Letters of James Savage to His Family (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Letters of James Savage to His Family It may seem inconsistent that the first letter should be one addressed to a stranger; but as its date, two years after his graduation from college, marks an unusual experience for a young man, twenty-two years of age, I venture to insert it. In 1805, Mr. Savage's cousin, the late Frederic Tudor, engaged him to accompany his elder brother, William Tudor, to visit the principal islands of the West Indies, for the purpose of establishing the ice-trade there.
