| RLS, alluding from memory to an item in a lost or mislaid issue of "The Melbourne Review", a quarterly publication, ascribes the article to Martin, but Editors’ Note 1 to Letter 492 states that the only article on George Eliot in "The Melbourne Review" was not by Martin but by Catherine Spence , in the April 1876 issue. |
