow ochre for paint.

The succeeding structure, built on the same site, was burnt Jan. 1, 1866, and the present house is its successor. In this year thirty dollars were drawn for the purpose of encouraging singing. The following memorandum was made on the Precinct Records: July 1804, the Meeting House belonging to the Rev. Thaddeus Fiske's Society was raised and no man hurt thereby. The record book of the Northwest Parish of Cambridge Singing Society contains the Constitution of the Society, with this
