Endorsements.


I hereby certify that I have examined a transcript of the first two volumes of the Derby Town Records made by Mrs. A. W. Phillips of the Sarah Riggs Humphreys Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, and so far as I have compared the same find it to be a very faithful copy of the original, and evidently made with care.

To the Town of Derby, Connecticut, belongs the unique distinc- tion of being able to place a seal, if it so ordains, upon what remains to it of its Books of Record from 1655 to 1710-a distinc- tion conferred upon it through the patriotic work of its local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.


In January, 1898, the Sarah Riggs Humphreys Chapter of the above organization resolved to copy the early records of the town- ship, which, by reason of age and usage, were rapidly perishing. To that end the chapter appointed Mrs. A. W. Phillips to take charge of the work, which is now completed and will remain an enduring evidence of the intelligent work performed and the faithful rendering of the copyist.


Having examined and carefully compared a considerable por- tion of the copy with the historic records, I have no hesitation in saying that it is the most accurate piece of work, of like intent, that has passed under my observation, and that I believe it to be a perfect copy. In twenty consecutive pages examined and com- pared, every word, letter and mark of punctuation had been accu- rately rendered.


The one aim has been to preserve the letter of the records with- out emendation or translation, and the result is such as should satisfy the most exacting antiquarian.

DERBY, CONN., June 20, 1901.


I hereby certify that at a meeting of the Sarah Riggs Humph- reys Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, held in Derby, Flag Day, 1901, the following resolutions were submitted by the Regent, Mrs. James R. Mason, and were unanimously adopted and signed by the members of the chapter, viz :


WHEREAS, The Sarah Riggs Humphreys Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, receives with much pleasure the announcement that the copying of the Derby town records and the comparing and correcting of the proof sheets have been com- pleted and,


WHEREAS, The Chapter deeply appreciates the great value of the work and also the magnitude of the task of copying records that have been rendered almost illegible by time, the correcting of the printer's proof sheets and other incidental labor ; there- fore be it


Resolved, That we, the undersigned members of the Chapter, at this Flag Day meeting, June 14, 1901, do hereby give loving tribute to our Honorary Regent and Librarian, Mrs. Nancy O. Phillips, for her inspiring loyalty, her gracious generosity and her unselfish devotion to the interests of our Chapter, and the promotion of its patriotic work, in undertaking and completing the prodigious labor of copying and otherwise preparing for pub- lication the aforesaid Derby Records. And furthermore, be it


Resolved, That we, the members of the Sarah Riggs Humphreys Chapter, beg our Honorary Regent to permit the use of her name on the title page of said records with proper acknowledgment of the Chapter's indebtedness to her.


Attest,


FRANCES L. BRINSMADE, Secretary.


Note of Explanation.


This copy of the early records of Derby, made by the Sarah Riggs Humphreys Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, includes


"Book A I, Derby and Pagassett Records."


"Book 2, First Part."


"Book 2, Second Part," and


"Record belonging to the Third Book."


Book I is a pamphlet containing forty-one pages.


Book 2 was used from both covers-the "First Part " being the Acts of the Town, which filled 161 pages. For the "Second Part" the book was reversed and paged from that end (being 129 pages), and at first was devoted to items "extracted out of the Court Records" (the General Court or Legislature at Hartford), then followed by various town matters, marriages, births, deaths, deeds, ear marks for cattle, etc.


Record belonging to the Third Book is a pamphlet of 31 pages, pages not numbered.


The copy follows the original closely in every respect, even to spelling, capitalization and punctuation (with one exception, the long s has not been used).


The original paging of the Records is given at the left side of these pages. The copy is paged in the order given above.


Brackets are used where words are missing.


The funds required for printing this book have been furnished in part by private subscription, and in part by a generous appro- priation by the city of Derby, without which publication would have been impossible.
