Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Collections of South Carolina, Vol. 2 of 2: Embracing Many Rare and Valuable Pamphlets, and Other Documents, Relating to the History of That State From Its First Discovery to Its Independence, in the Year 1776 Carolina is a fair and spacious Province on the Continent of America: so called in honour of His Sacred Majesty that now is, Charles the Second, whom God preserve; and His Majesty hath been pleas´d to grant the same to certain Honourable Persons, who in order to the speedy planting of the same, have granted divers privileges and advantages to such as shall transport themselves and Servants in convenient time; This Province lying so neer Virginia, and yet more Southward, enjoys the fertility and advantages thereof; and yet is so far distant, as to be freed from the inconstancy of the Weather, which is a great cause of the unhealthfulness thereof; also, being in the latitude of the Barmoodoes may expect the like healthfulness which it hath hitherto enjoy´d, and doubtless there is no Plantation that ever the English went upon, in all respects so good as this: for though Barmoodoes be wonderful healthy and fruitful, yet is it but a Prison to the Inhabitants, who are much straightned for want of room, and therefore many of them are come to Carolina, and more intend to follow. There is seated in this Province two Colonies already, one on the River Roanoak (now called Albemarle River) and borders on Virginia; the other at Cape Feare, two Degrees more Southerly; of which follows a more particular Description.
