Note.—In the account of the Allyn family I inadvertantly stated
that Capt. Samuel Mayo bought his house lot of John Ca.sely. This is
a mistake. John Casely's house lot w-a.s on tlie South side of the road.
Itconlained four acres, the south-we.st corner being near the Jaii lands.
An investigation of this noatter, seems ti confirm the trndition that
the present road between Jail Hill and the old Sturges tavern was a
private way belonging to the Lotbrops, before the year 1686, when It
was laid out as a public highway. In 1654 there was a highway from
near the Savings Bank Building to the wharf now owned by Josiah
Hinckley, and the house lots were bounded by that road.
