Samenvatting
MARGARET BNT ADVENTURER A NOVEL BY DOROTHY FREMONT GRANT Author of What Other Answer War Is My Parish 3 LONGMANS, GREEN AND CO. NEW YORK TORONTO 1944 MARGARET BRENT COPYRIGHT 1944 BY DOROTHY FREMONT GRANT ALL RIGHTS RESERVED, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO REPRODUCE THIS BOOK, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, IN ANY FORM PUBLISHED SIMULTANEOUSLY IN THE DOMINION OF CANADA BY LONGMANS, GREEN AND CO., TORONTO FIRST EDITION This complete copyright edition is produced in full compliance with the Government regulations for conserving paper and other essential materials. PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Lovingly dedicated to ANNA ADDISON MOODY ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Generous assistance has been extended me in the preparation of this work. For her interest and source suggestions I am indebted to Mrs. Richard Robbins Kane of Baltimore, Maryland, a descend ant of the Maryland Brents. My thanks are also due James W. Dyson, Loan Librarian, Mullen Memorial Library, Catholic University, Washington, D. C., for lending me a manuscript entitled Catholic Woman of Colonial Maryland authored by Sister Laurita, S. C. N. of Nazareth Col lege, Louisville, Kentucky. It was through the Rev. Laurence Kelly, S. J., that this manuscript came to my attention. The exhaustive detail given by the author, together with a most extensive bibliography were helpful in the preparation of these chapters. But for the interest and diligence of Edward J. Farren, S .., of Woodstock College, Woodstock, Maryland, I would not be in debted to any of the foregoing persons, for it was through his initial efforts that they so graciously came to my aid. I also thank Edward Farren for his search for pertinent material in the Wood stock Letters. Anaccount of the voyage qf the Chanty may be found in the contemporary letters of the Jesuit missionaries and in the Maryland Archives. But nautical details are beyond the scope of these records. Therefore, I am indebted to my brother-in-law, Gordon Grant of New York, marine painter, builder of ship models, author and playwright, for the salt in Chapter 4, Part I, without which I could not have attempted a realistic account of the Btents voyage to Maryland. Nor may I with good conscience close these thank-yous with out also thanking James H. Drake of Manhasset and New York or his fruitful interest in Maryland research, as well as Mr. and vii Mrs. Albert Heidt Trageser of Manhasset who, in ways too nu merous to mention, have assisted me. I am deeply grateful to all the foregoing. DOROTHY FREMONT GRANT. MANHASSET, LONG ISLAND.

Events removed from their chronological order include a The voyage of the Charity. b The settlement of Providence now Annapolis. c The arrival of Captain Mitchell although his domicile is correct . Even though founded onhistorical fact, this is a work of FICTION and therefore, under no circumstance should it be relied upon for historical reference. DFG. PART I THE ENGLISH BACKGROUND 1638
