Triumph of Francis Folly in Lowell Flood Defense
Lowell in January 3 marks James B. Francis completing fifty years with Locks and Canals. Born in 1815 near Oxford, he rose to chief engineer and agent, building massive wing walls and a 20 ton gate to guard Lowell during the 1785 flood replica in 1852. His work, ridiculed at first, averted devastation and saved lives and property worth millions. People recall the spike in the apple tree as symbol of foresight. The tale is recounted by local papers and shows Francis’s lasting impact on the city.
