Description
Excerpt from History of the Town of Concord, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, From Its Earliest Settlement to 1832: And of the Adjoining Towns, Bedford, Acton, Lincoln, and Carlisle
The author of the following History, having had occasion several years since to consult some of the earlier town records in Concord, discovered many important facts and documents which were wholly unknown to the public, and''very imperfectly to the inhabitants of the town itself; and it occurred to him that a series of communi cations in a periodical work, embracing them, would be interesting and valuable, and he immediately began to collect materials for this purpose. But, in the progress of his investigation, the quantity of interesting matter increased so much, that it was thought best it should be published in some other form than that originally intend ed.'' The result of his inquiries appears in the following volume. It has been compiled at such intervals of time as could be con veniently abstracted from the almost constant engagements of busmess.
