Rus SUBURBAN TO HADDON HEIGHTS N ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the fine representation of suburban towns in Haddon Heights High School and for the indebtedness our school feels to the outlying districts, it is with deep gratitude that we use as our theme suburban life. We wish to thank those who so kindly helped us in the compiling of these histories. Since Haddon Heights is the focal point of all student activities, we shall naturally begin our historical trip from here. HADDON HEIGHTS was incorporated as a borough March 2, 1904, from parts of Haddon and Newton Townships, with Benjamin H. Lippincott as its first mayor. He suggested the name of Prospect Ridge, but the descendants of the Haddonfield section succeeded in having it called Haddon Heights. Haddon Heights was enlarged by adding the Fairfield tract in 1925. Characterized by progressiveness, it has grown to such an extent that it boasts a fire department, twenty-one miles of paved streets, a police department, three schools, a public library, ambulance service, fifteen hundred residences, private waterworks, modern sewage disposal plant, Borough Hall, a fine park, and Roman Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, Christian Scientist, Methodist, and Presbyterian churches. Progress-industry is the word on the official seal of BARRINGTON, the town which immediately adjoins Haddon Heights on the east side of the White Horse Pike. Its original name was Dentdale, a station on the Philadelphia 8: Reading Railroad, a narrow gauge road which boasted two trains a day. In 1890 Mr. Burr Haines sold his 112-acre farm to a syndicate, which cut the farm into building lots. Burrwood was proposed for its name, but through the influence of Wil- liam Simpson, a native of Barrington, Massa- chusetts, the new settlement was called Barring- ton. On March 27, 1917, it was created from Center Township into a borough, with Edward Dold as its mayor, and a council of seven mem- bers. Barrington now has a population of 2,252 people. It has a post office, fire hall, borough hall, two schools, a World War Memorial, a sewage disposal plant, and a Presbyterian, Metho- dist, and Brethren Church. Following next in line going south on the White Horse Pike we approach LAWNSIDE, the only incorporated negro colony in New jersey. Lawnside in its embryo was a tract of land sold to negroes for a small amount of money by Ralph Smith, of Haddonfield. Runaway slaves found refuge there before the Civil War and called it Free Haven. After I.ee's surrender it became known as Snow Hill and in 1907 it was changed to Lawnside by XX'-, Nxxyixeaa I6l
