Excerpt from South London The Bastard of Falconbridge bombards the city: Sir John Fastolfe's man is pressed into Jack Cades army: the Minters make their last Sanctuary opposite St. Georges: the Debtors languish in the King's Bench. There are many pictures in the box - but how many more there are for which no room could be found! I must acknowledge my obligations, first, to the Editor of the Pall Mall Magazine where half of these chapters first had the honour of appearing, for the wealth of illustration of which he thought them worthy: and next to the artist, Mr. Percy Wadham, who has so faithfully and so cunningly carried out the task committed to him.

Excerpt from Alice and a Family: A Story of South London Mr. Carlow, a little, lean man, came across the playground to where 'Erbie Nudds was leaping over another boy's back. "I want to speak to you for a moment, Herbert," he said, touching 'Erbie on the shoulder. He was the only person in South London who called 'Erbie, Herbert: the other teachers called him "Nudds," the pupils called him "'Erbie," and his parents, more often than not, called him "'Ere, you!" In moments of affection or pride Mrs. Nudds would say "Bert," and Mr. Nudds, "Young 'un!" It was only Mr. Car low who gave him the full, round-sounding name, a fact which seemed to 'Erbie to denote that the master, for some reason or other, always looked upon him with a certain amount of disapproval. "Yessir!" he replied anxiously, turning away from the game of leap-frog. Mr. Car low smiled at him pleasantly. "It's all right, Herbert," he said. "You haven't done anything wrong.

Excerpt from The South London: Entomological and Natural History Society It will be remembered that, owing to the disposal of the premises in which the Society had its offices, we were again compelled to seek a new abode. The change has been one for the better. The new position chosen by your Council we feel sure has done much to improve the standing of the Society, the accommodation and comfort afforded being a vast improvement on our former quarters. The - position of the rooms is all that can be desired, and although the change was inconvenient at the time, we may safely conclude that no one has regretted it. This year we observe with pleasure the development of a spirit of unreserve in the imparting of personal knowledge, as evidenced by the number of papers, communications, etc., that we have had the pleasure Of listening to.

Excerpt from Across the Bridges or Life by the South London River-Side Few, if any, who begin this book will wish to put it down. There is no interest like the interest of human life, and of that the book is full. It is human life in a form remote from the experience of most readers, yet near to them both locally and by moral claim. Its features are seen at first hand by an observer with a quick eye, a steady judgment, and more than a grain of humour. It is sketched with a ready pen, in terse English, with touches of finish in detail, and of colour in lively illustration. Here is the material out of which romances of street and slum life might be made, but it is served up to us without the flavourings and combinations which romances need, but which spoil them as documents of life. I am allowed, as they say in the theatres, to 'present' this piece and to introduce the author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The South London, Entomological Natural History Society: Officers Council, 1910-11 The Council of the South London Entomological and Natural History Society, in presenting their Thirty-eighth Annual Report, is pleased to state that the affairs of the Society continue in a very satisfactory condition. During the year just passed thirteen new Members have been elected, while only six names have been deleted from the list, of which five were by resignation and one by death. The last was that of Mr. J. Tolhurst, who had been a member since 1895. The Membership, therefore, now stands as follows:2 Honorary, 6 Life, Country, and 134 Ordinary Members, making a total of 175. The Meetings have been well attended throughout the year, and the Recorder, Mr, A. W.Dennis, reports that there has been an average attendance of thirty-three at the twenty-three meetings. At the Annual Special Exhibition Meeting in November last upwards of ninety Members and friends were present, a number never reached before. Of these no less than forty brought exhibits. As in previous years, the Society is much indebted to Mr. F. Noad Clark for his skilful working of the lantern, which has been used even more than in previous years.

Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 4: Third Series, Religious Influences; Inner South London IN reviewing London north of the Thames the plan adopted has been to work from East to West on an outer and again on an inner line, ending first at Hampstead and then on the river bank at Fulham. Dealing with South London I propose to reverse this order by beginning with Southwark and the Central South, and proceeding on an outer line from West to East back to the river at Greenwich; and so by working round the central parts I hope to perfect a lens of observation which shall gradually bring all into one focus.

Excerpt from Proceedings of the South London Entomological Natural History Society: 1913-14, With Nine Plates The Balance Sheet, duly audited, is printed on pages xvi., xv11. The Meetings have been well attended, and the Recorder, Mr. A. W. Dennis, reports that there has been an average attendance of over 39 at each of the 23 meetings. At the meeting on April 24th, there was a Special Exhibition of Orders other than Lepidoptera; this, a new experiment, was, both from the number present, and the very interesting objects exhibited, a great success, and will be repeated again next year. At the Annual Special Exhibition of Varieties held in November, 99 members and friends attended and although the numbers were not so numerous as on the two previous occasions, yet the exhibits, which were as usual, chiefly Lepidoptera, showed a high standard of excellence from a varietal point of view.
