Excerpt from Some Famous Privateers of New England

This brochure, the twenty-fourth of our series, was compiled by Ralph M. Eastman, Secretary to the President and Assistant Vice President of this Company, with the cooperation of Allan Forbes, President, and Ashton L. Carr, Senior vice-president. In his search for material the suggestions and counsel of Charles H. Taylor were found to be of inestimable value, and we wish here to express our deep appreciation of his spirit of helpfulness. He gave us the oppor tunity to see many rare old documents which have added much to the interest of this booklet. The Trust Company also gratefully acknowledges assistance given by Howard M. Chapin, of the Rhode Island Historical Society, the late Beverley Rantoul, Lawrence W. Jenkins of the Peabody Museum, Francis E. Crowninshield, Frederick S. Whitwell, Ingersoll Bowditch, Robert E.
