The sad death of Mr. Harbottle, just as this work was going to press, has thrown upon me the onus of correcting the proofs and preparing the I ndex. The necessity for hurrying the work through the press has precluded comparison of the references in every instance with the original sources from which the Author had taken them ;if therefore some few printers errors or varieties of spe Uing may still remain, they may, I hope, be attributed to the imperfections of one, who had to step suddenly into the breach caused by the loss of a valued friend and collaborator, whose patience in research, depth of knowledge and accuracy in compilation, he could never hope to equal. October, 1904. P. H. Dalbiac.
