State Income Tax Examiner Ends Last Minute Rush

A line formed outside the courthouse office of State Income Tax Examiner Claude T. Cotton as he worked until seven o'clock Friday night to help filing returns. The March 15 deadline loomed while Cotton offered aid on federal forms too. He noted a general assembly of examiners in Montgomery from Monday to Wednesday for field instruction, and he would be away from Dothan until after the conference. The article also mentions that ancient Rome used milk from sheep and goats for drinking and cheese.

Longfellow Home Becomes Cambridge Rooming House

The 188 year old Longfellow house on Brattle Street Cambridge has been turned into a rooming house due to housing shortages. Miss Anna L Thorp Henry Wadsworth Longfellow grandniece approved by the Cambridge board of appeals to house eleven tenants including Radcliffe students after installing a fire escape. The property once housed Washington during his Cambridge command of the Continental Army and was built about 1759 by Col John Vassall. The Georgian facade and pilastered entrance mark a notable New England example. Longfellow wrote much of his Children Hour in the study and his grandson Henry Wadsworth Dana currently tenants there.
