Synopsis
Excerpt from Documents Relating to the Colonial History of State of New Jersey, Vol. 13: Journal of the Governor and Council, Vol. I. 1682-1714
Benjamin F. Stevens writes from London: Now for the serious part of your letter - the missing volume of your Journals, 17 03 to 1708. When Nova Caesarea was annexed to the Crown in 1702, a great many disputes followed with the Governor, and I think there is evidence that the missing minutes were never retained by the Board of Trade, but were laid before the Queen and not returned, because in the strictly contemporary arrangement and binding of these minutes, those for 1703 - 8 are not included in the lettering, viz., 1702 and previous are tabbed 'a,' 1709, &c., 'b,' &c. I suggest the possibility of their being at Windsor, but the chance is small of ever finding them.
Mr. Hubert Hall, the efficient officer at the Record Office in the Government search department, has been through everything in the Record Office, whether Proprieties, Planta tions General, or New York, or America and West Indies, in the hope of finding your volume out of place. He has always found the red tabs of the State Paper Office clerk who was responsible for the material of the printed records Of New Jersey.
