Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 29: January to June, 1880By the bedside sat his favourite nephew and heir, whose christian name was also Gilbert. He was a young man of three or four and twenty with a face which, allowing for the difference in their years, was, both in character and features, singularly like that of his uncle.

(2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
