MUNICIPAL RECORDS PRINTED.

(11 S. ii. 287, 450, 529 ; iii. 493.)

f ONCE more let me say that this list is not perfect, and that some works marked " In Progress " in the British Museum Catalogue when I started are completed by this time. My list is compiled from the B.M. Catalogue, and some of the additions were not in the Catalogue at first, and some are not even yet. For instance, the ' Records of Inverness,' by Mackay and Boyd, mentioned by MR. P. J. ANDERSON, had not even reached the B.M. authorities when I received the proof of the last list which the Editor kindly sent me. On making inquiries, I was, as a favour, shown the book, which bears the date 1911 on the title-page, so the omission was not my fault.

Gould's ' Records of Dorchester ' was not in the Catalogue when the first part of my list appeared. I am too deeply sensible of the good work done by MR. E. A. FRY to resent any criticism from him, but my imperfect list was a correct description of the ' Dorset Records.' when it appeared.

The same remark applies to MR. BEAVEN. I am well aware how conscientious and in- dustrious he has been in all his work. I am not going to deny that the chronological order in his case is not the best, especially with regard to Bristol ; but as he has a more important work on London, I Avill defer a few remarks till that.
