Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Military Operations in Eastern Maine and Nova Scotia: During the Revolution, Chiefly Compiled From the Journals and Letters of Colonel John Allan, With Notes and a Memoir of Col. John Allan And here too he saw the documents which have been preserved with great care and fidelity by the tribe. On looking for some published accounts of these matters, nothing of consequence could be found, and then he determined to follow the clew till some explanation could detail what these traditions had foreshadowed. In the course of some ten years the journals of Col. Allan were by the courtesy of George H. Allan, Esq., of New, York, a great grandson of that officer, placed in his hands, and subsequently many valuable documents and letters were loaned him by Peter E. Vose and Nelson S. Allan, Esqrs., of Dennysville, Me. The examination of them indicated that the archives of the state would contain Allan´s official correspondence. A search was made which resulted in finding more than a hundred papers by Allan and others relating to his military transactions. These have been carefully examined and collated, and those containing information of the most importance have been copied. A thorough investigation of these matters, with a comparison of the best histories of the revolution, has resulted in the conclusion that they formed an important part of that history and that they ought to be printed before the loss of the originals might make it impossible. This the writer has found it his duty and pleasure to do, making such additions and explanations as the manuscripts of that period would enable him to give.
