Abstract: Recently, Mastroianni and Monegato derived error estimates for a numerical approach to evaluate the integral

\begin{displaymath}\int_a^b \int_{-1}^1\frac{f(x,y)}{x-y}dxdy, \end{displaymath}

where $(a,b)\equiv (-1,1)$ or $(a,b)\equiv(a,-1)$ or $(a,b)\equiv (1,b)$ and $f(x,y)$ is a smooth function (see G. Mastroianni and G. Monegato, Error estimates in the numerical evaluation of some BEM singular integrals, Math. Comp. 70 2001, 251-267). The error bounds for the quadrature rule approximating the inner integral given in Theorems 3, 4 of that paper are not correct according to the proof. However, following a different approach, we are able to improve the pointwise error estimates given in that paper.
