Excerpt from The History of Westborough, Massachusetts, Vol. 1

The warrant for the town meeting of March 7, 1887, had an article, "To see if the town will print in book form the history of the town as gathered by Rev. H. P. DeForest and others, or act anything in relation to the same."

At an adjourned meeting, held March 21, the town voted, "That the moderator appoint a committee of three to take the matter into consideration, and report, with an estimate of the expense, at a future meeting."

George B. Brigham, George Forbes, and Joshua E. Beeman were appointed as the committee. At a meeting held April 27 of the same year the committee reported that Rev. H. P. DeForest could furnish the earlier history, and some one here in town the later, but that they could give nothing definite in regard to the expense, as Mr. DeForest would leave the matter to the town to pay what they thought best.
