Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Memoriam: Citizen Soldiers of Dracut, Who, Served in the War of the American Revolution; 1775-1783 In the seventh day of December, 1904, the following notice was sent to the members of Old Middlesex Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution: Dear Sir and Compatriot: - There will be a special meeting of Old Middlesex Chapter, S. A. R, at the "Old Yellow Meeting House," so-called, in Dracut Centre, on Saturday, December 17, at two o´clock p. m., for the purpose of presenting to the town of Dracut a memorial emblem in commemoration of the patriotism and the valor of the cltizen-soldiers of the town of Dracut, during the period of the great historic struggle for American independence. Permission is given to Chapter members to invite friends. It is much to be desired that there may be as large an attendance of compatriots as is possible, to the end that this may prove to be an occasion of historic Interest. The bronze tablet, which is a gift of the Old Middlesex chapter, Sons of the American Revolution, is imbedded in the surface of a large boulder provided by the town, and placed on the green in front of the historic "Old Yellow Meeting House," or Dracut Centre church as it is now called. The tablet bears the following inscription: In Memory of the Men of Dracut Who Served in the Revolutionary War, 1775-1783. 423 Out of a Population of 1173. Placed by Old Middlesex Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution. 1901. The exercises of dedication were held in the Centre church on Saturday afternoon, beginning at 2 o´clock. Special invitations had been sent to members of each of the three local chapters. Daughters of the American Revolution, and while the response was not general, there was good representation, especially from Molly Varnum and Lydia Darrah chapters. The town of Dracut was also well represented, and at the close of the exercises the hospitable ladles extended an invitation through the presiding officer to all present, to partake of an excellent collation, served in the social assembly room under the auditorium.
