OF OUR GREAT FAMILIES. BY EDWARD WALFORD, M.A., AND LATE SCHOLAR OF BALLIOL COLL., OXFORD. HURST AND BLACKETT, PUBLISHERS, PREFACE. HE stories contained in these volumes have THE mostly appeared in The Queen' newspaper, and are very much of the same character as those in the previous Series. The Scottish element, which largely prevails in this Series, I trust will not be unacceptable to my readers. For the outline of some of these tales I am indebted to the pen of my friend, Miss Ellen Guthrie. Hampstead, N.W. June, 1880. E. W. |
