Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of a Botanical Excursion in the Northeastern Parts of the States of Pennsylvania and New York: During the Year 1807 The manuscript Journal of the eminent botanist, Frederick Pursh, came into the possession of the American Philosophical Society, among some papers accompanying the herbarium of the late Dr. B. S. Barton. An entry occurs on the first page of this manuscript, made probably by the executor of Dr. B., viz: "Ms. Journal of a Botanical Excursion in the North eastern parts of Pennsylvania and in the State of New York. By an unknown person who appears to have been a German, & a friend of the late Dr. Benj. S. Barton. Found among the Books of Dr. Barton after his death in 1817." Being the acting Librarian of the Society, this interesting little volume has recently fallen under my eye, my attention was directed, to the following remark which occurs under date of July 20th, by a gentleman who had previously seen, and casually read, the manuscript: "Mr. Geddes brought me to a deep valley, about one mile from his house, where we ascended a steep, very rocky hill; there large masses of rock seem to be piled up or tumbled over one and another in such a confused manner, that it has left large chasms between them, which sometimes appear like caves." After enumerating a number of plants collected, he continues: "And what I thought most of, Asplenium scolopendrium. This Fern, which I don't find mentioned by any one to grow in America, I always had a notion to be found here, and indeed I was quite rejoiced to find my prejudice so well founded in truth."
