Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The writer of fiction, or rather of history founded on facts, with fictitious superstructure, needs time, or distance of period, between the occurrence of events and their being presented to public no tice, that the fanciful embellishments of imagination may be inter woven without danger of detection. But the writer of sober truth, one that would fain a plain unvamished tale deliver, regrets the absence of those who were cotemporary with the characters and acquainted with the circumstances: Sensible of the value and importance of corroborative testimony, nothing can be more de Iightful than to know that many will rise up and say yes, that account is correct; I was acquainted with the circumstances and knowing to the facts.
