An Illustrated History Of The Society Of The Cincinnati In The State Of New Jersey PDF Download

Excerpt from Excerpts of the Proceedings of the Society of the Cincinnati in the State of New Jersey: From May 13th, 1783, to July 4th, 1906 It was thought advisable to undertake this work for several reasons, but chiefly because it is believed that an intimate knowledge of the transactions of the Society and the various proceedings which led up to them must be of deep interest to all members of this order, constituting as do these minutes the veritable history, not alone of the Society as such, but of the actions and sentiments of our forefathers in their representative characters as mem bers of the order. There is, then, a personal as well as an institutional value to a work like this, and it has been the object of the Committee to prepare a book which shall contain the spirit and truth of the proceedings of the Society of the Cincinnati in the State of New Jersey from its birth to the present day, freed from such matter as would by repetition and relative unimportance impede the study of the Society's doings during that period.
