Exploits and Anecdotes of the Scottish Gypsies (1886) - William Chambers - Bog

With traits of their origin, character and manners. These pages are full of curious anecdotes of the Scottish gypsies, told in a very entertaining fashion. The anecdotes fully display the gypsies' singular propensities, when excited by lawless passions, or private animosities. Although the authorities are not annexed to these anecdotes, they may be depended on as authentic, as those which are not original are selected and arranged from various periodical publications, and the rest from popular tradition.
