Riassunto

Excerpt from Journal and Letters of Rev. Henry True of Hampstead, New Hampshire: Who Was Chaplain in the New Hampshire Regiment of the Provincial Army in 1759 and 1762; Also an Account of the Battle of Concord

The Journal and Letters as printed, are from careful copies made by the late Dr. Henry Ayer True, of Marion, Ohio.

The entries in the Journal and the Letters were often written "with great haste in very discommodious places." It seemed best to print them exactly as written.

Some slight additions are made in [-]. A small portion of the Journal is lost, perhaps a leaf of the first few days, from the time of leaving home until he reached "Number One."

The original manuscripts are in the posession of Henry True, Marion, Ohio, as are also the Bible, and Sermons, with dates at Crown Point, Ft. Edward and Oswego The dates on the Sermons show that in those days Ministers sometimes preached the same discourse several times.

The silhouette of Capt. Barrett was probably taken before his removal from Concord to Union, Maine, and belongs to his granddaughter, Mrs. Mary Barrett True Vose, of Chelsea, Mass.
