Excerpt: ...which the family moved on its completion in the fall. Mr. Ludden died Oct. '25, 1848. The farm descended to his son Daniel, then to Daniel Jr., and thence to Myron Ludden the present owner. The Missing Hen Coop. Some sixty years ago a man by the name of Richard Mills owned what is now the Joseph Butler place at the foot of Pleasant street. He occupied the old two-story red house, long since torn down, which stood a few rods north of the present dwelling. He was a mason as well as farmer and was frequently employed in the village to relay chimney tops. He had a habit of often calling to his tender in a loud voice for more mortar, which he contracted to ' More mort!' This attracted the attention of boys and young men and they took up the cry so that it soon became a byword, and ended by their calling Mr. Mills "Old Mort." This was not agreeable to him; in fact he was wrathy and threatened to horsewhip all offenders. In addition to this it is said he committed an unjustifiable act at the swimming place of the boys at Moose pond. On his farm south of his house stood a good sized hen coop which one morning was missing. During the night it had been transported on poles in the hands of indignant young men and placed on the common in front of the Jenks tavern. A sign also had been nailed to the building which read, "Hen Market." Some of the tavern boarders were up earlier than usual that summer morning to know the meaning of such vociferous cock crowing notes as came wafted in through open windows. In the dim twilight they discerned the outlines of the coop and in a short time a crowd had gathered to see, hear and discuss the unusual affair. After considerable sport Capt. Jeremiah Grout, a kind-hearted gentleman living opposite...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketches Relating to Spencer, Mass, Vol. 2: 1902 My first volume of Historical Sketches having been accorded a more generous welcome than anticipated, I have thereby been encouraged to continue the work of rescuing the past from being forgotten and of giving honor to whom honor is due. Bear ing in mind the motto expressed on the first page, I do not know in what direction I could have rendered my native town better service, and while this volume is largely a compilation, I trust on that account it will prove to be all the more interesting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compelling, in-depth analysis of Shaker villages that sheds light on how communal attitudes helped to liberate Shaker women. Drawing on archival material from Shaker members, observers, and apostates, noted historian Suzanne R. Thurman offers a scholarly yet eminently readable study of life in two of the oldest, most prominent American Shaker villages: the Harvard and Shirley communities of Massachusetts. Even as she delves into the complex fabric of Shaker social life, Thurman challenges traditional perceptions of gender roles within the community. Shaker spiritual and social ethics, she points out, strongly favored women. Celibacy and an androgynous theology, for instance, allowed androgynous social roles to evolve. Another key factor was the lively arena of nineteenth-century reformers and intellectuals in nearby Boston. With admirable detail, Thurman documents the relationship that grew between these forward thinkers and the Believers. Their influence, she argues, enlightened Shaker consciousness and empowered their women of Harvard and Shirley with opportunities denied them in the world at large. The author also explores links, particularly economic, between Shakers and the greater American society. Treating Harvard and Shirley Believers as an idiosyncratic part of the nation rather than a fringe group, Thurman sheds new light on their constant struggle to be in the world but not of it.
