Excerpt from Scots and Scots' Descendants in America I am indebted also to the New York Public Library for permission to copy several portraits of distinguished men of the Revolutionary period, and also for portraits to the Historical Catalogue of the St. Andrew's Society of Philadelphia, prepared by the late Robert B. Beath, and for two portraits to the History of St. Andrew's Society of the State of New York, by the late George Austin Morrison, Jr. It is also gratifying to me to put on record my appreciation of the kindness shown by the large number of gentlemen I approached for their biographical material, who received me with uniform courtesy. The biographies of some of these gentlemen that were not ready for publication at this time I hope will appear in the second volume of Scots and Scots' Descendants in America.
