Connecticut as a colony and as a state; or, One of the original thirteen; . y Colonel Albert A. Pope of Boston, who submittedto them a proposition to manufacture for him the ColumbiaBicycle. To this they agreed, and the work of their skilledmechanics, and their high reputation as sewing-machine man-ufacturers, were devoted to the perfecting of the bicycle.The result was so successful that in 1890 Colonel Pope, tofacilitate manufacturing, was confronted with the alternativeof either purchasing the stock of the Weed ManufacturingCompany, or building elsewhere.
