Smith on Farming.

Smith on Statistics cfec," — 
On the top right -hand comer of this cover is the figure 8. 
On the back cover is written " This MS. contains 22 leaves and the 
cover 45 pages in all and belongs to A. and E. Turnbull." 
On the inside of the cover, (numbered 9), is written, by Phillips, 
Copy of Mr. Smith's Memoir of the Stratification of Hackness Hills," 
1829. The whole of this page is in Phillips's writing, and extends to the 
words " Danby Dale above Thornton extends its ramifications." The 
next page (10) is in Smith's writing, which is unusually small and neat. 
Apparently Phillips had wiitten out the first page to replace the first 
page of Smith's notes, which was doubtless damaged or discoloured. 
At the bottom of page 10 is " V. 15." 
This memoir on Hackness is apparently that read to the Yorkshire 
Philosophical Society, when Mr. Smith presented a copy of his Hackness 
map to that Institution. It is printed in extenso in appendix C. 
Page 11 is only partially filled. It is headed "Geograph) . Rules 
for pronunciation." It contains sixteen lines, such as " eaux as o, in 
Bordeaux, &c." 
Pp. 12 and 13 are missing, but fortunately were apparently of no 
great importance. 
P. 14 begins "are among the most fatal snares. Alas ! there is too 
much truth in the severe observation, ' How few young professors are 
there, that will not forsake their Christian friends and their Redeemer, 
for an ungodly wife or husband,' " and there are other sentences 
quoted from " Persuasives to early Piety, by G. Pike. 1821." 
Below this is " The penetential prayer of Archb^' Cranmer, a few 
moments before his Martyrdom," which is quoted. 
P. 15. On this is evidently a continuation of the Hackness Memoir. 
Below the first word ''Geology]" is " 10," on which page occurred the 
V. 15." This page is reproduced herewith, actual size (page 185).
