While engaged on the essays, the author has cleaned the remonstrances of a few philosophers and friends. One of these thinkers (a rural dean) points out that human evidence is very untrustworthy, that he himself has been described as wearing the kilt, whereas he wears the trews; as editor of the Monk's Vade-Mecum, a paper which he never saw; as constant in his devotion to a large green umbrella, his umbrella, in fact, being blue, and so forth. \u003cbr\u003eThe writer has answered that these objections apply to all human evidence, and that several of the statements in this volume are not the chatter of personal paragraph-makers, but are, in some cases, attested on oath, in others, have survived strict cross-examination. \u003cbr\u003eAbout the Publisher \u003cbr\u003eForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
