Excerpt from A Manual of Dignities, Privilege, and Precedence: Including Lists of the Great Public Functionaries, From the Revolution to the Present Time
Tables of Precedence. Characterized at once by dogmatism and incompleteness, they were not even free from the charge of inaccuracy; and though constructed on a most inconvenient plan for the reader, yet the accompanying facility of compilation did not induce fulness, accuracy, or authenticity. Although they furnished some clue to the rank pos sessed by each grade in the peerage, being a meagre series of general titles, they contained no information, by general rule or particular example, respecting the precedence of the individual members of such a class.

Excerpt from A Manual of Dignities, Privilege, and Precedence: Including Lists of the Great Public Functionaries, From the Revolution to the Present Time

Lapse of time had destroyed the completeness and dimi nished the utility of lists, which were at no time remarkable for fulness, correctness, or easy refer ence and in collecting a new series of such tables.
