A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

His Grace the Archbishop of York not only gave me free access to the MSS. at Bishopthorpe, but consented to the reproduction of the portrait of Dr. Thomson which forms the frontispiece. To the Bishop of Beverley and Mrs. Crosthwaite I am indebted for their reading of my manuscript, for making suggestions, and giving me facts of much value. The Rev. Canon Watson, Sub-D ean of York Minster, kindly lent me various books ;the late Dr. Ramsay, Chamberlain, York Minster, gave permission for a photograph to be taken of Dr. Thomson smonument ;M r. D. L. Pressly, editor of the Yorkshire Herald, not only placed the files of that journal at my disposal, but made many researches for me. Mr. R. A. D. Booker assisted me on many occasions ;M r. H. A nnesley Voysey generously permitted the publication of the letters of his father, the late Rev. Charles Voysey, and Captain St. Clair Harnett, Mr. J. T. Hildyard, and Miss Edith Milner, all helped in various ways towards the completion of this record. The late Mrs. Thomson (widow of Archbishop Thomson) provided much valuable material on which to work, and I have also been indebted to her daughter, Mrs. John Rennie, for many papers and photographic negatives, from which to make illustrations. My husband has supplied many anecdotes and personal reminiscences, besides reading the work in manuscript and making inniunerable useful suggestions.
