Excerpt from The History of Middletown, Vermont: In Three Discourses, Delivered Before the Citizens of That Town, February 7 and 21, and March 30, 1867 Friends and fellow citizens - You have assembled this evening to hear from me the history of Middletown. I should rejoice if I could assure you that I had a full and complete his tory but I cannot so assure you. I have recently written it out, although I have for twelve years or more intended to do so, and in the meantime have been collecting the materials, as I had Opportunity. I now present it to you, not as a full and complete history, but as the best production I am able to give you. Much of the early history of the town is in oblivion. Fifty years ago, when many of those pioneer fathers and mothers were living, the most of it might have been gathered up and saved; but such as I have been able to collect in my time is hereby most respectfully and affectionately dedicated to and for the use of my native town. I wish here to say, that for the literary merits of my produc tion I claim nothing. My desire, and, I may say, only purposes have been to collect all the material facts I possibly could which go to make up your history, and to express them intelligibly and truthfully, conscious that if those facts can be preserved, they may be put in better form by some one more capable than myself, who shall come after me.
