Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of New England, Vol. 2: Containing Historical and Descriptive Sketches of the Counties, Cities and Principal Towns of the Six New England States; Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont
Her ships, built by her own citizens, and with material from her own forests, have sailed every sea, and borne her productions to every clime, while her enterprising sons and daughters have swelled the population and aided in moulding the character and shaping the destiny of the Great West.
Her first settlers, while yet in the discomforts of their log huts, watching with sleepless vigilance the lurking savage, made education and religion the first objects of interest, and reared the school-house and the sanctuary. Upon these great principles, - universal education and freedom of conscience, - they based the grand super structure they have reared at such cost. Material was being prepared for a great edifice, and it must be out, not from clay but solid granite.
