Box of Fish Sent To Firefighters

Event date: May 8, 1858

The Empire Boys of Lynn, whose visit to Brattleboro last autumn has not been forgotten, sent a box of fine fresh fish to the two engine companies as a token of their remembrance of the pleasant hours spent in their company here. The Hydropaths passed their portion of the fish over to Perry of the Brattleboro House, who served up a delicious chowder therefrom.
