Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (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.

This is a reproduction of a book published before 1923. This book may have occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections, have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide. We appreciate your understanding of the imperfections in the preservation process, and hope you enjoy this valuable book.

Excerpt from Bardell V. Pickwick: The Trial for Breach of Promise of Marriage Held at the Guildhall Sittings, on April 1, 1828, Before Mr. Justice Stareleigh and a Special Jury of the City of LondonBoz had been a sort of general reporter on the Chronicle: he took everything. He had reported at police courts as well as at the law courts. His quick and bright intelligence seized the humours here, as it did those of the street.

In the Navy pay ofiice we find the name of John Dickens as fifth clerk, and it is curious that in the Treasurer's branch we should come upon a fellow-clerk of His bearing the name of Samuel Tupman. Dickens's father was sent down to Chatham in the year 1819. He was, of course, no more than a superior clerk, with £200 a year. He first lived at No. 11 (then No. 2) Ordnance-terrace, on the borders of Chatham and Rochester. He later removed to a less pretentious tenement, No. 18, St. Mary's-place, next door to a sort of little Bethel. His was not a high position, but his bright, little son made his way everywhere and observed everything.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

I have the little Bradshaw still it would go into the waistcoat pocket - by which we strove to find out the way.In the morning we looked out from the front window on the great Lancashire valley which was about us, and noticed the ruins of the venerable, tranquil Old abbey, overgrown with moss and foliage, with its tower and pointed arched window, which was close by. That abbey was a mental landmark, and I have never lost sight of it during the long years that have since elapsed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
