The present work is intended to serve as a contribution to Dorset Bibliography, and comprises a reference to those publications which have issued from the press upon the History and Topography of the County, on the Biography of its Natives, on the Social Life of its Inhabitants, and upon its Natural History. Every book or pamphlet mentioned, with hardly an exception, has been personally examined, and care has been taken to indicate the public library or private collection in which it may be found. It will be readily understood that this has been a matter of much patient labour, extending over a number of years. Public and Private Acts of Parliament relating to the county have been recorded, and it is hoped that this feature may render the work of service to professional men. Particulars of the Sale of Estates have been in many cases included, as these are often found -to contain valuable topographical information. The collection has been made so far as possible complete, and although the writer does not claim to have exhausted all the stores of this department of county litera- ture, yet he believes that few, if any, works of consequence have escaped his notice. He has not pretended to include works relating to the whole of England, and which would necessarily contain the county of Dorset, nor has he mentioned the articles occurring in magazines which have not been issued in a separate form. It must also be remembered that it has not fallen within the scope of the work to include any volumes of theolo- gical or general literature, and such have not been mentioned except in a few cases where they contained some valuable local or personal allusion, or appeared to be of some historical significance. The plan of the under- taking has been to give first of all the particulars of works relating to the county generally, classified under various heads, followed by those which vi Preface. relate to distinct parishes, arranged under their several names. On pages 271 to 279, and on page 291, are mentioned some works which were disco- vered too late to be placed in their proper position. The compilation of the list of Dorset Printers has been a work of great labour, entailing many- visits to the towns of Dorset, and inquiries in various directions. Still, in some cases, the dates given must be considered only as approximate. Those persons who may wish to avail themselves of the useful genealogical particulars contained in Private Acts of Parliament will find a collection of these, in thirty-nine volumes, in the Library of the Guildhall of the City of London. The writer returns his grateful thanks to those gentlemen who have assisted him in his undertaking, and whose names will be found subjoined. He will be glad at any time to receive notices of corrections and additions. It is his desire, at a future date, to prepare a companion to the present volume, to contain an account of the writings of natives and inhabitants of the county in the various paths of literature, and he will be happy to receive memoranda of their works, with biographical particulars of the authors. Fifty large-paper copies (demy quarto) of the present work, and three hundred small-paper copies (foolscap quarto), — and no more, — have been printed, and these may be obtained on application to the writer, until the issue is exhausted. Prices, respectively, twenty-six and thirteen shillings. Long Burton Vicarage, Sherborne. Jtily, 1885. P.S. — Some copies of "A Genealogical Account of the Mayo AND Elton Families," mentioned at page 123, price One Guinea each, may still be procured.

The first number of this paper was issued on 21st Feb. 1736-7. On Monday, 30th Jan. 1749, the title was changed to "The Western Flying- Post or Sherborne and Yeovil Mercury," on account of the proprietor, H. Bettinson, and Robert Goadby, proprietor of " The Western Flying Post or Yeovil Mercury," ^ having agreed to unite their papers. This issue is num- bered Vol. I. No. I. On 23rd Sept., 1765, it became "The Western Flying Post or Sherborne and Yeovil Mercury and General Advertiser." On 21st June, 1819, " The Western Flying Post Sherborne and Yeovil Mercury, and General Advertiser for Dorset Somerset Devon and Cornwall." This paper was always a single sheet of four pages, and was enlarged at intervals from demy folio until it reached to double that size on 12th March, 1810. Originally of three columns to a page, it contained four from 2nd Jan. 1764, five from 4th Feb. 1793, and six from 19th Feb. 1810. The price, at first 2d?., on nth July, 1757, became 2|(a?., when the stamp duty was increased to one penny; on 8th July, 1776, 3a?., in consequence of new duty; on 3rd Aug. 1789, ^^d., in consequence of an additional halfpenny stamp duty ; on 19th May, 1794, 4^., in consequence of paper being dearer ; on loth July, 1797, 6d., in consequence of stamp duty having risen to 3|^. ; on 29th May, 1809, 6|^. ; and on 4th Sept., 1815, ^d. (viz. Stamp Duty 4^5, paper and printing, 3^.); In 1838 the price was 4!^. In 1739 advertisements were taken at 2s. 6d. each ; and for the same jcharg€ in 1741, " if short, longer ones in proportion " ; in 1779, if not ex- ceeding twelve lines, Ss. 6d., at which date there was a sixpenny duty on each advertisement.

Goadby, at the Printing Office in Yeovil, Demy fol. pp. 4, may be seen at the Western Gazette Ofifice, Yeovil. Newspapers. 75 The original announcement of this paper (now at the " Western Gazette " Office, Yeovil), is as follows : — "Advertisement. Sherborne, Feb. 19, 1737. On Monday, the 21^'. of this Instant February will be Published (to be continued Weekly on Mondays) The Sherborne Mercury, or Weekly Advertiser : Containing the freshest Accounts of all Publick Transactions both at Home and Abroad ; Printed on a good Paper with new Types, Price 2d. As the Proprietors of this Paper have already settled a good Correspondence in London, in order to furnish the County with the best Intelligence, and purpose to use all other nieans to render this Work useful and entertaining ; they are per- suaded that the Clergy, Gentry, Farmers, &c., of these parts will find this Undertaking worthy their Encouragement, as it will render News cheaper and more general, open an easy Communication with the adjacent Towns and Villages, by means of the News-Carriers, and give a Commodious Opportunity of conveying to a Multiplicity of Readers all Publick Notices that shall be advertised therein. Note, Any honest industrious Men, that will engage in the constant carrying out this News-paper, may find good Encouragement, by applying to the Printers thereof, at the Printing Office in Long Street, Sherborne." In the issue for loth Dec, 17S3, it is mentioned that "this paper is cir- culated in Dorset, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, in which no other paper is circulated, besides part of Wiltshire." On 23rd Sept., 1765, "The Sher- borne Mercury (owing to increase in size) will be the largest paper in Great Britain or Ireland, and the Proprietor uses such expedition in circulating the paper that the Sherborne Mercury, with all the material news of the Saturday Evenings Papers in London, and that Nights Gazette, is circulated in all the populous towns leading to and in the City of Exeter above twelve hours before they can have the same news by mail from London, and beyond Exeter in the Towns leading to and in Plymouth near eighteen hours before the London Mail arrives, and in most of the principal Towns and Villages of Dorset, Somerset, Devon, Cornwall, and part of Wilts, before the post arrives." The Sherborne Mercury, in conjunction with the Salisbury Journal and a Winchester Paper, maintained relays of mounted messengers to convey the London Gazette, as soon as printed, from London to their respective offices ; and by this means its contents' were circulated by these papers in the South and West of England some considerable time before the ordinary mail with the Gazette arrived. A File of this paper, commencing ist January, 1739-40, Vol. III., No. 150, and ending Dec. 1826, is in the possession of E. Sloper, Esq., Taunton, and deposited in the Taunton Museum. One volume, containing four years (1760-63), is missing, besides some stray numbers in other volumes. There was also published weekly An Appendix to 'the Sherborne Mercury, commencing apparently on 6th January, 1772, and the Mercury 76 Bibliotheca Dorsetiensis. states on the 20th of that month, "It is with satisfaction we find our readers in general almost universally are pleased with a new plan we have formed for their entertainment, by our Appendix." On i6th Nov., 1772, the following note occurs, " It is delivered with our Mercury at the small additional expense of one halfpenny."

This paper was established in 1764 by William Cruttwell, in opposition to the Sherborne Mercury, then a Whig paper conducted by Robert Goadby, and was supported by the local influence of the Toogood family. The earliest copy in the office at Sherborne is the 20th number, thus, entitled, — " Cruttwell's Sherboi-ne Journal. Price Two- pence Halfpenny. Friday, April 12, 1765. Number 20. Vol. I." At the bottom of the first page is the following notice, — " Sherborne : Printed by W. Cruttwell, in the Market-Place : Of whom may be had all Sorts of Bibles, Common-Prayers, Sealing- Wax, Wafers, and all Sorts of Stationary Ware. Printing in general performed in -the neatest Manner, and on the shortest Notice. Advertisements for this Paper are taken in by M"'. Blythe, Bookseller, near the Royal Exchange, London ; M"'.

Letters (Post paid) to the Printer will have due Attention paid to them." A later number is entitled " The Sherborne Journal. Vol. IX. Thurs- day, July 8, 1773. N°. 449.", but no price is mentioned. At a subsequent date a further alteration appears, and it is then called " The Dorchester and Sherborne Journal, And Western Advertiser. [Vol. XXX. N°. 1603.] Friday, March 7, 1794. [Price Three-pence Halfpenny.] " It was "Printed by W. Cruttwell, Sherborne ; and Published in Dorchester early every Friday Morning." , The regular File at the Office (which however is not complete) begins on 1st January, 1813, and the paper is then called "The Dorchester and Sherborne Journal, and West of England Advertiser. Vol. 48. No. 2589. Friday, January i, 1813. [Price 6|d.] Printed by James Cruttwell in 78 Bibliotheca Dorsetiensis. Sherborne, and Published in Dorchester, Taunton, and most Places in the Neighbourhood every Thursday afternoon." On 22nd Nov., 1816, the word "Taunton " first appears in the title. On 1 7th Jan., 1 8 1 7 (and probably the 3rd, but the first two numbers are missing), the word "General" is inserted before "Advertiser", and the Title now runs "The Dorchester, Sherborne, and Taunton Journal, and West of England General Advertiser.
