 The Early Records of the Town of Newport, 
 
 now in the custody of the Newport 
 
 Historical Society 
 
 At the time of the British evacuation of Newport, in 
 October, 1779, the early records of the town were carried 
 away in a small vessel accompanying the fleet, m charge of 
 the Tory Sheriff, Walter Chaloner. 
 
 This vessel was wrecked in Hell Gate, and the records re- 
 mained under water for several days, becoming thoroughly 
 soaked before they were rescued and placed unopened in a 
 New York store house. 
 
 When they were returned to Newport, in 1782, it was 
 found that the earliest and latest volumes were completely 
 destroyed, and the others were in a dilapidated and perisha- 
 ble condition. They were placed in the vault at the old City 
 Hall, but there were no facilities for their proper care, and 
 even the tenderest handling produced further decay. 
 
 As these old documents are necessary in obtaining clear 
 titles to property, back to the early days, and are of great 
 value and interest to antiquarians, the Newport Historical 
 Society felt that an effort should be made to rescue the 
 papers from such an unfortunate condition, and agreed to care 
 for them and superintend their restoration. Under a resolu- 
 tion of the City Council, in January, 1894, the records were 
 deposited with the Society, and since then the volumes have 
 been arranged by the librarian and then preserved by the 
 Emery Record Preserving Company in Taunton, whenever 
 appropriations have been made by the city, for this work. 
 
 The Emery Silk process i-enders the damaged records ac- 
 cessible and insures them from future deterioration. It 
 consists of preserving each leaf or document, between sheets 
 of transparent silk, which leaves the writing as clear as 
 before, and even clearer after exposure to the light and air. 
 New margins of inlaid paper which protect the writing at the
 
 edges of the original leaves help also to make a strong 
 binding. 
 
 Since the Newport records have been deposited with the 
 Historical Society, many volumes have been arranged, pre- 
 served and indexed. Hundreds of visitors have examined 
 them, and many letters have been received and answered 
 concerning them. They are always carefully guarded, and 
 are placed in the vault especially erected for them, when not 
 in use. 
 
 All who appreciate the charm and interest of these old 
 papers are cordially invited to see them while they are in the 
 custody of the Society.
