Excerpt from The History of Ireland, Vol. 2: From the Treaty of Limerick to the Present Time; Being a Continuation of the History of the Abbe Macgeoghegan Mr Mitchel's Preface not having yet arrived from America, we shall be obliged to issue it with Vol. 2, or supply it afterwards separately. We have left out, at Mr Mitchel's request, an incorrect Index, which is published in other Editions. Mr Mitchel says in his letter to us I beg you to omit the Index at the end, which was prepared by some printer, and is a blemish to tile book. The table of contents and headings of chapters, prepared by myself, are the best and only Index. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
