 I ROM the earliest times Lake Memphreoiagog and its outlet was one of the important 
 
 highways of communication between the settlements of the St. Lawrence and 
 
 those of New England. The first record of this route being travelled is in 1692, by 
 
 a band of Iroquois Indians on their way to attack the Ai)en(jauis ; again by 
 
 Rogers and his rangers in 1759, on their return from burning the Mission village of 
 
 St. I'rancis. ^ 
 
 Ebenezer Hovey, with his family, settled a few miles from the outlet of the lake in 
 1793, and about the same time the early Bolton settlers erected the first mill, and built 
 the first dam across the river, if we except what is called the old Indian dam, constructed 
 presumal>ly to afford assistance in the capture of fish. In 1796 or '97, Ralph Merry, a 
 native of Lynn, Mass., purchased the mills, and in 1799, March 20th, came in from 
 St. Johnsbury, \ t., witli his familv and thus became the first permanent settler of whom 
 we have any account. 
 
 During the first ([uarter of the present century many of the older families came in from various 
 parts of the New England States, forming a hamlet know as the " Outlet " It is interesting to note 
 that a "forge" was in operation in 1809, on the shore of the lake, and that good iron was produced. 
 Ihere were no roads to speak of, and it was not until 18 16 that the first wagon went from Magog 
 Outlet to Irost Village, by way of the north side of Orford Pond. Before the bridge was built the 
 river was crossed by fording at Merry Point. Ralph Merry, Jr., is entitled to the honor of teaching 
 the first school in the year 18 18, and in .>+ the red school house was built on the site now 
 occupied by the Pepin block. 
 
 In T820, John Wetherbee erected the first store, on the river bank, near the north end of the 
 present bridge, and was probably the first postmaster; the first mail passed from Stanstead to 
 Montreal, via Magog, on horseback, May 2nd, 1823, About this time also several industries were 
 m operation -a saw mill, grist mill, carding and fulling mill and tannery being among the number.
