Was the Tarbell House among ‘the mothers of all private homes’ in New Ipswich? It seemed that way to us as kids walking by on our way to school. But it looked rather unloved and empty in those days. So much interesting and historic architecture exists throughout the Town as well as family farms on the perimeter, blacksmith shop, old schoolhouses and businesses, etc. If I were a Rockefeller, I’d find a way to preserve it all and integrate it into the living, breathing, continuing story of New Ipswich.
Sad story. Ruth Winship was last seen buying a 'strong drug' at a pharmacy in Winchendon on Dec 28. No evidence of foul play. I suspect she suffered from depression which can be more severe when the days are shorter, known a seasonal affective disorder. The Appleton story is also a sad one. Too bad it failed on its second try. I suspect mismanagement and a poor marketing campaign doomed it.

Ruth's body was found in a pasture in Winchendon on Nov 1 the following year.
