TESTIMONIALS.


The following letters, relating to this work, have been voluntarily tendered to the author.


Hawthorn Cottage, Roxbury, May 2, 1851.


DEAR SIR: I return you my sincere thanks for the volume you so kindly presented to me, containing " Inscriptions on the Gravestones in Northampton and other Towns in the Valley of the Connecticut River."


I am gratified to learn that you intend to publish, in three volumes, the epitaphs on Copp's Hill and other ceme- teries in Boston. By such commendable efforts to perpetu- ate the names and characters of those adventurers and honored pioneers to whom we are indebted for civil and religious free- dom, and all the blessings we enjoy under our admirable institutions of government, you will be distinguished as the literary Old Mortality of New England.


That you will be amply rewarded for the services you are so zealously endeavoring to render your countrymen, I cannot doubt, by the patronage they will extend to you.


With assurances of respect,


Your much obliged and most obedient servant,


HI. A. S. DEARBORN.


THOMAS BRIDGMAN, EsQ.

Testimonials.


Boston, 23d June, 1852.


MR. THOMAS BRIDGMAN.


DEAR SIR : I am happy to tender you the thanks of the New England Hist. Genealogical Society for a copy of " Epi- taphs from Copp's Hill Burial Ground," for its library. It is one of those valuable - I might rather say invaluable - contributions to the materials for a history of the city of Boston, which every one regarding the past will, like myself, be highly gratified to see. It is to be hoped you will find encouragement to continue in the same field of labor.


Very respectfully, yours, SAMUEL G. DRAKE, Cor. Sec. N. E. H. G. S.


Charlestown, Mass., Feb. 10, 1852.


At a meeting of King Solomon's Lodge, holdon this evening, Br. Thomas Bridgman presented to the Lodge a copy of a work recently compiled by him, entitled " Epitaphs from Copp's Hill Burial Ground," containing, among other very interest- ing features, a beautiful engraving of the monument erected to our first Grand Master, Major-general JOSEPH WARREN, Where- upon it was


" Voted, That the thanks of the Lodge be tendered to Br. bridgman, and that the book remain upon the secretary's desk for examination by the brethren."


CALEB RAND, Sec'y.


To BR. THOMAS BRIDGMAN.


Boston, May 31, 1852. MR. THOMAS BRIDGMAN.

Very respectfully yours,

Testimonials.


Boston, May 26, 1852.


DEAR SIR: You are placing coming generations under obligations, to say nothing of the gratification the present will derive from your researches among the tombs.


Inscriptions in the burial-yards of Boston are becoming very indistinct. By accurately transcribing them, and giving a volume to the public and to posterity, you are really doing a great work, the full value of which will be appreciated in after times. Those quaint memorials on the old stones illus- trate the tone of moral sentiment, religious character, and carly history, of those who organized the institutions of the city and commonwealth, which are still the pride and glory of the people.


Allow me to express a hope that your efforts may be crowned by the approbation and patronage of the public.


Very respectfully, your obedient servant,


J. V. C. SMITH.


Tnos. BRIDGMAN, EsQ.


Charlestown, July 2, 1852.


DEAR SIR : I have examined such portions of your new work, on the Inscriptions in King's Chapel Burying-ground, as you have sent to me in sheets, and shall look with much inter- est for its publication. The charm of such a work will be found in its strict fulelity to the antiquarian's serious duty, which requires that he present faets of the past with rigid accuraey, and depend for the romanee which he wishes them to have upon the moss and the grayishness which centuries of advancing time are always sure to make for a texture and a hue to every thing and every object that has the slightest in- terest of its own. I think you have not failed to come very near to the high standard of your undertaking. ·


Very respectfully yours, GEORGE E. ELLIS.


MR. THOMAS BRIDGMAN.
