412 NOTES 



P. 2ig Among the most pronounced of these ad- 

 venturers was the celebrated " Lord of Newburyport," 

 Timothy Dexter. 



P. 232 Apparently Dr. Schoepf was not familiar 

 with Jeffery's Atlas (ed. 1768, 1775, 1776, 1782). Jef- 

 fery's map of Pennsylvania, (ed. 1782) after W. Scull 

 1770, delineates the mountains well, and should have 

 been useful to the traveller. 



P. 242 The journey seems to have been made from 

 Nazareth to Pittsburgh in a chair, or chaise. The ex- 

 cursion to Wyoming was apparently by horseback. 



Dr. Schoepf's visit to Pittsburgh is mentioned at 

 p. 86 of Sarah H. Killikelly's History of Pittsburgh, 

 Pittsburgh, 1906.

 burgh, Vol. IX, No. 7, pp. 203-215. 



P. 245 The figures used here were doubtless taken 

 from American Husbandry, London, 1775, 2 vols., an 

 extraordinary book, which owed a good deal on the 

 political side to Governor Pownall's Administration of 

 the Colonies. 



P. 260. See, ' A Narrative of the Incidents attend- 

 ing the Capture, Detention, and Ransom of Charles 

 Johnston, of Botetourt County, Virginia, who was 

 made Prisoner by the Indians, in the year 1790; to- 

 gether with an interesting account of the fate of his 

 companions, five in number, one of whom suffered at 

 the stake. To which are added Sketches of Indian 

 Character and Manners with Illustrative Anecdotes.'
