Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annals of a Border Club, 1899 In writing the Annals, it has been my earnest endeavour to avoid all subjects which might reasonably be calculated to give offence, or jar on the feelings of any of my readers. If, in spite of my care, I have been so unfortunate as to rouse the susceptibilities of any one, I must plead the diffi culty of the circumstances, and entreat for as lenient a judgment as is possible. It remains for me to thank all who have by their ready help done so much to lighten my task and make pleasant its execution. To the members of the Club I am indebted for much information in connexion with the pedigree of their respective families. I am under especial obligations to Miss Agnes Forrest, and to her brother, Aaron Forrest, of the firm of George Forrest Sons, Jedburgh. And I have had help, amongst others, from W. Stavert, m.a Rector of Burnsall in Craven; A. O. Curle, w.s., Edin burgh; Alexander Porter, Chief Constable of the County.
