Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society: 1812-1849 (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society: 1812-1849 The consecutive publication of the Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society begins with the annual meet ing held October 23, 1849, since which date they have been regularly printed to the present time. From 1849 to 1880 the proceedings of each meeting were printed as separate pamphlets, without consecutive pagination or any attempt to form them into volumes, so that each issue is properly a volume by itself, any arrangement into volumes being left to the fancy of the owner, and all references being of necessity by date.
