The original edition is, apparently, a revision and enlargement of a pamphlet published in London in 1634, entitled: "A relation of the successful beginnings of the Lord Baltemore's plantation in Mary-land." The earlier relation may have been based on a narrative written by Andrew White, the Jesuit father who accompanied the first colonists to Maryland. cf. Steiner, Beginnings of Maryland, Beltimore, 1903, p. 8.
"Memorandum on the charter of Maryland [signed, Brantz Mayer; dated, 25th October, 1866]": p. [75]-78.
