G. Gooch Testifies Before the Middlesex County Commissioners in the Hexring on Harvard Square Valuations The values aet upon property, in the vicinity of Harvard square by former u-aor Joshua G.

Club, and City Solicitor Pevey of Cambridge, at the hearing on the appeals from the valuation et on Old Cambridge property by the local Board of Assessor, whicn was heard by the Middlesex County Commissioners at Hast Cambridge, this morning.
