![H.A. Hovey Co.<br />
2/4/2010<br />
<br />
These signs are hung inside the Great Rotunda of Faneuil Hall Marketplace in Boston. I did some research of H.A. Hovey Co. and found:<br />
<br />
The earliest reference I found was of Horatio Atwell Hovey who was born in 1820 and "worked for several years in the butter trade in his father's stall in the Faneuil Hall market... and at 21 became a partner with his father." [Google Books]<br />
<br />
The latest reference was this:<br />
<br />
Varnum Russell Mead, retired owner of H. A. Hovey Co. of Boston and Cambridge, died Dec. 18 [2006] after suffering a fall near his home on Martha's Vineyard. Following World War II, Mr. Mead went into business with his late father, Francis V. Mead, at H.A. Hovey Co. located next door to Durgin Park in the Quincy Market. Mr. Mead sold his business and retired in 1984.

![The Lieutenant William F. Callahan Tunnel...<br />
2/3/2010<br />
... is one of three tunnels beneath Boston Harbor in Boston, Massachusetts. It carries motor vehicles from the North End to Logan International Airport. The tunnel was opened in 1961. It was named for the son of Turnpike chairman William F. Callahan, who was killed in Italy just days before the end of World War II. Operatic Tenor, William Flavin, of Milton Mass. sang the Star Spangled Banner and Oh Danny Boy at the opening of the Callahan Tunnel in 1961.<br />
