A Medford guide-post. The reading of a paper on milestones by Mr. Read at our Historical Society suggested to one of his hearers the writing of a letter, from which we quote:— At the corner of Main and High streets there was once a granite guide-post. On its top was a large square block of stone with the faces lettered Boston 5 miles. Lowell 20 miles. When Lowell was started, a great many tip-carts and truck of all sorts passed through the square. Because the natives were so often asked the way to Lole by emigrants on foot, John Howe, a selectman whose business was near by, insisted on lettering this post thus for their information. As very few of them could read, the guide-post was called Howe's Folly. The first mill employees at Lowell were from the country towns of New England; but later came the deluge. James Ewell, who was employed on the highways many years, said that after its removal the stone post was built into a bridge over Gravelly brook, and tha
one of its objects being to gather such facts relative to Medford history, near and remote, as were likely to be lost or forgotten. It has sought to do this by papers and addresses, many of which have appeared in the Register. During the past season they have been as follows:— October 21.—Distinguished Guests and Residents in Medford. Miss Eliza M. Gill. November 18.— The Roman Catholic Church in Medford. Mrs. Louise F. Hunt. December 16.—Milestones in and around Boston. Charles F. Read, Esq. January 20.—Old Salem Street. Miss Helen T. Wild. February 17.—Old Medford Records. Allston P. Joyce, Esq. March 17.—John Trumbull, Painter of the Revolution. Mr. Samuel Abbott. April 21.—The Massacre at Lancaster and the Story of Mrs. Rowlandson. Mrs. Augusta R. Brigham. May 19.—The Romance of Records. Rev. Arthur W. H. Eaton, D. C.L. On Saturday evening, May 3, at a special meeting, Mr. F. H. C. Woolley exhibited his water-color of the Pilgrim, and told the
und the Society housed in hired quarters (as the Register has noted), and opened on October 18. The President read his ‘message,’ which is on file in the records, making a clear statement of the Society's affairs. These were discussed at some length and laid over till the next meeting. Light refreshments were served. The November meeting was devoted to discussion of ways and means, and the reports of committees relative to securing other and permanent quarters. On December 20 Mr. Charles F. Read, clerk of Bostonian Society, gave ‘A Schoolboy's Recollections of the Civil War.’ The annual meeting, January 17, 1916, was devoted to reports and election of officers. February 21 we were honored with the presence of George and Martha Washington, in the persons of Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Fenton, who sustained their parts with dignity and grace. Master Topezia and Miss Jergueson, also in costume, vied with their elders, and danced a minuet to the accompaniment of the ancient serap
