PUBLISHERS' NOTE THIS tenth volume of a Re-issue of the DICTIONARY OF NATIONAL BIOGRAPHY comprises the twenty-eighth, twentyninth and thirtieth volumes of the original edition, viz., Volume XXVIII (Howard-Inglethorp) published in October 1891; Volume XXIX (Inglis-John) published in January 1892; Volume XXX (Johnes-Kenneth) published in April 1892. Errors have as far as possible been corrected, and some of the bibliographies have been revised, but otherwise the text remains unaltered. Three supplementary volumes, published in the autumn. of 1901, and now forming the XXIInd and last volume of this Re-issue, supply (with a few accidental omissions) memoirs of persons who died while the original volumes were in course of quarterly publication. The death of Queen Victoria (22nd January 1901) forms the limit of the undertaking. THE INDEX AND EPITOME of the DICTIONARY, which is published in a separate volume, gives, with full cross-references, an alphabetical list of all memoirs in both the DICTIONARY (1885–1900) and the SUPPLEMENT to the DICTIONARY (1901). |
