Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Address and Poem: Delivered at the Bi-Centennial Celebration of the Incorporation of the Old Town of Reading, May 29, A. D. 1844 My duty upon the present occasion is prescribed in the terms of the joint vote of the citizens of Reading and South Heading, in town-meeting, last January, that "the bi-centennial anniversary of the incorporation of the town of Reading should be celebrated, by the delivery of an historical address and other exercises appropriate to the occasion." Having, without duly considering my incompetency for the task, acceded to the invitation of your Committee, to prepare, with their aid, such an address, you will now indulge me with your patient attention to an attempted history of the town of our nativity - to such imperfect, fragmentary memorials, as have been preserved, of the deeds, character, and fortunes of its inhabitants, and of some of the changes and events of interest that have transpired within its precincts, during the lapse of two centuries; compendious it must be, but as comprehensive and ample as the diligence of your Committee has enabled me to make it, and as the time allowed for its recital will permit.
