Excerpt from The Founders of Maryland: As Portrayed in Manuscripts, Provincial Records and Early DocumentsEvery year, the citizens Of ancient Padua crowd the costly church, dedicated to their townsman, the Italian Saint Anthony, and hang upon its walls, or around the shrine, sketches in oil, or water colors, commemorative of important events in their lives.One of the many good results of the centennial year of the American Republic, is the taking down from the garrets, the neglected portraits of our forefathers, the removal of the stains and dust, the substitution of new frames, for those battered and worm eaten, and in remembering their labors for posterity.With the aid of manuscripts, brought to light during the last decade, and access to the papers of the British Record Office, we can now portray more accurately, and hang in a better light, the founders OF maryland.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
