...placed in that portion of the country which has been termed "the classic ground of America," embracing some places, descriptions of which many have perused since their first juvenile acquisition in the art of reading, but containing others which are not of such world-wide celebrity, yet none the less instructive. Within a radius of a few miles from the College there is abundant material to engage for a long time the earnest attention of the antiquarian, and subjects, too, in which every one interested in the history of his own country should take a just pride.
