The Autobiography has therefore been re-cast and illustrated, in the hope and prayer that the Lord will use it to inspire the Boys and Girls of Christendom with a whole-hearted enthusiasm for the Conversion of the Heathen World to Jesus Christ. A few fresh incidents have been introduced ; the whole contents have been rearranged to suit a new class of readers ; and the service of a gifted Artist has been employed, to make the book every way attractive to the young. For full details as to the Missionary's work and life, the COMPLETE EDITION must still of course be referrcd to.

    Old Marblehead Sea Captains and the Ships in Which They Sailed Compiled and Published for the Benefit of the MARBLEHEAD HISTORICAL SOCIETY By Benjamin J. LINDSEY, Treasurer 1915 Copyrighted by BENJAMIN J. LINDSEY, 1915 Marblehead, Mass. ABBREVIATIONS S P - Ship' Paper or Pass (see cut; page 23) C P - Clearance Paper (see Cut) page 52 and 98. M V S - Marblehead Vital Statistics G C. - Capt. George Cloutman's Letter Book G B - Glover Broughton INTRODUCTION The information contained in this volume has been obtained by careful and persistent research from widely distributed sources viz: the Marblehead and Salem and Beverly Custom House Records, original books of the Marble- head Marine Insurance Company, covering five thousand policies running from 1800 to 1840, list of Marblehead Soldiers and Sailors in the Revolutionary War (compiled in 1912-13 by the author), old log books, old letter books, old newspapers, list of Privateersmen of 1812 made up by Capt. Glover Broughton in a memorial to the 34th, 35th and 36th Congresses asking for grants of land for services rendered, and from the descendants of the men mentioned. This volume is intended to be a fairly accurate list of the Old Sea Captains of Marblehead, and the vessels in which they sailed, going to and from foreign ports. The list of the names of the men is very nearly complete, but the list of the vessels is not as satisfactory, it being at this late date practically impossible to obtain complete information. Of the five hundred men mentioned, but two are alive at this time, Captain John D.

    The land of gold; reality versus fiction. By Hinton R. Helper THE LAND OF GOLD. REALITY VERSUS FICTION. BY HINTON R. HELPER. BALTIMORE: PUBLISHED FOR THE AUTHOR, BY HENRY TAYLOR, SUN IRON BUILDING. 1855. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1855, by HINTON R. HELPER, In the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States for the District of Maryland. SHERWOOD & CO., PRINTERS, BALTIMORE. TO THE HON. JOHN M. MOREHEAD, OF NORTH CAROLINA, These Pages are respectfully Dedicated, BY HIS SINCERE FRIEND AND ADMIRER, THE AUTHOR. PREFACE. The land of gold; reality versus fiction. By Hinton R. Helper http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.075 PREVIOUS to my departure for California, near and dear friends extracted from me a promise to communicate by letter, upon every convenient occasion, such intelligence as would give them a distinct idea of the truthfulness or falsehood of the many glowing descriptions and reputed vast wealth of California. In accordance with this promise, I collected, from the best and most reliable sources, all that I deemed worthy of record touching the past of the modern El Dorado, relying upon my own powers of observation to depicture its present condition and its future prospects. This correspondence was never intended for the public eye, for the simple reason that the matter therein is set forth in a very plain manner, with more regard to truth than elegance of diction. Indeed, how could it be otherwise? I have only described those things which came immediately under my own observation, and, beside this, I make no pretensions to extensive scholastic attainments, nor do I claim to be an adept in the art of book-making.
