Book Description

Excerpt from The History of Lynn, Including Nahant I have given the names of more than three hundred of the early settlers, with short sketches of the lives of many. I have also collected the names of many Indians and their Saga mores, the fragments of whose history have become so inter esting. This is the first attempt, in any town, to collect the names of all the early settlers, with those of the Indians who were cotemporary with them. I trust that no person who is an inhabitant of Lynn, or interested in the details of antiquity, will think that I have been too particular. A proper attention to dates and minuteness of circumstance, constitutes the charm of history, and the actions and manners of men can never cease to be interesting.
