In the sidewalk at the corner of j
Cony and Bangor streets is a square '
stone, that without doubt has been i
the cause of wonderment in the
minds of many passersby. L. J. I
Crooker explains the stone’s presence 1
as follows:' “All I can ascertain
about the square stone in the side- |
walk at the corner of Cony and Ban- ;
gor streets is that it indicates the j
corner and a change made in the j
southerly line of the lot by a survey -
of 1867. It was placed there in 1867 !
after a new survey had been made, j
The stone was marked to indicate i
both the old and new southerly lines j
of the lot. Before each date is a line \
cut to indicate the westerly direction
of each line.” The dates On the:
stone aro 1794 and 1867. The infor- i
mation was furnished Hon. Frederick
W. Plaisted, postmaster, by L. J.
Crooker.
