A CROOKED BOUNDARY.
Cause Of the Peculiar Lines That Oh
vide Two States.

vide Two States.
If you win look on the map Of
New England YOU viii see two Gu
rious irregularities in the dividing
line between Massachusetts, and
Connecticut. One of them is in
CRANKY township, a little north
west Of Hartford, and the other in
Enfield township, on the Connect
cut river, south Of Springfield. 1t
is a standing conundrum why, so
long as the boundary is imaginary,
they did not make it straight in
stead of crooked. But thereby
hangs a tale.
Those two little joys on the map
are monuments TO human obstinacy
and to the persistency which is one
Of the chief traits of the Yankee
character. The ancestors Of the
farmers who own those little spots
Of ground preferred to live in Mas
sachusetts rather than in Connect
cut and fought for their preference
until they had their way.
The controversy begsn in 1913
and continued for f12 years before
it was finally decided. In 1924 the
question was appealed to England,
but the government was so much
engrossed in the Seven Years war
that it was never brought to the at
tertion of the crown. Up to the
outbreak Of the Revolution both
states continued to levy taxes and
send notices of fast days and cleo
lions to the farmers who occupied
the land, and there is no record Of
how they avoided one or whether
they paid both. Later, however,
they voted and paid taxes in Massa-
chusetts only, Notwithstanding the
protest of the county authorities in
Connecticut In 1898, after peace
was restored, both states appointed
commissioners, but the dispute was
carried on until 1904, when 9 CON-
pIOulL.t WIS ItdCuSQ. nCLc CT
several similar disputes between the
two states besides those which nov
appear upon the map, and an agree
ment was reached by which Mas.a-
chusetts consented to surrender her
claim TO a strip of territory in
Woodstock and Suflield townships.
provided Connecticut would yield
her claims to the other tracts in
DISPUTE. 10 action, however, was
taken upon the report.
In 1910 the controversy was re-
vived by some legal proceeding, and
another commission was appointed,
but if it ever reached a conclusion
there IS no record TO he found. In
1920 a third commission was in
trusted with the settlement, and
after two years they decided upon
the present boundary line, which
was adopted by The legislature OF
both states.-Exchange.
