Book Description
Excerpt from The Boundary Lines of Old Groton Well-defined boundaries are of the highest importance to communities as well as to individuals. In the one case they mark the limits of political power, and in the other of landed possession. Oftentimes such boundaries prevent strifes and quarrels, and thus indirectly and silently promote the Christian virtues. During the various stages of civilization, from the earliest days of recorded history, they have been considered absolutely essential to the existence of society; and in the Mosaic code of laws a curse was uttered against the man who should remove his neighbors landmark. The ancient Romans personified this principle of fixed boundaries, and deified him under the name of Terminus. A temple was built in his honor, where he was worshipped by the pagans. The various transfers of territory connected with the town of Groton, in its corporate capacity, have a certain local interest, and in order to gratify it this little book is printed.
