Many thanks to all you 'local members who have recently contributedmaterials to the library. There is not space to list them all, butI do want to mention some of those ~ho made large donations.Mrs. R. T. Doughtie gave nearly.twenty years of the "Indiana·Historical Magazine" and the "Illinois Historical Magazine";Mrs. Scott Julian gave the comp1ete set of "The. Southern Libraryof Literature"; Caya Phillips, several years of ''The NationalGenealogical Society Quarterly"; Mrs. James Murphy, a variety ofbooks; Hughes and Standefer, copies of their recently publishedbooks.

After that the King was held responsible forprovisioning the crews. When the'Heraldry of the Ports began cannot beconfirmed, however, each port and each ship had its own seal or grant ofarms.
