Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Penn's Treaty With the Indians
IN this book is narrated, as our fathers transmitted it to their chil dren, the story of the Treaty, the Founder of our State made with the Aborigines, at Shackamaxon. To its pledges his children and his fol lowers were true unbrokenly for generations. We preserve its mem ory, sacred in act and spirit in our generation, so that his and our posterity will be as a long chain of which he was the first link, and when one link ends another succeeds and then another, being all firmly bound together in one strong chain to endure for ever.
