Loyalists

Hancock Attends

Dr. Harold Hancock, chairman of the Department of History and Govern• ment, will attend a conference in New York on loyalists during the American Revolution during the winter interterm.

The Program for Loyalist Studies and Publications is sponsored by the American Antiquarian Society. City U· niverslty of New York, University of London and University of New Brunswick. Funds are supplied by several foundations. Its purposes are to survey and collect on microfilm all loyalist records in the United States, Canada and England.

Dr. Hancock is an authority of the loyalists of his native !ftate, Delaware, having written a monograph and half a dozen articles published in Delaware History and the Maryland Historical Magazine. At the present time he is ed• iting a travel account of a loyalist who escaped from jail in Baltimore and concealed himself in Delaware until he could seek refuge on a British warship in Delaware Bay.

Last spring he attended a similar conference at the American Antiquarian Society and during the past summer surveyed loyalist records in Delaware. During the coming summer he will have this data microfilmed for the Program.
