Excerpt from The Life and Times of Gen. John Graves Simcoe: Commander of the "Queen's Ranger's" During the Revolutionary War, and First Governor of Upper Canada, Together With Some Account of Major André and Capt. Brant
I must not omit to mention that I have, in preparing this work, derived great assistance from the writings of Dr. Scad ding, not only from his Toronto of Old, but the Memorial Volume, published to celebrate the semi-centennial of Toronto. I first satisfied myself that some record of the early times of the Province ought to be preserved, and acting upon this inspiration I set about writing this history which I now commit to the reading public, in the belief that its perusal will do no harm, and' may do much good in reviving a memory of the past, and of the first era of a Province now the foremost of the Provinces of the Dominion of Canada.
