RIGHT HONOURABLE

THE

EARL OF HADDINGTON.

MY LORD,

THIS Volume is respectfully addressed to Your LORDSHIP, as a Nobleman at once highly beloved and esteemed in your native country,-which, by the patronage and the enlightened practice of the most important of all arts, you have eminently contributed to adorn and to improve,—and which holds itself deeply indebted to the distinguished example of public spirit, and of private munificence, which your conduct daily affords.

I have the honour to be,

MY LORD,

YOUR LORDSHIP's most obedient,

And most humble Servant,

RO. FORSYTH.
