Extract out of the Journal of Mr. Boltzius, Minister of the Gospel at Ebenezer in Georgia “ THE 10th of August, 1741. We have this Year Plenty ”of Peaches, and as this Fruit doth not keep, some of 20 “ our People try to make a certain Sort of Brandy of them, “ others give them to the Swine: This is more than any body “ could have promised to himself, or others, some Years ago. “ Even at this Time, when I am writing this, a Man brings a “ large Dish of blue Grapes to me, grown wild in the Woods; “ they are of a sweet Taste, and pretty like our European “ Grapes; that I am very apt to believe, the wild Vine-Trees, “ if properly managed, would give good Wine. Thanks be to “ our gracious God, who gives us here every good Thing for our “ Support.
