Excerpt from The Biographia Leodiensis: Or Biographical Sketches of the Worthies of Leeds and Neighbourhood, From the Norman Conquest to the Present Time A long preface is generally a waste both of time and paper, being scarcely ever read, especially by the young, for whom these Biographical Sketches are chiefly intended. Therefore, to plunge in medias res, it may be stated that the greater part of these Sketches, especially the earlier ones, were written out some years ago, during the time the compiler was an Assistant-Master at the Leeds Grammar School; certainly not with the intention of being printed, but solely for his own information and amusement. Having been absent from Leeds, more or less, for about seven or eight years, and having noticed during that time, in the local journals, obituary notices of some of the most eminent men of his native town; and on his return, about two years ago (in June, 1863), having also observed the great progress and improvement that had taken place, and was taking place, in Leeds and neighbourhood, not only as regards the population, the places of business, the streets, and public buildings but also as regards the moral, social, and religious condition of the people, he offered his Sketches of local Worthies, as they then were, or rather portions of them, to Mr. John Hamer, printer and publisher, who had succeeded Mr. Heaton, for insertion in the Leeds Herald (a Monthly Journal and Railway Time Table), which were at once accepted. After eight or nine contributions had appeared, the compiler found, on making a more extensive search, that his materials increased much faster than they were wanted, and that it would take a very long time to exhaust them at the rate of two or three pages a month. He therefore expressed a wish to have them, when re-written and enlarged, re-published in a separate form, and at as low a price as possible. Prospectuses were issued, and in a very short period upwards of 300 copies were subscribed for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
