| General note | Text consists of two sections: "Extracts of Mr. Von Reck's Journal from Dover to Ebenezer." (p. [1]-26), and: "Extract of the Reverend Mr. Bolzius's Journal, from their arrival in Carolina." (p. [26]-71). Since the original German text of this second journal was composed jointly by Boltzius and Gronau, the present extract in English should also be credited to these two persons.
