INTRODUCTION
Probably no city in the Commonwealth blends the old and new as well as does Beverly. Founded in 1626, Beverly has handed down to its present gen- eration a worthy heritage of tradition and history. 'Not until 1900, however, did Beverly begin to show a rapid growth. Since then it has doubled in population. Recent figures place Beverly slightly over the 30,000 population class.
