Beside the river's wooded reach,

The fortress, and the mountain ridge,
The cataract flashing from the bridge,
The breaker breaking on the beach."

PREFACE.

Ir appears hardly necessary to say anything by way of introduction to so small a work as the present; but it may be remarked that the pages which treat of Salcombe and its vicinity were written at the suggestion of the two young ladies whose friendship holds so pleasing a place in the remembrance of our stay in Devonshire, and that those which tell the tale of Kingsbridge were written by Mr. Young at the request of the Publisher.

The drawings illustrating the scenery of Kingsbridge were made by Miss Tregelles, of the latter place, whilst for those of Salcombe the Author alone must be responsible.

June, 1861.
