Annals and Stories of Colne and Neighbourhood (Classic Reprint)

Biyografiler ve Anılar

This is, I believe, the first published History of Colne, a town on which, considering its antiquity, it has always occurred to me that Whitaker and Baines might, with justice, have said more. Written for the working classes, to the vast majority of whom, if they ever see them, the ponderous History of Whalley and the somewhat costly Baines must be mere works of reference, I have felt it incumbent on me to employ homely language, and in other respects to endeavour to make this a readable book. The scheme of the work is this :I topens with a chapter seeking to show that Colne is a town of Roman origin. Chapters II. and III. deal with its mediajval and modern history, and contain a large amount of information, hitherto unpublished. Chapter IV. relates to the old church, a building on whose history antiquaries rightly love to linger. Chapter V. is devoted to the Colne incumbents, men who in their time have played an important part in local history. Myself a Churchman, I have not hesitated to point out the faults and frailties of some of them. Chapter VI. gives the history of some of our best-known buildings, and contains a short account of good Archbishop Tillotson, whose name is inseparably associated with our Grammar School. Chapter VII. contains the poetry of the neighbourhood. Poetry appeals to some minds with a force and power of which its more sober sister Prose is incapable.
