Those who most properly should have written its story were prevented by other more press ing duties. Finally, after nearly two years had elapsed, and after various unsuccessful attempts, the material, such as it was, was placed in the hands of the present writers, on whom the task had unexpectedly devolved. At a distance so far removed from the actual occur rence, the particulars of many things which had not been reduced to writing had passed from memory, many papers had been mislaid or lost, and the work was one of extreme difficulty. The writers, therefore, hope that they may be pardoned for many errors and slips of detail, in the hope that they have given a toler ably faithful picture of the general features of the Fair. They owe many thanks to the many persons who have assisted them in their work by conversation, by letters, and by papers.This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
