Book Description
Excerpt from North Country Diaries: Second Series Of the diaries and similar documents printed in this volume some are already known to the student of local history. The Journal of Sir William Brereton, which is perhaps the most valuable of the series, formed the first volume of the Chetham Society's publications and was reprinted in Richardson's Imprints and Reprints of Rare Tracts in 1844. But as both of these editions have become rare, the Journal may very fitly find a place in the present series, the more so as Sir Philip II. B. Grey-Egerton, the present owner of the MS., has permitted a fresh transcript to be made for the Surtees Society. The fate of the original diary of Mark Browell is unknown, but. it was copied for the same series of Richardson's Reprints. The family records of Mark Akenside were contributed by Mr. Richard Welford, M.A., to that valuable but. short-lived repository of local information, Northern Notes and Queries. Of Warburton's letters a few copies have been struck off by the Bishop of Durham for private circulation; and large extracts from John Dawson's Diary may be found in the Proceedings of the Newcastle Society of Antiquaries. So far as is known, the other documents are now printed for the first time. Although Sir William Brereton's description of Edinburgh ill 1GG5 is not flattering, he displays both candour and discernment. He seems to have been especially interested in salt works and in decoys for duck. Jacob Bee's Chronicle comprises those parts of the original MS. which are not. given in his diary printed in Six North Country Diaries. It deals for the most part with humble and unimportant people, but it may interest the inhabitants of the city and neighbourhood of Durham, as will Bishop Warburlou's caustic letters. The Journal of Bishop Pocoeke will appeal to a wider circle, containing, as it does several otherwise unrecorded Roman Inscriptions; while the diary of John Dawson, kept during a time when he was an active and conscientious militia officer, may amuse those interested in military affairs.
