We wish to thank those who have contributed information in any form. Without your help we could have done nothing, so you have had a decided part in this history, which we hope you will enjoy. Peruse it to the fullest if you wish to reward us, as that will be fullest compensation in our minds.
Those, who we thank are listed below with their addresses. Note the name of Grace e. Merrill of Vergennes, Vt., it was quite a thrill and surprise to receive a letter addressed to Mrs. Grace E. Merrill Switzer from Grace E. Merrill, as we did not know anyone with that name existed.
Our most humble thanks go to those named below. We sincerely hope we have not omitted any worthy contributors:
