Description:Excerpt from The Commemoration The decorations employed in the celebration are in part reproduced in the illustrations of this volume. They are partly taken from the Rev. Mr. Foote's "Annals of King's Chapel;" while for the portraits the Committee are also indebted to the courtesy of Messrs. Ticknor and Company, publishers of the "Memorial History of Boston;" to the owners of those which have been specially photographed for this volume; and to Messrs. Houghton, Mifflin, and Company, and to Mr. Justin Winsor, publishers and editor of the "Narrative and Critical History of America," for permission to use that of Lieutenant-Governor Dummer from the fifth volume of that work. The drawing of the exterior arrangement of flags is made by Mr. J. Templeman Coolidge, 3d, for this volume. The cut on page 2, representing the church when it was approached by several steps, before Tremont Street had been filled in to a uniform level, and before the balustrade on the roof had been removed, is enlarged from one by Abel Bowen about 1833. The die on the cover is copied from one impressed on "Bridgman's King's Chapel Epitaphs," and is taken from a picture painted for the Rev. Mr. Greenwood about 1830. It shows not only the church but the burial-ground as it then appeared, before a desecrating hand had removed the gravestones from the graves to which they belonged.
