l am only permitted to tell one Incl.
dent out of the many that have been
related to me. The best years of
Thackerays life were given to the
affectionate care of his insane wife.
Her disease was that of a violent type,
except at intervals, but she required
constant oversight and attendance.
To secure this, Thackeray bought a
house in the country near London, in
which the invalid was surrounded
with every comfort that love and
sympathy could devise AS she still
cravcd his presence and sceh7ed un-
happy when he was out of her sight,
Thackeray made frequent visits to her
in her retirement. These were the
hours which his enemies declared
were spent in the midst of all kinds of
follies and excesses. They were de-
voted instead to soothing the invalid
repinings ard quieting the unreason.
able suspicious of wife dearly loved
but hopelessly insane. I'm one of his
Unpublished letters he relates without
complaint but in a strain of heart
broken resignation, that sometimes his
wife could only be appeased in her in.
sane moments by being permitted to
beat him with her'hsked fists. This he
endured shut up with her for 1tours, or
until the violence Of her passion had
passed. when he would emerge from
her rooms looking like ore d" who has
died once and comes Nnwillingly back
again to hated eXisttf1ce." II is not
to be wondered at that Thackeray's
