Crofters Commission Report 1902

In 1901, another Commission visited the Isle of Lewis to ascertain the social condition of the crofters in the island. This was to serve as a comparison to what the Napier Commission had found "twenty" years [in point of fact 18 years] before. I have scanned the Report's nearly 100 pages, without Appendices. After an exercise in OCR (fairly easy), these pages will appear on a new site. The first chapter has been put up here. Others will follow over the next week or two.
