Captain Pegram, after visiting Richmond and reporting to the Navy Department for instructions, returned to the ship, bringing information that the Nashville had been sold to private parties in Charleston.

on the twenty-ninth of August a general consent appeared, by the erection of hands, that the government and patent should be settled in New England. This vote, by which the commercial corporation became the germ of an independent commonwealth, was simply a decision of the question, where the future meetings of the company should be held; it was sanctioned by the best legal advice; its lawfulness was at the time not questioned by the privy council, at a later day, was expressly affirmed by Sawyer, the attorney-general; and, in 1677, the chief-justices Chap. IX.} 1629. Rainsford and North still described the charter as making the adventurers a corporation upon the place. Similar patents were granted by the Long Parliament and Charles II., to be executed in Rhode Island and Connecticut; and Baltimore and Penn had an undisputed right to reside on their domains. The removal of the place of holding the courts from London to the Bay of Massachusetts, changed nothing in the relations of

Adams farm at West Medford, on the south side of the canal. Capt. Nathan (Squire) Adams' farm was on both sides of Main street, and included the Mystic Park. He died, 1842, aged seventy-nine. His nephew, George E. Adams, succeeded him. The buildings were on the east side of the street. Dea. Nathan Adams lived half way up Winter Hill. The buildings were on the west side of the street. He died, 1849, aged sixty. In Charlestown Square, in the rear of Sawtell & Jacobs' grocery, were sheds and a stable where many milkmen, on the return home, used to call to bait themselves and horses. Sawyer's Cellar Restaurant, near by, was not idle. Noah Johnson, who lived on Marm Simonds' hill, had a local route. J. E. Wellington bought him out, ran it about a year, and sold to a Mr. Milliken of Lexington. This was long before J. E. Ober's time. There were, perhaps, no others doing a local milk business at that time, so many Medford people had cows of their own. Francis A. Wait.

reet corner was later the Hall school, taught by Miss Ellen Lane. Joseph E. Ober, Ellis Pitcher and Moses W. Mann bought at the first auction sale lots on Winthrop and Monument streets. Mr. Pitcher was then keeping a little grocery under Mystic Hall and was postmaster. Frank Lincoln was his helper. Mr. Pitcher never built, and only last year sold his land, from which a lot of concrete blocks have been made and on which is just now being erected a dwelling. He very soon sold the store to Sawyer & Parmenter, who in December sold it to J. E. Ober, who in 1871 built his present residence and Mr. Mann his, the latter person being the first resident on that street. In 1870 Simeon S. Leavitt had built, by J. H. Norton, the large mansard roof house (second from St. Raphael's Church), and in ‘71 Charles M. Barrett (then living on Warren street) had erected his house and stable on the adjoining lot. Deacon James Pierce of Medford was the builder, and it was doubtless the best constructe

y the erection of the new dwelling of James Madison Usher, who was born in the old Whitmore-Usher home in 1814. This new house with its stable was shaded by many trees, enlarged in 1871, and was enclosed by a massive front fence. In May, 1870, only one little one-story building stood on the angular lot opposite it. At that time Ellis Pitcher had a grocery in the Mystic Hall building and was postmaster. Up beside the freight track R. K. Carpenter did granite cutting. Pitcher sold out to Sawyer & Parmenter in June, and they to J. E. Ober in December, 1870. This was the extent of business operations then. In the winter of 1870-71 Mr. Usher had the roof of that one-story building (in which the post office had once been) raised up and another story built in, with stairs, outside, to it. In the spring of 1871 Charles W. Macy opened in it a little store, notions, newspapers, etc. Mr. Usher had built a small two-story house at his sand pit up Warren street and into it Edward Shaw
