Excerpt from Heraldry; Ancient and Modern: Including Boutell's Heraldry We are taught that a single word spoken, a mere articulate syllable thrown into the air, reverberates through space for ever, seeing that there is no rim against which it can strike, no end at which it can possibly arrive. Similarly I would hope (not as an ingenious speculation) that those who have enjoyed the study of Heraldry may, each in turn, contribute in some measure to extend the knowledge of this delightful science and help to remove the ignorance and confusion which exists, until every person knows, and ceases to violate, its simple rules.

Excerpt from The Antiquities of Heraldry The two most important works of recent times on Heraldry, are Mr. Boutell's English Heraldry Historical and Popular and Mr. Seton's Laxo and Practice of Heraldry in Scotland. They are both copious volumes, highly instructive and valuable; both didactic, and full of well digested information, derived from authentic sources; but argumentative only on points of detail and minor interest, and do not indulge in any discussion, except in the briefest manner, about the antiquity of Heraldry, avoiding altogether the wide and multifarious aspects of the Science which are treated of in the following pages.
