Excerpt from History of the Town of Easton, Massachusetts The pictures which embellish this book are mainly the work of the Heliotype Printing Company, of Boston; and for them the reader and the writer are indebted to the following individuals: To Frederick L. Ames for six of them; to Oakes A. Ames and Governor Oliver Ames, acting together, for five; and to Mrs. Oliver Ames, Sr., E. W. Gilmore, Edward N. Morse, George V. N. Lothrop, the Rev. L. H. Sheldon, the late Jason G. Howard, for one each. The Reed families furnished the picture of Mrs. Olive Reed, and the members of the Evangelical Society paid the expense of the picture of their church.
