http://www.archive.org/details/butecountydirect190910rot PREFACE TO 1909-10 EDITION.

WE have again diligently and carefully collected and arrranged useful information regarding Buteshire as it is to-day—with its officials, householders, and business people—and once more have pleasure in giv- ing the compilation the honours of the Press.

The previous four sections of the Directory are con- tinued, and to facilitate the search for information the different portions are again printed on distinctively coloured papers—a feature of acknowledged benefit for expeditious reference.

As our Advertising friends appreciate the distribu- tion of their announcements facing the text of the book, we hope, with continued prompt receipt of orders, to be enabled to make this decided benefit permanent.

Our desire is to overlook no interest, and therefore, we respectfully solicit notices of alterations or additions as early as possible, so that these may be given effect to.

This Directory is a much more important publication than many imagine. It is not only at hand for reference at all times throughout the county, but it is also ready for reference in the libraries of Glasgow, Edinburgh, London, Dublin, Cambridge, Oxford,

Our best thanks are again accorded to those who have in any way helped us in this compilation. It takes long and careful vigilance to ascertain and give effect to the continual changes, and prompt information and orders are, consequently, particularly acceptable and valuable.

'I HIS is the northern portion of the island of Bute. Port- Ban natyne, its principal -* village, is two and a-half miles from Rothesay, with which it is connected by tram- way. Karnes Castle, in the vicinity, is said to be the oldest inhabited castle in the country, and was the ancient seat of the Bannatynes. The village was named after that family—two brothers of whom (John and Gilbert)—received a charter from King Bobert the Bruce, for services rendered at Bannockburn. At the last census, there were 367 inhabited houses (1627 windowed rooms) and 192 uninhabited in the parish, and 373 separate families—793 males and 940 females—giving a total of 1733. The Port-Bannatyne ward (from Poiuthouse to the other end of the village and back to Gortans and Bannatyne Mains) contained 473 males and 627 females — 1100 in all; the North Bute ward, 125 males and 140 females; and the Cum- mermenoch ward, 195 males and 173 females. The total ten years ago was 1583, which shows an increase of 150 on the decimal period. Parliamentary constituency 1908-9, 369

BUTE COUNTY DIRECTORY ADVERTISEMENT.

The Bute County Directory is the only Publication of the kind printed and published in Buteshire. Its data is carefully compiled, and much time and attention is devoted each year to the careful investigation and noting the necessary alterations in the personnel of the occupants of public offices, the correct addresses of the general inhabitants, and the latest changes amongst those engaged in trade. The earliest publications connected with Rothe- say were Directories, and they are interesting reading even at this time of day. Our publication not only includes Rothesay, but embraces the whole County of Bute, and though it has increased in usefulness and circulation, its price and advertisement tariff have remained the same.

Typical Views of Scottish Scenery. A jew opinions of latest issue The British Empire Journalists, while visiting Scotland acknowledged, with thanks, receipt of copies. " Scottish Scenery is marvellously beautiful."—.Esperanto, Hornsby, N.S.W., May, 1909 .

" It is of great value to Esperantists, and should be widely taken up by them." Dundee Advertiser, 1st July, 1909. "... The views are exceptionally well brought out, are typical of Scotland's varied scenery, and each has a history as true, romantic and varied as the livelies t imagination. '"—Elgin Courant and Courier, 6th July, 1909. "... The book is not only an attractive one, but its pages form an introduction to the quaint language, one of whose objects is to hasten on the day " ' Kiam homaro tra la tuta mondo, farigos fratoj malgrau cio.' Glasgow Herald, 8th July, 1909. 142 THE BUTE COUNTY DIRECTORY.

This Directory now-a-days contains the information dis- tinctive of both the Directory and the Almanac of past years, and the date of its issue is gradually becoming mid- way between the original dates of issue of these two publications We begin our researches early enough, but the airy Summer publications must hustle out while the sun shines. The Directory, although very useful to the fluctuating visiting population, is not necessarily a fine- weather publication, but a hardy permanent resident.

Our aim, in this publication, is not to record the passing names and achievements of visitors and those who come to cater for them, but something of far greater importance—the registering of the names, standing and businesses of the resident population, for the information of all having an interest in Buteshire, its burghs and rural districts.

The Directory is, of course, not only for the remaining por- tion of the year in which it is issued, but continues the only printed reference book for the county of Bute until its successor appears.

One edition of the Directory is no sooner off than we begin to note alterations (and prepare for fjrobable additions) for the next—so that it may be thoroughly be up to date.

Will Secretaries of societies, etc., connected with Buteshire, who do not already do so, please remember to forward to us particulars of their institutions, annual reports, and lists of office-bearers, as information for the next issue of the Directory 1

We are not yet enabled to publish all the information that we desire, but that does not prevent us compiling (in antici- pation of greater reciprocity) more than we print.

This Directory is not only found all over Buteshire, but in the libraries and other places of public resort in "the adjacent islands of Great Britain and Ireland." HIGGIE & CO.
