Excerpt from Reminiscences of the Original Associates and Past Members of the Worcester Fire Society: Begun in an Address by Hon. Levi Lincoln, at the Quarterly Meeting, April, 1862, and Continued in an Address by Hon. Isaac Davis, at the Annual Meeting, January, 1870, With the Roll Members, From the Commencement to the Present Date
After the Address of Hon. Isaac Davis, on the evening of January 3d, 1870, the thanks of the Society were voted to him for his very interesting paper, and he was requested to consent to its publication. The undersigned were at the same time appointed a committee to carry into effect the purposes of the vote.
Having received Mr. Davis' Manuscript, it was ascertained that very few copies of Governor Lincoln's Reminiscences were left in the hands of the Clerk. As the Reminiscences by Mr, Davis are a continuation of the series begun by his predecessor, and each would be imperfect as a history without the opportunity of combining the other with it, the object of the Society in supplying its members with these memorials seemed to require that the whole should be printed together. The roll of members is part of the historical record, and is brought down to the present date.
