Rainy Fourth of July Delights and Boston Memories
In Boston a rainy Fourth saddened many yet failed to dampen a boy’s noisy celebration while adults lamented lost outings and hats. The essay recalls the Merchants Exchange, built in 1842, its social role, and Edwin P. Whipple’s years there. It notes a Blue Hill Observatory time signal experiment and reflects on the utility of science amid pageantry. A weathered anecdote of a mother buying firecrackers highlights safety concerns, and a humorous aside ponders time spent checking watches by Snifkins and Martin Swift.
