Excerpt from Manchester Streets and Manchester Men IN the present volume the work carried out in the previous ones is continued on the same lines as before. Long Millgate is so full of interesting spots that one is tempted to linger over them, and to say more about them. The Chetham Hospital, the Grammar School, and the Poets' Corner provide ample materials for the writing of a goodly volume on each.

At the same time enough has been written to give the reader some idea of the history of the institutions mentioned. I had hoped to include Withy Grove and Shudehill in the list of streets dealt with in the present volume, but found it to be quite impracticable.
