6 INTRODUCTION the present supplement has two aims: to record printed sources of information about Bedfordshire published between 1 January 1961 and 31 December 1965, and to add items omitted from the original work through ignorance or inadvertence, and brought to my notice since its publication. A number of these were mentioned in a helpful review of the Bibliography by Dr. J. F. A. Mason, Librarian of Christ Church, , in Notes and Queries 208:389-91, 1963. At the same time his remarks prompted me to examine the Bodleian catalogue, where I found the titles of a few local works previously unknown to me, and of at least two included in 1962 on the doubtful strength of hearsay. Of even greater help was a privileged loan of Mr. T. W. Bagshawe’s card-index of books mostly presented to Luton Museum. These are for the most part works of a comprehensive char­ acter, or dealing with neighbouring shires but containing significant Bedfordshire information. To Mr. Bagshawe, therefore, I am much indebted. Some who gave assistance during the preparation of the original work have since died, including, to our great sorrow, those pillars of the B.H.R.S., its Hon. Secretary, Mr. C. E. Freeman, and its Hon. Treasurer, Mr. F. J. Manning. Without the inspiration and efforts of these two the Biblio­ graphy could not have been published. Others who have continued their support are the County Archivist and her staff, the Librarians and their reference room assistants, Mr. J. F. Dyer (Editor of the Bedfordshire Magazine), Mr. G. D. Gilmore, Mr. H. Newman (still increasing his collection), Mr. H. G. Tibbutt and Mr. Geoffrey Webb. Much appreciated has been the opportunity of incor­ porating Mr. H. Prudden’s local geological card-index, neglected earlier through an oversight. New ‘credits’ go to Mr. W. K. A. Child (Bedford Public Library), Mr. Simon Houfe, Miss Mar- ghanita Laski (for directing me to an important item on ), Mr. Richard Marks, Mr.J. Lawson Petingale, Mr. N. Douglas Simpson, Mr. E. J. Smith (Luton News), Mr. C. H. Talbot (Wellcome Historical Medical Library) and Mr. A. G. Underwood. The Bodleian and the public libraries at and Hastings are cordially thanked for their replies to queries. Research in back volumes of periodicals has been continued, but not exhaustively. Indeed, the results are hardly worth the effort, except in one instance. This has been the scrutiny of the indexes of over two hundred half-yearly volumes of Notes and Queries (all of which up to 1927, except part of 1922, are in Bedford Public Library). Well over one hundred items of local significance have come to light. Some admittedly are trivial, but many possess an historical interest which puts their compilation into line with the list of Bedfordshire references in the Gentleman s Magazine, made by J. G. Raynes (BNQ 1:128-42, 1886). Thanks once more to Mr T. W. Bagshawe, the use of W. Bonser’s A bibliography of folklore (1961) has rendered unnecessary a laborious search in the periodical Folklore and its antecedents (1878 ff.), and some relevant material has been disinterred. All the major indexes of periodicals (Poole, etc.) have been scanned, but there still remain for the unsatiated bibliographical aspirant the huge (unindexed!) volumes of the Field (from 1853), the Builder (from 1834), and the agricultural journals of the last century, when the Russell estate was so prominent, e.g. The Farmer’s Magazine, Edinburgh, 1800-25, becoming The British Farmer’s Magazine, 1826/27 - 53, the Quarterly Journal of Agriculture, Edinburgh, 1828-43, and its successors, The Journal of Agriculture, 1843-68, and The County Gentleman’s Magazine, 1868-82. Possibly still more Bedfordshire material of value may be found in these, particularly in the Field. In some of the notes in the previous biographical division the author ventured ‘to flesh the skeleton [of a reference book] with some pleasant passages’. This did not meet with disapproval, but here only occasionally do entries lend themselves to lightness. The ‘Additional Corrigenda’ page sent to subscribers and inserted in unsold copies of the biblio­ graphy is repeated here with a few extras, as is most of the table of Abbreviations. An index of subjects, the absence of which was deplored by some reviewers, has not been considered necessary in a supplement, the arrangement being quite straightforward. The three Divisions, the twenty- five Sections, and the required Subsections only are retained. Further narrowing down is effected by printing here the number of the page in the original work, when fresh entries are introduced. It has not been found possible to make changes in the record of the location of the printed material, so many acquisitions having been made by the libraries in five years. One of these, however, purchased by the County Library, ought to be singled out. This is the photolithographed edition of the scarce Modern English biography, by Frederic Boase, with its supplements (see B.Bibl., p.219). 7 Incidentally, most of the ‘BMS’ copies of local works have migrated to the Bedford Museum which incorporates the B.M.S. Museum collections. Thanks to its spacious new building Luton Public Library has perhaps made the largest addition to Bedfordshire material. Considerable time has been spent in examining its well-catalogued and -filed holdings, with the result that the nature and location of works listed here show a marked emphasis on the south of the county. This is natural too in the light of the advancing importance of the new county , whose Library Committee, like that of Bedford, has been so generous in its support of this bibliography. The enforcement of a deadline at 31 December 1965 forbids the inclusion in the body of the work of several interesting 1966 publications: the guide to the Russell Estate Collections in the B.R.O., etc., a B.H.R.S. volume of more selected wills, Bunyan’s standing today (Moot Hall Leaflet), and commemorative books on Bedford (Charter Year) and (70 years as U.D.C.). Just within our period came the pamphlet English Local History Handlist (Hist. Assoc., 1965), by Mr F. W. Kuhlicke, Director of Bedford Museum, and Mr F. G. Emmison, the County Archivist. In the form of a bibliography of over 1,600 entries this provides a student’s approach to local history in general and a guide to background reading for the specialist. L.R.C. Bedford.
