    HATTIE FAMILY MEMOIRS HATTIE FAMILY MEMOIRS An Account of the Families Descended from Alexander Hattie, Emigre of 1786, with Sketches of the Family Pioneers and Related Material BY ROBERT McCONNELL HATTIE AND JOSEPH HOWE KIRK Printed by The Imperial Publishing Company, Limited, Halifax, N. S., Canada, for Private Circulation by the Authors. 1936 FOREWORD HE present history is only a fragment, but it is hoped it may serve as a nucleus around which to gather T information on which to build up the family archives. The writer would be glad to have material not incorporated in this record that any descendant of the pioneer Hatties may have to supply-material relating not only to the pioneers them­ selves, but to any descendants down to the most recently born babe. While it is not proposed to produce a revised history, the writer would be glad to be the repository of authoritative in­ formation that in some way may be made available to the folk coming after us. In the form in which this history appears it is as complete in details as the limitations of time and circumstances have per­ mitted. Even in its incompleteness it results from much corres­ pondence and many personal interviews, and, indeed, from much travel in the countryside from which the descendants in this generation are sprung. There are many gaps; for there have been several points at which it has not been possible to make contacts whereby information could be obtained. In spite of much effort to have every name and date and statement herein fully verified, there are still no doubt many errors.

Fourth Edition, Revised and Enlarged by MAJOR R. A. MARRIOTT, D.S.O. London : E. MARLBOROUGH & CO., 51, Old Bailey, E.C 1914. [all rights reserved.] — NOTE TO THIRD EDITION. It has been the fashion since the occupation of Egypt to speak slightingly of the colloquial form of Arabic in use there. This is partly because, as is the case in every country, the commoner forms of speech seem uncouth and unclassical to students who have learnt their Arabic either in universities, from viunshis in India, or from Syrians (who are frequently in Egypt the professed instructors). The basis of the common speech is, however, classical, though not directly recognisable as such. The fact that some of the words have not been encountered in the comparatively scanty literature of the Arabs, nor in the Koran, does not preclude them from being Arabic, though the forms of speech may not rank higher than such English forms as shan't, ain't, and Tve.
