Excerpt from Documents Relating to Towns in New Hampshire, New London to Wolfeborough, Vol. 13: With an Appendix This volume completes the publication of the documents relating to the towns in this state, which were collected by the editor in 1879 and 1880, placed in volumes in the oflice of the secretary of state, and labelled Town Papers, Collee tion of 1880, and Indian and French vvai's, and Revolution ary Papers, Collection of There are twelve of the former and four of the latter; and the figures in brackets at the beginning of each article in this volume refer to the number and page of the manuscript volume where the original docu ment may be found. The characteristics of this volume are similar to the two next preceding, and it will be necessary, in most cases, to examine the three, to find all the matter relating to any town. An abstract of the contents may be found at the commencement, which will give the reader an idea of the nature of each document; and at the end is a copious index, containing all the names of towns and persons mentioned, with reference to every place in which they occur. The compilation of said index required a large amount of labor, but without one full and complete, an historical work loses a large portion of its value - and the editor respectfully calls the attention of gentle men who are compiling town histories, to the importance of indexing the same fully and completely. The increasing interest manifested by the citizens of the state, generally, in matters relating to its early history, is strong evi dence of their intelligence and patriotism, and augurs well for the future. The amount of time and money expended in the publication of these volumes is small, compared with the benefits that will accrue to our citizens in various ways; and it is believed that the wisdom of our legislature in authorizing their publication.
