Farming, too, except on a very small scale, has become a thing of the past; although the raising of vegetables is carried on to some extent. A lady is still living who remembers riding home from a party in an oxcart; but oxcarts have been succeeded by carryalls and truck wagons, and they, in tui'n, are being supplanted by automobiles and power trucks. However, the old days were good old days of peace and com- parative contentment; and we of the living should not lose sight of them in our scramb...le for that which is just ahead of us. To the section of which we write, in 1639, nineteen yaars af- ter the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, and one year after the incorporation of the town of Yar- mouth, came Yelverton Crowe, the pioneer, who was not only a man respected by his fellow cit- izens, but one who accepted and performed well liis duties as a citizen. He not only served his town in several official capacities, but served, too, as a soldier in King Philip's war. It would be exceedingly appro- priate to erect some memorial to his memory in the cemetery where so many of the early settlers quite probably including himself are buried, and to mark the his- toric sites of the neighborhood, before they are altogether lost to liuman knowledge.
