Excerpt from Stack North Country Sports and of Celebrated Athletes of the Northern Ring: To Which Is Added Notes on Bull and Badger Baiting Added The local newspaper files have materially aided our labours, in a variety Of ways. Besides supplying many passing incidents, we have found them, in some instances, exceedingly useful in the way Of verifying and correcting dates. A brief description Of Swiss Wrestling was promised, for the introductory chapter, by a native of that country resident in London. This promise yielded no fruit at the time, and it is a matter Of regret that it still remains unfulfilled. Of Wrestling in France, we have not been able to glean much information, although enquiries were set on foot through the columns Of Notes and Queries and Bell's Life in London. For much information contained in the articleon Wrestling in Scotland, we are indebted to Mr. Walter Scott Of Innerleithen and for a few other items we have to thank Mr. Robert Murray of Hawick.
