IN rendering G. Mittelberger's Reise nach Pennsylvanien Into English, it has been the translator's aim to reproduce the author's work with the greatest possible accuracy consistent with grammatical correctness, photographing, as it were, the quaint and naive language of the original, although at the sacrifice of elegant diction. In a few instances, where it seemed necessary to make the author's meaning clear, a word or brief remark has been added to the text in brackets [], or a note at the foot of the page.
