FARRINGTON, 1866, FACTORY SYSTEM.

James McIntyre

The farmers they now all make rich Since Farrington went to Norwich, And the system first there began Of making cheese on factory plan;

He came from Herkimer county, To Canada he was a bounty; Norwich village moved but slow, Till railways made it quickly grow,

And industries here now take root, The township's famous for its fruit.
