Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Research and Educational Labor, Illustrated in the Work of Elisha Reynolds Potter: An Address Delivered Before the Rhode Island Historical Society, July 11, 1882 A distinguished member of this Society has been removed by death since our last quarterly meeting, whose constant and valuable labors in aid of our local history, as well as his public services, deserve special recognition. The Honorable EHsha Reynolds Potter, of South Kingstown, died at his home, April 10, 1882, in the 71st year of his age. Born at Kingston, June 20, 1811; endowed with the prestige of his father´s name; prepared for college at the academy in his native village; graduated at Harvard University in 1830; he entered upon the study of law and was admitted to the bar of this State October 9, 1832. The taste for historical pursuits was developed in his early life, and in him we have the remarkable instance of a young man hardly twenty-four years old gathering the scattered and perishing memorials of the settlement of the ancient King´s Province, which, in 1835, under the title "Early History of Narragansett," he gave to this Society for its third volume of collections.
