Excerpt from Mrs. Montague Jones’ Dinner Party: Or, Reminiscences of Cheltenham Life and Manners
The critics may raise the objection, that there is not sufficient plot or tale throughout the book; but I presume, that they can hardly blame me for what I have not even attempted to. Do namely, to write a complete or sensa tional novel.
To Mr. Furniss, the artist, I must tender my best acknowledgments, for the able manner in which he has illus trated with his pencil (and thus pre sented before the eye of the reader) what I have only been able to present mentally.
