Text Appearing Before Image:
rn part of New Hampshire, and the northeasternparts of Massachusetts, passed through Medford, and its dis-tance from Boston made it a convenient stopping place for travelingtraders. The Fountain House built in 1725 was a favorite resort,on the great thoroughfare between Salem and Boston. It was called -Fountain House from having a new sign, repre-senting a fountain pouring punch into a large bowl. The house is no longer standing. Brooks1 History says, Medford was favored in good tavern keepers. Journeying in former days, one found queer specimens of humanityamonc this unique class. Generally they were only variations of YankeeDoodle Some landlords were so full of sunshine that it was June all theyear round; others had minds so frost-bitten that there was no hope foryou, except in the January thaw. Here was one so anxious to oblige that he would spring to throw alasso around the moon, if you wished it; and then another so cross,that putting a question to him was like squeezing a lemon.
