Description:  "Josiah Adams appears at the door of his office talking with his friend Isaac Fiske of Weston, a lawyer who was for many years Register of Probate for Middlesex County. Captain Bell stands in the foreground sketching. Col. David Brewer appears riding in his chaise and Dr. John B. Kittredge appears on horse-back.

At the foot of the Common is the third meeting house, and at the left are the original Academy building, and the gun-house, which latter now constitutes part of the ell of the dwelling house of Mr. Wallace Nutting."
