Excerpt from Three Lectures on Gaelic Topics
The three lectures or papers comprised in this little volume were not originally intended to see the light of publication. They were written, in every case, at a few days notice, and at different periods during the last twelve months. Though I have revised them for publication, yet I have not, by any means, made so many emendations as I would like, preferring to send them forth as nearly as possible in their original forms.
