Description
Excerpt from Moorestown, Old and New: A Local Sketch
But it is not alone with the old times that we are concerned. After all, the old times were but step ping stones on the way toward the new times; and if Moorestown had remained what it was a hundred or even fifty years ago, our interest in it would have been but vague and remote. It is the Moorestown of to-day that we care most for. Therefore the town as it now is, and the process of its evolution have been dealt with to some extent and note has been made of the introduction of new elements and ''the growth of new in?uences which, working in «connection with the old, have made Moorestown what it is - one of the most thriving as well as one of the most charming places of rural residence to be found within a long journey from Philadelphia.
