PREFATORY NOTE TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. As several persons in America have, without any authority whatever from me, undertaken to publish my four volumes of "Notes," I deem it my duty to inform the reader that I have given full permission to Messrs. LOIZEAUX BROTHERS to publish an edition of those books in such form as they shall consider most suitable. 6 West Park Terrace, Scarborough. May 1st, 1879. C. H. MACKINTOSH. |
