Excerpt from Angus, or Forfarshire, Vol. 3: The Land and People, Descriptive and Historical
Angus or Forfarshire has now reached to Volume IIL, the number of volumes originally estimated to complete the work, but owing in a large measure to the interest in the subject taken by many of my Subscribers landed proprietors and others - the material has considerably out-grown that estimate, and as one half of the parishes and matter of much interest have been excluded, I purpose continuing the work to the extent of one or possibly two additional volumes. To my Subscribers I would beg to tender my best thanks, and I trust they will extend to me their kind and valued support for the remainder of the work, my desire being that it may be found as complete in all departments as falls within my power to make it. The remaining material is well advanced towards publication, and will follow in due course.
