Excerpt from A Short Account of the Charity and Library Established Under the Will of the Late Rev. Daniel Williams D.D: Printed by Direction of His Trustees to Commemorate the Bicentenary of the Trust in the Year 1916
It had been the hope of the Trustees to print in its entirety the article on Dr. Williams contributed to the Dictionary of National Biography by the Rev. Alexan der Gordon, m.a., which is the standard authority for every detail of the subject; but while the author was ready to fall in with their wishes the publishers did not see their way to granting the required permission, though willing to allow a generous use of the article. Mr. Herford particularly desires to acknowledge his obligations to it.
The illustrations will doubtless enhance the value and interest of the volume for its readers, many of whom have never seen the present habitat of the Library, and very few indeed of whom have known all its homes. The Trustees wish to thank Mr. A. Mackie for his ungrudging bestowal of time and pains in making the photographs for the block prints as perfect as possible.
