Excerpt from Reminiscences of Plymouth, Luzerne County, Penna: A Pen Picture of the Old Landmarks of the Town; The Names of Old Residents; The Manners, Customs and Descriptive Scenes, and Incidents of Its Early History There are doubtless many others who are imbued with the same natural human desire; and in a measure to gratify such, it was suggested to me, that perhaps I, as one of the few remaining relics of a past age was properly qualified and therefore in duty bound, so far as possible, to rescue from oblivion and perpetuate the old memories, by placing on record enduring evidence of bygone scenes and incidents. In the contemplation of that task, in the efforts in tracing up obliterated, or fast disappearing landmarks, l have been somewhat sur prised to discover but comparatively few persons te maining here whose knowledge regarding the past was in that respect much, if any better or more reliable than my own.
