44. BUBBLERS: Cogswell’s Infamous Fountains
Manage episode 317858846 series 2949555
In the middle of downtown Pawtucket, there’s an old, no longer functioning drinking fountain that most people assume is just a statue. But it’s one of only a handful of remaining Temperance Fountains, donated to the city by a man who believed that the solution to drunkenness might just be a glass of fresh, cold water.
