With Illustrations By Phiz,
In Two Volumes. Vol. I.
Boston: Little, Brown, And Company. 1907.
To G. P. B. JAMES, Esq.
Dear James,—You, once upon a time, dedicated to me a tale of deepand thrilling interest Let me now inscribe to you this volume on the pleaof that classic authority who, in the interchange of armour, “gave Brassfor Gold.”
It is, however, far less to repay the obligation of a debt by giving you a“Roland”—not for your “Oliver,” but your “Stepmother”—than forthe pleasure of recording one “Fact” in a bulky tome of Fiction, that Inow write your name at the head of this page,—that fact being, thewarm memory I cherish of all our pleasant hours of intercourse, and thesincere value I place upon the honor of your friendship.
Yours, in all esteem and affection,
CHARLES LEVER.
