Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journal of a Voyage From Charlestown, S. C., To London: Undertaken During the American Revolution by a Daughter of an Eminent American Loyalist (Louisa Susannah Wells) In the Year 1778 and Written From Memory Only in 1779 "The John Divine Jones Fund Series" has been so named by The New York Historical Society in honor of their enlightened and generous fellow-member, the late John Divine Jones, whose great interest in the history of his native State has led him to endow the Society with a fund of six thousand dollars for publishing works of an historical nature which may not fall within the scope of its ordinary "Publication Fund." The object of the Series is fully set forth in the Plan and Declaration of Trust on which the Society formally accepted the gift of the Fund for its establishment. It is to print, publish, and sell, under the direction of the Publication Committee of the Society: First, Such manuscript historical and biographical writings, memoirs, documents, and records, private or public, official or not official, ecclesiastical or secular, civil or military, which shall relate to, or illustrate, the history of New York as a Colony or a State, or the history of any of the Dutch, English, or French, colonies in America, and which shall have been written prior to the year 1800. Second, Such historical works or documents relating to the history of New York, or that of the United States, or of either of them, which shall treat of, or relate to, events or persons, which shall have happened, or who shall have died, at least fifty years prior to the publication of the same. Third, That the cost of the volumes be paid out of the Fund; the volumes so printed to be sold under the direction of the Publication Committee; and when the proceeds have been received, the same to be employed in the printing of other volumes, which in their turn are to be sold, and thus permanently to continue the issue of the Series. Fourth, That under no circumstances shall any new volume or volumes be put to press until the proceeds of the sales of the preceding volume or volumes shall be in the possession of the Society, to an amount which shall in the judgment of the Executive Committee be equal to the cost of producing such new volume or volumes.
