Notes on the natural history of the Bell Rock

by J. M. Campbell

PREFACE.

These desultory notes were originally undertaken at the instigation of an invalid friend, desirous of a closer acquaintance with our lonely environments.

At the termination of a nine years’ residence on the Rock, I have been advised to publish them in book form, and being fortunate in securing the services of a generous publisher, they are now collected from the columns of the local press and issued in this form in the hope that they may interest the general reader.

I have to thank the Editors of The Arbroath Guide and Chambers’s Journal for their courtesy.

J. M. CAMPBELL,
Assistant Lightkeeper.

Bell Rock Lighthouse,

May 1904.
