Synopsis
Excerpt from The Town of Roxbury
IN the following pages the author's aim has been, while going over the old roads and pointing out their memorable localities, to present whatever of historical interest the annals of the town afford, and also to delineate the manners, customs, mode of life, and other characteristics of the men and women who lived and wrought here in former days, together with such visible memorials of them, their homes, their monuments, etc., as have escaped the ravages of time. In the performance of this task, every available source of information known to him has been drawn upon, and from aged persons, familiar with Roxbury as it was, much has been gleaned that would otherwise have been buried in oblivion.
