The History of Dublin, N. H: Containing the Address by Charles Mason, and the Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration, June 17, 1852, With a Register of Families (Classic Reprint)
Description:Excerpt from The History of Dublin, N. H: Containing the Address by Charles Mason, and the Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration, June 17, 1852, With a Register of FamiliesIT has become quite common at the present day, especially in New England, to publish histories of towns. The practice is a good one. The traditions of past events are always fading from the memories of successive generations; and, unless they are written and printed, many of them will be lost beyond re covery. It happens already that the existing inhabitants of towns, the histories of which have not been published, are but slightly acquainted with the events that moved the hearts, and aroused the energies, of their progenitors. This has been made very evident in our case by many unsuccessful attempts to obtain information in reference to the early history of Dublin. Passing events have so absorbed interest and atten tion, that the transactions of former times transactions, too, which have made or marred their own fortunes have received little or no consideration. The aged, it is true, are apt to dwell upon the past; while the young look intently to the future, speculating more upon what will be than upon what has been. But the history of the past, even in a small town, contains lessons from which those who now live, even the young, may learn wisdom for the future. Many instructors of youth have urged the importance of beginning the study of geography with that of their own town. If they are right, then the same may be urged, to some extent, with regard to history, which, if thus begun, cannot fail to have in the minds of the young a more living reality.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
