STORIES OF THE HOMESTEADS Broughton--Dickinson--Henry The house on the west side of the street at the "North End" is now the home of Mrs. David Henry. (See Directory of Industries.) Thomas Broughton was the first to make a home on this lot, which extended to the pond in the meadows, still called "Broughton's." In 1693 some "trading Indians" were camping on the hills across the river, and "ab' midnight (on the 6th of June) yy came upon ym & killed Thos. Broughton & his wife & Xdren 3." The frequency of Indian raids did not enhance the value of Deerfield real estate. After Broughton's death, this property was inventoried at 20, but three years later it was sold for "a mare at 3, and new cart wheels at 2. Here dwelt in later days Colonel Thomas Wells Dickinson, who served his country as commissary and soldier in the Revolution. (See Frary House.) From papers left by him, we learn that at a critical time his superior said that unless he, Dickinson, could do "something extraordinary" in securing supplies, Washington would be driven from the field. He did accomplish the "extraordinary," and delivered the needed cattle at Hatfield. Afterwards as lieutenant, he heard read at West Point--perhaps from the Orderly Book now in Memorial Hall--that "Treason of the Blackest Die was Yesterday Discovered," thus being a part of the beginning and seeing the end of Benedict Arnold's career. Wells--Ashley Next south of the Broughton house, in 1693, dwelt the family of Lieutenant Thomas Wells, who until his death, in 1690, was commander of the soldiers here. His commission, signed by Governor Andros, is in Memorial Hall. On the night when the Broughtons were killed, his widow Hepzibah and three children were "knocked on the head and...

Download or read book Left Gay and Green written by Allen Young and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allen Young has held a number of interesting careers and roles. He has worked as a reporter for the Washington Post and Liberation News Service, protested the Vietnam War, edited several gay anthologies, joined the "no nukes" movement, and started a commune. Now, from his Octagon House in the North Quabbin region of Massachusetts, he provides insights into his most memorable moments. Young's journey begins in a surprising place. He grew up on a poultry farm in New York's Borscht Belt. His childhood gave him not only a lifelong love for the great outdoors but also his first political education. His Communist parents fostered in their son a passion for standing up to the bastions of power and fighting for the oppressed. After six years at Columbia and Stanford and a sojourn to South America, Young devoted himself wholeheartedly to a variety of causes. He gave up a reporter's job at the Washington Post to join the New Left's underground press, edited pioneering gay liberation anthologies, and put down new roots in one of the most rural parts of Massachusetts. Through it all, Young constantly explored what it meant to be "left, gay, and green." His career, political pursuits, and relationships all took him in surprising new directions, but even as his identity was changing, Young never lost his true sense of self.

Book Hoosiers and the American Story

Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.
