Thomas amory, the son of Jonathan and Rebecca Amory, was born at Dublin in May, 168 2. His father, a merchant on the banks of the Liffey, soon removed with his family to the West Indies, and, about 1690, to Charles ton, where he appears as speaker of the Assembly in 1696. The boy was sent back to London about 1694, and was for several years at school. After the death of his father, in I 699, he spent the years 1706 — 1 7 1 8 at the Azores, engaged in business. His letter books give a Vivid picture of trade in countries which are to us only lands of bygone adventure and romance — where trade was carried on by the use of coins known to the American schoolboy only as the cur rency of Flint and John Silver. He was English and Dutch consul at Angra, and his correspondents ranged as far north as Portsmouth in New England, where he did busi ness with George Jaffrey.
