Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report of Its Heraldic Committee on the Question, Was John Leverett a Knight? The subject of the following report, now reprinted from the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, if susceptible of indefinite expansion, has been confined, in its present form, to the mooted point submitted to the Heraldic Committee for their consideration. They have studiously avoided whatever might impose an unwelcome task upon their readers, however germane to the inquiry, simply retaining what seemed absolutely indispensable to rendering it intelligible. They could not forget that the magazine is all needed for the material of family history, and has little space to spare for more general topics. The utility of their investigations, moreover, depended upon the accessibility in print of their conclusions, and of the reasons upon which those conclusions were founded, that whoever now or hereafter may care to decide for himself as to their weight, may have them at hand. The utmost brevity, consistent with an adequate statement of the question at issue, essential facts and legitimate arguments, being imperative, that has been their aim. In its original draught and as presented to the society the report was far more ambitious. It enlarged upon all such details of colonial history during the period that Leverett was engaged in public affairs, upon such prominent measures and men as invested the inquiry with any permanent interest. It recalled to mind much that even the most conversant with our early annals can hardly be expected to keep fresh in their remembrance, that bore on either side of the question.
