Anropos If criticism it is 20 be recorded that
Nr Hall Cainc doesn't like critics-which is

mind about them in Il new preface 10 an OLD
book. The thing he chiefly dislkcs in them,
apparently. is their unwillingncSs to accept as
Il great novel book which merely happens to

fact the gentle sarcasm of the London Daily

We presume that Mr. Hall Cainc is referring
