DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Notices Relative to the Early History of the Town and Port of Hull: Compiled From Original Records and Unpublished Manuscripts; And Illustrated With Engravings, Etchings, and Vignettes The following pages lay claim to no higher merit than that of being a faithful compilation of authentic documents, illustrative of the object whi ch the Author has had in view. He has spared no expense of time or labour to render the work complete, and he puts it into the hands of his Subscribers, in the full assurance that they will award him the praise of having, by the simple statement of facts, fully established the point for which he contends. He would have been glad to have the leisure, and, he may add, the ability, to construct from the materials which his resources might have afl'orded him, a history which should have been as gra tifying to the general Reader, as he trusts the Notices, in their present form, will be acceptable to the Antiquary; but whatever might have been his incli nation in this respect, the execution of such a work would, [by the weight of his professional engagements, since the lamented loss of his revered parent and partner, have been rendered impracticable. 'he may, however, be allowed to state, that these avocations, though they necessarily limit his ambition to the humble Office of assistant to the future historian, first directed his attention to the subject of this work.
