Excerpt from The History and Antiquities of Tallaght in the County of Dublin Ll J HE want of local history has often been complained of, and few writers care to describe what is pass ing around them yet, in after years, how interesting do such records become! Old houses go to decay and their inhabitants die out in a comparatively short space of time no memory of either remains; and if any inquiry becomes necessary, there is great difficulty in finding out anything about them. Within the last two hundred years, what changes have taken place in the topography of our County of Dublin: new roads, new boundaries, buildings, and plantations, have in many places altered the face of the country. Woods which covered large tracts have dis appeared; wastes and marshes have been reclaimed and drained; hills formerly cultivated have again become covered with heath and furze, whilst others have been cleared and enclosed. How valuable would a History of the County of Dublin, such as d'alton's, written two hundred years ago, be in the present day. D'alton's is perhaps the only local History we have; and although it contains inaccuracies, still it is a most valuable record.

Excerpt from Wakeman's Handbook of Irish Antiquities It has been too much the custom in the past to look upon Ireland as being especially favoured with a wealth of antiquities, Pagan and Christian, more or less indigenous to the soil, and independent of the successive waves of influences sweeping from the _mediterranean littoral, and from Central Europe, ever westward and northward. Light can be thrown on problems still unsolved only by following the more scientific method of inquiry pursued, and by applying to them the knowledge gained in the wider field of European research.

Excerpt from A Hand-Book of Irish Antiquities, Pagan and Christian: Especially of Such as Are Easy Access From the Irish Metropolis Not a few of the subjects upon which it is my province now to treat have, especially of late years, excited considerable attention not only in Ireland, but even in countries beyond the limits of the British Empire. Much has been already done, yet much remains to be accomplished. It is not sufficient to have shown that Ireland contains an unbroken series of monuments, many of them historical, which lead us back, step by step, to a period long anterior to the conversion of her people to Christianity, - to have formed museums, - to have translated annals and manuscripts relating to her history and antiquities a feeling should be awakened in the breasts of the people generally to preserve with scrupulous care the numerous remains of early Irish art 'with which the country everywhere abounds, and which frequently, in local history, form our only records. The anxiety which the various governments of Europe, even the most despotic, evince for the preservation and con servation of their antiquities shows how widely their importance is recognized. It is even so, especially of late years, in America. In the following pages I do not promise my readers any very wonderful discoveries, any startling facts.
