MORE ABOUT HORSE SHEDS
Our recollection of old-tiroe horse
sheds at Mansfield Grove, hard by
the East Haven river, before the
days of trolley cars is shared by Bob
Stevenson.
I'VE remember those sheds. We
used to hold the annual great family
picnic there. with the uncles and the
aunts and the cousins and the great
aunts, and the grandmothers and
the grandfathers and heaven only
knows how many kids of all sizes
and degrees Of inevitable addiction
to falling Off the rocks into the sea,
getting lost in the far meadow
reaches, or adventuring in some
boat to look for pirate treasure or
distant Thimble islands," writes
Bob.
The New Haven members of the
clan would roll out in the grandeur
OF the finest that they could hire at
Kinks livery. with fringed Surveys,
red.striped yellow wheels, shiningl
black enameled dashboards andl
ribbon-tied whips in fare sockets.
Aunt Eliza made the clam chow
der in an iron pot braced on stonesI
over a driftwood Are. enough for the
entire picnic. The rest of the food
came in large, heavily laden has.
kets. travelling under carriage seats,
But any further recollections of what
we had to eat at those long grove
tables would only make US sadder IN
these days Of rationing."
Elmer Twitchel suggests that we
let Japan keep the emperor and one
end Of the horse. Or maybe we
should take him off that horse and
put him on mouse.
NO DOUBT OF IT.
