Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Old Town of Derby, Connecticut, 1642-1880: With Biographies and Genealogies History is the record of experiences in the ages that are past; and experience, while varying through the changing of circumstances, is a teacher worthy to be carefully studied, and to whose voice it is wise to listen. The person who is indifferent to the past is too selfish to be of much benefit to the world in the present, and too heedless of wisdom to accomplish much for human good in the future. One object sought in the writing of this book has been the promotion of reflection on the past, which would result, it is believed ln careful consideration of what shall be the life of the future, for it would be un pardonable to give a book to the world without some high motive of good, in the mind of the author. How well or poorly the purpose may have been attained is not a question now, the existence of the motive is the only fact of which we can be certain.

Excerpt: ...that came with the clay and the dust; But add--as you may perhaps--to the verse, For his having lived in it, the world was no worse." STEPHEN N. SUMMERS, A native of Trumbull, Conn., and one of the first settlers in Birmingham, began the journey of life with no equipments except his head and hands. When only fifteen years of age he hired to a farmer for $6.00 per month, and at the end of seven months took the farmer's note for $40.00. He then earned $12.00 and used them for expenses during the winter while attending school. The next spring he hired to another farmer for $10.00 per month, which in time amounted to $70.00, $60.00 of which he placed at interest, and then, having $100.00 at interest, he claims to have been "the richest day of his life." Soon after he went to Bridgeport and learned his trade, keeping his $100.00 at interest until he was twenty-one. At the age of twenty-three he came to Derby with a capital of about $400.00, and after being here six or eight months a kind farmer from Huntington advised him to build such buildings as he needed, and offered to lend him the amount of money he might desire in so doing, which offer was accepted, and a dwelling, warehouse and shop were erected in the autumn of 1835, into which he removed from Derby Narrows in the spring of 1836. His dwelling-house was the sixth put up in Birmingham. When these buildings were completed he had drawn on the farmer Perry for $700 00, for which he offered security on the property, but this Mr. Perry declined, saying, he preferred security in a man rather than a house.
