Excerpt from Transcripts From Ancient Documents in the English Archives in London
The following documents were copied from papers among the Eng lish Archives in London, under the supervision and at the expense of the late John Scribner Jenness, of Portsmouth. Mr. Jenness caused a few copies to be printed, but none are now to be obtained; and as the papers give much light concerning the early history of New Hampshire, which is nowhere else to be found in this country, and for which there is considerable demand among historical students, it has been deemed best to print them in this volume.
Much credit is due to Mr. Jenness for procuring these transcripts, and rendering them available to the public.
Many other documents relating to New Hampshire, of dates sub sequent to these, are to be found in the English Archives. The Historical Society of New Hampshire has obtained copies of some of them, and a calendar of many others, which it is hoped will be printed in the near future, and the matter they contain thus made accessible to our citizens. - ed.
