First sentence: While historians have made diligent search in the state paper office of Great Britain for documents illustrative of the early colonization of the territory comprised within the limits of the United States of America, they appear to have overlooked the most valuable manuscripts of that period, in the Library of Congress, which are the minutes and transactions of the great London corporation, known as the Virginia Company, from the year 1619 to its dissolution, and written out by their own secretaries.
