PREFACE

An antiquary lights on many a curiosity whilst overhauling the dusty tomes

of ancient writers. This little book is a small museum in which I have

preserved some of the quaintest relics which have attracted my notice

during my labours. The majority of the articles were published in 1869. I

have now added some others.

LEW TRENCHARD,

_September 1895_.
