From time immemorial it has been the custom to give every youngster a name, and so the author has christened this unpretentious vokune " The Watch Factories of America." This little work is not intended to be elaborate or even perfect, nor does it present anything new or startling in the way of discovery, but is simply a collection of facts, recorded in presentable shape, in connection with the rise and development of one of the most marvelous growths of mechanical genius of this wonder-working nineteenth century.
