Synopsis
Excerpt from Our City and Its People: A Descriptive Work on the City of Rome, New York
All persons into wliose hands this volume will be delivered are familiar with the fact that during its compilation, its author, the late Daniel E. Wager, was stricken with death It is fortunate for those who will peruse these pages that his work thereon was nearly com pleted when his summons came. The arrangement of the matter and the preparation of some of the chapters was necessarily left for other hands; but the chief historical part of the work, and that which had demanded from Mr. Wager an astonishing amount of research, was finished. It is entirely safe to say, and it is due to his memory to re cord it here, that no other similar city has had so much intelligent labor bestowed upon the preparation of its early history; it may also be truly said that no other person could so well have performed the task for Rome.
