OF attention, it may be proper to mention the large
number Of documents taken from the Archives at
4 Annapolis and at 1london; a new Interpretation of
the provincial charters the arrival of nearly fifty
prominent families connected with the colonial

ten distinct settlements upon the CEesa Peake, up

Reyolnton Of 1859 is sketched, with the exclusive
aid OF documents derived from the English State
Paper Office
IS: But the main object Of the volume-one which
cannot fail, especially at present, to interest the
student OF American history, in every part Of the
United States->is to trace the birth and earliest
growth OF our religious liberty; to give (what has
never yet been in print) the name of every person,
who sat in the Assembly, which passed the cele-
brated federation Act; to sketch the life and char
acter of each member; to furnish key to the
faith of large majority; and to present with the
utmost fairness and fidelity, the clam of the early
Roman Catholic colonists to the honor of found
ing the first principles Of religious liberty in A.
