However, we have to tear ourselves away at last from the great Tufts, and are soon descending the hill. As we return, if we keep our eves open, we will see what we were sure to miss before, the old white powder-house, built of brick, and having the shape of a large loaded cartridge, standing of course on its flat end. This is an interesting piece of antiquity. It was originally used by a miller...
