Excerpt from History of the Town of Rochester, New Hampshire, Vol. 1 of 2: From 1722 to 1890
The reader will observe that the standpoint of time varies with the time of writing, or of going to press.
The date of publication suggests the transition from the town to the city of Rochester, and that whoever shall resume the historic pen must begin with the inauguration of a city government with the Hon. Charles S. Whitehouse as first mayor.
The kind assistance of many besides those named in the body of the work is hereby thankfully acknowledged. Special mention should be made of Irving A. Watson, M. D., the Hon. A. S. Batchellor, the Rev. N. F. Carter, J. R. Ham, M. D and my lamented friend, the late Hon. Isaac W. Hammond.
Like a broken column restored by some less skillful hand, it is hoped this History will remain as a fitting monument to the fragrant memory of its author and designer, franklin mcduffee.
