John Edwards : Recollections of Filey
'On looking over the Articles of a General Factor in the village, where I was transacting some business, a little book of very tasteful and inviting appearance presented itself to me in a glazed puce coloured cover, with its title, concisely expressed, as a label, in the centre within a border of beautiful design, printed in gold "Recollections of Filey by John Edwards". I said to myself, John Edwards. I know; a very pleasant unassuming man he is. I eagerly opened the Book and, on turning the pages over was charmed with its style of topography; and pleased to notice a reference to the [?] in History of Filey ... Indeed, it is a Poem which deserves to be known at Filey, at Scarbro' and everywhere.'
