His particular interest was for mineralogy, but he also had interests in botany, which lead him to create a sizeable herbarium con- taining many interesting plants. Most of these have been collected in the field, but there are also specimens from early plant nurseries and important gardens in Europe. The notes on the herbarium sheets are also ex- ceptionally detailed. Adjacent to many species, the medicinal properties and domestic uses have been de- scribed.

Uaunton BARNICOTT &- PEARCE, ATHEN^UM PRESS 1907 BARNICOTT AND PEARCE PRINTERS Preface. T is usual to write something as a preface, and this generally appears to be to make some excuse for having written at all. In a pre- face to Tom Toole and his Friends — a very interesting book published a few years ago, by Mrs. Henry Sandford, in which the poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, together with the Wedgwoods and many other eminent men of that day figure,—the author says, on one occasion, when surrounded by old letters, note books, etc., an old and faithful servant remon- " " strated with her thus : And what for ? she " demanded very emphatically. There's many a hundred dozen books already as nobody ever reads." Her hook certainly justified her efforts, and needed no excuse. But what shall I say of this } What for do 1 launch this little book, which only refers to the parish ot Mylor ^ vi Preface. The great majority of us are convinced that the county of our birth is the best part of Eng- land, and if we are folk country-born, that our parish is the most favoured spot in it. With something of this idea prompting me, I have en- deavoured to look up all available information and documents, and elaborate such by personal recollections and by reference to authorities.

  • JULY 2013 EDITORIAL I Must Admit That I Had a Job Stealing Myself from the Sunshine to Write This
    YOUR SUMMER Camelfordian JULY 2013 EDITORIAL I must admit that I had a job stealing myself from the sunshine to write this. I have been trying to grow my own fruit and vege- tables and have found it to be a little more complicated than “shove it in the ground and wait!” My dog has found a cool place to lie in my first ever attempt to grow strawberries and there are only four gooseberries on my prize bush. I shall look forward to harvesting my pea and broad bean in the very near future. I do seem to be very successful at perpetual spinach and lettuce but have managed to kill the mint. I find the biggest pleasure to be lying back with a gin and tonic after I have worked up a sweat and shall continue with this long after I have given up self sufficiency. Don’t forget that there is no in August so you must make this one last! WEBSITE UPDATE We launched the Camelfordian website for the announcement to appear in our June edition. It arrived a little before its time, but has been updated and hopefully improved. You can now click on the thumbnails to bring up copies of the Camel- fordian. Other hyperlinks should now work properly and there is music to accompa- ny some of the pages. It has been checked in Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome. However, if you find any problems, any issues with the Website, please let us know. Letter to the editor Dear Editor I would like, through your publication, to express my congratulations to the organisers of the “Street Party” staged on Sunday, 2nd June in Camelford.
