Excerpt from The Journal of Dr. John Morgan of Philadelphia, From the City of Rome to the City of London, 1764: Together With a Fragment of a Journal Written at Rome, 1764 and a Biographical Sketch Because of its special value to the many mem bers and connections 'of the Morgan family and its allied branches, as well as of the growing interest in all the early makers of American history, and the identification of the writer with one of the most important institutions in that day and this, in Pennsylvania, this volume is published for private circulation by Colonel Morgan and David T. Watson, Esq., of Pitts burgh, descendants of Colonel George Morgan, of Prospect, Princeton, New Jersey, and Mor ganza, Washington County, Pennsylvania, in order that the name and works of John Morgan, of Philadelphia, may not be forgotten. It has been thought best to reproduce the orthogra phy of the manuscript as closely as possible.

Through the courtesy of Dr. S. Weir Mitchell, some leaves from one of the lost manuscripts recovered and presented by him to the College of Physicians, of Philadelphia, have been ap pended to the main body of the Journal.
