* W. F. Stone, Esq., of Cambridge, who has made diligent research into the history of his family, obligingly writes, that Elder John first built at Otter Neck, a half mile down the riv- er, a "ford way " being near it. He probably built again on the hill by the Lannum road, near Mr. Fisk's, on the spot from which was removed, to
the mill village, the house recently sold by Mr. Abner Stone to the prop. of the Railroad. Two or three rods S. from that spot, he built what was called in ancient deeds, "the old house," whose cellar hole is still re- membered. He is supposed also to have built at the Ox-bow, and, soon after, another house nearer the mills.
