will be glad to read words, however few, from that bright source, and whose memories will respond to the fresh touch of that cherished name.

While Lewis Carroll was staying in the house, there came to call a certain genial and by no means shy Dean, who, without realizing what he was doing, proceeded, in the presence of other callers, to make some remark identifying Mr. Dodgson as the author of his books.
There followed an immense explosion immediately on the visitor's departure, with a pathetic and serious request that, there were any risk of a repetition of the call, due warning might be given, and the retreat secured.
