Excerpt from William Samuel Johnson and the Making of the Constitution Owing to repeated postponements of the Mohegan case the younger Johnson was absent nearly five years, or until the autumn of 1771. The publication by the Massachusetts His torical Society in 1885, of The Trumbull Papers, contain ing his official correspondence with the Connecticut gover nors, Pitkin and Trumbull, makes it easy to follow his course as colonial agent. In the preface to this volume J ohnson's letters are described as written with great elegance of style, and as graphically reporting parliamentary debates, while the writer is called a man of rare insight, great common sense, and most excellent judgment. Ninety years before, the cor responding secretary of the society, dr..jeremy Belknap, wrote I have read the letters repeatedly with delight, and have gained a better idea of the political system than from all the books published during that period. Mr. Bancroft consulted them in manuscript, and often quotes from them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
