Ptcface. Napolron has soiiiowhoro sahl Miat a history of an army coiihl not bo written till the history of its regfimonts had been v Titten. This holds equally gool with the history of a Union iike ours. If you would tell its story truthfully you must go back to its first elements. It Is by seeing what each town and village had done, that we arrive at a satisfactory narrative of what each state has done. Thus the office of town historian is a very important of Hce. It gathers up with minute twcuracy the incidents of town and village life, and prepares them for the hand of the historian, and what is even more important, it tells yon the story of their great men; their guiltless Cromwells and their mute inglorious Miltons. It is only by the means of preliminary 1al Krs like these, that a general histrtry of the United States becomes possible. The volume which we here offer to the public, is one of these elementary volumes which requires industry, zeal, and candid criticism ;to all of which I venture to lay claim. I have grown enthusiastic over anecdotes and details which have no place in general history, but without which local coloring is lost and truth disguised. Such as it is Tol Ter this volume. (the result of many lalwrious days), to the kind acceptance of my fellow townsmen.
