Excerpt from A Topographical Account of the Parish of Scampton: In the County of Lincoln, and of the Roman Antiquities Lately Discovered There; Together With Anecdotes of the Family of Bolle In compliance with the repeated solicitations of several learned friends and antiquaries, the Reverend Cayley Illingworth begs to lay before the public, his topographical account of Scampton; intending to apply the profits, arising from its sale to the charitable fund for the widows and orphans of distressed clergymen in the county of Lincoln. The Work not having been originally intended for publication, a plain and faithful detail of facts was much more considered by the compiler, than the exterior dress and ornament of language. In the same simple garb, therefore, he ventures to send it into the world; hoping that the eye of criticism will pass over trifling inaccuracies, whilst viewing the motives that have led to its appearance before the public.
