Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from The Hawick Tradition of 1514: The Town's Common, Flag, and Seal, An Enquiry Into Some of the More Interesting and Peculiar Features of Old Hawick HistoryIN the present work the writers have endeavoured to place before the reader the result of an independent enquiry into the facts bearing on the time-hallowed tradition of 1514, and also on the possession of the Town's Common, and the ancient ceremony of the Riding of its Meiths and Marches. If these pages and illustrations help in any way to strengthen the ties which bind its many sons and daughters to the ancient Border town, the writers will have had sufficient re compense for their labour.They are deeply indebted to the artists, Mr Tom Scott, Mr John Wallace, and Mr James P. Alison, who have aided so much, and so ably, in the production. Mr Alison has spared no trouble in the preparation of the Plan of the Common - the work involving several perambulations of the old boundary, and minute checking of old plans.The writers have to thank the Town Council for permission to make use of the Burgh Records.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
