PREFACE.
In issuing the Glasgow Post-OflSce Directory for 1905-190&, the Publishers beg to
express their thanks for the liberal patronage bestowed on the work during the long
period of Seventy-Seven years, and desire to state that as formerly no effort has been
spared to render it as accurate and complete as possible. They, however, do not
hold themselves responsible for any error or omission.
A Map of the Environs of Glasgow will be found at the beginning of the
book. The Almanac, Tide Tables, Banks, &c., Statistics of the Population of
the City and Suburbs, the Parliamentary and Municipal Voters for 1902-1903,
with the Parliamentary Divisions of the City and Members of Parliament, also
the Voters on Electoral Roll for School Board, and the Eental of Glasgow for 1903,
with a description of the revised Municipal Wards, will be found in their former
positions. To these have been added a list of the Conveners and Secretaries of the
various Ward Committees. In the Streets Directory (pages 763 to 1080) the number
affixed to the name of each street indicates the Municipal Ward in which such street
is situated for electoral purposes. The numbers have been corrected in accordance
with the new arrangement of the city wards. At pages 1 to 31 an Alphabetical List
of Streets is given ; as a handy guide to their situation the capital and small letters
prefixed to each Street indicate its position on the Map, and the number affixed its
registration district. The large Map, revised and brought up to date by Messrs. J.
Bartholomew & Co., Edinburgh, is placed at the end of the Directory.
The various Suburban Districts around the City are given, as formerly, revised
and corrected. The Burghs of Govan, Kinning Park, and Partick are incorporated
with the General Directory.
In the Appendix will be found useful details regarding various Institutions
and Public Offices in the City and Suburbs.
The printing has been done by Messrs. Aird & Coghill, 24 Douglas Street,
and the binding by Messrs. Gowans & Gray, Ltd, 58 Cadogan Street.
All communications on Directory business should be addressed to the Editor,
Post Office Directory, Glasgow.
Post Offiob, Glasgow, May, 1905.
