The paper, presented at the Association's July 1879 Ilfracombe meeting is essentially a short miscellany of odds and ends relating to Devonshire and its history. Its author presents a series of "old wives tales," collected by Mr. J. T. White of Torquay (about Torre Abbey, Dartmouth, and Berry Pomeroy Castle), and who had requested him to “do as I like with them”, he having  been  prevented  by ill health from attending to literary endeavour.
