a_o further_a account_n of_o the_o province_n of_o pennsylvania_n and_o its_o improvement_n for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o those_o that_o be_v adventurer_n and_o incline_v to_o be_v so_o it_o have_v i_o know_v be_v much_o expect_v from_o i_o that_o i_o shall_v give_v some_o far_a narrative_a of_o those_o part_n of_o america_n where_o i_o be_o chief_o interest_v and_o have_v late_o be_v have_v

the_o reason_n of_o my_o come_n back_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o lord_n baltamore_n and_o myself_o about_o the_o land_n of_o delaware_n in_o consequence_n repute_v of_o mighty_a moment_n to_o we_o so_o i_o wave_v publish_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v look_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o country_n or_o invite_v to_o it_o whilst_o it_o lay_v under_o the_o discouragement_n and_o

that_o to_o answer_v they_o several_o be_v a_o task_n too_o heavy_a and_o repeat_v to_o perform_v i_o have_v think_v it_o most_o easy_a to_o the_o enquirer_n as_o well_o as_o myself_o to_o make_v this_o account_n public_a lest_o my_o silence_n or_o a_o more_o private_a intimation_n of_o thing_n shall_v disoblige_v the_o just_a inclination_n of_o any_o to_o america_n and_o at_o a_o time_n too_o when_o a_o extraordinary_a providence_n seem_v to_o favour_v its_o plantation_n and_o open_v a_o door_n to_o european_n to_o pass_v thither_o that_o than_o which_o be_v my_o part_n to_o do_v in_o
