Excerpt from Vindication of Volume First of the Collections of the Vermont Historical Society: From the Attacks of the New York Historical Magazine In the former volume of these Collections, published in 1870, an attempt was made to embody in chronological order such authentic accounts as could be found of the proceedings of the different conventions of the inhabitants of the New Hampshire Grants, prior to the establishment of the state government of Vermont in 1778. No original journals of those conventions could be found, and information in regard to their proceedings was sought for in all quarters where it was thought it might be obtained. Among the sources from which information was procured, were the fourth volume of the Documentary History of New York, the published journals of the New York Congress of 1775, the Connecticut Courant published at Hartford for the year 1777, Mr. Slade's Vermont State Papers, the manuscript papers in the offices of the Secretaries of State at Albany and Montpelier, and a Manuscript copy, from what was believed to be an authentic copy of the journals of several conventions in 1770 and 1777. The sources from which the accounts of these proceedings were obtained were distinctly indicated in the publication itself, either by introductory statements or foot notes, so that the verification of each part, and the credit to which it was entitled, could be conveniently tested by historical students. The number of the New York Historical Magazine for January 1871, edited by Henry B. Dawson, Esq., contains a very sharp and bitter criticism on this part of the Society's volume, in which he assumes to have discovered numerous errors and falsehoods of so flagrant a character as, in his view, to justify him in making a charge of intended deception and fraud on the part of the Committee of Publication. He claims that their work is not a fair account of actual proceedings, but is a "reconstructed record" got up by the Committee for the purpose of placing the conduct of the Vermonters in their early controversy with New York on a more-favorable footing than their original proceedings would warrant, and that their publication is therefore "entirely useless as an authority in historical enquiry." This charge of fraud in the publication, if well founded, not only deprives it of historical authority, but ensures the just condemnation of the Committee of Publication by all lovers of honesty and truth.
