THE OLD CITY HALL
A Brief Sketch of the Historic
Structure by c. A. Wall.

Birthplace Here.
"reminiscences of the Great Speakers and
Exciting Meetings Held in the Building

Events.
CRADLE OF FREE solLERs.

Very soon that modest looking but im-
portant structure, about which more has
been said and more public interest cen-
tered than has been the case with any
other building in Worcester, during the
three-quarters of a century that it has
stood, will be among the things that
were, and the ground it occupies win
be converted into a handsome park.
Considering the very essential part that
this old building has occupied during
the long period that it has been the
central rendezvous of the city fathers
and those who had so much TO do with
the municipal affairs of the city and
town, it is most proper that many a
farewell glance and many a farewell
word be said regarding it before it dis
appears from our sight forever. for 1t is
not likely that it win be allowed to re-
main there longer than is absolutely
necessary after the magnificent new city
hall has been completed and occupied.
The presence Of the old structure
would be- a most distasteful object OF
public attention and would destroy the
beauty of proportion in the surroundings
of the new structure, located as the lat
ter is in the centre of the front portion
of the old common, midway between
Front and Park streets.
The late Gov. Lincoln, after his nine
years service as governor of the com
monwealth and six years as representa-
tive in congress, in his inaugural adj
dress as the first mayor OF Worcester
alluded to .'the convenient, elegant and
appropriate arrangements of the city
hall, so creditable to the character of the
city, and so indispensable 10 the accom-.
modations of its officers and the transac-
tion of the public business" but thai
was 50 years ago, and no one would
probably be more enthusiastic than he
over the superb arrangements of oul
new city hall, and their necessity tC
