Excerpt from Brief History of the New-England Historical and Genealogical Register: Being the Report of the Committee on Publication, Submitted at the Annual Meeting of the New-England Historic, Genealogical Society, Jan 5, 1856 And here it is but just to say, that the Society and all friends of the Reg ister are more indebted than is generally known to Mr. John Ward Dean and Mr. William B. Towne for prompt and most valuable services, at a critical period in the history of our Quarterly, in the autumn of 1861, when they saved it from premeditated death.* They have also rendered, since then, long-continued and unselfish service in its behalf.
