Series: 3 NN (Volume 3)
Scope and Content Note: Papers, 1768-1784, of Edward Hand mainly during his service at Fort Pitt and at Albany, selected and copied by Draper in 1852 from originals then in possession of Hand's daughter Mrs. Dorothy Brien and granddaughter Mrs. Sarah B. Rogers. As these originals were later acquired by the New York Public Library, this volume of copies is of interest primarily as an illustration of Draper's research method.
