Excerpt from Annals of Shrewsbury School R. Fisher, at the time of his death last November, had completed the writing of the Annals, and had revised the proofs except that of the last chapter and the Appendices. My task in seeing the work through the press has not been difficult. I have completed the revision Of the proofs, supervised the making of the Index, and have arranged for the illustrations, of which Mr. Fisher had only selected about a dozen. In this part of my work I have particularly to thank Mr. A. F. Chance, Mr. W. D. Haydon (who has taken many of the photographs specially), and Mr. E. Tudor Owen, who have all been most helpful. My best thanks are also due to the Rev. C. J. S. Churchill, for the portrait Of Mr. T. A. Bentley; to Mr. Samuel Butler, for the view of the old school in 1833, reproduced from his se and Letters of Bz'sfiop Butler; to Messrs. Adnitt and N aunton, for permission to reproduce the view of the castle and school in 1658, facing page 173; and to Dr. Calvert, for the view facing page 392. To Dr. Kennedy's note on Lz'bem Seize/a, in the Appendix, page 463, I have added, at the suggestion of Mr. T. E. Pickering, the differing view held by Mr. A. F. Leach, our latest authority on such matters, though it does not seem to me altogether convincing. Every one into whose hands the book may come, whether Old Salopians or others, must regret that Mr. Fisher did not live to see the full completion Of a work on which he spent SO much loving labour, and in which, I think every one will admit, he has achieved very considerable success. I have only to add that I shall be grateful for any additions or corrections, which shall be carefully considered when a new edition is required.
