The author takes this Opportunity of noticing a very unceremonious piece of plagiarism committed on a forrrrer publication of his, to which he respectfully re quests the present volume may not be subjected. In 1826, he published an octavo edition of Peak Scenery, to which was prefixed a series of graphic Road Sketches, an entirely new feature in such a work. These were copied into a Guide Book, published shortly afterwards by a Rev. Gentleman Of Matlock, who availed himself of them without either acknowledg ment or apology; a proceeding consonant neither with law nor good manners.
