Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Town of Fitchburg, Massachusetts The writer has been induced to undertake the present work by a desire to save from the oblivion to which they were hastening, some of the events connected with the history of this town. Many of these are treasured up in the memories of a few aged people, and must, in the course of nature, soon be inevitably lost, if not preserved in a connected and tangible form. Though the number of these relies of other days is now small, much information has been derived from them, and much more might have been obtained, had inquiries been commenced a few years earlier. The writer has had full access to the proprietors' books, and to the town records of Lunenburg and Fitchburg. Oral and written information has been furnished with the utmost cheerfulness, by all those in possession of facts worthy of note. The labors of another who has preceded me in this department, have made my path one of comparative ease. In 1831, Nathaniel Wood, Esq., in a series of lectures read before the lyceum of this town, gave an interesting and discriminating sketch of the events connected with its history. Many circumstances were collected and preserved by him, which would have been lost to the present writer.
