Gated Home
At one time there was a gate on the stone wall surrounding the Newell-Hurd house on Main Street (next to library)
James Roger diary entry
26th May 1912
Fair and warm; wind variable from east to west. Mr. Lord preached to fair attendance on the necessity of strong convictions. I was out of sorts so was not at church. S.S. after. Collection: 27 cents. Evening service. 47 present.
Always liked that place as a kid.
I was always impressed by the stonework. I was happy & privileged to be part of New Ipswich's celebration this past weekend.
