For this information on the characteristics of the site of Baltimore as well as for much other useful ma- terial I am indebted to Mr. Wilbur H. Hunter, director of the Peale Museum in Baltimore, who allowed me to draw on a portion of his unpublished manuscript trac- ing the founding and development of the city. Hunter's work also formed the basis for a graduate seminar paper prepared under my direction in the spring of 1968 by Mr. Lawrence E. Parker, a student at Cornell University. Parker used a series of plans of the city in tracing in detail its gradual physical expansion through- out the colonial period. This proved of great value in preparing this section of the present chapter. I have also found useful the works of J. Thomas Scharf. See his Chronicles of Baltimore; and History of Maryland from the Earliest Period to the Present Day. 31. Archives of Maryland, 37: 533-36. 32. Scharf, Chronicles of Baltimore, pp. 35-36. 33. J. H.
