Excerpt from Poems
Silent Way was a beautiful wooded lane just south of Keene Village, and a favorite walk. Reference is here made to the cutting away of the trees, leaving it simply a bare road. Mr. Wheelock gave a park to the town of Keene, and has planted it with many varieties of trees and flowers with his own hands. He was an enthusiastic skater, and the Gray-haired Skater was suggested by his skating at an advanced age. His niece and nephew have country houses at Nelson, N. H., near Breed's Pond. Nelson Sketches describes that country. Gad Newell was a well-known preacher in Nelson, who is buried in the old graveyard near their houses. Julia, John, Rosamond, Elliot, and Alice are his great-nephews and nieces.
