Excerpt from A Short Treatise of the Isle of Man: Digested Into Six Chapters
Had not this volume formed one of the series published by the Manx Society, I should have added largely to the extent of the Notes, by the introduction of many more documents bearing upon Manx history, to which references only are made. These docu ments, having already been printed in the fourth, seventh, and ninth volumes of the Society, under the laborious and careful editorship of Dr. Oliver, and in the first volume (sacheverell's Survey of the Isle of Man), edited by myself, seemed to me likely to create a needless expenditure of print if repeated in this.
