For obvious measures, the chronological sequence of the various immigrations to Amer ica has not been followed. While Swede and Hollander and Huguenot brought to the New W'orld personal qualities of great worth, and which were all-important in the making of the present - day American, the English, and, somewhat later, the Scotch - Irish, his nearest kins men, brought equally valuable elements of moral and mental strength, and, besides, those political ideas and institutions which were destined to overshadow and finally supplant those of all other peoples. Out of these have grown our present - day legislative and governmental methods, and our jurisprudence.
