The Alcotts called the place Hill
side" but when Hawthorne bought
1t in 1852 he renamed 1t ~Wayside."
Hawthorne made many changes
but his outstanding addition was a
tower" rising above the house. The
tower is just q large, square study.
To this study. it Is said. Hawthorne
climbed a ladder through q dark
and narrow passage.
Then, TO insure privacy, accord
ingf to tradition. he closed a trap
door and placed his chair on top OF
1t. A narrow. dark stairway later
replaced the ladder. Sometimes he
stood and wrote on a shelf desk
near window.
Hawthcrne's son. Julian, and later
his daughter, Mrs. Rose Lathrop.
lived in the place after his death.
Still later. il passed to George Par
sons Lothrop, Boston publisher.
whose wife was known as an author
under the name Margaret Sidney"
Most Of Mrs. Lothrop's work on
Five Little Peppers" was done in
this house.
Mrs. Lothrop's daughter. present
owner, has said she will sell the
place.

Some who have talked to Gov.
Moody recently say he does not in
tend soon to appoint a chairman Of
the industrial accident board, to fill
the vacancy caused by the death
or Chmn. j. w. Swayne several
months ago.
Others say a decision has been
reached to offer the Craftsmanship

casualty division of the insurance
department.
Gov. Moody so far has said
nothing.
Both the other places on the
board are filled by hold-over Off
Gals serving beyond ends of their
terms. These are j. H. Pittillo and
Mrs. Espa Stanford. both of Waco.
MI. Pittillo's term ended two years
ago. Sept. J., and Mrs. Stanford's
