Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Centennial Memorial of the First Baptist Church: Of Hartford, Connecticut, March 23d and 24th, 1890 This memorial volume was prepared under the direction of the Centennial Committee of the church. It is intended partly to be a souvenir of the very pleasant centennial celebration, and partly to present in permanent form, for the friends of the church, some of the more important and more interesting elements of the first hundred years of its history. The addresses of Messrs. Howard, Stone, Bronson, Wheeler, Dimock and Barbour, delivered at the celebration without notes, were stenographically reported, and are given here substantially as they were spoken, with slight revision at the hands of the several speakers. The other addresses are reproduced from the manuscripts of the authors. The historical sermon of Dr. Sage was prepared without opportunity for any verification of facts by reference to records. The doctor's memory, however, seems to have served him accurately and well. It need scarcely be added that each speaker is himself responsible for his own words, and shares that responsibility neither with the committee or the church. The Historical Sketch, down to the close of Mr. Eaton's pastorate, is largely an abridgment of Dr. Turnbull's Memorial Discourse, delivered in the spring of 1856. Important additions, however, have been made from other sources. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
PREFACE T0 WRITE the history of recent events is at no time an easy task. But when this history concerns the devclopment of a growing, dynamic body like the people of Illinois, the attempt to portray their manifold activities and constant re-adjustments becomes doubly dificult. This volume seeks to trace the main lines of economic, political, and social development during the past quarter century, and to indicate the measure of progress which the people of this state have achieved in these departments of human endeavor. After all is said it is a record of which any state might well be proud. Progress has been particularly marked in all lines of economic activity. The growth of population and of wealth, the steadily augmenting output of farm and factory and mine, the expansion of railway and other transportation facilities, and the improvements in agriculture, manufactures, banking, and commerce, all bear witness to the energy and successful achievements of the people. But the story is by no means confined to material improvement. With the growth in wealth has come an increasing application of that wealth and the interests of the people to the advancement of culture, of art, and of learning. And with the growth in leisure has come better understanding of political problems and a determination to solve them. During the last quarter of a century political development in the direction of better and more efficient government has been slow but steady. This growth has been especially noticeable in connection with the introduction of the merit system of appointment to the civil service and the reorganization of the principal administrative services on a more integrated and systematic basis. Theincreasing power of the governor over both IegisIation and administration is also noteworthy. Political progress in a democracy rests at bottom upon the education and practical experience of the mass of the voters in governmental affairs. The increasing interest and participation of the people in political activities is, therefore, a healthy sign and indicatcs that the politics salvation of the state is, in spite of ups and downs, being worked out. The author of the chapters on economic development wishes to make acknowIedgment for valuable assistance rendered him in the preparation of this volume. Preliminary studies were made on different topics by the following persons working as research assistants for the Illinois Historical Survey or for thc Centennial Commission agriculture, George H...
