Excerpt from The Story of Edinburgh

I must acknowledge with deep gratitude the help I have received at sundry times from Mr. John Geddie, whose knowledge of Edinburgh, nay, of the Lowlands as a whole, is well-nigh unrivalled; from Mr. M. S. Tait, whose memory covers a retrospect of nearly eighty years, and whose advice on all matters of topography has been of the utmost value. He kindly read the proofs, and suggested many emendations which have been adopted. Mr. David Graham, the well-known author of the popular dramas on Scottish historical subjects - James I., Rizzia, Darn/ey, etc. Has also read the proofs with exceeding care, and favoured me with numerous valuable suggestions while the Rev. J. Wilson Harper, D.D., and Matthew Blair, Esq., headmaster of the Alloa School, have been good enough to read the revises. To all these gentlemen I return grateful thanks.
