Excerpt from The Old English Country Squire In his previous books the writer has sketched the characters of the Old-time Parson and the Parish Clerk, and he has thought it well to complete the Trilogy by a study of the Squire, the central figure of rustic life in each age and generation. He trusts that the numerous readers who have shown their interest in his previous portraits of old-world characters, will deign to scan the pleasing features of this "fine old English gentleman," admire his noble qualities, and find some amusement in his humorous whimsicalities and eccentricities. The race of squires is fast disappearing. Everywhere estates are being broken up and sold to the highest bidder, and the squire is compelled to leave the old manor-house which has sheltered him and his ancestors for many generations. Hence this book appears opportunely, and we are only just in time to catch a glimpse of the venerable gentleman before the auctioneer's hammer falls, and the last load of his old time-worn furniture is carted away.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
