Note 879 — Chapter XIII · (continued 2)

[In 1844 Georgetown College presented to the Maryland Historical Society a copy of McSherry’s transcript of the Relatio Itineris; and in 1847 Dr. N. C. Brooks made a translation from this copy, which was later printed in Force’s Tracts, iv. No. 12. The Latin text, with a revision of Brooks’s version, was printed privately in the Woodstock Letters, in 1872. Two years later (1874) the Maryland Historical Society reprinted it as stated in the text, following, however, the original McSherry transcript, which had been transferred to Loyola College, Baltimore. This, however, then wanted the concluding pages, but in 1875 the whole was found, which necessitated the printing of a supplement to the Fund Publication of the Society (No. 7) which contained it. The later version of Converse is largely reprinted in Scharf’s Maryland, i. 69, etc.
