Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of New England, Vol. 2 of 3: During the Stuart Dynasty In this continuation of my History of New England, I have not seen reason to depart from the plan on which the First Volume was constructed. I may be judged to have given too much space to the contemporaneous history of England. But this will not, I think, be the opinion of such as have well considered to what a controlling extent New-England politics were affected by existing relations - whether of antagonism or sympathy, of apprehension or reliance - to principles, parties, and men, powerful in the parent country. Preceding and passing events in England seemed to me to be the indispensable background, on which the nearer objects of the picture were to be projected, in order to be seen in their right position. In justice to my view of the proper manner of composing history, it has been necessary for me to throw into notes a variety of details, which appeared to be fit accessories to the main narrative, but which, had I attempted to interweave them in it, would have interrupted its continuity. If I might presume to give advice to my readers, it would be that they should peruse each chapter without attending to the notes, and then recur to them in connection with those statements, in the text which they are respectively designed to fortify or to illustrate. A large portion of them will attract only the student who desires to know the authorities for my narration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of the Stuart Dynasty, Vol. 2 of 2 We have seen that a dread of popery was scarcely more a characteristic of puritanism than of patriotism, through the whole of this reign. The fears of our forefathers on this subject are not unfrequently noticed by their descendants with a supercilious smile, as betraying a very childish estimate of danger. But, if it be remembered that these apprehensions were entertained by some of the most sagacious men then living, modesty may suggest that they were not altogether irrational. It is certain that since the elevation of Laud, conversions to the catholic faith had frequently taken place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of the Stuart Dynasty, Vol. 1 of 2 The revolution of 1688 is the acknowledged epoch of our civil and religious liberties. That revolution, though accomplished with little effort and without commotion, was the result of a protracted struggle in behalf of popular rights, and of one maintained chiefly by religious men. In its earlier stages this patriotic contention derived its main strength from the puritans; and to the last, when it received important aid from members of the established church, it was an object of the utmost solicitude with the body of English nonconformists; nor is there any hazard in saying that their weight was then found sufficient to turn the scale on the better side.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Royal House of Stuart, Vol. 2 of 2: From Its Origin to the Accession of the House of Hanover Early in 1596 a convention of the General Assembly was held in Edinburgh, at which the King was present, and delivered a speech in favour of the Protestant ministers, and in favour of planting kirks and augment ing the stipends so far as the consent of the nobility could be obtained. This speech gave the clergy great satisfaction, and they reminded the King that he had still to drive out of the country divers Jesuits and excommunicated Papists.

Download or read book The Stuart Dynasty written by Percy Melville Thornton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stuart Dynasty: Short Studies of Its Rise, Course, and Early Exile, the Latter Drawn From Papers in Her Majesty's Possession at Windsor Castle The historical chapters on the Stewards of Scotland and on the earlier Kings of the Stuart race, preceding those papers of Her Majesty's at Windsor, which form the main attraction of this work - were compiled for the most part before that exhibition of pictures and relics which became so popular during the winter of 1888-9. A prolonged illness made it impossible to produce any book in time for last year's Stuart Exhibition, and now on the eve of public attention being directed to the Tudor epoch in English history, these studies appear. That the time is not, however, inopportune, a survey of the conflicting ambitions and consequent rivalries of the two families of Tudor and Stuart will prove; while the fact that Margaret, sister of Henry VIII., by her marriage with James IV. of Scotland, linked the two dynasties together by the ties of kinship, and brought it about that their respective interests should soon become identical under one crown, made each of those historical subjects attractive in connection with the other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Royal House of Stuart, Vol. 1 of 2: From Its Origin to the Accession of the House of Hanover We do not wonder that the Scottish Parliament made it a condition that after that period no Catholic could sit on the throne of Scotland. It is very noticeable that the son of James VII., the Chevalier St. George, would have succeeded Queen Anne but for this prohibitory statute. All the eloquence of Queen Anne, however, would not induce him to change his religion and accept the crown, and so the House of Hanover was called in, and the House of Stuart became extinct.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stewart's Genealogical and Historical Miscellany, 1918, Vol. 2 From a book kept by a Doctor who had a large practice in Burlington County, N. J., I copy the following. There were twenty - three sets of twins and one of-triplets. The fee charged is set opposite each entry and varied considerably and probably depended on the wealth of the parents. It ranged from a few Shillings to five pounds. In cases of twins it was his practice to charge no fee. There is nothing to indicate the name of the doctor except two undecipherable initials which may be J. R., J. B., I. R., or I. B. Again I met with surprises when I not only found my ancestors, Joseph Steward, Sr., and his son, Joseph, Jr., and his wife, Ann, and her parents, Nathaniel and Ruth Robins, but also Richard and Elizabeth Kirby, ancestors of my own wife. The doctor must have been prominent and well known and it is quite possible that someone will be able to identify himfrom the initials which not only appear on the tattered cover but also on a leaf of the book. In a few instances I may have made a mis take in interpreting the spelling, but al most without exception I have indicated doubt with a question mark (p).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Stewart or Stuart Family Take pride and interest - old stories of the Royal house, old stories of reckless bravery, of scions of the Royal stock who were good and true friends, but fierce and bitter enemies - stories of the progenitors of the race who fought hard, lived hard, and died as they fought and lived. Those olden days may seem a time of scant respect for law, of misdirected chivalry and of brave deeds often wrongly done, but there is surely no true Stewart or Stuart who, in his inmost heart, is not proud to claim descent from the illustrious race, whose ancient records are replete with many regal and romantic tra'ditions, reminding all who hold, or shall hereafter hold, the honored name, that they.
