Excerpt from A Search for a Pamphlet by Governor HutchinsonSome of the contributions to the pamphlet literature of the period which treat of the currency were written by persons who were not only ignorant of the first 'principles of the laws of economics but were also unskilled in letters. It were vain to seek for the authorship of many of these, but the success which has rewarded the intelligent and discriminating study of Mr. Trumbull may perhaps hold forth encouragement to others less qualified for the task to apply his methods in work of a similar nature where there are indications that results can be obtained. It matters not whether the search be for an author who has concealed his personality, or for a pamphlet said to have been published by some well-known writer. The tests to be applied in either case will be the same. It is the latter task which I have set myself, the basis of my work being the statement made by P. O. Hutchinson, in the Diary and Letters of Thomas Hutchinson, that in 1736 the Gov cruor published a small pamphlet upon the subject of paper money.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
