TO
MY FATHER

Some of these essays have appeared in THE LONDON MERCURY, THENINETEENTH CENTURY, THE OUTLOOK, and THE CAMBRIDGE REVIEW. Othershave been selected from a large number I contributed (week by week,under the pseudonym of ‘Peter of Pomfret’) to the YORKSHIREOBSERVER. Others again are the first-fruits of a current series ofsuch things I am contributing to THE CHALLENGE under the generaltitle of ‘New Papers from Lilliput.’ I take this opportunity ofthanking all the editors concerned for their hospitality to thesenot, I trust, too ill-favoured bantlings of mine, and hope thatthey will not regret it if they should now chance to renew theacquaintance.
