Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Sketches of Historic Bennington Vermont was known as the "Wilderness," until after the subjugation of Canada by the English in 1749. But when peace had been restored, Benning Wentworth, Governor of New Hampshire, was commanded by his Majesty, King George Second, to make grants of unimproved lands within his government, and Bennington, named in his honor, was the first township granted in what is now known as the State of Vermont. Soldiers serving in the colonial armies were often obliged to march through the "Wilderness," and many of them, attracted by the beauty of the scenery and the fertility of the soil, planned to return some time, and on its beautiful hillsides, or along its peaceful valleys, establish settlements. One of these colonial soldiers. Captain Samuel Robinson, returning from Lake George, and mistaking the Walloomsac River for the Hoosac, came to Bennington, and encamped here with a few of his comrades.
