Excerpt from The Old State-House Defended From Unfounded Attacks Upon Its Integrity: Being a Reply to (the Third Appendix To) Dr. G. H. Moore's Second Paper, Read Before the Bostonian Society, Feb 9, 1886 In a previous paper Dr. Moore asserted that no such divi sion of the space on the second ¿oor, as the present, existed at any time during the official use of the building by the Legisla ture, Colonial, Provincial, Revolutionary, or State. In 1885 I reprinted, by permission, this first paper in a new edition of the Memorial Volume respecting this building issued by the city, and I made such denial of his assertion as I thought warranted. This second paper is his reply, and it may seem to require a second rejoinder. I hasten to say that our society need not fear the result of this second attack.' Dr. Moore ¿ay not produced any new evidence, and we may continue to occupy these halls, and to invite the public to view them, with a well-founded belief that in the main they are a faithful reproduction of what did exist.
