NOTE.
[figure description] Notice.[end figure description]
The intelligent reader of the following record cannot fail
to notice occasional inaccuracies in respect to persons, places,
and dates; and, as a matter of course, will make due allowance
for the prevailing prejudices and errors of the period to
which it relates. That there are passages indicative of a
comparatively recent origin, and calculated to cast a shade of
doubt over the entire narrative, the Editor would be the last
to deny, notwithstanding its general accordance with historical
verities and probabilities. Its merit consists mainly in the
fact, that it presents a tolerably life-like picture of the Past,
and introduces us familiarly to the hearths and homes of New
England in the seventeenth century.
A full and accurate account of Secretary Rawson and his
family is about to be published by his descendants, to which
the reader is referred who wishes to know more of the personages
who figure prominently in this Journal.
