Author: Hoyt, E. (Epaphras), 1765-1850
Year: 1846
Journals, sequentially numbered, of Epaphras Hoyt of Deerfield, Massachusetts. Most days Hoyt begins with a weather report and then continues on with special events of the day, a book review, a commentary on politics or other issue, an essay on a scientific topic, a travelogue of a trip, or drafts of his various military or historic writings. Present in the collection are journals from 1835-1840, and 1846-1849. The collection also includes one unnumbered journal covering Hoyt's term in the General Assembly in 1832, as well as two notebooks labeled "C" and "D," filled with research notes on the French and Indian War, and the American Revolution. These were likely used in writing Hoyt's "Antiquarian Researches" and his unpublished Saratoga campaign manuscript.; Hoyt writes his own table of contents in almost every book, and also annotates the margins.; Finding aid available in library and online.; Purchased with funds provided by Margaret E.C. Howland, Ann Lord, Deborah Dearborn, and the Estate of David Proper.
