Oxford Printed for the Corporation of Leicester By Frederick Hall, Printer to the University 1919 2. THE collection of books in Leicester which is commonly known there as the Old Town Hall Library is housed, as it has been housed ever since about the year 1633, in the upper story of that part of the Old Town Hall which faces the west end of St. Martin's Church. A bronze tablet affixed to the outer wall bears the following inscription : ' This is the Town Library of Leicester, erected about the year 1632, at the instance of Mr. John Angell, Public Lecturer.' On the north side of the whole group of buildings, over the passage which leads to the little quadrangle, another bronze tablet is affixed, with the inscription : ' This building known as the Town Hall occupies the site of a building called " Corpus Christi Guild " and parts of the original fabric remain. It has be'en used for municipal purpose's since the reign of H. VII.' These tablets were placed in their respective positions somewhere about the year 1870. They represent the current tradition as to a group of buildings of more than common interest. They give the impression, to those who read them to-day, that, in the main, the buildings as a whole took the place of older buildings, once the property of Corpus Christi Guild, and that, in particular, the part used as a Library was erected at the date given. When, however, the buildings themselves are allowed to tell their own story, and the accounts of the Corporation are searched to see if they throw any light on the matter, it is soon found that such an impression does not quite accord with the facts. To begin with the witness of the building itself. If we pass through the passage over which the second tablet is placed into the quadrangle, the dwelling-house opposite is evidently of comparatively modern date and need not detain us. On the right hand we have the western side of the quadrangle the beautiful panelled room, known as the Mayor's Parlour, on the ground floor, which has been recently described as ' a typical example of the manner in which the chief apartments of a fine 876813 vi INTRODUCTION house were adorned in the early part of the seventeenth century '. On viewing this room and that above it we find, along with abundant evidence of the work of adorn- ment done at that time, traces of earlier work, not only in the glass which fills the windows and contains many times repeated the cognizance of the Guild, but in some of the stonework, especially in the upper story. The general impression left, how- ever, is that, whatever may have been preserved, the work of the seventeenth century practically amounted, in this part of the building, to a fairly thorough renovation. But when we pass from the Mayor's Parlour into the Great Hall, once the place where Assizes were held, and still bearing signs of such use, the main features of the fabric tell a different story. The substantial part, the walls and the roof, belong to the middle of the fifteenth century. The panelling at the back of the dais is of about the same date as the Mayor's Parlour. The rail in front of the gallery at the East end from which gallery a persistent, if rather unsubstantial, tradition says that Queen Elizabeth watched the performance of one of Shakespere's plays belongs in character to about the year 1720, and the same date may be assigned to the gallery overlooking the dais in front of what was used as the Grand Jury room. A staircase leads from the quadrangle to the upper story of the eastern part. We pass through a room now used by the Leicestershire Architectural and Archaeological Society into the Library, which is divided from this room by a modern wooden partition. Here the general characteristics are the same as in the western portion. The panelling of both rooms is of about the same date (1637) as that which is in embossed letters on the carved fire-place in the Mayor's Parlour; the beams were cased about the middle of the same century. Yet everything inside and out points not so much to 'erection' or even 'rebuilding' as to 'adornment' and 'improve- ment '. The general indications of such a survey are, that substantially what is known as the Old Town Hall is the older home of the Guild of Corpus Christi, ' restored ', as \ve should say in our day, but not rebuilt, the signs and results of ' restoration ' being more marked and prominent in some parts than in others. The Records of the Borough, especially the Chamberlains' Accounts, which are very clear and well kept, tend to confirm the story told by the building itself. We find from a study of them, first, that while the Hall of the Guild of Corpus Christi was used, from time to time, by the Corporation even in the fourteenth century, it was not purchased until some time during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. One of the conditions of purchase was the continuance of a yearly payment of 7^. yd. INTRODUCTION vii This was continued year by year, and is entered almost invariably as ' for Corpus Christi Hall alias the Town Hall', at least until the year 1775. Next, and chiefly, the actual account of what was expended on the Library in 1633 speaks for itself and may be given in full : THE ACCOMPTS OF THOMAS BURSNALL & ALEXANDER BAKER LATE CHAMBER- LYNS OF THE BOROUGH OF LEICESTER ...

INTRODUCTION xv At the same date he wrote to Dr. Travers, the Rector of Thurcaston, probably his Commissary or Official for the Archdeaconry, requesting him to use his efforts in soliciting the aid of the Clergy in their respective Deaneries. This letter does not seem to have been preserved. The State Papers (Cal. S. P. Dom. 1633-4, p. 392) give a summary of what Dr. Travers wrote. He speaks of the ' pious design of his Lordship who, being a great blessing to the places and times wherein he lives, is both studious of the same and actually has advanced it by many memorable good works, and deserves that his memory should be for ever blessed. Having been happy in works of the like nature in other places, and now beginning a like work among them, many reasons there be which should move them to go after him to that work, the charge and care whereof redound to him, the use and profit to them. The body politic of Leicester lend their helping hand. They have provided the lay part of a library, which is their proper, namely the body and case ; mutual love and correspondency require of the persons addressed that they should animate that body and fill that case with books. He urges them by various considerations to water that which others have planted. He is to give account to the Bishop, by the bearer, and requests them to return their answers by the same person.' The efforts of Mr. Angell and his friends, supported in these ways by a great Bishop, who was himself such a generous patron of learning, resulted in liberal gifts both of money and books. The list of the donors in Nichols' History need not now be repeated. It includes the names of Heyrick of Beaumanoir, Farnham of Quorndon, Hazlerig of Noseley, Pulteney of Misterton and Turvile of Normanton Turvyle, amongst the county families, many of the citizens of Leicester, with the Mayor and the Master of Wyggeston's Hospital at their head, and many also of the country clergy, including Anthony Cade of Billesdon and Richard Rustat of Barrow-on-Soar. In all probability the number of books at first was not large. On a liberal estimate those enumerated in Nichols under the names of the respective donors would be under 300, and if 100 more volumes (also a liberal estimate) be allowed for the remains of the old parochial library removed from St. Martin's Church, the total would be comparatively small. John Angell, who had been appointed Keeper of the Library, is stated to have made a classified catalogue of them to which he affixed the mottoes : Qualis cujuscunque animi affectus, talis est homo. Ubi amor, ibi oculus. This, however, is not one of the rich store of documents which in Leicester have xvi INTRODUCTION | survived the times when such records received little care. It is impossible to say whether or not it included the generous bequest which, a few years after the Library was founded, enriched it with some of its choicest treasures and which must now be mentioned. In the year 1645, under the will of Thomas Hayne, a native of Thrussington who for some years had been resident in London as a master at Merchant Taylors' School and, later, usher at Christ's Hospital Leicester received several legacies, and amongst them the following, which may best be stated in the terms of the will itself. The part of the will which disposes of his books begins with bequests to his nephew ' Mr. Abraham Hayne, Preacher, my Montanus interlinear Bible and Junius and Tremelius his latme Bible and Doctor Willetts Synopsis ', and ' to Mr. Richard Hayne my brother the booke of Martirs in three volumes'. The will then pro- ceeds : 4 1 give and bequeath Master Hugh Broughtons works in fower volumes in quarto, and one finale booke of the lesser treatise bound in russett leather, and his coment on the Revelation, and his large comment in vellum with manie notes written therein, to the library in Westminster Colledge there to be kept for ever.' ' I give and bequeath all my other books whatsoever not above menconed and bequeathed, to the Mayor and Aldermen and Corporation of Lester to bee kept and reserved for ever in a public Library there already made or to bee made hereafter. Item I give for and towards the carryinge of my said bookes to the said Library fower pounds.' The will was executed on September 28, 1640. Hayne died on July 27, 1645, and his will was proved on August 1 1. In regard to certain legacies to the town for the purpose of enabling the Mayor and Corporation to nominate to two. exhibitions at Lincoln College, Oxford, from which he had graduated, the will provided that they should 'not bee payde or delivered to the said Colledge untill the present warres and distractions of Kingdome shall bee ended and Students settled peaceably in the Universities '. No such provision is found as to the legacies of books and the one to Leicester took effect within a few months. The Hall Papers contain letters from Mr. John Hayne, the brother and executor, dated October 4 and 10, 1645, an d in the accounts of John Hynde and William Francke, Chamberlains of the Borough for 1645-6, the entry is to be found : ' p d for the carridge of Mr. Hayne's books from london and other charges as appears by bill x 11 ix 8 iiij d '. A later letter from John Hayne speaks of ' an inventorie ' as having been sent, but jolvn. CWilUcuns, 9W. tBisfut ( \JLrcMnsiic1) cf- IJcrfi 1641 J INTRODUCTION xvii his and the ' bill of chardges ' have both disappeared, and the inventories attached to wills proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury are wanting for that one month (August) in the year 1645. If> then, the question be asked whether Thomas Hayne's books can be identified in the Library at the present day, the answer is, in the first place, that a few certainly can. The well-known Codex Leicestrensis has his autograph on the first folio, together with the autograph (in Greek characters) of William Chark ; another autograph of Thomas Hayne was discovered in making the present catalogue, on the last page of a book or tract by Gibutius among some half illegible scribbling. In the next place the fact that Hayne's autograph and that of William Chark occur on the Codex makes it all but certain that another book bearing Chark's autograph (also in Greek characters) was part of Hayne's legacy. Further, the extracts from the will, as well as a letter to Bodley's Librarian preserved at Oxford (MS. Bodl. Add. A. 64, fol. 133), show that the works of Hugh Broughton were held by him in high esteem, and it is reasonable to conclude that those of Broughton's works now in the Library (and also a work now missing which was in the Library in 1669) were part of his bequest. Nichols tells us, on the authority of MS. details before him which cannot now be found, that Hayne owing to lameness had been a student from his Oxford days, that he was ' a noted critic and excellent linguist and a solid divine, beloved of learned men and particularly respected of Selden ' ; also, that ' the books he bequeathed to Leicester were more than 600 in number, including some rare MSS. and many school books '. It is worthy of note, in view of this statement, that the Library contains now a good many books which bear the marks of having been used in schools, including a Latin Grammar with Ben Jonson's autograph and motto. If we take the number of books before Hayne's bequest at 400, even if allowance be made for the many losses during the eighteenth century and possibly later, there must be still about half at least of Hayne's bequest on the shelves at the present day. No local tradition has survived as to what influence secured Hayne's interest. He had a relative who was Rector of Leire in the County, and who has himself recorded the relationship on the Title-page of a book which he himself presented. Possibly Hayne may have heard in this way of what was being done on the motion and with the approbation of Bishop Williams. Yet as Williams held the Deanery of Westminster with his Bishopric, and had done so much, a few years before, for the Library there, Hayne, who clearly had an interest in that Library, may have been moved to further the work done by Williams in Leicester, by knowing what Williams b xviii INTRODUCTION had done for ' Westminster Colledge ', or even by his own personal enjoyment in sucking honey from the flowers in that ' goodly Serapeum '. A collection of books which has seen but little change and comparatively few addi- tions since the year 1669, cannot fail to have an interest of its own. Whether the catalogue compiled by Angell had been lost in the Civil War or had been taken away by him in 1650, when he could not take the 'Engagement' of the Inde- pendents and, being dismissed from the Confratership of Wyggeston Hospital, left Leicester for Grantham, another Catalogue was written in 1669, which still exists. This is practically a hand-list, giving short Titles and years of publication, with, some- times but not always, the places of publication also. Comparing this list with the books now on the shelves, it is a matter of great regret that the Library was not better safeguarded in the past, and that careless handling and worse have very seriously impaired the present value of the collection as a whole. More than 100 volumes are now wanting, and these include what, if they were still in the Library, would be among its choicest treasures. A further subject of regret is that many of the books now on the shelves have either lost their title-pages or have been deprived of the lower part of them, containing generally an illustration, either emblematical or historical, which presumably was desired by some collector, and was accordingly cut out. Extra-illustrating, which was at one time quite a passion with book-collectors, has been the cause of the mutilation and partial destruction of a great number of choice and valuable books, and a public collection such as this would be peculiarly liable to the raids of unprin- cipled persons, who, perhaps, judged that they had some justification in the fact that nobody cared for ' musty old folios '. The compilers of this new Catalogue have had no little difficulty in some cases in assigning proper dates to books which have been ill-treated in this way. Fair wear and tear is, of course, responsible for a good deal of damage, but when the loosening of the pages of some of the books, or the broken state of the binding, has made repairs necessary, the directions to the binder have not been always correctly given, and the lettering is in consequence very inaccurate. Enough has been said by way of regret for the past, its carelessness, and its mistakes. A much pleasanter task is to turn to the treasures which still remain, and to point out some of the features of general interest. First, no doubt, among the Library's treasures is the Cursive MS. of the New Testament known to the learned as the CODEX LEICESTRENSIS. Except that the beginning is wanting, and the last leaves seriously defective, this MS. is in excellent INTRODUCTION xix condition, and has escaped the injury that has befallen a beautiful. (?) thirteenth- century MS. of the Vulgate, viz. the snipping away of a large number of the blank lower portions of its vellum leaves. The text, however, seems to have been hardly touched, and it is a beautiful specimen of caligraphy. Noteworthy also is a volume of miscellaneous tracts of the thirteenth century bound together. Several of them are imperfect, and they are of varying interest. The' book was sent some years since to the British Museum and examined by the late Sir F. Madden, whose report seems to be incorporated in the list of contents now to be seen at the end of the volume. The contents are partly theological, partly grammatical, partly general. A treatise on dreams, attributed to the prophet Daniel, is among the more curious items.. Another MS. still remaining of those which the Library once possessed is one in English of 2 1 2 folios which has been re-backed and lettered ' Wycliffe's Sermons in MS/ It consists of short postils for the Sundays of the year. These MSS. with a few books have been kept for some years past in the strong room at the present Town Hall. Passing from these to the Collection still in the old Town Hall, Theology is the strongest subject represented and that of the Reformers more strongly than that of their opponents. Conspicuous among the Bibles is Walton's Polyglott (London, 165 7) (containing the Commonwealth not the Royalist dedication), with the Lexicon Orientale, by Golius and Castell. Wechel's editions of Tremellius, Junius and Beza's version, in folio, and also of the LXX and New Testament in Greek (1582), are present but injured. There is the New Testament, Vulgate version, with notes of Arias Montanus (Geneva, 1619); the LXX version of the Old Testament printed at Paris in 1628, and Daniel's Cambridge edition of the New Testament (1542), while of English versions there are 'Cranmer's' (1553), and 'The Bishops" (1595). The Geneva version (1599), the Authorized (1648), and 'Tindal's* Bible (so mentioned in the hand-list of 1669) seem now to be missing. Of the Greek and Latin Fathers we cannot expect, and do not find the critical Benedictine editions, either folio or quarto, but there is a noble copy of Savile's edition of St. Chrysostom (Greek Text) only printed at Eton, in eight volumes folio (1612, 13). Of the same Father there is also the edition of Ducaeus of Bordeaux (Greek and Latin) in six volumes, folio (Paris), and the Latin only in five volumes (1556). Piscator's edition of St. Athanasius (Greek and Latin). xx INTRODUCTION Paris, 1627, in two volumes, is marred by the mutilation of the first Title. Clement of Alexandria (Paris, 1529, two volumes) has also one Title mutilated, also the Basle Edition of 1718. St. Ambrose is the Paris edition of 1549, injured at the beginning St. Augustine, ten volumes in six, is the Basle edition of 1556; St. Basil (Greek and Latin), Basle, 1540 ; St. Jerome, nine volumes in four, is from the famous Froben press, Basle, 1553; St. Gregory the Great is the Antwerp edition of 1615 ; St. Gregory Nazianzen is represented by both the Aldine edition of 1553, in a fine leather binding with heraldic devices, and in the Greek only of Hervagius (Basle, 1550), also in a fine stamped leather cover. Among books printed in the fifteenth century may be noticed : ANTHONINUS FLORENTINENSIS, Summe Pars Tertia (of St. Thomas Aquinas), printed by Peter Trach of Spire, 1488. In the original binding, re-backed, slightly imperfect. ANTONIUS DE BUTRIO, Lectura de translatione Prelatorum. Venice, Bernardinus de Novaria. 1485. Bound in the same volume with the last is JOHANNES DE IMOLA, Opus in Clementinas, Venice, John of Cologne and 'Johannes Manthen Gerettzem, 1480.' A beautiful copy, but wanting the first leaf. LEGENDA AUREA . . . quae lombardica nominatur historia. A very early instance of a Title-page, which is of excellent execution, as are also the initial capitals. It has the badge of 'Jaques Huguetan, libraire en Lyon ', and a colophon stating that the book is for sale at Lyons and in Paris. [1476.] Incipit liber dans modum legendi ABBREUIATURAS, Peter Level in the University of Paris, 1490. A rare book. 1 HENRY HERP (Franciscan), Speculum aureum decem preceptorum dei. Printed at Nuremberg by Antony Koburger, 1481. THOMAS DE ARGENTINA (of Strasburg) super quattuor libros Sententiarum. Printed by Martin Flach, Strasburg, 1490. A fine copy, perfect and with uncut edges, original binding of stamped leather over wooden boards. Commentaries on Holy Scripture are largely represented. HUGO CARDINALIS, in six beautiful folio volumes by Antony Koburger at Nuremberg, 1498 to 1504, claims the first rank. Others can only be barely mentioned. JANSENIUS, Paraphrase on the Psalms, Canticles and Ecclesiastes, Louvain, 1574; CORNELIUS X LAPIDE, in 1 The Editors have to thank Mr. R. A. Peddie for calling attention to the fact that this edition has not been elsewhere noted. INTRODUCTION xxi seven volumes, Antwerp and Lyons, 1615-1635, sadly mutilated, most of the Titles having disappeared. CARDINAL CAIETAN on the Gospels, Paris, 1540; CALVIN'S Commentaries on the Bible, Geneva, 1563-1617; ERASMUS' Paraphrase on the New Testament, Basle, 1541; MENDO^A on the Kings, three volumes, Lyons, 1633; LUTHER, MALDONATUS, MARLORATUS, OECOLAMPADIUS, PAREUS, PELLICANUS, PISCATOR, TOLETUS, ZUINGLIUS, and others. Of Ecclesiastical History there are the two great collections of Margarinus de la Bigne, Paris, 1624. The Titles representing a ship are mostly gone. There is also Concilia Generalia et Provincialia (Greek and Latin), Severinus Binius, four volumes in five, Cologne, 1618. Controversial Theology of course has its considerable place. Under the name of Arminius there is an 8vo volume of Disputations embracing a great part of Theology, and there are two books on Arminianism, printed in London, 1626, one of them by H. Burton. One Brandius introduces lengthy Conferences of Dutch Ministers on the subject of Predestination and the Remonstrants, 1615-18. There are also several 410 and 8vo volumes of Tracts relating to the different controversies in the English Church between 1613 and 1694. School-books, though many have been lost, still form a considerable class. Of Dictionaries and Lexicons there are two by Ambrose Calepin. His Lexicon, diligently corrected and published at Basle in 1530, and his Pentaglottos in Latin, Greek, German, Flemish and French, Antwerp, 1546. Thomas Cooper's Latin-English Dictionary, London, 1545, long the popular Latin Dictionary in England, is in good preservation. There are also Stephanus's Latin and French Dictionary, Paris, 1561, and Suidas' Greek Lexicon, two volumes, Geneva, 1619. There is a fine copy of Erasmus's Moriae Encomium revised by the author (Froben, Basle, 1522), in a choice stamped leather binding, and the same author's Familiar Colloquies (Basle, 1559), De recta . . . pronunciatione (Basle, 1528), and De copia verborum et rerum, a London edition of which the Title is missing. Of editions of the Classics may be noted: Caesar (Basle, 1591), Cicero, Opera (Paris, 1554), and separate editions of De Oratore, Orationes, &c. Virgil, with wood-cut illustrations (Leipsic, 1596), Terence, a Lyons edition of 1560, and the Heautontimoroumenos (Frankfort, 1592). Of Tacitus there is no copy in the original, but Grenewey's Translation (London, 1605). Of Horace also there is no copy, nor of Juvenal, but there is an Index of words occurring in the Satires. Plautus is represented by a Basle edition of 1523 ; Plato also by an edition at the same place xxii INTRODUCTION in 1556, and another, with Ficinus's translation (Frankfort, 1602). Of Aristotle there is an interesting folio volume without place or year, but c. 1490, which contains Commentaries on his works De Coelo et mundo, the Physics, and others. There are also editions of this Philosopher complete works (Greek and Latin), two volumes in four, sine loco, 1597, Organum, Hanover, 1611, and the Ethics, beginning wanting (c. 1530). ^Thucydides in the original is Wechel's edition, Frankfort, 1594, and there is a copy of Hobbes' Translation of "which the Title is missing. lamblichus, 1598, Isocrates, 1502, Appian, 1592, and an Aldine edition of Athenaeus (editio princeps) may also be mentioned. The medical works, with some few exceptions, were not part of the original library or of the earlier gifts to it. They were presented by Mr. Richard Ludlam of Leicester late in the seventeenth century, and many of them bear his autograph. A competent judge in such matters has described them as ' an average seventeenth- century collection '. In all probability it has suffered, like other classes in the Library, by being ' culled over '. Among rare, out of the way books or tracts one may notice : The Seduction of Arthington by Hackett especiallie with some tokens of his unfeigned repentance, London (1592); Cygnaeus (Eusebius), Conspicilium Notitiae inserviens oculis aegris on the Rosicrucians 1619; Pauli de Didis, Sophia Panaretos, a chronogram giving the date, 1618; Neuhusius (Petrus), Pia & utilissima admonitio, 1618; and Kirstenius (Peter), of Breslau, Grammatica Arabica, &c., Breslau, 1608, 10, n, with an appreciation of the author by certain reverend men, 1611. This last may be considered one of the choicest books in the whole collection. It is in splendid condition. One hardly knows whether to admire most the beautifully engraved Title-page or the typical perfection of the whole work. It appears to have been the first attempt at an Arabic Grammar, and the Arabic type had to be cut under the author's immediate direction. In one note he apologizes for shortcomings in spite of his best exertions. The work may well have inspired Archbishop Laud with his zeal towards the Arabic language, of which Oxford University and the Bodleian Library have reaped the lasting benefit. In this work the dates are indicated by Chronograms. A rare collection of Tracts was printed at Basle in 1561. The first by Joannes de Rupescissa is on the five essences of all things ; then follow Arnald de Villanova, De Sanguine humano distillate, Savonarola, De aqua vitae, &c. Very rare also are the two early editions of Seton's Dialectica, 1563 and 1570. INTRODUCTION xxiii A specially choice volume may also be noted Pharmacopoeia Bruxellensis (1641), followed by the Statutes of the Brussels College of Physicians. The catalogue of an old library in a provincial town must be in part of the nature of a guide-book if it is to be of use to the residents and the visitors. For men who have a thorough knowledge of books, all that is needed is an accurate list with dates, places, and sufficient descriptions, in the usual abbreviated forms. But for those who lack this knowledge and yet have a certain interest in books and in what has come down from the past, a larger fullness of detail is needed, if the interest is to be main- tained and the avenues of inquiry kept open. It is for such persons chiefly that this catalogue has been prepared. While doing their best to ensure accuracy on the points which are essential the compilers have endeavoured to give such full and detailed facts as may make it comparatively easy for any local student, of any degree, to follow his bent, if he is specially interested in anything which the Library contains. For this reason they have noted the badges and devices, with their mottoes and legends, which were adopted by printers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and in some cases the quaint conceits of early printed books in other respects. They have also been specially careful to transcribe, or at all events call attention to, whatever they have found in MS. on any part of the books. This has led to some interesting discoveries in the course of their work. The undoubted autograph of Ben Jonson, already referred to, was recognized by Prebendary Deedes some years since, when he was on a visit to Leicester, and the autographs of Thomas Hayne and William Chark on the Codex are noted in Dr. Rendel Harris's work on that MS. published in 1887. But discoveries during the work of preparation include two autographs of the Earls of Huntingdon, who were so closely connected with the Borough in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, a second autograph of William Chark, together with many inscriptions on books given, such as those of representatives of the families of Heyrick, Farnham, Hazlerig, and Turvile. Every name, whether known or unknown, has been copied with the utmost care, and as much MS. besides as space allowed. The results are possibly more suggestive to the compilers than they can well be to others. But a careful comparison of them, together with a little knowledge of local history, will at least add to the human interest of a collection which, it is strange to reflect, was, when it was founded, a modern library, and is now a relic of the far-off past. Two things only need further be said. First, the compilers desire to tender their warmest thanks to the Mayor and Corporation for the confidence reposed in xxiv INTRODUCTION them, especially to Mr. Alderman Sawday, Mr. Alderman Chitham, and the other members of the Estates Committee as also to the late Town Clerk (SirE. V. Hiley), the present Town Clerk (Mr. Pritchard), and his assistant (Mr. Payne), to Mr. Kirkby and Mr. Herne, the Librarians respectively of the Municipal Library and the Per- manent Library, for their readiness to facilitate and help in every way a work which could not be done in a short time, and which needed help of many kinds. And next, remembering the endless possibilities of mistakes where so much detail has to be given, they desire, like the good printers of old, when apologizing for the ' escapes ' in the press, to throw themselves on the mercy of their ' good Readers ' and beg that ' in their fayre charity ' they will pardon all.
