Vlll DEDICATION. 



scale from seeds, the process of transplanting may be 

 employed to diffuse it with speedy maturity and undi- 

 minished excellence, as occasion may require, over more 

 extensive portions of land. You, sir, who are bigoted 

 to no system, and prize no practice but for its utility, 

 will never discourage any rational trial, to indulge the 

 fears of less enlightened persons that it may supersede 

 a favourite practice. 



That your friends, your tenantry, the aspirants to 

 agricultural improvements, and your fellow-subjects at 

 large, may long continue to benefit, as they long have 

 done, by your public-spirited and successful exertions 

 in their cause, and that you may long live happy in 

 their esteem, and in the well-earned applause of a grate- 

 ful country, is the sincere wish of. 



Sir, 

 Your most devoted, and obliged 



Humble Servant, 



WoBURN Abbey, 



Oc^ 7^,1824. GEORGE SINCLAIR.
