| Evidence: | Branwell Bronte to Francis H. Grundy, 9 June 1842:
'Mr James Montgomery and another literary gentleman who have lately seen something of my
"head work" wish me to turn my attention to literature, and along with that advice, they give
me plenty of puff and praise. All very well, but I have little conceit for myself, and great
desire for activity.' |
