He was a genial, jolly man with a
CHEEKY word for everyone. All the
children loved him and frequently
they would climb into his gig for a
ride home from school. His home
life was always pleasant and gather
ing his children around him for a
story, he would tell them of pioneer
days when modes of travel and means
of transportation were somewhat linn
tied. The following instance was re-
lated many times and has been handed
down through the years:
There were no roads from Cara
funk just a bride path over the
mountains Then grain had to be
brought TO Bingham to be ground at
the mill located on the mill brook
near Granville Goodrichs. When
Zack was twelve and his sister Sarah
eleven years old they used to take
the bags of grain and come down the
river in boat probably landing at
what is now the Taylor place There

and take the grain to the mill to be
ground. Their important errand
done they would paddle up the river
again and deliver the precious cargo
safely home. Especially considering
that the Carrying Place rapids are
between here and Caratnnk, grown
people would think this dangerous
task even in these days
