Prior to that they were sent to Trenton and there retained, originals as well as the recorded copies. The records of deeds began on the 19th of February, 1785, and the deed firt recorded was one executed by Elijah Pierson and others, heirs of Benjamin Pierson, deceased, given to Mary Spinnage and others for land in Hanover, and the will first probated was one made by Nathaniel Horton, of Chester, dated August 27, 1800, and proved February 4, 1804.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Passaic Valley, New Jersey, in Three Centuries: Biographical and Genealogical Records of the Valley and Vicinity of the Passaic, Past and Present The life, character, and celebrity of Dr. Coles, eminent as he was as physician and surgeon. Are chie y connected with his literary and scholarly attainments, his published writ ings, and particularly his religious hymns and translations, which have given him a world-wide reputation. He had earlv in his professional career been a contributor to vari ous periodicals, and short isolated poems had appeared from his pen, but it was not until 1847 that he brought. Out the first of his eighteen translations of Dies Irae, and made a pronounced impression upon the literary world. This hymn, the composition of a monk, was written originally in the Latin of the thirteenth century. It has not only com manded the admiration of critics generally, but has exer cised a powerful in uence upon many eminent characters. Dr. Johnson could not read the original without bursting into tears. Sir Walter Scott repeated portions of it in his dying moments. It was also upon the lips of the Earl of Roscommon the moment he expired. Goethe introduced portions of it in his Faust. It has been set. To the sub limest music and forms the subject of Mozart's immortal Requiem. It has been translated into various languages, but all English versions had hitherto signally failed. The translation of Dr. Coles attracted immediate and wide atten tion. Both in this country and Europe.\lt was set to music in Henry \vard Beecher's Plymouth Collection of Hymns a. Portion of it was introduced into Mrs. Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin; and James Russell Lowell gave it a most favorable criticism in the Atlantic Monthly. In 1855, on his second European tour, while visiting the Lake District, Westmoreland, England (associated with the memory of Wordsworth, Southey, Coleridge, and De Quincy), Dr. Coles wrote his much admired poem entitled Winde mere. In'1859 he published his firs-t translation of Dies Irae, with twelve others which he had made since 1847. This publication received unqualified praise. From the critics, including Richard Grant White, the Rev. Drs. James W. Alexander and William R. Williams, William Cullen Bry ant, and George Ripley, ofthe'tribzme. In 1865 he pub lished his first translation of the passion hymn, Stabat Mater Dolorosa, which, like Dies Irae, has been made the theme of some of the most celebrated musical composi tions. It was set to music in the sixteenth century by Palestrina, and has inspired the compositions of Haydn, Bellini, Rossini, and others. The prima donna, Clara Louise Kellogg, in Rossini's Stabat Mater, used Dr. Goles's translation. Dr. Philip Schaff, alluding to some eighty. Ger man and several English translations that had been made up to that time, said: Dr. Coles has best succeeded in a faithful rendering of the Mater Dolorosa. His admirable English version carefully preserves the measure of the original. In 1866 appeared his Old Gems in New Set tings (3d Ed., in which many treasured old Latin hymns, including De Contemptu Mundi and Veni Sancti Spiritus, are skillfully and gracefully translated. In the following year he published his translation of Stabat Mater Speciosa (2d Ed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The position the State held in the momentous affairs of the middle portion of the Revolutionary -ar, when it was regarded by the veteran generals of King George as the key by which the continent was to be opened up again to British authority, was alone sufficient to exalt it to a position among the shrines of the nation, and it became one Of the spots upon which the struggle for liberty was most strenuously waged, and where it was shown that in military skill and finesse the Continentals were the equal of their adversaries, the veterans of many wars. It was there, too, that - on the glorious field of Monmouth - rose to the height of majesty as a soldier, and vindicated his right to be regarded as one of the greatest captains of his time or of any time.
