Excerpt from The Churches of Mattatuck: A Record of a Bi-Centennial Celebration at Waterbury, Connecticut, November 4th and 5th, 1891 In preparing the various addresses and papers for the press I have added bibliographical and other notes which may be of service to those desir ing to pursue still further the history of a church, a district or a period. I have also prefixed some historical memoranda, by the help of which the proper place of Waterbury in the early develop ment of Connecticut may be definitely recognized, and have given a careful account of the bi-centen nial celebration itself, reproducing therein the pro gram of the entire series of services. Other mat ters connected more or less closely with the occasion are given as addenda. The additions thus made including a full index - constitute about one-fifth of the volume, and represent the earnest desire of the editor to give to it such completeness as was possible within prescribed limits. In this way may also be explained - in part at least - the long delay in the publication of the book. In the public celebration, but little reference was made to those who have served as pastors of the First church since the death of Mark Leaven worth, and accordingly this record of that celebra tion contains only their names and the dates of their pastorates. Some of these men were undoubt edly as able and devoted, and as well worthy of commemoration, as those whose lives are here recorded. But the exigencies of the occasion were such that, although materials were not wanting, detailed accounts could not be presented. To com plete the history of the mother church, even on the basis which the present compilation indicates.
