Excerpt from A Souvenir of the Conant Memorial Church: Its Inception, Construction, and Dedication; With Illustrations

When this book was commenced I had no thought beyond making a small souvenir of the dedication of the Conant Memorial Church; but as I worked at the compilation, the history of the church in Dudley seemed as interesting to me as the record of my ancestors; and as building the church and trying to provide for the preach ing of the Gospel was practically a part of the town's business in the time of those early settlers, it is not easy to say much about them and have their work not well understood. I judged also that the historical sermon of Rev. Mr. Francis would be acceptable, even if seasoned slightly with the religious dogmas of that day, inasmuch as it gives a great deal of the early history of the locality in a very clear and concise manner. In the history of the first church, I have made copies from the old records of the town as the best form in which to preserve it.
