Excerpt from History of New Paltz, New York, and Its Old Families (From 1678 to 1820): Including the Huguenot Pioneers and Others Who Settled in New Paltz Previous to the Revolution
To every man the honorable fame Of his progenitors is an incentive to emulate their noble deeds.
In the early settlement Of New Paltz and its history for nearly a century afterwards there is such a touch Of to mance, such a blending Of the stern realities Of frontier life with the harmony of the poet's golden age, such noble examples Of devotion to the cause Of religious liberty, such brotherly kindness toward each other as exiles for a com mon cause, that the example should not be lost to posterity.
