This volume was originally compiled between 1859 and 1860 from information housed at the British Archives, and contains numerous lists and ship entries of the names of individual ship passengers, who were some of America's earliest emigrants. The method and content of documentation varies among the numerous vessels undertaking the voyages, but often includes the names of family members, the occupation of the passenger, age, and the reason for the voyage. In most every entry, the date, the port of embarkation, and the port of debarkation is included. Most of the lists and documents contained in this work are dated in the early 17th Century.

From their first settlement. Drawn up from published and other well authenticated records of the alleged operations of witches and their instigator, the devil. This is the first attempt, so far as is known to the writer, to collect together the annals of witchcraft in the United States. It has doubtless been a question with all readers of accounts of the witchcraft cases which have occurred in America, how it happened that they were so similar to those which took place in England. The question is easily answered; in other words the similarity is easily accounted for. Witchcraft was imported by those who first practiced it in the States, and was perpetuated by the importers and their immediate descendants. This volume is written in Old English text.
