THE first impression of this work being sold off, and copies still
enquired for, a second edition has been prepared for publication. In
this edition the Author has taken care to insert such additional
information respecting the places described in the former impression, as
he has been able to procure. A view of the Monastic Remains at Tupholme,
together with a short description of the place, is also added; and for
the drawing from which this view is engraved, the Author has to
acknowledge his obligation to Mr. Espin, of Louth, who kindly furnished
several of the former views.
In order to reduce the price of the book as much as possible, the ancient
and modern plans of Horncastle, together with the Appendix, consisting
chiefly of charters, which were included in the first edition, in this
are omitted.
