[EAN: 9781332119790], Neubuch, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from A Discourse Concerning the Design d Establishment of a New Colony to the South of Carolina, in the Most Delightful Country of the Universe It will perhaps afford some Satisfaction to the Gentlemen of Carolina to know that my Design arises not from any sudden Motive, but a strong Bent of Genius I inherit from my Ancestors: One of whom was among those knights of Nova Scotia purposely created near a hundred Years ago for settling a Scots Colony in America. But the Conquest of that Country by the French prevented his Design, and so it lies on his Posterity to make good his Intentions for the Service of their Country. The Humour, however, Descended, and ran down with the Blood: For my Father was so far of this Opinion that, together with Lord Cardross, the late Earl of Buchan, and some other Gentlemen he enter d into Measures for Establishing a Settlement on Port Royal River in South Carolina, and Lord Cardross went thither in Person: but the Spaniards dislodg d them and destroy d the Plantation: Advantage being taken of some Confusions which arose through the want of full Powers, and distinct Jurisdiction. The charming Descriptions which on this last Occasion I met with, of the natural Sweetness and Beauties of Carolina, inspired me with an early Affection to that Place in particular. But the Wars intervening, and calling for my Sword in the more immediate Service of my Country, gave me no Opportunity to put in practice certain Schemes which occur d, for effectually forming a settlement there, till just now; when together with some of my Friends who unite their Endeavours with mine, I am like, by continuance of the Indian Disturbances, to enjoy my own Wish, with the Additional Pleasure of being useful.
