“I know not the Reason but there is some Strange Attraction between the North Parish and my Heart. It is a remarkable Spot. It has vomited Forth more Fire than Mount Etna. It has produced three mortals, Hancock and two Adams’s, who have, with the best Intentions in the World, set the World in a blaze.“
– John Adams to Abigail Adams, ca. 15 August 1782
