The West London Directory is a great success.

Be it observed, this work is not a reprint of this or any of last years’ Directories. The inhabitants of the various townships within a radius of several miles can bear testimony that we have faithfully canvassed them for the requisite information. It also contains two-thirds more streets, crescents, terraces, places, &c., &c., than any work that has been published for this district, besides an excellent map drawn and printed by themselves specially for this work.

They would not even insinuate that it is free from error; but they have used every means in their power to make it as correct as possible, and they believe that eventually it will be found to be well worthy of public support.

They much regret that they are a little beyond the time they promised to bring it out, but in order to give it a correct and alphabetical arrangement, the matter required re-writing several times over; this, and other difficulties which they did not foresee, must be their apology. All future editions will not involve more than one-half the labour, and they trust and believe that no complaints will be made against them in this respect any more.
