Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Papers Read Before the Herkimer County Historical Society, Vol. 3: Covering the Period From September 1902 to May 1914 The County of Herkimer is rich in legendary lore and possesses much of inestimable interest to the lover of Mohawk Valley history. This Society, during its eighteen years of active work in preserving the records of the various localities in this county may well be congratulated upon the valuable additions given to the public through the medium of the printed volumes of its proceedings. The officers herewith append a list of papers published in Volumes one and two. The present volume three contains the papers read before the Society, covering the period from September 1902 to January 1, 1914, also action of the Society taken upon the death of Albert N. Russell, the second president of the Society and Honorary President at the time of his demise, and also upon the death of John Dryden Henderson, Treasurer of the Society from its organization until his death in 1910. Also a brief review of the proceedings attendant upon the presentation of the colors of the 34th, Regiment to the Society at a public meeting held at the Court House in Herkimer, September 17, 1913. These volumes should be placed in every library in the Mohawk Valley, as a more complete local history of this section of the Empire State has never been published. In order to continue this valuable work, the officers desire to call special attention to membership in the Society, which consists of Life, Resident and Honorary. A life membership costs ten dollars, Resident members pay an admission fee of two dollars, which is in full of all fees and dues for the year ending the second Saturday of January following, and thereafter an annual fee of one dollar. A new member paying two dollars will receive a receipt in full for the year ending the second Saturday of January following and he will also receive, free of charge a copy of Volume three which is richly worth the admission fee. Volume One. Volume One of the society´s publications contains 324 pages, being the papers read before the society in the years 1896, 1897 and 1898 as follows: The Career of Michael Hoffman by Geo. W. Smith. Life, Character and Public Services of John Jay, by Frank B. Parkhurst. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
