Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 24: Containing the Baxter Manuscripts This volume completes the documents relating to the Indians of Maine. I have added to them some documentary material taken from the records of the Pejepscot Company, whose land claims were the subject of so many disputes between the savage tribes and the pioneers who settled the eastern part of the state during a considerable portion of the eighteenth century. There can be no doubt that the Indians had valid reasons for opposing the Pejepscot Company´s grants of territory to which they had but a shadowy title, if any, but the political influence of the Pejepscot Proprietors was so great, that in the end the Indians had no alternative but to yield. With the preceding volume, which relates wholly to the Indians, and scattered documents to be found in the earlier volumes, the student will have all the unpublished Indian documents that I have been able to collect. I hope to continue the Documentary History from the date where I left it at the end of the twenty-second volume to the close of the century.
