Excerpt from The Story of a Picture

I desire to express my pleasure and thanks at being asked to read a paper before Donegal Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution. My heartiest wishes are with you in all the worthy purposes of your noble and patriotic organization. I, too, am a member of a kindred society. If I were not a "Son" I would wish to be a "Daughter." I bring no rhetorical bouquets to cast into your laps. My subject does net allow of them. It deals with cold facts and figures pertaining to the early history of Lancaster town - the town founded by your ancestors and later defended by the valor of your fathers. It will, no doubt, in some of its features, be more than a "twice told tale" to many of you, but I have sought to introduce some things that may not be so familiar respecting this old shiretown which bore so conspicuous a part in the struggle for American independence.
