Excerpt from A Discourse on the Early History of Pennsylvania: Being an Annual Oration Delivered Before the American Philosophical Society, Held at Philadelphia, for Promoting Useful Knowledge, Pursuant to Their Appointment in the Hall of the University of Pennsylvania, on Wednesday the 6th of June, 1821 Six years have elapsed since a committee was instituted in the bosom of this Society, whose labours were principally directed to the object of making researches into the history and antiquities of America, but more partien larly of our own state. This committee have not been remiss in their exertions; with the aid of several of their zealous and patriotic fel. Low citizens, (whose names and services have been gratefully recorded) they have succeeded in collecting ample and precious materials, which only wait for the hand of the artist to work them into shape. It was hoped that the impulse thus given would have been caught by some able writer, who, availing himself of these rich stores, would have combined the scattered facts into a faithful and elegant narrative. But our expectations have hitherto been deceived, and Pennsylvania still wants an historian. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
