Mr. Carpenter told of the town of Plymouth which he said once had | 14,000 people but gradually dwindled | until it now has but 3500, He describ- ed the various small hamlets making up the township, and told of “The Notch” on a plateau 1400 feet above | sea level where President Coolidge was born.

There never was a graded school or a high school in ! the town. Yet it produced five isters, many high government offi- cials, one governor, the present at- tey gencral and one president of the United States At the time of Calvin birth the “Notch” had fiv houses, a church, a school house and a cheese factory.
