Excerpt from Highways and Byways in Derbyshire My obligations are many. I have made free use of all books, old and new, relating to Derbyshire, and have borrowed liberally from the volumes of the Notts and Derbyshire Archaeological Society, which is fortunate, above most county societies, in the energy and numbers of its members and con tributors. I am also more particularly indebted to Mr. Edward Hunter, of Ashbourne, for permission to use a short manu script in his possession by the late Lord Denman, to Dr. Wrench, of Baslow, and Mr. Wright, Of Longstone Hall, for much local information, and to Miss Erichsen not only for the charm Of her illustrations but for numerous interesting details relating to persons and places.
