Excerpt from The Founders of the First Parish, Dover, Massachusetts: With Descriptions of All the Houses Now Standing Which Were Built Before the Revolution

The founders of the Dover First Parish were a company of men who were descended from those who were identified with the beginnings of American history,- and who resisted what they believed to be tyranny in church and state. For this cause they crossed stormy seas and established a government here in accordance with constitutional liberty. The influence of a church covering more than a century and a half of active service cannot be measured, cannot be weighed. It is a silent influence which has left its imprint on the life of the inhabitants, instructing the children, training the youth, enriching the lives of the people, and withal making the town a better place in which to dwell.

"The task of keeping and preserving our institutions," said the Hon. George F. Hoar, "sometimes seems to me even harder than that of establishing them. What the future may have in store for our children we do not know. What luxury may tempt them, what irreligion or superstition may assail them, what new races may overflow them, we cannot tell. But I believe that the institutions our ancestors planted are to abide. Puritan faith, Saxon reverence for law, New England love of liberty, will leaven the whole lump. The church and the school and the town, which in their simplicity have outlasted so many thrones and kingdoms, will continue."

The history of the church is the early history of the town.
