Note 301 — SECOND VISIT TO AMERICA.
Reading edition
Oldmixon, in his "British Empire in America," published in 1708, says, "German Town, a corporation of high and low Dutch. There are above 200 houses in it. Peach trees are planted all along before the doors, which, in the time of bloom, make a beautiful road for a mile together. The town is very pleasant and airy, being wonderfully cleared from trees."
