Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
Collections of provincial dialects would often have been extremely useful; 'many words esteemed peculiar to certain counties, being remnants of the language formerly in general use.
But these collections are, unfortunately, few and scanty.
County histories, which have long received the most extensive encouragement, should always contain a careful compilation of this kind from certain and correct authorities.
From these, digested together, the history of our language might ultimately receive important illustration.
