STREAM CHANGED ITS COURSE
North River in One Night Moved lite
g Mouth Three Miles to the
NorthWard.

There is a stream in this state
called the North river. It starts in a
pond near Hanson and runs to the sea
from Hanson to Scituate and the river
Is 40 miles long.
This river is probably the most re-
markable body of water, barring the
Dead sea, on this footstool and has
stood more abuse and bad language
than the Chicago river. When the tide
Is coming in the river runs upstream
n not only that, but the upper part
OF 1t, which is fresh water, also runs
up, and the spectacle of a fresh wa.
ter river beating it up hill is alone
enough to call attention to itself. But
there Is much more to it than that.
This North river is noted for being
he scene of the last Indian raid on
the coast settlements. 1t is notable
for having given birth to the ship Co.
lumbia, whose captain discovered
n named the Columbia river and
was the first American vessel to cir
cumnavtsate the world. 1t is notori-
GUS for having suddenly changed its
mind on its course on the night of
November 81, 1898, when it moved it's
mouth three miles to the northward,
presented the town of Marshfeld with
a deep harbor, killed three men and
converted about 200, 600 acres of prime
meadow land into a salt marsh.
But the chief thing about this river
Is Its crookedness. This river is so
crooked that it double crosses itself.
If you don't believe it go n Zee.
There is n place in Hanover where
by making three loops the river moves
toward the sea for a distance of al
most fifty feet and meanders about
