Image caption: Haymarket Square. Above we give a faithful picture of Haymarket Square, Boston, one of those breathing places wisely left open by the authorities, for the purposes of ventilation and business convenience. The spot derives its name from the fact of its having been for years devoted to the purposes of the city hay-scales, and as a bazaar for the sale of hay. Hundreds of teams thus loaded might often be seen here at once. Now the scene has changed, and a fountain occupies the place of the hay scales, where old Ebenezer Clough (the last of the shoe buckles, as he used to be called), was wont to tally the weight and issue the city certificate to the hay-merchant.
