Letters Of George Cornewall Lewis Bart To Various Friends PDF Download

Excerpt from Letters of the Right Hon. Sir George Cornewall Lewis, Bart: To Various Friends It may then be enquired, why are they printed? Why are they not suffered to remain in that privacy for which no doubt they were intended? I would answer that three reasons have mainly contributed to their publication. The first, because they forcibly illustrate the character, the intellect and learning, and the wisdom of their remarkable writer. The second, because they contain many facts, and relate to many subj ects in which the public cannot but take interest, and respecting which, I believe, they will be glad to know the Opinions of the author. The third, because some of Sir George Lewis's friends - and especially two of them, to whom he was deeply attached and who were equally attached to him - were earnestly desirous that they should be printed.
