Note from Rachel Pace (granddaughter of George D. Taylor): I found the copy of book that grandpa gave to his mother with an inscription "Mother; This is your special copy. I wish I could overlay it with Silver Engraving, for your enthusiasm and appreciation of what is inside is my greatest reward for having written it. George. Apr 24, 1950."

As manager of this dcnyhistory.org website, I would like to express my appreciation to Donald A. Danald for bringing this book to our attention, and for reproducing all pages in image format. Thanks go out to Linda Ogborn for taking on transcription from those images and for all the work she has done in the past for dcnyhistory.org. Last, but not least, much appreciation to the Taylor Family for sharing this book and other materials for everyone's enjoyment.
