Excerpt from Collections of the New-Hampshire Historical Society, Vol. 8: Containing Province Records and Court Papers, From 1680 to 1692, Notices of Provincial Councilors and Other Articles Relative to the Early History of the State It will be seen that the Provincial Records and Court Papers fill 303 pages of this volume. These have all been carefully 00pied from, and compared with, the originals, or with attested Copies of the same. The ancient'orthograpy has been retained in only a part of the articles, and that more as a matter of curiosity than of utility. Many of the original papers were so defaced, torn, or otherwise mutilated, that in some'cases it was impossible to decipher the meaning. Hence, blanks were left. Many names were almost illegible.
