George Minot

The History of the Insurrections in Massachusetts (American Frontier) George Minot Reprint edition

However disagreeable it may be to rei iew the troubles of our country, every patriot will look upon it as his duty, not to let them pass -ivithout notice. The period of misfortune is the most fruitful source of instruction. By investigating the causes of national commotions, by tracing their progress, and by carefully marking the means through which they are brought to a conclusion, 7vell established principles may be deduced, for preseiinng the future tranquillity of the Commoiiwealth. No person, therefore, will consider it as an unnecessary renewal of painful ideas, or as a wanton publication of transactions, which some may wish, what indeed is impossible, to bury in oblivion, when we candidly and respectfully look into the late insurrections.
