So far as their routes are concerned, these highways still exist, monuments to the early engineers who graded them over hills and mountains. But only the lines of the roads remain as a memorial. The old-time surfaces would not last a day under the stress of modern motor car travel. In their-early days, there were but few bridges, most of the highways being directed so as to cross rivers and 'creeks at shallow water. But the increase of traffic on these roads.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Some Historical Spots in Lower Merion Towership, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania Lower Merion Friend's Meeting House stands on the Old Lancaster Road (now called Montgomery Pike), just beyond Merionvile, Montgomery Country, Pennsylvania. This is the oldest church edifice in the State, and was erected in 1695, on the site of a still older log meeting-house, built in 1683. This quaint, picturesque structure is in the form of a cross. Its walls are made of jointed stone, two feet thick, and its window-panes are of the small leaded type. The coating of plaster (which really disfigures it) was added in 1829, when, as a little tablet in the side of the wall tells us, it was "repaired." Inside, above the elders' seats, two pegs are pointed out as those upon which William Penn hung his hat when he preached to a Welsh congregation (many of whom could not understand him.) One of these pegs was stolen by a relic-hunter during the Centennial, but another was made from a piece of the relic-hunter became conscience-stricken and returned the original peg and it now may be seen in its former place. The name Merion, given to this township by the early Welsh colonists, is derived from that of Merionethshire, Wales.
