Excerpt from History of Fall River, Massachusetts The observance of the one hundredth anniversary of the beginning of cotton manufacturing in Fall River has seemed to the Merchants Association a fitting occasion for the publication of a concise history of the community. Its historical committee has therefore prepared the pages which follow, in the hope of making the history of the city better known by its citizens and the thousands of visitors within its gates, as well as by many others to whom copies may be sent by friends. The book has been prepared and published in less than two months, and has of necessity been made brief. A strong effort has, however, been made to secure accuracy, and to include all the principal facts in connection with the city's development. The original spelling of names has been retained in many cases, and incidents of interest have in some instances been interwoven. The committee hopes that its work may be the basis of a more extensive history of Fall River. The story of its growth is an inspiration to greater things, and deserves to be more generally known.
