Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief Record of Events in Exeter, N. H: During the Year 1862, Together With the Names of the Soldiers of This Town in the War Time rolls its ceaseless course and brings us through many changes - sad and joyous - to the opening of another year. In the eventful and blood-stained year gone by, some of us have experienced "partings such as press the blood from out young ♥" - some have followed "loved ones" to the house appointed for all the living ; - some have met the foe in the stern conflict on the battlefield ; some have nobly shed their blood in the defence of their native land. In such a year, the history of this single town alone would be the history of the nation ; would fill ponderous volumes with events, romantic, tragical and momentous. Such history cannot be written ; it lives however, in our memories, whose deep cells a "single word" may sometimes perchance unlock and bring the thrilling scenes again to view. From my Daily Record of our busy life, I have therefore selected some "vestigia rerum," which , together with the names of our patriotic soldiers, who ever share our warmest sympathies and the salutations of the New Year, I would respectfully present to the loyal and liberty-loving citizens of Exeter. The observations in meteorology were made for the Smithsonian Institution and according to its rules, at 7 A. M. and 2 and 9 P. M. The maximum and minimum only of the barometer and thermometer for each month aregiven. When the name of a regiment is omitted, New Hampshire is understood.
