Excerpt from Tewksbury: A Short History

This sketch was delivered last winter as a lecture under the title "Our Town," in the course of the Village Improvement Association of Tewksbury. It was written with no thought of publication. The request for it for that purpose brought home to the writer its incompleteness. He has consented to its appearance to gratify many who were unable to hear it; in hope, also, that it may incite some one to give Tewksbury a more perfect history.

In the study of history to-day, no feature is more marked than the attention paid to the process of the making of England and the United States as revealed in the early life of the towns. Those of New England have an origin and life peculiarly their own. The smallest of them is a true representative of the class.
