be pieced together from the accounts by Thomas Mathews, the King's commissioners, Mrs. Cotton, and others. By the aid of an old pen-and-ink diagram of the Susquehannock fort, I have been able to locate the site, and Mrs. Alice L.L. Ferguson to uncover parts of it. The "Dialogue between John Goode and Nathaniel Bacon," which is in the British Public Record Office, throws light on Bacon's plans to draw North Carolina and Maryland into his rebellion, and to resist the redcoats. Important also are the "Declaration of Thomas Swan and others on August 3, 1676", (GO1-37-42); Philip Ludwell's letters to Lady Berkeley and to Thomas Ludwell, and others (Bath Papers); the "Declaration of the People" (Bath Papers); "Grantham's Account" (Bath Papers); Berkeley's account of the rebellion written on board Sir John Berry's ship, February 2, 1677 (Bath Papers). Among the secondary sources are Mary Newton Stanard, _The Story of Bacon's Rebellion_; Thomas J. Wertenbaker, _Virginia Under the Stuarts_; and _Torchbearer of the Revolution_; Philip Alexander Bruce, _The Economic History of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century_, and _The Institutional History of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century_; Wesley Frank Craven, _The Southern Colonies in the Seventeenth Century_; John Fiske, _Old Virginia and her Neighbors_; John Burk, _History of Virginia_; Herbert L. Osgood, _The American Colonies in the Seventeenth Century_. _The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography_, the _William and Mary Quarterly_, 1st and 2d Series, and _Tyler's Magazine_ have printed much material relating to the rebellion, and Dr. E.G. Swem's splendid index covering these volumes has greatly increased their value. * * * * * +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Typographical errors corrected in text: | | | | Page 1: necesssary replaced with necessary | | | +-----------------------------------------------------------+ ***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK BACON'S REBELLION, 1676*** ******* This file should be named 28010.txt or 28010.zip ******* This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/8/0/1/2801
