Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of the Town of Belfast From the Earliest Times to the Close of the Eighteenth Century: With Maps and Illustrations
I am conscious of the great defects of my labours, of wants not in my power to fill up, possibly of many errors, and of having been forced for want of space to pass too lightly over important subjects. It was impossible for me to extend the history into the present century, except in a few instances as continuations or completions of articles begun in the previous one. But the history of Belfast from the beginning of the nineteenth century to this time would probably be more acceptable to the present inhabitants than the older subjects to which I was led by inclination, by the want of know.
