Sewall: A Memoir So few of Mr. Sewall's contemporaries are now living that the material for a memoir of him has necessarily been limited. Moreover, immersed as he was in the conduct of affairs, he could never be a voluminous letter-writer. His daughter, Mrs. Cabot, has collected such survivals of his corre spondence as she has been able to procure, and has chosen from among the family letters those which can be given to the public. If by these an impres sion of his character and personality is given, her main desire with regard to the volume will have been fulfilled. Valuable preliminary notes and information have also been gathered together by Mr. Francis Jackson Garrison. His kind care of the memoir from first to last, and the indispensable daily collaboration, through all parts of the book, of Francis Buchanan Tiifany, are gratefully acknowledged.
