Reminiscences of Taunton - In Ye Auld Lang Syne #265695

As quite a number of correspondents have been giving their recollections of Taunton as it appeared in the early part of the present century, and have confined their com munications principally to the locations of the streets and buildings, without giving the names of the owners, their business, occupations, social status, etc., I propose to go over the ground and supply, so far as I can, this omission, briefly, in a series of articles for the Republican. As I have no records to consult, and nothing but memory to rely upon, it is quite possible that some inaccuracies and mistakes may be found in these reminiscences of the past, as they will be solely the.recollections and impressions of early boyhood.
