Excerpt from History of Rowe, Massachusetts For many years the writer has had a great love for the Rowe hills, and in his many walks and drives has accumulated items of both historical and personal interest. The sight of an old cellar-hole with its pink fire-weed and neighboring lilac bush has always held a solemn fascination, and has brought up pictures of a once happy family. "Near yonder thorn, that lifts its head on high, Where once the sign-post caught the passing eye, Low lies that house where nut-brown draught inspired, Where gray-beard mirth and smiling toil retired, Where village statesmen talk'd with looks profound, And news much older than their ale went round." Then too, the roads became a subject for study; how the earliest highways were laid out in straight lines with little regard for hill summits, and how an early philosopher fetched a kettle to town meeting to prove that the distance around a hill was no greater than over it. The interest of the village school teacher in Rowe's early history and her efforts to arouse the same interest in her pupils, have been the stimulus for setting down these items on paper, in the hope that thereby their love for their native town will be increased.
