Among tie features of the work not unworthy
of attention, it may be proper to mention the large
number of documents taken from the Archives at
Annapolis and at London; new Interpretation of
the provincial charter; the arrival of nearly fifty
prominent families connected with the colonial
ton of Maryland; the foundation of more than
ten distinct settlements upon the Chesapeake, up
on its tributaries, and upon its islands; and no.
tice of the earliest history of several of the coun
ties. The first footprints of the Anglican, and of
the Roman Catholic, of the Puritan and of the
Friend, are studously noted. And the Protestant
Revolution of 1859 is sketched, with the exclusive
aid of documents derived from the English State
Paper Office.
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 10 the
faith of large majority; and to present with the
utmost fairness and fidelity, the claim of the early
Roman Catholic colonists to the honor Of found
ing the first principles of religious liberty in A.
