Excerpt from A History of Georgia, Vol. 1 of 2: From Its First Discovery by Europeans to the Adoption of the Present Constitution in 1798 Entering a field of enquiry which has been reaped by four predecessors, I could scarcely expect to do more than glean here and there a sheaf which the sickle had spared, or the reaper neglected.

By virtue of a resolution of the Georgia Legislature, passed December 23d, 1837, the Governor appointed the Rev. Charles Wallace Howard an agent of the State, to repair to London, for the purpose of procuring the colonial records, or copies thereof, now in the Colonial Departments of Great Britain, that relate to the history and settlement of this State. By the further liberality of the same body, the papers which were the result of his mission, were placed in my library, for the purpose of preparing this history.
