Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Anglo-Saxon Weapon Names Treated Archaeologically and Etymologically
The compiler also avails herself of this opportunity to express her thanks and feeling of profound indebtedness to Professor Johannes H00ps, of the University of Heidel berg, for his ever ready suggestion and aid in the plan ning and execution of the work.-owing to the necessity of having all proof-sheets sent from Heidelberg to America for correction, and as a result of having to read the first sheets while travelling from place to place, some even being lost in forwarding, the difficulties of proof-correction for the present volume have been well-nigh insurmountable. To this fact, then, is due the appended list of corrections, and the mistakes still remaining may also be attributed to the same cause, as well as to the failure to receive all of the final proof-sheets.
