e foot of Canal street. There were many persons licensed as innholders from the year 1690 to the year 1831, whose places of business cannot be located. It is hardly fair, however, to speak of such places as taverns, for they were only saloons for the sale of liquors, and the same may also be said of some of those previously mentioned.

The taverns of Medford. The Blanchard Tavern. by John H. Hooper. [Read before the Medford Historical Society, November 21, 1904.] Continued from Vol. VIII., No. 1. This house was built about the year 1752 by Mr. Benjamin Parker, at one time treasurer of the town of Medford. By deed dated June 6, 1752, Mr. Jonathan Zzz. Tufts sold to Mr. Parker one-half acre of marshland, bounded easterly on the county road; southerly on land of Merrow; westerly on land of said Tufts, and northerly on Mystic river. This lot of land is the same as that lately occupied by Messrs. Page & Curtin, and also that occupied by Mr. John Crowley. The whole property has been taken by the Metropolitan Park Commissioners for a parkway. The land described as that of Merrow is the same as that upon which now stands the paint shop in the possession of Mr. Nathaniel Ames. In the year 1753 Messrs. Ebenezer Merrow and Thomas Welsh were fined for setting up a fence on the highway between said Merrow's dwel
