Notice.

Probably one fourth of the impression of No. II. has been lost, destroyed, or is in indifferent or unknown hands. The recipients of these have been repeatedly addressed by the Author, but in vain, to return the copies, if unwilling to accept Nos. III. and IV. The copies of these latter numbers now in his hands which would, with these corresponding copies, have completed so many volumes, accordingly make imperfect sets. In order, therefore, to utilize them, the Author has determined to reprint No. II. To indemnify him for this expense, which is caused by the vexatious indifference and incivility of many of the recipients, he will place the remainder of the thus completed copies of the work in the hands of the Publisher, Mr. Smith, 36, Soho Square, London, for sale to the public, price £1, and £1 and 6d. if sent by book-post. To the 4 numbers of the Notices will be added the Supplement; the Plea for the Antiquity of Heraldry; and Hurstpicrpoint, its Lords and Families, thus making an 8vo vol. of nearly 400 pages, embellished with 9 plates and 3 woodcuts.

No. II. contains a full account of the Ellises of Stoneacre, and of Kent and Sussex. Copies will be sent of the reprint, on application to the Author, for their acceptance, to those Ellises whose ancestry is thus recorded.

A PLEA

FOR THE

ANTIQUITY OF HERALDRY,

WITH AN ATTEMPT

TO EXPOUND ITS THEORY

AND

ELUCIDATE ITS HISTORY.

BY

WILLIAM SMITH ELLIS, ESQ.,

OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE.

LONDON:

JOHN RUSSELL SMITH, 36, SOHO SQUARE.

MDCCCLIII.

PREFACE.

THE text of the following pages formed part of a paper written for publication in the forthcoming sixth volume of the Sussex Archæological Collections; but being of too general a nature for a work of purely local interest, the article, “On the Origin of the Arms of some Sussex Families," to which they were introductory and explanatory, appears without them; and they are published in this manner, as an independent Essay, for the perusal, more appropriately, of heraldic students.

The copious notes which are subjoined, have been subsequently added, as illustrations and elucidations of the text. Before, however, they were written, the text was already in type, or it would have been re-constructed, embodying the new and argumentative part of the notes, and thus making the entire Essay more continuous and compact, and less tautologous.

June, 1853.
