Stirling peerage

ADVERTISEMENT.
In order to account for the discrepant orthography
of the pseudo-clauTaant's name, as it appears in the
succeeding pages, I may mention, that in every part of
the volume, except the Crown productions, I have spelt
it Humph?-j/*, and not Humphrey*, at the express
request of Mr Lockhart, agent for Mr Humphrys.
Although the difference is immaterial, yet, for the sake
of typographical accuracy, as well as from courtesy to
Mr Lockhart, I think it right to notice it thus specially.
