First Sentence
"Having so happily succeeded in the 45th attempt of my aerial flight, in the presence of the enlightened citizens of Philadelphia, I thought I could still afford them some pleasure, by offering to them an accurate description of the operations preparatory to this ascension, and by acquainting them with my various situation[s] during this excursion, as well as with the motives which induced me to return, and the means I made use of to accomplish it."
