Volume Two of Historic CiTniden Among the things of genial interest to Camdenites during the holidays was the appearance of the second volume of Historic Camden which is one of tho most complete histories of its kind known. Messrs. Kennedy and Kirkland do not give us merely facts and dates but the manners and customs of the people beginning with Camden as a village until the homes we are living in and have been able to let us feel the atmosphere of the place as perhaps no others could. These gentlemen, born and reared in Camden and knowing and living every part of her have given her their best. It is not cut and dried history we are reading but delightful talks of our own .people and our own home town and we, their descendants, should give this work our unstinted praise. The whole state is benefitted by this delightful book. Only through the Volume One could the wonderful pageant of 1926 have been made possible. *i It was a marvelous illustration of Historic Camden which has been-so graphically told by our fellow townsmen.
