LYNN
HER COMPLETE HISTORY.
In answer to inquiries concerning the History of Lynn, and the other works of Hon. JAMES R. NEWHALL, the undersigned announce that
The volume by ALONZO LEWIS and JAMES R. NEWHALL, con- taining a full HISTORY OF LYNN, from the first settlement, in 1629, to the close of 1864, 8vo., 620 pages, price $2.25; and the volume entitled "LIN, OR NOTABLE PEOPLE AND NOTABLE THINGS IN THE EARLY HISTORY OF LYNN, THE THIRD PLANTATION OF MASSACHUSETTS COLONY,"- the same that in earlier editions bore the title of "LIN, OR JEWELS OF THE THIRD PLANTATION," 8vo., 500 pages, price $1.50; are now in print, and can be promptly received by application at the places named.
The volume bringing the History down from 1864 to 1890 has been out of print, but a new edition is now issued, and this will bring the History to 1893. 350 to 400 pages, 8vo., price $1.75.
The above give the continuous History of Lynn in its various departments, and give the means to all interested to become acquaint- ed with its History, from 1629 to 1893.
These, with two new books, afford an excellent opportunity to secure as a whole the complete works of Hon. JAMES R. NEWHALL, the Historian of Lynn. These books are unique in their character, being compiled from the personal observations of the author, and contain a connected History of our City, including its traditions and legends.
They are noteworthy as a reflex of the times from the standpoint of a long life, are useful as ready reference and for genealogical and other tables of information, while the quaintness of the author's style, combined with the spice of personal experience, make them an interesting contribution to literature, and a valuable addition to a library.
