PUBLISHER'S PREFACE.

This volume contains portraits and biographical sketches of eighty-eightNew Hampshire men whose deserved success in their several callings hasmade them conspicuous in the professional, business, and politicalworld. It should be the first of a series,—the beginning of a work soextensive as to include similar presentations in regard to all theprominent men of our state, when it would exceed in value and interestto New Hampshire people all other publications of a biographical nature.The glory of our state centers in and is reflected from her great menand noble women, whose history should be familiar to all who by birth orassociation are interested in her fame and welfare, and especially tothose in whose hands rests her future, and who may need thestrengthening influence of their example. To this end this volume willcontribute. Its preparation has occupied a long time, and involved muchlabor and expense. My connection with it has been that of a publisher,whose duties I have endeavored to discharge faithfully and acceptably.All else is to be credited to others. The sketches are printed in theorder in which they were furnished.
