Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of Dumfries, Vol. 1 This volume was in the printer´s hands in August, 1914, publication the following month being intended. Acting on the best advice at the time, the Editor decided to suspend publication at the outbreak of war. It is now obvious that no good purpose can be served by withholding publication any longer. During the interval no alterations have been made to the volume - the type having been dispersed - excepting the Pedigree charts. These have been considerably added to, including the new chart of Rig of Dumfries. The Cunynghame chart also has been completely recast. Mr. Shirley´s work on the topography of Dumfries, which the Editor had hoped to include as Introduction to this volume, was completed a year after these pages were in print, and has appeared as a most valuable contribution to the D. and G. N. H. and A. Society´s Transactions, 1914-15. The Editor regrets that by some most unfortunate oversight, the type was dispersed before all the proofs had received final revision, thus necessitating the distressingly long list of errata that follows. - March, 1916.
