AN ANCIENT WE'LL

Close so she Walk on Elm Street on
 the Los Where the New Presbyterian
 Church ts Being Erected.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL ASD COURIER:
 was much interested in the remarks made by Captain Charles H. Townshsnd the other day regarding an ancient well on the front part of the lot on Elm street where the Prss- byterians are building their new place of worship. Captain T. says that he was told by the late William A. Reynolds. who for msrly owned the place, that in the front part of this yard, ss point he designated, was g well, covered now for many years, which is one of the oldest wells in the New England states. It is covered over with aagstonss and then with turing. Mr. Reynolds took his cane and ran 1t down through the turf, striking one of the dagstones which cover the mouth of the old we'll. The well was dug away back in the early days of the col opy and supplied many of our moet celebrat- ed people of those early days with pure, sparkling water. Here no doubt the regicidss quenched their thirst more than once and here Rev. John Davenport of colonial fame drank from its water. The present old house on this lot is the successor to the Davenport house, and a part of the celler of the pres ent house is part of the cellar of the Davenport house. Across the street, about where the Dr. Linsley house Is, lived the noted Governor Theophilus Eaton, and few years ago the late George Bassett, who owned part of the Governor Eaton lot, said there he had pears every year which were stump of . pear tree planted by Governor Eaton
