Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account, Shewing the Progress of the Colony of Georgia in America, From It's First Establishment Rison was relieved with Provisions through the Metanges, a small Inlet about Four Leagues to the Southward of the Bar, which might have been prevented, had those of a difi'erent Command done their Duty. Thus I leave any impartial Man, to judge the Consequence of their Departure at so critical a Juncture, and the fatal Event it produced to his Majesty's Land Forces. However, his Excellency's Conduct has been approved of at Home, and will soon appear in such a Light, that his Enemies will be ashamed of their impudent Lies, and perhaps pay for their own Folly; and how far the ill-nature, and impotent Ma lice, of the Authors of the Narrative, have carried them beyond the Bounds of Truth or good Manners, will appear in the fol lowing Sheets, which give a true and authentic Account of the Progress of that Colony, from it's first Establishment, to the Year 1741, which being published by the Order of the Honour able the Trustees, and printed in London, Anno 1741, is now Re-printed here, with no other View, than to obviate the Pre judices which may be raised in the Mnds of People, by that Scandalous Narrative, and so may be a Means of delivering that New Settlement, from the ill Eject of such Misrepresentations as are handed about by that Libel, to deter his Majesty's Subjects from settling in that Frontier Colony, so necessary for advancing and protecting the Trade of this, and our Mother Country, on the Southermost Part of North America, and extending our Colonies both on the Gulf of Florida, and the Bay of Mexico.
