Sale and purchase agreement between Alvin Johnson and Albert Montague. The agreement will transfer ownership of Johnsons North Main Street Brick mansion to Montague, a Sunderland native. The document also states that Johnson will give $2000 to the town of Sunderland to "stimulate the said town to build a High School House".
Sunderland did build "Johnson Hall" which served a a town hall and school into the mid 1980s.
The building also housed the town library until the Graves Memorial Library was built in 1900.
