Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Times in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts: Gleanings From History and Tradition New World which was at that time attracting so many adventurers from beyond the sea. Isaac Johnson had gathered together all that he had, and taken his portion of his grandfather's estate to take himself and his frail young wife to America and establish there a home for themselves. After their arrival, he made himself useful to the government and received as remuneration a grant of several hundred acres of land lying in the northwest part of what was afterwards called Shrewsbury. The Lady Arbella found refuge for a time in Salem in the home of friends, but she soon faded away like a delicate tropical flower in the cold, hard life which she found in New England. Her amiable and heart-broken husband followed her in one month, his grave being the first In King's Chapel burying ground in Boston. It is pleasant to feel that the story of the charming Lady Arbella is even so remotely connected with any part of our town, though it is probable that neither of them ever saw the Shrewsbury land.

Download or read book A New Guide to Shrewsbury Classic Reprint written by R. Bradley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Guide to Shrewsbury It must not, however, be confounded with modern ideas or uses of a Town Council, with which it has not and never had the least to do. Its name arises from the fact that it was anciently used as the occasional residence and court of the Lord President of the Marches of Wales. Although the principal seat of the Presidents was the Castle of Ludlow, they were ac customed to hold here a court one term in the year for the despatch of business affecting this district, as they did another usually at Bewdley, and occasionally at Hereford. There is reason to believe that the builder of the Council House was a Mr. Peter Newton, himself a member of the Marches Council, about the year 1500, and by him or his son subsequently conveyed to the family of Knight, by whom, again, it was granted to Sir Andrew Corbet, Knt., vice-president of the Marches and it was probably from a member of the family of Corbet that the place, coming by grant to the Shrews bury Town Council, was eventually appropriated as the residence of the Lord of the Marches on his yearly visit to the town. But the Town Council appear to have divested themselves of their interest in the property in 1583, and since then it has been held by various private owners. The buildings form three sides of a small court. They are approached by a picturesque old timbered gateway, said to have beena Rounosabout Ramble.

This is what no fellah can find out. The nearest that any one ever came to it, was the college student who hadn't learned his lesson, and when asked this question, said he did know, but had forgotten it. Unfortunately his memory has since failed. We class ourselves with the know-nothings on this point, but we propose to try the simplest first - the Storage Battery - but in doing this we take no sides with any of the con tending forces in the mighty struggle that is going on for supremacy. We don't know, but we think the storage battery has a great future before it, and if this proves to be true, all who have storage bat tery patents will bring out their systems. We have studied some what relating to the contest between stationary power and locomotives just sixty years ago, in England, on the Liverpool and Manchester railway, when George Stephenson came out triumphant, and if we can aid in a similar contest regarding electric power, we are strongly disposed so to do.

Leighton (so well known as the best authority on Shrewsbury Antiquities), who made many additions, and it is a source of deep regret that his death took place in the early part of the present year, before the work was completed.
