frequently expressed itself in the form of emotional gatherings, in the camp-meetings and the revivals, where the rude, unlettered, but deeply religious backwoods preachers moved their large audiences with warnings of the wrath of God. Muscular Christianity was personified in the circuit-rider, who, with his saddle-bags and Bible, threaded the dreary trails through the forest from settlement to settlement. From the responsiveness of the West to religious excitement, it was easy to perceive that here was a region capable of being swayed in large masses by enthusiasm. These traits of the camp-meeting were manifested later in political campaigns.

Thus this society beyond the mountains, recruited from all the older states and bound together by the Mississippi, constituted a region swayed by common impulses. By the march of the Westerners away from their native states to the public domain of the nation, and by their organization as territories of the United States, they lost that state particularism which distinguished many of the old commonwealths of the coast. The section was nationalistic and democratic to the core. The West admired the self-made man and was ready to follow its hero with the enthusiasm of a section more responsive to personality than to the programmes of trained statesmen. It was a self-confident section, believing in its right to share in government, and troubled by no doubts of its capacity to rule. FREDERICK J. TURNER.

JOHN GOODBORNE (or Goodbarne), a minister of the Church of England, sailed from England in 1635 as a passenger in the Globe for a plantation in Virginia called Merchant's Hope, in which John Sadler, William Guyney, and others were the adventurers. He died on the voyage, and his effects were delivered by Jeremy Blackman, the master of the Globe, to William Barker, who put them into a storehouse ashore. Blackman and Barker returned to England, where Peter Goodborne, father of John Goodborne, sued them in the High Court of Admiralty and obtained a sentence for the value of the goods. The following schedule of John Goodborne's books and wearing apparel is appended to the libel and appears to be in his own handwriting. The schedule is in tabular form, and the values of the items, in columns, are written thus: ool Ios ood. In the transcript below, some contractions have been extended, and the values are given in modern form. The documents are among the records of the Admiralty Court in the Public Record Office in London Libels 94, No. 204; Libels 95, Nos. 137, 138; Examinations 115, June 17 and July 7, 1637. R. G. MARSDEN.
