Pigeon Cove and Vicinity, 1873
The author makes acknowledgment of indebtedness to John J. Babson's "History of Gloucester" for passages of local history; to the "Encyclop dia Americana" for the extract from its sketch of Capt. John Smith; to "Young's Chronicles" for "Anthony Thatcher's Narrative," and a few quotations from relations of other writers; and to the "Atlantic Monthly" and several volumes of the poets from Osgood Co.'s publications for much valuable matter. He also renders thanks to Ebenezer Pool, of Rockport, for the help of interesting records, and for the aid of other neighbors, whose names are given in connection with their contributions. Moreover, he would add that he is confident that the artist, Thomas Lee Bulson, of Albany, N.Y., and the engraver, John Andrew, of Boston, will have the praise which is their due for fittingly adorning these beautifully printed pages.
