About This Item

Salem, MA: The Gazette, 1855. 14 x 23 cm. Humorous account of life--and death-- in Danvers, Massachusetts in the latter part of the 18th century and early 19th century. Author describes Danvers Plains bordered by Tapleyville, Putnamville, Danversport, Crane River and Walnut Grove Cemetery. He talks about old-fashioned elections-- a day when thousands gathered on Danvers Plains to see the horses run, mountebanks tumble, fandango whirl around and drinking of egg-pop, punch and something stronger. He tells about Col. Murphy, who may have commissioned himself, African by descent, a fixture of ""Lection Day"". . Catalogs: History.
