"There is little that the author can call his own. The greater part of it is a palpable plagiarism, and the adoption is rendered less valuable by the mutilated and imperfect state in which it was sent into the world." -- Poyer, Hist. of the Barbados, l808, p. x.

On the Frere family in the Barbados see the memoir of John Hookham Frere prefixed to the latter's Works, London, 1872, v. 1, p. xi.
