A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The author, after most exhaustive researches, beginning with February 1, 1867, and extending at intervals over the period of twenty-six years since elapsed, has succeeded in collecting material for a History of his native County. This valuable and interesting matter is presented to the public, hoping it will be acceptable and satisfactory. Much care and discretion has been used to-render the following pages correct and full as circumstances permitted. While more important documents are copied verbatim, the unvarnished substance is usually given, because more generally in keeping with views of our people, since the Ancient Records contain many lengthy repetitions in the form of Preambles. This brief Preface would be incomplete, without acknowledging, most thankfully, the invaluable assistance so cheerfully bestowed by Departments of the Imperial and Provincial Govern ments; also, Rev. John A mbrose, D.C.L., D.D., ox-R ector of the Episcopal Church, Digby ;late William H. Taylor, Esq., formerly Vestry Clerk and High Sheriff; William B. Stewart, Esq, Prothonotary and Municipal it Clerk ;B otsford Viets, Esq., formerly Collector of Customs; late Hon. E. R. Cakes, M.L.C.; John S. Mc Neill, Esq., ex-M.P.P.; Placide P. Gaudet, Esq., A cadien Genealogist ;the late Holland E. Payson and Daniel Bailey ;also, Jesse Harris, Esquires, of Westport; Very Rev. James Daley, Vicar General, Louis Q. Bourque, and A nselra M.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
