Excerpt from Handbook for Travellers in Ireland: With Travelling Maps The present Edition of this Handbook, like the last, has undergone careful revision, based in great part on personal visits and research made by the Editor on the spot, in order to render it as trustworthy as possible. An obliging friend, learned in the Celtic dialects, has carefully revised the derivations and spellings of Irish names of places, greatly to the advantage of this Handbook. The Editor also has to otter his thanks to many friends and correspondents for the help kindly afforded him during the progress of the work'. He will feel obliged for any reliable corrections, alterations, or additions, and requests that they may be sent to him, to the care of the Publisher, 50, Albemarle Street, London. Travelling maps of the most interesting districts resorted to by travellers have been carefully compiled by Mr. Stanford on an enlarged scale; and it is hoped will be found complete and useful on the score of clearness and correctness.
