A30014	Good order established in Pennsilvania & New-Jersey in America being a true account of the country; with its produce and commodities there made. And the great improvements that may be made by means of publick store-houses for hemp, flax and linnen-cloth; also, the advantages of a publick school, the profits of a publick-bank, and the probability of its arising, if those directions here laid down are followed. With the advantages of publick granaries. ... By Thomas Budd.	Budd, Thomas, 1648-1699.	1685 (1685)	Wing B5358; ESTC R222596	25,734	44

the_o cape_n to_o about_o six_o mile_n above_o newcastle_n which_o be_v by_o estimation_n ninety_o mile_n be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n very_o rich_a there_o be_v very_o many_o navigable_a crick_n
