Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of Robin Hood and Captain Kidd

Society, I availed myself Of some rare documents in my possession, and of some newly discovered materials, for the purpose of showing the true character and relations Of this noted buccaneer. Having been Often requested by members of the Society, and others, to enlarge the narrative and to give publicity to it, I have ventured to do so. The period in which Captain Kidd lived was one of absorbing interest, both in England and in America. He was a partner with men who exerted a controlling influence in the affairs Of government on both sides Of the Atlantic, and it is believed that a true historic investigation of his career will not be without interest to the reader.
