Excerpt from The Life of William Alexander, Earl of Stirling; Major-General in the Army of the United States, During the Revolution: With Selections From His Correspondence The chief materials of the following memoir lay for many years unknown in the possession of the widow of its subject, and were not examined until some time after her decease. They were then lost sight of for a long period, in consequence ofa hasty removal from an alarm of yellow fever, and when recovered they were presented to the Historical Society of new-york, as a fit depositary for documents serving to illustrate our revolutionary annals. As the author is well aware that Whatever of value or interest may attach to his work will be due to the correspondence it embraces, he cannot forbear expressing his regret that a number of the most im portant letters in the original collection are not now to be found. They were selected from the mass, and laid aside for greater security but, as not unfrequently hap pens in such cases, they were lost - perhaps, brough the very means intended for their preservation. This accident is the more to be lamented, as the letters inxiv preface. Question comprised the correspondence of Lord Stirling, both during his residence in England and after his return to this country, with the Earls of Chatham, Bute, and Shelburne, Mr. Charles Townshend, Mr. Wedderburn afterwards Lord Loughborough - and other British states men, upon American affairs, during a period when most of those persons were cabinet ministers, and all of them members of Parliament.
