Portland, Me, claims the other two

birthplace, square three-storled
house on the corner of Fore and Han

Stephenson. In those days only the
doorway, the street, and a little beach
lay between II and the water. But for
30 or more years now Il has fallel

The poets parents were spending
the winter In this house. visiting his
aunt, Mrs. Stephenson, when he was
born on February u. 1907. A little
more than a year afterward they
moved TO the third house. which is to-
day known as q Longfellow house
There, in the old Wadsworth home ON
Congress street. the poet spent his
childhood and youth. Perhaps the two
houses are not often confused as they
were in the Monitor on September 1.
when a photograph Of the Congress-
street house was described as his
birthplace. There is no question about
IL; the honor belongs 10 the less we'll
known house on Fore street. But the
interest still centers on the Congress
street house. for II is bound up with
memories all have shared by reading

and other poems.

The Congress street house in Long
fellows boyhood was not In the heart
of the business district as II is now
but on the outskirts of the town, In
the midst OF the fields. From the win
dows Of the boys room one could look
then over the cove and the farms and
the woodlands toward Mt. Washing

view was unObstructed across the bay
TO White Head. Fort Preble and the
lighthouse on Cape Elizabeth. Happy
days were spent there with music ans
books and brother and sister. Nearby
were Deering woods. where the poet
tramped and bathed and dreamed. The
woods have been preserved Us city
park and the house has been refur-
nished as nearly as possible as 1t was
q little more than 100 years ago and
is now open to the public as a museum.
