about
''Marblehead was originally a fishing
village and the fishers squatted here
and there, wherever their fancy led
with no thought of order. The result
is that the old town is a maze of mar
row, crooked streets that run accord
ing to no law of man or nature.
This applies to the old town by the
shore, of course. The new town that
has spread out Boston way is as up
to-date as can be found anywhere.
There are long, wide, well-paved streets
and modern homes that are extremely
attractive. Still, l will admit, that the
old town with its ancient houses proves
the lure for the large body Of tourists
