Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Biographical Memoir of Hugh Williamson Delivered on the First of November, 1819, at the Request of the New-York Historical Society It is proper for me in this place to acknowledge, that, in preparing the following discourse, in addition to those resources, which an uninterrupted friendship of twenty-five years, with the subject of this memoir, has furnished me, I have received many of the anecdotes and other circumstances relative to the earlier years and education of Dr. Williamson from his family and friends. To his brother. Captain John Williamson, of Charleston, South Carolina - to his nephew, Mr. John Nevin, of Shippensburgh, Pennsylvania - to the late President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson - to the Right Reverend Bishop White - to James Read, Esq. of Philadelphia, and to Mrs. Hall, daughter of the late Dr. Ewing, Provost of the University of Pennsylvania, I am particularly indebted. For several facts relative to the means of classical education afforded by the middle colonies anterior to the American revolution, I also acknowledge my obligations to "the Memoirs of the Life of the late Dr. Rittenhouse, by William Barton, Esq." and to that learned and excellent history of literature and science in this country, entitled, a Brief Retrospect of the 18th Century, by the Rev. Samuel Miller, D.D. How Professor of Ecclesiastical History and Church Government in the Theological Seminary of Princeton College, New-Jersey.
