Evidence: | 'I see your name mentioned among the writers in Constable's Encyclopaedia; pray tell me what articles you have written: I shall always read anything which you write. The travels of the Gallo-American gentleman alluded to by Mr Constable are I suppose those of Mr Simon. He is a very sensible man, and I should be curious to see the light in which this country appeared to him. I should think he would be too severe'. |
