Excerpt from Plain Dealing, or News From New England It is now some time since a friend, knowing that I had some curi osity in relation to matters of antiquity, and thinking I might find some thing to gratify it in a small folio, in manuscript, in broken but venerable binding, which was then in his possession, placed the same in my hands. He did not know the writer or the contents 3 for the style of penmanship was that of more than two centuries ago, and although not unusually indistinct for its kind, could not easily be read by one unaccustomed to the chirography of the time. It proved, on inspection, to be a journal book kept by thomas lechford, whose claim ti) the reputation of having been the first Boston lawyer is, I believe, unquestioned. It con tains a record of the business transactions in which he was, from day to day, engaged, commencing with his settlement in Boston, and con tinned until his return to England; embracing many facts of historical and genealogical interest. I have awaited a season of leisure and relief from other occupations to transcribe and prepare it for publication.
