Synopsis
Excerpt from Picturesque Worcester, Vol. 2: Complete in Three Parts, With 2, 500 Illustrations; North
All the livelong afternoon we wended our way through groves of hem lock and pine, across sandy plains, over hillsides covered with orchards, past farms teeming with the ripening harvest, till we approached the suburbs of Athol. We understood that the town was just the other side of a long hill that stretched as a barrier across our front.
