In the restoration of Joseph Car- penter's store of ancient date situ- ated on the Norwich Town Green, the architect is succeeding in a large de- gree in putting the building back to the time when “the town green with its meeting-house, court-house, post- office, Yail, liberty tree, three tay- erns, four or five stores, and printing offices, was the center where all the excitements of the town culminated.” Old Features Restored. Work on the old store, begun Aug. 27, has brought to light certain in- teresting facts. Marks of partitions are evidence of curiously shaped rooms. Places where were doors and windows were unexpectedly found, and these are being recut making ad- ditional light in the building. A trap door and down a ladder to the cellar which has been cleaned and put in order, a way to the loft, a new floor. are among the Improvements. The building has been shingled, clap- boarded newly, the foundation made firm, and new sills installed. Here is the old chimney with the forge of the silveremith, Gardner Carpenter, who in 1804 plied his trade. In one part of the building is seen the place where his bench probably stood, also the table for the variety of articles on sale. On the other side his brother Joseph kept groceries. It is said by the oldest resident on the -Green that in_former times the principal articles for sale wers Porto Rico molasses and Jamica rum. Admitted to Town -in 1723. An early record of the name Car- wenter occurs in the manual of tie First church, where it gives the date of the admission to it membership of “Sarah John Carpenter.” John Car- penter who. came to Norwich after the first settlers was “admitted an inhabitant” by public vote the same year, 1723. In 1772 Joseph Carpenter buys boards and pays “for stoning the cellar; in 1773, pays for stepstones and shingle nails,” and it is as. 6umed built in that year the shop lately owned by his grandson, Joseph Carpenter, 3rd. He received in 1787 from the First ghurch a 999 year lease of the land oh which his building stands. One of Three Traders. While Joseph occupied one side of the shop, his brother Gardner occu- pled the other part for mercantile trade, and as Miss Oaulkins notes, was one of the three principal trad- ers in the town, the other two being John Pefit and Dudley Woodbridge. The silversmith’s stock was “gold necklaces, beads, stone earrings, rings, teaspoons, smelling bottle, specicals, stone nubs, bonnet pins, brass hol- birds, knee-buckles, ~stock buckles, clocks, watches, etc.” He advertises in The Norwich Packet, engravings taken from original paintings on the spot of four different views of the battles of Lexington and Concord. A Valuable Service. . This generation and even more the generations to come will appreciate the service rendered by the contri- butors out of town and in town, and Dy the success of the architect in re- storing the building as it used to be, maining link on the to call to mind the vanished life of'the settlers. for this store is now the only re- early f:_‘!!|Hmlhmunnmmmnmmunumnnumummmnmmmummn:1llm1lnuumuumuuumumml!nuummmummmmmnumlunumml S A A Tt RRanse.s Wezs Yours One Among the exclusive Crawford features that have made this range preferred above all others are:— 4 convenient gas end oven, equipped with new and improved gas broiler. to hold the food at any required distance from the flame -without touching the pan, without bending over.
