Excerpt from The Pennsylvania-German Society, Vol. 29: Philadelphia, October 2, 1918 Pennsylvania German papers, but he drew almost all of it from Saur's and Miller's colonial papers, and did not by any' means exhaust even these papers as a source of bistori cal information. As to bibliographies of these news papers, there are only two that deserve serious considera tion. Seidensticker in his First Century of German Printing in America names about five sixths of the peri odical publications, although' his usual reliability is not apparent in his statements concerning the papers published in the last two decades Of the century. Moreover, he often does not tell us where the files are located and never describes the state of their completeness. The second bibliography was compiled by Daniel Miller about twenty five years after the appearance of Seidensticker's work in Der deutsche Pionier. He usually followed his prede cessor very closely, often making the same mistakes, even minor ones such as a wrong initial or a wrong date.
