Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Historical Record of Nameaug Engine Co: Together With an Original Poem, Read at the Re-Union, February 22nd, 1871, Also, a List of Its Members From Its Organization to the Present Time
The Company having procured their new Engine, manufac tured by Jeffers of Rhode Island, and taken possession of their new house, again offered their services to the city authorities, which services were accepted, and well they might be, for no such powerful machine or efficient company existed in the State at that time. On the rst of May, 1850, the mournful du ty devolved on the Company of depositing in the tomb the remains of one of their number, Frederic A. Bassett. This was the first inroad that death had made in the ranks of the Company; it was indeed a solemn occasion, for the deceased had been one of their most genial companions.
