Those Valuable Historical Papers.

The original records of the Vermont CO.
lonial conventions which were found
among the manuscripts i'm the congress
sional library last summer have been lith-
oeraphed and published with an histori-
cal Introduction by Senator Redheld Proc
tor. IT is proposed to lodge the originals
in our state library, II an arrangement
can be made with the government The
volume Is in folio size and will be of
value in any historical library. The state
was very careless with its early records
This is true Of many of our towns also.
Hundreds of manuscript volumes con-
tanning original Vermont documents are
deposited i'm the Albany library, and the
recovery of the records at Washington
should he followed by "A renewal Of the
effort started 10 years ago to buy or OBJ
tain possession as custodian of the Albany
collection.
The history of the discovery of the Yer
mont convention records is briefly this:
Lawyer A. :. Batchcllor Of Iittleton. n
H., informed Judge Jonathan Ross last
year that he had seen in the congressional
library the early Vermont convention rec
ords. Judge Ross passed the information
over to Senator Proctor, who has taken
some pains to clear up their history
These sheets were cut out of an old ac-
count book of Br. Jonas Fay. They were
evidently stolen and possibly sold to the
government Fay was secretary of most
of the early conventions. The senator
has been fortunate enough to recover the
account book from the widow of f. b.
Stafford. which will be presented to the
Vermont historical library. The next step
will be to obtain from the general gov
ernment the sheets that were stolen and
to have them restored to their original
places in the Fay book Capt Joseph
Bowker, who presided at most Of these
conventions, was a Rutland man. He is
buried at Centre Rutland, but his grave is
unmarked.
