Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Centennial Celebration of Manchester: June 13, 1810-1910 At the annual meeting of the Manchester Historic Association held in their rooms, No. 64 Hanover Street, January 5, 1910, G. Waldo Browne, Chairman of the Publication Committee, referred to the fact that this was the centennial year of Manchester, it having received that name in exchange for its old title of Derryfield on June 13, 1810, by act of the legislature. It seemed eminently fitting, therefore, that either the city in its official capacity or the Association, should the municipal body not feel disposed to do so, observe with appropriate exercises that important anniversary. Mr. Browne then moved that a committee be chosen to confer with the city officials relative to the matter at an adjourned meeting. The motion prevailed, and ex-Mayor Edgar J. Knowlton, G. Waldo Browne, Fred W. Lamb, President Isaac Huse and Secretary Frank W. Sargeant were chosen as a committee. The committee thus elected presented the subject to the members of the city government, and though two thousand dollars had been appropriated for that purpose, that body did not think it advisable to undertake a celebration. Accordingly the Association voted unanimously to arrange for suitable exercises and a literary entertainment in the city hall on the evening of June 13. A special committee on the centennial celebration was then chosen, consisting of President Huse, William P. Farmer, Fred W. Lamb, Miss Mary Bell Willson and George Waldo Browne.
