E. Victor Bigelow Narrative History of the Town of Cohasset, Massachusetts

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The hand of an alien might well hesitate to record the private affairs of a conservative New England town, but it is hoped that a spirit of fairness and his admiration for the town may be relied upon to make up his deficiency in blood connection. Coming to this picturesque village from the outside world, it has been the writer's fortune to be received into the inside confidence of many hearts. It has been a labor of love to learn from those who have had the experience of living some of the deep facts of life, and to narrate some of the circumstances of former lives in this community.
