Excerpt from A History of Old Braintree and Quincy: With a Sketch of Randolph and Holbrook
The compiler of this history of old Braintree and Quincy has endeavored to give a correct and faithful account of it. N 0 one is more sensible than he of its deficiencies and shortcomings, which the reader must attribute to the want of skill in book making. He, as Strype relates-in his annals, has chosen to set down things in the very words of the records and originals, and of the authors themselves, rather than in my own, without fram ing and dressing them in more modern language, whereby the sense is sure to remain entire as the writers meant it; whereas, by affecting too curiously to change and model words and sen tences, I have observed the sense itself to be often marred and disguised.
