Excerpt from History of Fall River
The history of Fall River presented to the public in this volume is designed to fill a niche that (has long been vacant, inasmuch as no record of the city's growth has been published in nearly thirty years. The aim has been to present a concise and accurate statement of the city's history that will be of value as a work for -reference, as much as for general reading. Isotme matter already familiar to many readers has been incorporated, because of its importance, though in a condensed form, but a considerable proportion is new.
