AN HISTORIC SPRING.

Jenkins spring ia probably the highest
natural fountain OF flowing water in the
town OF Bethel. The spring is located q
few rods north of the South boundary
town line, which runs across the ridge
east and west and is the separating line
between hometown district in Reddiug
and Center district in Bethel and is also
the water divide. That is, all the water
which accumulates on the south side of
this ridge flows direct to the Sound, all
water north of this ridge flows north in
to the Housatonic river, south Of New
Milford village, and from thence to the
Sound. The spring flows from the ground
a few rods below the summit of the ridge
and If confined in pipe it would run
many feet higher than the Shelter Rock
Hill, partly within Bethel Borough Ii n.
its. Or If the water was piped in south.
erly direction, it would cross over the
divide and flow south. This spring takes
its name from an old inhabitant, Harry
jenkins, who lived near and used the
water for cooking and drinking purposes
for his large family of sons and daugh-
ters. "Uncle Harry" as he was called,
was born In house which was partly in
Bethel and partly In Redding. Which
town can claim his birthplace is uncer-
tain. He died at the great age of 90
years. In early days he took great pains
to stone and cover this little fountain OF
water. The job was neatly done. The
covering stone was chizzed out to admit
Jug or pail to dip up the water with
ease, which bubbles from the ground
clear and cool. It's an inviting place tC
eat lunch or to take an hours rest IL
