Passages From the Diary of Christopher Marshall

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The part of the following work comprising the years 1774, 1775 and 1776 was published in the year 1839, and having met with the approbation of those qualified to judge of its merits, extracts from Mr. Marshall''s Diary for the year 1777, are now added. The extracts which I have made for the four following years are sufficient to make a second volume of like size, which, I hope, will one day be laid before the public. The Diary, so far as it at present exists, covers only the eight years from 1774 to 1781, inclusive.
