Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tories, or Loyalists, in America: Being Slight Historical Tracings, From the Footprints of Sir John Johnson and His Contemporaries in the Revolution Sir John Johnsons life of exile, spared by the tides of a century which have effaced many of his once deeper im pressions on American affairs. They casually fell into the writers historical collection, mingled with other imported manuscripts, proving at least, that some antiquarian in the old world had considered them worthy of preservation. The knowledge that amongst such fragments have been found the key to valuable facts, and the elucidation of past events obscured by time, has, as we know, caused a growing interest in the preservation in public or private collections or in print, of anything of a public character, produced by the brain and hands of men who made some mark on their time before passing away. What seems of little value to one, may become of interest to another, and we know that there are few things existing which have not a place when the problem of supply and demand is solved. Even a rock which has long cumbered the ground becomes valuable when broken up and concreted into a wall.
