Excerpt from Memoir of the Life and Character of the Rev. Samuel Bacon, A. M: Late, an Officer of Marines in the United States' Service The late Rev. Samuel Bacon, about two years previous to his lamented death, commenced the preparation of a sketch of the principal events of his life. In this undertaking he was induced to engage, in the expectation of deriving some personal benefit from the recollections which the labour would supply his own mind; and of gratifying and profiting a few friends, to whose perusal it might be proper to offer the narrative. Of this sketch he drew up an outline; in which, were put down, little besides the dates of the principal occurrences of his history, down to the year 1817, and an enumeration of such related subjects as he proposed to discuss in detail. The first chapter only of this outline, was all he lived to complete. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
