Mr. Hals has very naturally been induced to give the history of this
parish, particularly of Fentongollan, and of every one connected with
it, at great length; but he has done this in a manner so diffuse and
incoherent, that the Editor has thought it expedient to omit nearly
the whole, and to substitute a short abridgment made by Mr. Lysons
from Hals and Tonkin, although this will include some repetition from
the latter.
