Excerpt from Diary of Captain Thomas Rodney: 1776 1777; With an Introduction

This paper was read before the Historical Society of Delaware by the late C�sar A. Rodney, on January 2, 1877. His brother, Mr. John M. C. Rodney, at the request of the society, has kindly permitted its publication.

At a stated meeting of the Historical Society of Delaware, held at its rooms in the city of Wilmington, on Monday, the 15th day of September, 1884, the following minute of the death of C�sar A. Rodney, submitted by Judge Wales, was adopted and ordered to be entered on the journal:

"Since the last meeting of this society it has lost one of its most valued and active members by the death of C�sar A. Rodney, which occurred on the 23d day of June, in the present year.

"By this sad event we have been deprived of the companionship and assistance of one who always took a zealous interest in the welfare of the society, and was ever ready by his personal services and contributions to promote its aims. He bore a name that has long been honorably associated with the history of Delaware, and he felt a just and worthy pride in the fame and distinction achieved by his ancestors.
