Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Major Gen. Burbank: An Early Paper Maker
Much sympathy was expressed for him at his removal from office, and later measures were put on foot by his friends to have him reinstated. Many who at first were found to be against him, acknowledged the punishment he received to be too severe, and thought his mistakes, if any, did not warrant such harsh measures. For some reason or other, the attempt at reinstate ment was abandoned, and to the last, General Burbank felt great injustice had been done him. Notwithstanding all this, the Gen eral in 1819 was honored by his fellow citizens of Millbury with a seat in the Great and General Court, and the same year headed the list of jurors.
