Excerpt from John GaltIn writing this little book I have received help from many sources. Through the kindness of Professor W. J. Alexander I was enabled to spend a year in Toronto and avail myself of the libraries there. I am indebted to Dr. Alexander Fraser for allowing me to examine a box of Galt's papers in the Ontario Archives, to Mrs. Helmer, of Toronto, for help of various kinds in matter relating to her grandfather's family, to Mr. Justice Gait, of Winnipeg, for the loan of letters, to George Gait, Esq., of Winnipeg, for the loan of books, to Professor A. H. Young, of Trinity College, for many valuable hints, to William Smith, Esq., for helpful guidance among the Archives at Ottawa, to Professor O. D. Skelton, of Queen's University, for lending me the Ms. of part of his book on Sir Alexander Gait, and to R. M. Hogg, Esq., of Irvine, and Herbert Henderson, Esq., of Greenock, for their trouble in clearing up many points.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
