![by Joseph Gresser BARTON — Monday morning people driving through Glover on Route 16 were slowed a little by traffic around Currier’s Market and the Busy Bee. That isn’t terribly unusual, but even a casual glance at the license plates of the cars that lined the side of the road made it clear something unusual was up. In addition to vehicles from neighboring states, some had come some distance, with the farthest from home — based on a very quick […]](https://bartonchronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/front-totality-cmyk-dpi-72-1400x912.jpg)
![by Kenzie Strange NEWPORT — Traffic was the first noticeable thing on eclipse day. The streets were unusually crowded.

Chips and lawn chairs, the eclipse in Glover
by Tena Starr It was a Saturday, a couple of days before the solar eclipse when I got a call at the Glover library where I work part-time. The woman asked if we’d mind if she sat in the library parking lot with her daughter to watch the eclipse.
