Overview

Excerpt from Mother Goose's Melodies: Or Songs for the Nursery About the year 1856, a gentleman of Boston, a member of the Massachusetts Historical Society, while examining a file of old newspapers in the Library of the American Antiquarian Society, at Worcester, came across a dilapidated copy of the original edition of Mother Goose's Melodies. Not more than twelve or fifteen pages were left, but, as the price was only two coppers, it is not probable that there were many more. Being in search of other matter, he merely took note of the title and general condition and character of the work, intending to make a further examination of it at another time. Whether he ever did so is not known. His health being impaired, he soon after went to Europe, where he te mained for many months.
