I could not, if I had tried, have disguised the feelings with which I regarded the attempt to put out of sight the frightful facts which I brought forward and the necessary conclusions to which they led.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
