In issuing The Forfar Directory for 1887, the Publisher begs to thank all those who have supplied information for it, and also

Advertisers for their liberal patronage. He has used every endeavour to make it complete, accurate, and useful as a book of reference on matters connected with the Town, and hopes that it will be as favourably received as those of previous years—the success of which has been very gratifying.
