Davidson College gave him a grant for summer travel and study so he went out to Monett, Mo., to visit the colony there and to Atlanta, Ga., and Richmond to look up some of the settlements of the colonial days.

Just a paragraph from a letter from Line Wilson in San Francisco should bring back memories of days when everyone didn't climb into an auto to tear up or down to Hanover:

"I took Jane, my daughter, back to Lyndonville for Christmas while I went on to New York. I rode on the B & M from Lyndonville all the way to Springfield and it was the first time I had been over that part down to Norwich since I left college. After we left Wells River I spent most of my time looking out the window refreshing my memory. I had a swell time thinking back about 30 years and I could still remember the river and the twists and turns before you get to Norwich. The station was changed and there were no stage coaches going up the hill to Hanover, but the river and the country looked the same."
