Local History Vol. 6
Thomas Brandon Brett (1816-1906)
The contents of these volumes being placed on one side of the paper only, will, it is presumed, make it unnecessary for the reader to be frequently shifting his seat. But the real purpose of such arrangement is that, if at any time, the Hastings Corporation deem it desirable to publish the work or any portion of it, the leaves can be taken out as being ready for the printer in their present form.
This History commences with a chapter on St. Leonards, followed by one on Hastings, and continued with one on each town alternately; and for greater convenience of reference one chapter is devoted to each year. There are, however, a few cases arising from necessity or convenience of association, in which a topic applying to one town more than the other, is treated of in reverse order.
