The Monitor. [volume] (Woodstown, N.J.) 1884-1892, 1884-10-24

TACT that at the time whereof We write
there was a house standing on the site of
the present residence of VIM. NJ. Wealth
erby, which was occupied by Maskell
Reed, and his son Elisha Reed informs us
that it was moved away in 1860. We can
not recollect it. personally. and it is strik-
ing example of the completeness with which
things of the past are obliterated from the
memory. that several old residents of whom
we have inquired, fail to recall the place to
mind. Others however, remember it dis
tinctly. On the mill street near Charles B.
Clark's residence up the old race way
which is still visible, stood a saw mill and
near it a small house, since moved out to
Bushtown.1
If our recollection as to that part of the
village below the Post Office seems in any
particular at fault, it must be attributed to
the fact that our home was at the opposite
end of the town. and our boyish business
or sport seldom led us down town,
wholesome fear of sundry down town
boys helping materially to keep us on our
own reservation, except when Sunday
brought truce or we were under safe con-
voy. Prominent among these lshmaelites
was one whom we always promised our
self the luxury of pommelling if we ever
got big enough, but somehow he has al
ways managed to keep about one size too
big for us, up to this time; and we have
concluded that it is best to forgive him.
The other boys called him Jack" We
and 70 ns he was only a nameiess Terror
with big 7. We are not afraid of him
now, and we don't care if lie does hear us
say so.
Across the millpond bridge on the left
were vacant lots as far as the dwelling now
