Excerpt from History of Belfast To the researches of Pinkerton and Benn years ago, we are indebted for a good deal of our knowledge of the early history of the town; and, in the present generation, Mr. R. M. Young, Mr. F. J Bigger and others have laboured in the same field, Mr. Young's Old Town Book and Historical Notices of Old Belfast and its Vicinity being most valuable contributions. Since Benn's useful History of Belfast of 1877 there has not, so far as I know, been any endeavour made to write a complete history of the city, and, in submitting this volume, I am fully alive to the fact that a good deal more might have been said on many points. The material available, especially for the past hundred years, is extensive, but volumes would be required to deal exhaustively with it, and, even if written, it is doubtful whether a lengthy work would be so acceptable as a concise narrative. For information and assistance kindly given, I desire to express my thanks to Mr. R. M. Young, m.a., Mr. Henry Riddell, m.e., Mr. H. M. Pollock, D.L.
