The excitement about that little house was intense, the family, the brickmakers, the teamsters all crowded about us, and stood dazed by the awful intelligence.

Previous to this time it had been occupied by Hon. Edward Everett. In 1842, or about that time, the house was owned and occupied by John S. Edgerly. The late Hon. George 0. Brastow, one of the b on, the site of the house of Mr. Whitcomb, stood the Chester Adams house. It had been occupied by him, but at this time (1842) was owned and occupied by William Tufts, a farmer. Chester Adams was the father of the late Hon. James Adams, a prominen
