Excerpt from A Tribute to the Principles, Virtues, Habits and Public Usefulness of the Irish and Scotch Early Settlers of Pennsylvania We have presumed to offer the sketch herein contained as our Tribute to the memory and reverence of those settlers. The writer, feeling as if the sand of his Time glass was nearly run out, and that he ere long must be laid aside from labor, and that if any thing were done by him in vindication of the principles, virtues and habits, of these settlers of a past age, it must be done quickly - has hastily thrown together in his leisure hours, taken from other avocations, the remarks contained in the subsequent pages. It has little merit, other than a compilation from public documents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
