Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplement to the History of Taunton, Massachusetts It is gratifying to an author to receive words of approval, commendatory of his work, from persons of culture and learning, who have critically examined it, and whose judgment is not given unadvisedly. My long-time friend. Prof. Wm. S. Tyler, of Amherst College, writes: I have looked it through and read enough of it to see that an immense amount oi time and labor has been given to the book, and that the work is well done. Judge William E. Fuller, of Taunton writes: I have received your "History of Taunton" and spent several hours in a topical reading of it. It was a great labor for you t undertake at this time of your life and I most heartily congratulate you on its successful completion. The Hon. John S. Brayton. of Fall River, writes: I received last week a copy of your " History of Taunton." I have examined the book and am more than pleased with the manner in which you have performed the task of writing the history of that ancient municipality. The work shows great care and patient research, and is a grand monument to him, who. in the seventy-eighth year of his age. is able to publish a volume of inestimable value, not only to the present generation, but to those who may follow for generations to come. General Darius N. Couch, of Norwalk, Conn., writes: I want to tell you that, although we have had the "History" only a few days, we have gotten out of it a great deal of enjoyment. It is quite wonderful to me that in the comparatively brief time at your disposal you were able to bring out so complete a "History of Taunton." It is a noble momunent to your memory.

Amos Perry, in a letter to Captain Hall, says: My best compliments to Dr. Emery and my congratulations on the success of his admirable work.

Download or read book History of the Town of Weston written by Daniel S. Lamson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Town of Weston: Massachusetts, 1630-1890 It is scarcely a debatable question, in the opinion of the writer of these lines, as to whether this or any other town history is worth writing and publishing. The story of any town is worth telling, and the story of any man's life is worth narrating, either briefly or at length. So, when requested to edit this History of the Town of Weston by the late Colonel Daniel S. Lamson, I was glad to address myself to the task of getting the manuscript into shape and seeing it through the press. In these annals of a quiet neighborhood and these outlines of homely but strong and sturdy lives, the good colonel has limned for us, with praiseworthy toil and zeal, many a pleasant little sketch of scenes in the past life of Weston. His work is meritorious for its graphic anecdotes, its annals of the church and of the town meetings, and especially for its full account of Weston in the Revolution, and for its pronounced patriotic tone throughout. Such features of the work as the description of the grand wagon-freight routes from the North to the South along the coast and paralleling the Alleghany Range in the days before railroads; of the farmer-lads' wagon-freighting of wood to Boston from far New Hampshire and Vermont; or of the great trunk stage-road between Boston and New York which passed through Weston, the logical results thereof being visits to the town by Presidents Washington and Adams, events upon which the citizens prided themselves not a little, - these things, including minute accounts of the schools and of the business enterprises of the community, arc interesting reading and cheer one's way through the dryer details. I take it that the latter arc not intended for consecutive reading at all, but for consultation or peeping into on rainy days when the mood serves. In other words, a town history is, to a large extent at least, a reference book, however interesting it may be. And how, then, do our ancestors look to us? What is the verdict on them?

Of the Memorial a single copy only is known, namely, the copy in the library of the Massachusetts Historical Society. Of The Daniel Catcher but two copies have been found, although many libraries have been searched which would be supposed to have such a book on their shelves if it were in existence. One copy is in the library of the Rev. Thomas Prince, now deposited by its custodians, the trustees of the Old South Church, in the building of the Boston Public Library.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from From the Hub, to the Hudson: With Sketches of Nature, History and Industry in North-Western Massachusetts In the collection of materials for this little book I have been assisted by many friends; among whom are Messrs. Stevens of the Mansion House in Greenfield; and Rev. Robert Crawford, D. D., Nathaniel Hitchcock, Esq., and Dr. Charles Williams of Deerfield. Hitchcock's Geological Report, Holland's History of Western Massachusetts, Hoyt's Indian Wars, Barber's Historical Collections, and the various reports of Commissioners and Engineers upon the Hoosac Tunnel, have been of great service to me. The engravings of the Tunnel were executed from photographs by Messrs. Hurd & Ward of North Adams. The book is built on these two maxims: 1. History begins at home. 2. It is better to see one town from all its hilltops than five hundred towns from the car windows. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Account of Massachusetts Currency These examples show, that money or currency, is a convertible term, not absolutely confined to any one mate rial that, among distinct nations and in several periods, it may refer to substances as diverse, as those of the animal, vegetable and mineral kingdoms. Hence, we may not exclude from the list of currencies some of the articles adopted as such, by our fathers before the close of the 17th century, merely because they do not tally with those to which we have been accustomed. This introduction now brings us to enter on the course immediately in view. As we advance, it is proposed to remark on currency, not merely in its several species, but also in some of its rela tions.
