Excerpt from Capt. John Mason, the Founder of New Hampshire: Including His Tract on Newfoundland, 1620; The American Chapters in Which He Was a Grantee; With Letters and Other Historical Documents, Together With a Memoir

After Mr. Tuttle's death his manufcripts were placed by the Prince Society in my hands, with the requeft that I would prepare them for the preis. This I have done to the heft of my ability. I have {pared no labor in my endeavor to make the work creditable to the Society, to the memory of Mr. Tuttle, and ufeful to the hiftorical ftudent. All that was ready for the preis when I received the papers were the memoir and the foot-notes to which the letter T is appended. The writing out of the narrative portions of the work, and the collation and annotation of the documents have been done by me. I have alfo made ufe of other materials oh tained by myfelf or furnifhed me by friends. The reader will readily fee that Mr. Tuttle ihould not be held refpon fible for any of the opinions exprefi'ed in this volume, ex cept fuch as are found in thofe parts which I have named as proceeding from his pen.
