Sources of Information. 



The following catalogue is a compilation of all the trustworthy 

 information on the flora of the county that I have been able to obtain. 

 I have rejected almost everything recorded upon what appears to me 

 insufficient authority; and, therefore, I have not considered it 

 necessary to distinguish here, except in special instances, between 

 what I have actually seen myself and what has been communicated 

 by others, or taken from herbaria and published records of a reliable 

 character. It is unnecessary to give a list of all the books consulted, 

 because the names of the principal contributors are given below.
