Landslide Closes Hill Street Tunnel

 
June 13, 1910, Hill Street Tunnel

A landslide closes the Hill Street tunnel, which was demolished when the “nose” of Bunker Hill was removed in June 1955. 

June 13, 1910: Police find that the athletic burglar who was caught the other day has refined tastes in reading. No funny papers or issues of Argosy for him. The incarcerated scholar asks for Edward Gibbon’s “History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire,” Volume Three. Or a little Suetonius. 

 June 13, 1910, Literate Burglar
