TRANSACTIONS OF THE HISTORIC SOCIETY

OF LANCASHIRE AND CHESHIRE

FOR THE YEAR 1968

VOLUME 120

LIVERPOOL PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY 1969 Made and Printed in Great Britain by C, Tinline, & Co. Ltd., Liverpool, London and Prescot. EDITORIAL NOTE

Good papers continue to be submitted by non-members as well as members, by those who have read them to the Society and those who have not. In this respect the present volume contains a fairly typical selection. Council tries to publish as many of these papers as possible, but it is somewhat inhibited by a number of factors. One is the tendency for the annual increase in printing costs to absorb the annual addition to revenue arising from growth in membership. Another, less depressing, factor is the need to provide, over the years, a reasonably balanced diet to cater for the varied tastes of a discriminating membership. Cheshire papers were once quite scarce, but there has been a welcome increase in the supply. However, there remains a dearth of acceptable papers dealing with topics before the sixteenth century. This hardly reflects consumer interest in the earlier periods of Lancashire and Cheshire history, and it is to be hoped that potential contributors will not be deterred from submitting papers by the preponderance of more modern papers in recent volumes. Council wishes to thank Mrs Mary Brigg and Dr lan Sellers for contributing towards the cost of this volume, also Mr R. Bromley for the volume index and for the ten year index. September 1969 K. B. DRAKE The University Honorary Editor Manchester
