Description: Language: English CHAPTERS ON ITS HISTORY, TOPOGRAPHY, ANIMALS AND BIRDS, ENTOMOLOGY, FLORA, FUNGI, GEOLOGY OF THE DISTRICT, AND FOREST MANAGEMENT. PREFACE TO NINTH EDITION: THE last edition of this book was exhausted in 1915. Owing to the Great War and the difficulties of republication I have hesitated to embark on another edition, but as the public have absorbed since its first inception many thousand copies, and I have had many calls for it, I have ventured on a new edition. Owing to the new facilities of transport and the enormously increased number who avail themselves of them to visit the Forest, I hope to appeal to a wider public. Those whose duty it is to manage the Forest are the target of numerous criticisms and suggestions. I have therefore written a chapter on the Management of the Forest, in which I have examined the debatable questions of policy and principles upon which the well-being of the woodland and its continued natural character depend. The number of those who study some branch of natural history within the precincts of the Forest is largely on the increase. I have endeavoured to give some directions for the guidance of these students, and I have been so fortunate as to secure the co-operation of Mr. T. V. Holmes, Mr. Henry Woodward, Mr. W. Cole, and Mr. M. C. Cooke, in those branches of science of which they are distinguished exponents. Since the first issue of this book in 1885, Mr. Fisher’s learned and exhaustive work on the Forest of Essex has appeared. To its pages I am indebted, and to them I would refer all who desire to study those ancient forestal customs upon which I have but briefly touched. I am also indebted to the late Mr. W. C. Waller, who has laboriously unearthed and translated many ancient documents which throw light on those laws and practices which have been instrumental in handing down to us our superb fragment of eatural forest. E.N.Buxton.
PREFACE: THE idea of writing a Guide to the Forest occurred to me when I observed how small a percentage of our summer visitors ever venture far from the point at which they are set down by train or vehicle. This is hardly a desirable state of things; and as steam merry-go-rounds and ” five shies for a penny” can be enjoyed with equal facility in London, it seems a pity not to encourage, as far as lies in one’s power, a more enterprising spirit. It appears that this reluctance to enter the thicket springs, not from indifference to the attractions of the Forest, but solely from a dread, not unnatural to those unaccustomed to the country, of losing the way; and I hope that clear directions how to find, and followr, the most beautiful and interesting routes will be appreciated. I trust I am not egotistical in thinking that, as I have lived all my life in one or other of the Forest parishes, and for many years have been in the constant habit of exploring its inner recesses, the public cannot have a better adviser than myself in this matter. I am aware that some excellent cheap Guidebooks to the Forest have been published; but they do not enter with sufficient minuteness into topographical details to serve as a handbook to the stranger who desires to penetrate the wilder parts of the wood. An essential part of my scheme is that the descriptions should be accompanied by correct maps of a scale sufficiently large to facilitate identification of the leading features. Taking the official map published by the Conservators, which is of the scale of 3 inches to the mile, I have divided it into sections of a convenient size, which, after careful correction, have been engraved with great care by Mr. Stanford, to whose manager, Mr. Bolton, my acknowledgments are especially due. To the Itinerary I added an historical chapter, believing that those who use the Forest would wish to know the influences which, centuries ago, made it what it is, and how it came to be rescued for their enjoyment. For some very useful suggestions bearing on this part of the work I have to thank Sir Arthur Hobhouse and Mr. Robert Hunter, than whom no men are better acquainted with the legal aspects of the question. I find that the most intelligent interest is taken in our woodlands by those who there pursue their studies in one or other of the branches of Natural History. Many of them are of humble station; but as members of Societies, which are very numerous in London, of botanists, ornithologists, fungologists, and microscopists, they are enthusiastic searchers into nature. I have therefore added some chapters on the different forms of life which they may expect to find in the course of their rambles. In this task I have been much assisted by such able naturalists and experienced observers as Professor Boulger, Mr. J. E. Harting, Mr. English, and others. Mr. Heywood Sumner has embellished the text with some charming drawings, some of which I hope will incidentally be of value in helping to identify the features and landmarks by which I have sought to point out the way. To Mr. J. Wycliffe Taylor and to Mr. Moon 1 am also indebted for some beautiful sketches, most truthful to nature, in the one case of birds, and in the other of flowers. I have also to thank my brother-verderers and
several of my neighbours for many valuable suggestions.

AUTHOR

Reid, Douglas Arthur (2 June 1833-1924) medical student, King’s College London, 1851; served in the Crimean War, 1855-1856. FORMERLY ASSISTANT SURGEON 90th LIGHT INFANTRY

PUBLISHED

LONDON, THE ST. CATHERINE PRESS, OSWALDESTRE HOUSE, NORFOLK STREET, W.C. 1911

DESCRIPTION

With a number of illustrations from Photographs and Sketches taken during and after the Siege-not hitherto published-and a comprehensive Map, showing the position of the contending Armies in the various battles. DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THE RIGHT HONOURABLE FREDERICK ARCHIBALD VAUGHAN THIRD EARL CAWDOR. “This book, does not pretend to be a history of the Crimean War. It is simply a record of events that transpired in and around the British Camp in the Crimea between January 1855 and June 1856, more especially in the Light Division, of which my regiment, the 90th Light Infantry, formed a part. I say “my regiment” designedly, because, it must be remembered, the medical officers were at that time gazetted to, and wore the uniform of, the regiments in which they served, exactly in the same way as the executive officers, and, as a rule, remained with the corps until promoted. They had relative rank according to length of service, but no military titles as in the present day-nor did they seek them. By adopting the term “memories” I consider myself relieved from the necessity of arranging the various incidents in strictly chronological order, although I have endeavoured not to take too much latitude in this direction. It was my custom to write a home letter every week from the time I left England until my return. I have those letters in my possession at the present time, eighty of them, and in the following pages I have had recourse to them when in any doubt as to facts or dates. Here and there I have had to refer to Kinglake, Russell or some other authority to ensure accuracy, and as a check upon any camp “shaves,” contained in my letters, that might not be strictly trustworthy.” British Museum Integrated Catalogue entry.

Description: Language: English In writing the history of a parish for either local or general use, it is necessary to know where to look for information. In these pages will be found attempts to give some brief hints under various heads, together with specific information as to records, manuscripts, and printed books, which bear upon the particular branch of the question. It seems, however, right that two or three general directions should first of all be given.

Description: Language: English Thomas Arnold (June 13, 1795 – June 12, 1842) was a British schoolmaster and historian, head of Rugby School from 1828 to 1841. (source wikipedia) Arnold was born on the Isle of Wight, the son of William Arnold, an inland revenue officer, and his wife Martha de la Field. He was educated at Winchester and Corpus Christi College, Oxford. There he excelled at Classics and was made a fellow of Oriel in 1815. His appointment to the headship of Rugby, the famous public school, after some years as a tutor, turned the school’s fortunes around, and his force of character and religious zeal enabled him to turn it into a model followed by the other public schools, exercising an unprecedented influence on the educational system of the country. He is portrayed as a leading character in the novel, Tom Brown’s Schooldays.

He was involved in many controversies, educational and religious. As a churchman he was a decided Erastian, and strongly opposed to the High Church party. In 1841, he was appointed Regius Professor of Modern History at Oxford. His 1833 Principles of Church Reform is associated with the beginnings of the Broad Church movement.[1] He was also one of the Eminent Victorians in Lytton Strachey’s book of that name. His chief literary works are his unfinished History of Rome (three volumes 1838-42), and his Lectures on Modern History. He died suddenly of angina pectoris in the midst of his growing influence. His biography, Life of Arnold, by Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, one of Arnold’s former pupils, is considered one of the best works of its class in the language.

Extracted from preface: The sources from which this work has been drawn have necessarily been exceedingly various. It was in fact originally intended that the several parts should have been supplied by different writers, as in the instance of the valuable contribution which, in addition to his kind assistance throughout, has been furnished to the earlier part by Mr. Justice Coleridge; and although, in its present shape, the responsibility of arranging and executing it has fallen upon one person, yet it should still be clearly understood how largely I have availed myself of the aid of others, in order to supply the defects of my own personal knowledge of Dr. Arnold’s life and character, which was confined to the intercourse I enjoyed with him, first as his pupil at Rugby, from 1829 to 1834, and thenceforward, on more familiar terms, to the end of his life. To his family, I feel that the fewest words will best express my sense, both of the confidence which they reposed in me by entrusting to my care so precious a charge, and of the manifold kindness with which they have assisted me, as none others could. To the many attached friends of his earlier years, the occurrence of whose names in the following pages makes it unnecessary
to mention them more particularly here, I would also take this opportunity of expressing my deep obligations, not only for the readiness with which they have given me access to all letters and information that I could require, but still more for the active interest which they have taken in lightening my responsibility and labour, and for the careful and most valuable criticism to which some of them have allowed me to subject the whole or the greater part of this work. Lastly, his pupils will perceive the unsparing use I have made of their numerous contributions. I had at one time thought of indicating the various distinct authorities from which the chapter on his ” School Life at Rugby ” has been compiled, but I found that this would be impracticable. The names of some of those who have most aided me will be found in the Correspondence. To those many others, who are not there mentioned- and may I here be allowed more especially to name my younger schoolfellows, with whom I have become acquainted chiefly through the means of this work, and whose recollections, as being the most recent and the most lively, have been amongst the most valuable that I have received-I would here express my warmest thanks for the more than assistance which they have rendered me. Great as has been the anxiety and difficulty of this undertaking, it has been relieved by nothing so much as the assurance which I have received through their co-operation, that I was not mistaken in the estimate I had formed of our common friend and master, and that the influence of his teaching and example continues and will continue to produce the fruits which he would most have desired to see. The Correspondence has been selected from the mass of letters preserved, in many cases, in almost unbroken series from first to last. One large class- those to the parents of his pupils-I have been unable to procure, and possibly they could not have been made available for the present work. Another numerous body of letters-those which were addressed to scientific or literary men on questions connected with his edition of Thucydides or his History,-I have omitted, partly as thinking them too minute to occupy space wanted for subjects of more general importance; partly because their substance or their results have for the most part been incorporated into his published works. To those which appear in the present collection, something of a fragmentary character has been imparted by the necessary omission, wherever it was possible, of repetitions, such as must necessarily occur in letters written to different persons at the same time, -of allusions which would have been painful to living individuals,-of domestic details, which, however characteristic, could not have been published without a greater infringement on privacy than is yet possible,- of passages which, without further explanation than could be given, would certainly have been misunderstood. Still, enough remains to give in his own words, and in his own manner, what he thought and felt on the subjects of most interest to him. And though the mode of expression must be judged by the relation in which he stood to those whom he addressed, and with the usual and just allowance for the familiarity and unreservedness of epistolary intercourse, yet, on the whole, the Letters represent (except where they correct themselves) what those who knew him best believe to have been his deliberate convictions and his habitual feelings. The object of the Narrative has been to state so much as would enable the reader to enter upon the Letters with a correct understanding of their writer in his different periods of life, and his different spheres of action. In all cases where it was possible, his opinions and plans have been given in his own words, and in no case, whether in speaking of what he did or intended to do, from mere conjecture of my own or of any one else. Wherever the Narrative has gone into greater detail, as in the chapter on his ” School Life at Rugby,” it has been where the Letters were comparatively silent, and where details alone would give to those who were most concerned a true representation of his views and actions.

Description: Language: English Preface: In Scotland during the eighteenth century there were only two outstanding events which, after the Union, specially belong to its history the Rebellion of ‘15 and the Rebellion of ‘45. Besides these rebellions, we find as State affairs of Scotland chiefly obscure intrigues of factions, Whig and Tory, Presbyterian and Jacobite; measures managed by leaders of Scottish business, who were servile followers of English ministries; manoeuvres of Scots nobles and placemen who travel southwards on horseback or in coach to win favour with great statesmen at Westminster or courtiers at St. James’s figures not very real to us to-day as they flit across the stage, ” transient and embarrassed phantoms.” To the end of the century when Henry Dundas was ” uncrowned King” of Scotland, pulling every political wire, and making local magnates and voters in town and country obsequiously move like puppets at his will political life in North Britain was virtually non-existent.

This book, however, does not treat of stirring and striking episodes such as the Rebellions, with their elements of high romance not unalloyed with dingy intrigue: for these a sketch would be too little, and here a history would be too much. Still less does it concern itself with the ways of politicians, who often mistook state craftiness for statecraft, from the pettifogging schemers at the beginning of the century to the dictatorship and despotic party domination at the close: these interested the country a little at that time, but they interest us very little to-day. The following pages treat of the social condition of the country chiefly in the Lowlands and the internal changes through which it passed during a hundred years, with details which the historian dismisses with impatience as unconsidered trifles marring the dignity of his theme and disturbing the flow of his narrative. Yet, after all, it is in the inner life of a community that its real history is to be found in the homes, and habits, and labours of the peasantry; in the modes, and manners, and thoughts of society; what the people believed and what they practised; how they farmed and how they traded; how the poor were relieved; how their children were taught, how their bodies were nourished, and how their souls were tended. On this last subject it may be thought that too much has been said that the religious and ecclesiastical state of Scotland has been dealt with on a scale too large and disproportionate. It must, however, be remembered that such a part too large and disproportionate it also formed in the existence and concerns of the people. No doubt many of the religious ways and habits, the old-world theology, have long ago vanished, leaving only memories, humorous, pathetic, or bitter, behind them; curious convictions that once were charged with dangerous force in sectarian polemics are now cold and harmless, like exploded shells on an old battlefield. But it is impossible to understand the character and conduct of the Scottish people without knowing those bygone customs and beliefs which were once full of intense vitality. Nowhere were Church spirit so keen, Church influence so far-reaching, and Church affairs so intimate, as in Scotland. Probably no period was so quietly eventful in shaping the fortunes and character of the country as the eighteenth century. Others are more distinguished by striking incidents, others are more full of the din and tumult and strife which arrest attention and are treated as crises, although they may neither stir the depths nor affect the course of a people’s life; but in that century there was a continuous revolution going on a gradual transformation in manners, customs, opinions, among every class; the rise and progress of agricultural, commercial, and intellectual energy, that turned waste and barren tracts to fertile fields stagnant towns to centres of busy trade a lethargic, slovenly populace to an active, enterprising race an utterly impoverished country to a prosperous land. These facts constitute the real history of the Scots in the eighteenth century.
The literature of the period, which developed so marvellously after the middle of the century, is only slightly indicated in this study of the time. It is a subject full of interest and importance; but, though it came within the scope of this work, it could not be put within the bounds of its space.

Author: Oscar Kennett LYLE BORN 1839 in St Louis, St Louis Co., MO died 29/1/1917
Published: Printed By, Lecouver Press Company, 51 Vesey Street, New York City.1912
Description:

The aim of this book is to preserve to posterity facts of interest pertaining to the Lyle family. That the book has errors is more than probable, since much of the information received in correspondence was variable in dates and in the spelling of proper names. For such errors as appear, the explanation lies in my “telling the tale as told to me.” It has taken years to gather what the book contains. But a few years of delay would have made almost impossible of discovery many of the facts that are presented. In successful effort, in obliging posterity, and in the appreciation of the existing family, lie my only reward. OSCAR K. LYLE. This history of the Lyle family treats of the ancestors and posterity of four immigrant pioneers from Ireland who became settlers in the Valley of Virginia between the years 1740 and 1750. Their homes in Ireland were near Larne, on the Irish coast, in the County of Antrim; in Virginia, on Timber Ridge, in what is now Rockbridge County. These four settlers of the colonial period were Matthew, John, Daniel and Samuel Lyle. The first three of mention were brothers and paternal uncles of Samuel, who was a son of a Robert Lyle. Samuel Lyle, who was a farmer in Ireland, married, about 1680, Janet Knox, of Knoxtown. The names of his parents have not been ascertained. Janet Knox was a daughter of John Knox, the second husband of Sally Locke. Her first husband was Ephraim Knox, of no kindred to her second. Sally Locke was a daughter of David Locke, whose wife was Mary Wylie, and granddaughter of William Wylie, whose wife was Janet Black. From Samuel Lyle came six children: Mary, Isabella, Janet, James, Robert and one that died young. James Lyle, son of Samuel Lyle of mention, married, about 1700, Margaret Snoddy, of Ballyrickard-beg, a daughter of William Snoddy, whose wife was Jane Adams, of Ballysnodd. The Snoddys were a family from Scotland to Ireland about 1652. James Lyle had seven children: Elizabeth, Jenny, Matthew, John, Robert, Daniel and William. The surname Lyle, varied in orthography, is a territorial one. In its earliest form the ancestors of those now bearing it were denominated “de Insula/’ which means “of the island.” So far back as the eleventh century this “de Insula” attached to families living in the Isle of Wight and Isle of Ely in England and the Isle of Bute in Scotland. That any connection existed between the several families is questionable.
