BLACKSTONE'S " EXCELLENT SPRING 295 Mr. Henry H. Edes read the following paper, written by Mr. Michael J. Canavan, on — MR. BLACKSTONE'S "EXCELLENT SPRING." When Governor Winthrop's scurvy-stricken party of Puritans arrived at Charlestown from Salem towards the end of June, 1630, after a long voyage of eighteen weeks in cramped quarters, they set up booths and tents on the slope of Town Hill ; and not know- ing how to conduct a camp properly, in a short time " there was hardly a hut in which someone was not sick or dead." "And although people were generally very loving and pityful yet the sickness did so prevail that the whole were not able to tend the sick as they should be tended, upon which many died and were buried about Town Hill." " They notioned generally no water good for a town but running water," which they had not found in that locality. Mr. Blackstone dwelling on the other side of Charles River at a place called Shawmutt, where he had a cottage not far from a place called Blackstone's Point, came and acquainted the governor of an excellent spring there, withal inviting and soliciting him thither. Whereupon after the death of Mr. Johnson and divers others the governor with Mr. Wilson and the greater part of the church removed thither, whither also the frame of the governor's house in preparation at this town was to the discontent of some carried when people began to build their houses against the winter, and the place was called Boston.

  • A History of Forest Hills
    A HISTORY OF FOREST HILLS FOREST HILLS is the most complex area of Jamaica Plain.i Transformed by transportation over two centuries of time, Forest Hills challenges the definition of neighborhood. About a mile long and a half-mile across, Forest Hills has been shaped by geography more than any other part of Jamaica Plain. It sits in a valley at the confluence of two streams flanked by two hills on which have been landscaped two Boston landmarks and American institutions: The Arnold Arboretum and Forest Hills Cemetery. The hills that channeled the streams also channeled transportation routes beginning in 1806 with the Norfolk and Bristol Turnpike (today Washington Street). I. FOREST HILLS was for over a hundred and fifty years a crossroads in an obscure corner of Roxbury known as Canterbury. Three 17th century roadways converged in that valley – South Street (or the road leading out of the Dedham highway – today called Centre Street) along John Weld’s farm meandering along an irregular line into present day West Roxbury; Walnut Avenue, or the road to the Great Lotts wound its way through Roxbury highlands from Warren Street (the upper Road to Dorchester and Plymouth) at present-day Dudley Square; Walnut Avenue and South Street formed a crossroads about where the Arborway crosses South Street today. Coming off South Street a bit south of the crossroads was Walk Hill Street that ran to the Dorchester line at Harvard Street. At Forest Hills the traveler could go to Roxbury, Dedham or Dorchester. Walnut Avenue and South Street crossed over on wood plank bridges two steams that mark the valley.
