SAMUEL MILLER SAMUEL TUCKER JOSEPH BELCHER NEHEMIAH CLAP
Selectmen.
There are brooks and houses referred to in this description sufficient to enable us to decide that the road here laid out was nearly identical with Hillside street from Canton line to Mr. Samuel Cook's, and at this point joined the road laid out twenty-one years before, extending over Highland street to Canton avenue. Before the construction of this road it is supposed that there was what was called the "east way to Pon- kapog." Reference to this way is seen in the division of the three thousand acres of Blue Hill lands between Milton and Braintree. In running the division line the Commissioners say : --
Beginning at a heap of stones in the bound line of the easterly end of the three thousand acors of Blue Hill Land, &c. . .. we proseeded and ran a line west and by South nine degrees Southerly, and marked several trees in the line with letters, as aforesaid, until we came to a gray oak tree standing near the cartway leading from Milton to Poncapog, by the foot of one of the Blue Hills.
Following by compass the exact direction designated in the report of the Commissioners, we found at the foot of Chickatau- but Hill an old cart-path, which was traced to its beginning near the "Samuel Tucker" house on Hillside street. This was known as "Brook lane." It opened at the brook, south of Samuel Cook's, and passed easterly over C. L. Copeland's land, crossing Randolph avenue a little north of E. Snow's house, and, running into the woods easterly and southerly between Glover's Hill and Bear Hill, made its way into Braintree, and probably on the south side of Blue Hill river to Ponkapog. Doubtless before the road from the Stoughton line, now Hillside street, was laid out, there was passing in that direction by undeveloped drift-ways; but the travel southerly and easterly was probably by the line of this extinct pathway. At a later period, before the building of Randolph avenue and Forest street, the way to Randolph was from "White's Tavern " diagonally across the

Copeland estate to the big rock on Randolph avenue, near the Quincy line. Forest street was not opened until many years after the opening of Hillside from the Stoughton line.
ROAD AROUND WIGWAM HILL, 1764.
We the subscribers, finding it necessary to have a road through a pasture on the west side of Wigwam Hill, so called, to avoid going over the same as it now runs, Have Surveyed the same and have laid out a Public Road of two rods wide, the West Side of which road is to begin at a heap of stones on the stone wall about two rods to the eastward of a stone bridge on south side of said hill, thence in a strait line till it comes through a rocky piece of ground on the west side of said Hill, thence to the south corner of Oxen- bridge Thacher's land on the west side of the old road. June 26, 1764. STEPHEN MILLER, JEREMIAH TUCKER, ISAAC HOW.
Wigwam Hill is the first Hill south-west of Academy Hill, ex- tending from the pound to Pine-tree brook.
This road around the hill is now extinct. ] Traces of it are seen in the stony tract through the woods. It began two rods east of Pine-tree bridge and ran across the B. S. Rotch estate, a little south of the Rotch mansion, and across the land of Isaac C. Gulliver to the Thacher land, which was south as well as north of the brook, and terminated at some road near the Thacher estate, perhaps Canton avenue, or it may be Brook road. The meeting-house was still on the Vose lot. The object of the road seems to have been to avoid passing over the hill from the pine trees to the meeting-house, although the road over the hill along the parallel line was laid out in 1681, and a .second time definitely located in 1723. For some reason known to our fathers the road over Wigwam Hill was a hard road to travel.
SUSPENSION OF ROAD-BUILDING.
The inhabitants of the town, having provided themselves with such roads as were required for the convenience of travel and for the necessities of business, seemed to have turned their attention to other matters, and but little was done in road- building during the last half of the eighteenth century. Indeed, so often were they called from peaceful pursuits to the protec- tion of their liberties and the defence of their homes, that no time was left for public improvements ; besides, heavy drafts on their numbers and resources, continually made by the country, reduced them to a deplorable condition of weakness and poverty. But, with the opening of a new century and the return of more favorable conditions, attention was again directed to the needs of the town.
207
HIGHWAYS AND BY-WAYS.
In the period of turnpike roads two of these ways were pro- jected in Milton : the Blue Hill turnpike, latterly called the Randolph turnpike, and the Brush Hill turnpike.
BRUSH HILL TURNPIKE.
A petition for this road was made by Joseph Billings, Samuel Leonard, and others, Feb. 6, 1804, and a committee was chosen by the town to oppose the same.
Feb. 7, 1805, voted that we do highly disapprove of a turnpike being made from the road at the west end of the Blew Hills to the upper bridge, as petitioned by Samuel Leonard, and others.
The turnpike was located in 1805-9, and was continued as a turnpike until 1857, when its franchise was surrendered, and the surrender was accepted on condition that it be laid out as a highway. In 1859 the General Court limited the time for laying out the highway to one year from the passage of the act. With- in the designated period the County Commissioners laid out the road, defined and established its boundaries by stone monuments set at the termini and angles, and made the same a matter of record. [Vol. 8, p. 289.] It was accompanied with an accurate plan. [No. 303.] A new plan was made in 1884, delineating the true bounds of the road, which is on file at the Town Clerk's office.
BLUE HILL TURNPIKE, OR RANDOLPH TURNPIKE.
This turnpike, extending from the junction of the highways now known as Adams street and Canton avenue in Milton, through the easterly section of the town, towards Randolph, was laid out in the years 1804 and 1805, the portion through lands of Mr. Jeffrey near the northerly terminus having been located in the year last named.
Like most of the turnpike enterprises of that period the road had limited uses for travel. Its location was principally through wild land or woodlands, with a succession of heavy grades, long, steep hills and narrow viaducts, requiring frequent and expensive repairs.
Having fallen into comparative disuse it was laid out as a highway, as will appear by the records in the clerk's office, Dedham, in 1848.
This location of the road was of unequal widths, and not defined at the termini and angles by permanent stone bounds, such as were subsequently required by statute provisions. At
208
HISTORY OF MILTON.
the March meeting of the town in 1883, a committee was chosen to apply to the County Commissioners (with whom is the entire jurisdiction) to define the limits of the way by new location. Surveys have been had, and the accomplishment of the work has for several years awaited the final action of the County Commissioners.
Since its location as a highway the grades have been greatly improved and the viaducts widened, under the direction of the surveyors of the highways of the town, and many commodious and expensive dwellings have been recently constructed at the northerly section of the way.
ATHERTON STREET.
In 1811, Atherton street, then called Union street, was laid out from Canton avenue [then Middle street ] to Brush Hill street, "From Jedediah Atherton's strait to the turnpike, and from the turnpike strait to Oliver Houghtons." It cost $750, $300 of which was paid by the town, and $450 by sundry subscribers.
Centre street was laid out by the Court of Sessions in 1822, and was finished in 1824.

1 Mr. John M. Forbes built School street, and set out the elms shading the same in 1847-8. The whole tract on each side of School street, from the Russell estate on the east to the Swift land on the west, was purchased by Mr. Forbes Aug., 1842, at the auction of Dr. Holbrook's estate, except about half an acre belonging to John McQuirk, who lived in a stone house then standing on land now owned by Mr. Nathan Godfrey, corner of School street and Randolph avenue, where the well is now seen.
Mr. Forbes also secured this tract of Mr. McQuirk, and conveyed to him and his wife Sarah, in her right, Feb. 24, 1844, a tract of thirty-five acres, situated on Highland street, which he purchased of John J. Low, and at the Administrator's sale of the estate of Jazaniah R. Ford, in 1840. Through this land School street was laid ont. The North school-house lot was conveyed to the town of Milton by Mr. Forbes, in exchange for the lot on Milton Hill, on which stood the school-house, burned Nov. 23, 1846. The heirs of Abel Allyne, who gave the Milton Hill lot to the town, joined in the conveyance of the same to Mr. Forbes.

RAILROADS.
RAILROADS.
In early times connection with Boston was by private con- veyance or by the public stage. In 1847 the Dorchester and Milton Branch of the Old Colony Railroad was constructed, with stations at Milton Lower Mills and Mattapan.
At a later date the East Milton and West Quincy Branch of the Old Colony Railroad was built, with a station at East Milton.
The westerly part of the town and Brush Hill have railroad accommodations on the New York & New England, and Provi- dence roads at Mattapan, Hyde Park, and Readville. Thus the villages at the northerly and easterly extremities of the town are well supplied with railroad facilities, and the westerly part fairly so ; while the central and southerly sections are remote from any railroad station.
REPAIRS OF HIGHWAYS.
It appears by the records that, from the very beginning, and for one hundred and fifty years, the highways were kept in order by the direct labor of the citizens. The various neighborhoods took in charge the roads within their own limits, and each man above the age of sixteen years worked a definite time under the direction of surveyors appointed by the town. This plan was continued with more or less changes until about 1834.
April 4, 1810 - Voted that the work on the highways be apportioned on the polls and estates asit was last year -- namely that each Poll be assessed one day, and estate in the same proportion, that a Poll be allowed one dollar and fifty cents - a sufficient team two dollars and twenty five cents per day - that each Surveyor cause the stones to be picked up within the limits of the last week in every month from April to November - and that three fourths of the work be done by the last of July, the remainder by the last of November next.
It will be seen by the above that our predecessors seventy- five years ago had in mind several points of good road-building, viz. : fair pay for labor; stone-picking all over town eight times a year; and the bulk of the work done early, in season to be- come compact and solid before winter. This was their policy before and after the time here designated.
CHANGE OF PLAN.
March 8, 1834. A large committee of the Town recommended a de- cided change in taking care of the poor. To employ a superintendent, and have the able bodied paupers work on the roads.
210
HISTORY OF MILTON.
This plan was adopted. The Poor Department and Road Department were combined, and the Selectmen, who were Overseers of the Poor, were also Surveyors of Highways. The teams and implements for road-work were kept at the poorhouse, - one superintendent taking charge of both depart- ments ; if there was lack of help among the inmates, additional men were hired, and kept at the poorhouse. In this manner the roads were repaired for thirty-seven years.
SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHWAYS.
In 1872 Samuel Cook was appointed superintendent of the roads, with entire charge of this important work. He con- tinued in this office, with much success, for six years. The selectmen took charge of the work in 1878 as surveyors of the highways. In 1879 S. L. Tucker was appointed to this trust.
COMMISSIONERS OF HIGHWAYS.
In 1880 Oliver W. Peabody, George K. Gannett, and John Littlefield were elected by the town road commissioners. Under the charge of commissioners the roads continued until March, 1887.
The treatment of the question of roads on the part of the town has been both wise and liberal. Believing that good roads were needful for the prosperity and reputation of the town, they have wisely sought to entrust the care of them to those who have given to the subject time and study and much consideration, and then have furnished abundant means to carry out their plans. The town's appropriation for the repair of highways for the year 1881 was $15,000; for 1882, $18,500, repairs and construction ; for 1883, $15,000.
By careful observation of the management of the roads since the town has placed them in charge of special boards it has been possible to learn their working policy. It would seem to be as follows: -
First. Thorough treatment of wet and springy ground.
Second. Thin coatings of crushed stone or screened gravel for ruts and. low places, applied in short spaces, and worked down by sprinkler and roller.
Third. Reduction of steep acclivities and filling up of valleys in the roadway.
RESULTS.
The results of the great care and expenditure on our roads cannot fail to be manifest to all. Many places that from the

It is not asserted or intimated that our roads are perfect ; often there are portions of the highways that seem greatly in need of repairs. It is, however, unreasonable to expect that the long line of public ways in the town, now not much less than forty miles in length, can be everywhere, and equally, good through the whole season ; and not less unreasonable to expect that the best-made sections of road, subject to constant and heavy travel, will continue smooth, solid, and dry, without attention. It is only claimed that the system of working the roads adopted by the officers of the town is in the right direction, and, in the end, will secure as good roads as can be built. The purchase by the town of a steam stone-crusher has en- abled the commissioners to apply to the roads the best system of road structure. Some of these sections of new-made road, built by them, have been constructed on the "McAdam process," which consists in forming a road crust by layers of small angular stones, as they come from the crusher, with but little regard to the foundation or substratum of the road. Other sections are, in part, on the " Telford system," where the foundation is the main point. This consists of a pavement of large rough stones, laid by hand, with their bases down and their points upward; these are filled in with smaller angular stones, carefully packed, and the whole is covered with three or four inches of still finer stone. The road-bed is thoroughly drained. River street in Dorchester is made on this plan, and sections on Canton and Randolph avenues, Milton. Both of these roads, when consolidated, form a hard, smooth, and dur- able surface. Thus, by the wisdom and liberality of the town, we are being furnished with roads which are, and will be, a comfort to ourselves, and a pleasure to our friends from other towns whom we welcome to these pleasant drives. " There is no expedient which more powerfully conduces to the advancement of a people in civilization, or to the extension of their prosperity and national wealth, than the construction of good roads connecting the various centres of commerce and of industry about which they may have collected themselves. " Roads, in fact, may be considered as a system of veins and arteries by which all those principles necessary for the maintenance of the prosperity of a country are kept in circulation." 212 HISTORY OF MILTON. CHAPTER VIII. TAX-LISTS AND TOWN OFFICERS. F YOR the purpose of bringing before the town the names of the earliest inhabitants, and showing their financial con- dition, and the changes which have taken place in the lapse of years, we have here reproduced the first tax-list found in the records of 1679, with the tax-payers, and the sums paid by each. Then follows an exact copy of the taxes and tax-payers of the year 1700; a list of the tax-payers of 1750, and the sum raised by the town for that year; with a similar list and a like state- ment of money raised for the year 1800. The statements for later years will show how the town has risen from poverty to a degree of affluence ranking it, in valuation, among the highest of the Commonwealth, taking in view the number of inhabitants. Thus may be traced down, from the beginning, the changes in men and things; the passing out of sight of familiar names, and the advent of new men as generation after generation comes upon the stage of life, and then disappears, and the slow but positive growth into a condition of substantial prosperity. The Town Rate made for the year 1679, and here copied, was for the sum of sixteen pounds. Another rate was ordered for the same year, as follows : - At a public Town Meeting the 3: 12: 1678. it was legally voted that there should be a Rate made in the Town of Milton, levied upon the inhabi- tants, of thirty pounds for the us of M' Samuel Man ; which is and may be helpful to us in the us of the Ministry, and the Select-men were to make the rate ; and also it was voted that Mr. man should have one third part of his pay in mony, or as mony.
