Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Passages From the Life and Writings of William Penn: Collected by the Editor From His Published Works and Correspondence and From the Biographies of Clarkson, Lewis, and Janney, and Other Reliable Sources William Penn was honorably descended; his paternal ancestors, for several generations, having been persons of high respectability and considerable note in the world. His grandfather, Giles Penn, was a captain in the English navy. His father, Sir William Penn, at an early age, became a distinguished naval oflBcer, and passed rapidly through the successive grades of promotion, so that at the age of thirty-one he was created Vice Admiral. He was a man of good understanding and a thoughtful turn of mind; amiable in natural disposition, but accustomed to the exercise of absolute authority; and honorable, but ambitious of distinction and wealth. William Penn was born in London on the 14th of the Eighth month, (now the Tenth,) A. D. 1644. Of his very early years but little is known.
