The History Of Haverhill Massachusetts Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Some Memories of Old Haverhill: In Massachusetts But still the fire upon the hearth burns on, And I alone remain. When the house was built it arose amid an or chard of fruit trees. Forty acres of bloom and scent lay on the slope between it and the glinting, dimpling Merrimac. Peach and plum, pear and apple, apricot and quince, in season gave bloom and in season fruit. Between it and the town, along the river, stretched a short mile of pasture land where the violets bloomed and the luscious black berry trailed and myriad swallows built their caverned homes in high sand banks. Little the builders dreamed that the factory and the tenement house would devastate this Arcady, and alien races dwell in crowded tenements where then the kine chewed the cud of content in sun-kissed but soli tary stretches.
