Quotes by Henry Charlton Beck (?)

“But the town was Shelltown and Shelltown is now Ellisdale, a crossroads village near by with old houses of its own. Close by, too, is Arneytown, sinking among memories of the past, its Quaker meeting-house taken down and its red brick smithy closed. But Waln's Mill was apart from even these.”

“What is a forgotten town? Well, there are a number of answers to that one, too. From our standpoint a forgotten town is one whose earlier days have seen a part, however small, in the developing life of the nation, one whose present contradicts its past and whose future may lose all contact with its birthright. A forgotten town is one that shrugged its shoulders and smiled, contented that a relative should be honored, when the spotlight centered on its more important neighbors. Most of the towns mentioned in this book will be revealed as those that were on the edge, but not in the midst, of the big doings. Sometimes these were a year or
two ahead of the times; sometimes they gave up just a little too soon.”

“This was Alec Yarr, who, many years ago, used to pilot a Haddon Avenue trolley from Camden to Haddonfield. Now there are no cars. Buses have answered demands for speed, at the cost of fuming the air and filling it with squeals and droning sounds.”
