Description

Excerpt from A History of Nova Scotia, or Acadie, Vol. 1 In the review of the people who inhabited Nova Scotia at successive dates, the. Micmacs, the French, and the English, I have seen many shining and noble qualities displayed in each successive age, both by leaders and followers. Some faults they had - isome crimes were committed but we; whosucceed them, may be happy if we can shew the courage, the endurance and generosity that are the attributes of the early adventurers and settlers of Acadie. Some periods of our history afford but little matter for connected narrative. At other times interesting transactions occur which do not form part of the regular sequence of events. In such cases I have preferred to place them in appendices to the chapters, instead of omitting them entirely, as I am anxious to preserve every thing of genuine interest that I have found in my enquiries. The leading idea with me has been to preserve from oblivion the past occurrences in this province. The frequent change of masters - the misfortunes that have often retarded its progress to civilization, and the varying effects that the contests of two great and noble nations have had on its des tiny, will hereafter give scope for philosophical minds to review, and for eloquent writers to expatiate on.
