Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, Vol. 2 of 2 The office of a historical society is by no means confined to the revival of the neglected and decayed memorials of former years. Amid our regrets for the successive and irreparable loss of those precious records of our ancestors which time awhile had spared, and which we would fain rescue from oblivion, to be completed, compared, and explained, it is perhaps an injustice to posterity to leave to them the same unsatisfactory task with regard to our age which we have already incurred from those who went before us. All that tends to dignify and augment the attachment which every virtuous citizen feels towards his native soil; all that may enable those who are to come after us to grow familiar with the worth which has preceded them; all that may elucidate the nobler parts of the never-exhausted study of man, or enable the youthful aspirant for honest fame or self-rewarded usefulness so to qualify and direct his efforts as to merit well of humanity, and of a conscience that will not flatter, - all furnishes materials well worthy of future perusal, and fully coming within the scope of our association.
