When this society was organic d in
Bennington about thirteen years ago, il
was stated that one OF its objects would
be to collect such matters of historic in
terest as might be desirable and place in
form for preservation. No action was
taken looking towards this object until
short time since. .s ~ ...
A. a NEE ing held two weeks ago
the hon. Geo. W. Hartman introduced
the resolution then printed in our
columns looking towards a written his
tory of Bennington. To be prepared
under the auspices of the society and by
direction Of competent committee.
This committee was appointed as fol-
lows at the adjourned meeting held last
Tuesday: Geo w. Hartman, Chas. NJ.
Bliss, Alfred Robinson, Col. DIN Scott
and DR.. II. Z. Day. We hope this com
mittee will act in this matter and thus
preserve to pOsterity much, as yet. I'M
written history. Especially do we know
that Messrs. Hartman and Day have
valuable collections of material which
would greatly enrich any history OF
Bennington.
As we understand it the committee
will probably compile from all sources
the authentic history of our historic
town. Largely thus will OF course be
the work of the Chairman and good
Yankee guess can now be INDUCED as to
the probable ability of the Coming work
from the two articles recently published
in these columns.
Mr.. Hartman has received several let
tiers from prominent gentlemen regard
ing these articles and the University of
Wisconsin has done him the honor to
preserve them as references IN the de
pdrLment Of history.
