Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Niles Roberts were active workers in behalf of the Italian War Relief Fund and were instrumental in raising substantial sums of money for that purpose. Pro- ceeds from the sale of his book "Nedda," were contributed to this cause and yielded several thousands of dollars.
Admiral William S. Sims, Commander of the U. S. Naval Forces in Europe, was a frequent visitor here in past years when Mrs. Sims, daughter of former Secretary of the Interior, Ethan Allen Hitchcock, lived in her father's home "West- mere," on the west shore of the lake.
Dr. Frank E. Spaulding, born and brought up in the west part of the town on "Spaulding hill," Superintendent of Schools in Cleveland, Ohio, headed the American Commission to France to organize Education for the American Army dur- ing the war, and especially during the period of demobilization.
Throughout the world the word "camouflage" has become familiar during the war. Although this word is of French origin, the thing itself is primarily an American creation, the work neither of warriors nor army experts, but of a distin- guished artist, a well-known Dublin resident, Abbott H.

Thayer, who has permanently lived here for more than twenty-five years.
In 1896, an essay by Mr. Thayer on "The Law Which Underlies Protective Coloration," was published in The Auk, and shortly afterwards reprinted in the Year Book of the Smithsonian Institution. In 1909, the Macmillans published "Concealing-coloration in the Animal Kingdom," written by Abbott H. Thayer's son, Gerald H. Thayer, and illustrated by father and son.
Protective coloration, as set forth in this book, was one of the main starting points of camouflage, and to a considerable extent has guided its development. Assurance of these facts were given Mr. Thayer in England and Scotland in the winter of 1915-16, when he went abroad to tender the Allies more direct help in this matter.
Professor Herdman, of the University of Liverpool, sug- gested that the naturalists of Great Britain ought to sign a joint statement to the effect that they believed Mr. Thayer's unique knowledge of protective coloration could be made of the greatest use to the War Department. It proved, however, that, owing to the efforts of several other British scientists, notably Professor J. Graham Kerr of Cambridge and the Uni- versity of Glasgow, who had even urged that the government create a special bureau for the adoption of Thayer's discov- eries, "concealing coloration" was already doing war service of various kinds, both on land and sea.
Camouflage has carried the principles of visual deception to hitherto undreamed-of lengths of application, and to mani- fold and divergent new developments.
But the latest military camouflage was mainly a matter of masking batteries and guns for airplane detection. Stand- ardized materials, wire netting, colored shreds of burlap, etc., manufactured in vast quantities behind the lines were the main dependence for this roofing-over and screening of guns. The latest marine camouflage, again, sought not concealment of ships, but effects of distortion of outline and perspective which would puzzle the U-boat observers looking through the periscope, as to the vessel's speed, distance, exact form, and especially her course, or direction of movement.
Professor E. B. Poulton, F. R. S., etc., President of the Linnean Society of London, the distinguished English evolu- tionist, writes as follows:
"During the sixty years which have elapsed since that his-
686
HISTORY OF DUBLIN
toric day [of the reading before the Linnean Society of Dar- win's and Wallace's joint essay on Natural Selection], English- speaking workers - among the foremost the American Artist- Naturalist, Abbott H. Thayer, and his son Gerald H. Thayer - have studied this principle [protective coloration], con- tinually extending it by the discovery of fresh applications, and analysing it into a whole group of cooperating principles; but in spite of all these naturalists have done, it required the Great War and a misused French word in order to arrest the attention of their fellow-countrymen. .. .
"We may, however, forgive the inaccurate use of a new word which the war has brought into our language because of the attention which has now been focussed upon a most in- teresting subject - attention which rightly demands a new and widely accessible edition of this work [Thayers' 'Con- cealing Coloration']. Here are clearly explained and illus- trated the principles underlying the art of 'Camouflage,' practised by Nature from time immemorial but in some of its main lines only made known to Man by the discoveries of Abbott H. Thayer."

INTRODUCTION
OWING to the large number of families whose registers have been collected, we have been obliged to make use of many abbreviations, and to abridge some portion of the matter that we should have been glad to insert in full. Many facts and dates have been added to the registers contained in the former history. Many of these have been supplied by the history committee, many by citizens who have kindly aided in the work, others by our own personal researches in the records of various towns, in the library of the New England Historic Genealogical Society of Boston (a collection remark- ably complete), in the State Library at Concord, and in the Vital Records Department in the State House at Concord. In addition, blanks were sent by the committee to numerous families, which were filled and returned by them. These sources of information are not infallible and the editor is not responsible for the errors which they contain. The most that he can promise is to reproduce faithfully the information which he has derived from sources supposed to be accurate. After a long experience in such work, he has learned to be cautious about the information imparted even by family records " and personal correspondence. He has sometimes detected de- ception and misrepresentations. It is his intention to print nothing that will injure any person and he believes that the following family registers are as nearly accurate as can ever be the case in works of this kind.
The editor has discovered that, in the former history of the town, dates of deaths, apparently taken from the church records, are really the dates of funerals. He has endeavored to correct such dates wherever it could be done. The collec- tion of the cemetery inscriptions has aided greatly in doing this.
It has been found impossible to trace the genealogies in de- tail much beyond the limits of Dublin. Descendants of Dublin persons who were born and have lived in other places cannot

generally be included in this work unless they lived so near Dublin, or kept up such a close intimacy with the town, that it was thought to be advisable to include them. As a rule, a person who has left Dublin and established family connections in another place is not further considered in these registers.
