Excerpt from History of the Town of Montpelier From the Time It Was First Chartered in 1781 to the Year 1860Thus it will be seen, the sources and means of our information have been good, and we have spared no time or pains in availing ourself of them to the best advantage.But we cannot say as much for the manner in which we have elaborated and brought out the materials of the work. There was scarcely a day during the time we were engaged in the composition of the work. In which we were not compelled to drop our pen and go abroad to ascertain from old living witness es, family records or books, or pamphlets out of print, some fact. Circumstance or date, which we found it necessary or desirous to introduce. This not only greatly limited the time we had to bestow on the composition of the book but had the tendency to disturb the keeping, ease and harmony of the style, and in many instances to cause it to be left imperfect. For these reasons, we must ask the indulgence of the reader in making all the allow ance for the literarv execution of the work, to which the cir~ eumstances may entitle him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
