    Greeting

    The stream of Conquest has generally flowed from North to South. The Triumph progress of the Goddess Nicotina has been from West to East starting in the 16th. century she has now girdled our little orb with devotees burning continuous incense. The Instruments connected herewith are objects of Historical & Ethnographical interest hence are brought together authentic Portraits of the Pipe Family. Briar root and Branch who judge from the favor in which they are now held. At home & abroad they seem likely to flourish for ever. I cannot close without expressing my thanks to Mr. Bernard Quaritels for placing then before you in their present Garb.

    Your faithful Sinner & Author,

    Robt. Pritchett.
