5 EDITORIAL NOTE This volume gives half its space to nineteenth-century history. Many historians, geographers and economists are now working eagerly on the vast collections of documents which are available on the industrial and economic development of this "roaring century", and some are co-operating with archaeologists to salvage important information from the fast-disappearing sites, buildings and machinery belonging to early industrial projects and ventures. Several of our members, as well as members of our affiliated societies, might well help this work along by undertaking a local study which particularly attracts them. In December 1960 the Council appointed Dr. James Murphy as joint Honorary Editor of the TRANSACTIONS. The Council wishes to thank Mrs. J. H. M. Bankes, Mr. K. Charlton, Mr. A. Harris, Dr. W. G. Howson and Dr. J. Murphy for contributions towards the cost of illustrating their papers, and Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Bagley for preparing the index. It also acknowledges with thanks a substantial contribution made by the Council for British Archaeology towards the cost of printing Dr. Bu'Lock's paper on the early settlements at Meols. 12 August J. J. BAGLEY The University, JAMES MURPHY Liverpool. Honorary Editors. The Council wishes it to be known that authors alone are responsible for the opinions and statements in their several papers. Contributors to these TRANSACTIONS are advised to write to one of the Honorary Editors. Members who wish to read papers should write to the Honorary S?cretary.
