Book excerpt: Excerpt from About Yorkshire The people are most interesting; they are almost always kind and genial, full Of a quaint racy humour, and, Spite Of their proverbial thrift, hospitable to strangers. The dialect differs in the three Ridings; it is not easy to understand, but even when unintelligible there is in it a quaint mellowness Of sound in perfect keeping with the comfortable well-kept cottages, nestling two and three together under a tree, or with the large gray farm steads, surrounded by golden ricks, of which we got glimpses in our journeys through the broad dales that are such distinctive features Of the county.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book About Yorkshire We know little of the folk who were living in York shire when the Romans came northward. They lived chiefly on the hills and moors and on the edge of the Wolds, and the new-comers gave them a common name, Brigantes, dwellers on high places. Recent investigation would seem to show that there were two distinct races then inhabiting the county, but all accurate record of them is lost, and whatever greatness they had eclipsed.

This book was released on 2017-07-16 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories and Sketches Relating to Yorkshire There is only a transient, hectic flush in the enjoyment of unrighteous pleasure; for this soon kills the true life of man. You may think, reader, as many others have imagined, that much of the penalty which men in voluntarily pay for the indulgence of unlicensed desire is the result of conventional theory or education, mov ing the soul, as it were, out of a perfect animal condi tion. Truly, if we may credit the old Saxon chronicles, those early barons did live like tangible wolves or other natural brute beasts; but that all this tended to indi vidual well-being or to national prosperity, we must emphatically deny.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Yorkshire: Second Series There is an apology due to the subscribers for the delay which has clogged the passage of the book through the press. That delay arose, in a limited sense, by the Change from the old lines, and the transfer of the venture to other hands. But it was further increased and maintained beyond all proportion, and until out of control, by the political crisis which consumed the closing months of the present year. AS a contribution to the history of his time, the Editor records his belief that such a crisis will not readily recur being, however, forewarned, he will now take care that, in the event Of its recurrence, it shall not produce a similar effect upon the appearance of any subsequent volume of this Series.

Download or read book The Ruined Abbeys of Yorkshire Classic Reprint written by William Chambers Lefroy and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruined Abbeys of Yorkshire In revising these sheets for a second edition I have been, once more, largely indebted to the kindness of antiquarian friends. In particular I have been allowed to anticipate in some points a forthcoming work on Fountains Abbey by Mr. Micklethwaite and Mr. W. S. John Hope. Within the last seven years much fresh light has been thrown on monastic antiquities by minute examination and patient inquiry, and the impossibility of dealing exhaustively with even a section of this subject in anything short of a large and technical work has become proportionately evident.

Book The Registers of Huggate

Download or read book The Registers of Huggate written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Registers of Huggate: Yorkshire The Registers of Huggate commence in the year 1539 and, to the year 1812, are contained in five volumes. Volumes I and II have been bound together of recent years, and measure 14 ins. long by 9 ins. wide. The leaves are of parchment. Volume I contains Baptisms, 1539 to 1627, and Marriages and Burials, 1539 to 1626. The manner of making the entries in this volume has been to divide the page into two columns, and to keep each class of entry, whether Baptism, Burial, or Marriage, in its own column throughout. The transcription and printing have followed the Register page by page, thus avoiding the possibility of any omission, which might otherwise have occurred if each class of entry had been taken separately. Volume II begins in 1708 and ends in 1787 for the Baptisms and Burials, and in 1751 for the Marriages. There is thus a break of some eighty-two years between the two volumes, probably an entire Register being lost. That this loss is not of recent date is proved by the Return made to Parliament in 1831, where, on page 379, it is stated that "No Register, 1625 to 1708, can be found." Volume III is of paper, and measures 15 ins. long by 9 ins. wide, and consists of thirty-five used pages, the remainder being blank, and contains Banns and Marriages only, from 1755 to 1812, in the usual printed form. Volume IV measures 17 ins. long by 12 ins. wide, and contains only seven pages that are used for entries, four at the beginning. Baptisms, 1789 to 1798, and three at the end. Burials, 1788 to 1798.

Download or read book The East Riding of Yorkshire Classic Reprint written by Joseph E. Morris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The East Riding of Yorkshire The book is the result of a very careful survey, made, expressly for the purpose of writing these pages, during the Long Vacation of 1903. Notes were then taken on the spot; and, although I cannot hope to have escaped from some inac curacies, and although changes, in some instances, may since have taken place, yet it is hoped that this little volume may form a fairly reliable record of the East Riding churches as they appeared in the summer in question.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cistercians in Yorkshire I have no intention of disarming criticism when I say that in the following pages there is no ofiering either of scholarship or of the results of original research. What is here attempted is to give a plain account, for the benefit of the average reader, of the rise of the Cistercian Order, and of its establishment in Yorkshire; of the fortunes of the eight Yorkshire houses in poverty and in power; of the causes and events which led to their suppression; and of their actual fate in 1535 - 1540.
