Description	"Really time flies fast. Tis but a day it seems since we three were boys . . . . But a day seems to have elapsed since meeting with our neighboring boys, we . . . engaged ourselves in the more active sorts of "playing ball" or "goal." Carter, L. A., The Discovery of a Grandmother [H. H. Carter, Newtonville MA, 1920, pp 239-240. Per Seymour, Harold – Notes in the Seymour Collection at Cornell University, Kroch Library Department of Rare and Manuscript Collections, collection 4809. From this note, the excerpts appear to be from a journal kept in 1835-1836 by Albert Ware Paine, born 1813. Note: This item needs to be reconciled with #1820S.12 above. Newtonville is part of the modern Newton, MA. ]]
