	Drew's Point.  Mentioned Sept. 7, 1738, when John Downing of Newington
and his wife Elizabeth conveyed to Benjamin Mathes 50 acres of land in 
Durham, "Beginning at Oyster river, near ye Pint cald Drew's Point," and 
running along a highway from the river between said land and the lands of 
Joseph Stevenson and Thomas Footman till it came to the highway "from ye
falls to ye ferry called Bickford's ferry,"  bounded north by the river, 
and east by Caleb Wakeham's land, -- which fifty acres formerly belonged to 
James Langley, and was part of the estate of his father James Langley.
