Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Coxe Publication Fund, Vol. 14: Proceedings and Collections of the Wyoming Historical and Geological Society; For the Year 1915 The Publishing Committee are confident that the members of the Historical Society, all of whom will receive the present volume of Proceedings, will feel entirely compensated for the long wait that has marked its issue by the charming historical "Reminiscences of Hon. Charles Miner," the author of the History of Wyoming, 1845. They cover a period of sixty-five years of our most interesting National history, written by one whose prophetic foresight anticipated many of the historic and geological developments which, since he wrote, have made the Wyoming Valley doubly famous throughout the land. These Memoirs have also been issued separately as a Reprint, in an edition of three hundred copies, the most of which have been donated to the Society by Mrs. Richardson. These will be sold to public libraries to forward the creation of a Fund to be named "The Charles Miner Fund" for the general purposes of the Society. These Memoirs, with the very interesting Geological paper by Professor James Furman Kemp, Ph. D.; the just and valuable paper on this Society by Dr. Thomas L. Montgomery, and the "Marriage Register" of St. Stephen´s Church, Wilkes-Barre, for forty years, 1820-1860, which is published verbatim, will make a volume that will stand equal to any volume issued by this Society. The "Westmoreland Records", a continuation of what was begun in Volume XI, will probably appear in Volume XV, promised for 1916-1917. Kindly charge any errors to the editor. The only man who never made a mistake was translated to heaven 3,000 years ago, since which no other man has been so blessed.
