TINSLEY BROTHERS, 18, CATHERINE ST., STRAND. 1863. [The Right of Translation is reserved.] 250. S. 144. DEDICATION. To the Readers of this, not wholly imaginary, but somewhat hastily-written Tale, these pages are dedicated; and if, during their perusal, it should occur to some, that zeal in a good cause may have outrun discretion, the Author can only hope that a thousand faults may be forgiven, in the name of the one virtue to which he has dared to link them. LONDON, March 8th, 1862. |
