Book synopsis

Excerpt from Quabaug, 1660-1910: An Account of the Two Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration Held at West Brookfield, Mass; September 21, 1910 Since work was first undertaken looking toward the preparation of the following narrative, four members of the Joint Executive Committee in charge of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary celebration of the settlement of Brookfield have died. To the memory of these gentlemen - Hon. Theodore C. Bates, of North Brookfield, Hon. George K. Tufts, of New Braintree, Rev. Benson M. Frink, of West Brookfield, and Mr. Frank E. Prouty, of Brookfield - the Committee on Publication takes this opportunity to pay its sincere tribute of respect. Three of the deceased - Mr. Bates, Mr. Tufts, and Mr. Frink - were members of the original Committee on Publication. Mr. Frink, it is known, had collected much material for an historical account of the celebration and had even made a beginning toward the writing of it. But the fire that destroyed his home, not long after his death, consumed all this material. It is believed that both Mr. Bates and Mr. Tufts had likewise gathered together a considerable quantity of valuable data. No trace of their collections, if such existed, has, however, as yet been found. The years that have elapsed since the date of the celebration have made it extremely difficult, if not in some particulars impossible, to reassemble all the facts that it would have been desirable to preserve in permanent form for future reference.
