Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of the Five Indian Nations of Canada, Vol. 1 of 2: Which Are Dependent on the Province of New York, and Are a Barrier Between the English and the French in That Part of the World On the death of Lieutenant-Governor de Lancy, in 1760, Cadwallader Golden, as President of the Council, came to New York, took up his residence at the Province House in the fort, and administered the Government until his appointment as Lieutenant-Governor, which took place in August, 1761. "Governor Golden," says Verplanck, "was a scholar of various and extensive attainments, and of very great and unremitted ardor and application in the acquisition of knowledge. When it is considered how large a portion of his life was spent in the labors or the routine of public office and that, however great might have been his original stock of learning, he had in this country no reading public to excite him by their applause, and few literary friends to assist or to stimulate his inquiries, his zeal and success in his scientific pursuits will appear de serving of the highest admiration.
