    To HECTOR FORBES OF CULLODEN this work is (by kind permission) gratefully dedicated. To my Sister, MYRA K. G.

VOL. V. FEBRUARY 1746 TO DECEMBER 1747. 499482 INVERNESS : ROBERT CAHRUTHERS & SONS, 1930. PREFACE. With the issue of this volume the Editor's task is ended, except for the somewhat remote possibility that "Still More Culloden Papers" may some day emerge from a more detailed arrangement of the residue and from other documents found, while this work was in progress.

Mr B. in- tends to consult an eminent literary character of this place and to request him to make a fit selection for publication under the title of "Scotch Papers." Being informed as to the nature of the contract between you and Messrs Cadell and Davies, we did not offer any observa- tions on the scheme developed by Mr Blackwood which has for a separate object to give the public several documents received from you, but which Messrs G.
