EXTRACT FROM PREFACE. 



Although the first edition of Yorkshire Folk-Talk met 

 with so favourable a reception from the public, and the 

 issue was so soon exhausted, it is only now, after a lapse of 

 nineteen years, that I have found it practicable to put forth 

 a new and cheaper one. 



During the past twenty years we find that the broad 

 Yorkshire talk of former days has, in most districts, suffered 

 loss from contact with that of the world outside. The old 

 folks pass away from us, and those of another, though not 

 better tongue, take their place. But this fact should only 

 make us cherish the more that which still is left to us. And 

 assuredly, whether the language of the people of East York- 

 shire be living or dead, it will well repay careful study. The 

 more closely we examine it, the more interesting it becomes.
