PREFACE The object of this work is to give an idea of themanners, customs, and curious particulars of ourforefathers, which to most persons are the mostinteresting part of our history. To obtain anything like a correct idea thereof, it is necessaryto consult not only history, but also laws, poems,and biographies. For this few have opportunityor inclination. In this work I have endeavouredto supply what I have frequently found to be adesideratum; and I believe it contains a con-nected narrative of events not to be found in anyother volume. I have made no statement with-out the most patient research. J. B. CONTENTS. PAGE CHAPTER I. Mannemannerscustomsof00broo
