Excerpt from A Rough List of a Collection of Transcripts Relating to the History of New England: 1630-1776
This rough list is printed in the hope that it may be of use to a few friends who are interested in the subjects herein treated. Covering a wide range of happenings and nearly one-hundred and fifty years of time it gives many unlooked for hints and clews leading to a better under standing oi our history. The fifty-six volumes covered by this list were gathered together with various objects in view, hence the apparent lack of set purpose in their selection. Such as they are, they are now at the service of those who receive this book from me. Sooner or later they will be given to a library where they can be more freely used by a wider circle of students.
