DICKENS MARITAL
INFELICITIES.

Dickens and his wife Catherine
Hogarth) separated by mutual ag-
rcement in 1858, the eldest son gong
with his mother and the other child
rem with their father.
Dickens wrote to one Of his friends
that he and Mrs. Dickens had lived
together unhappily for many years
as sswe are in all respects OF char
acter and temperament wonderfully
unsuited to each other" He also
wrote: mNothing has, on many oc-
casions, stood between US and sep
aration but Mrs Dickens sister,
Georgine Holgarth," He said, 'the
regularity of her character has
thrown all the care of the children on
someone else"
The popularity" referred to seems
to have been nothing more than lazl-
ness and disinclination to care for
the house and children, which was pro-
voking to her husband, But, on the
other hand, Dickens had the faults OF
the literary temperament-lrrltablllty
sensitiveness and intolerance of dull
ness. He died June 9, 1870, unrecon-
ciled to his wife.
For nearly three score years adj
mirers of the Great English novelist
have specialized on the fact that ne
and his wife could not get along to-
cether. Dickens left but little upon
which to base an opinion, and the
above should be taken with grain OF
salt.
One of Dickens biographers uses
the following significant language:
"Mrs. Dickens intellect developed
slowly" The fact that the noveilst's
wife was unable to appreciate MS
genius Or to sympathize with him IN
his arduous labors, probably is the
key to her "peculiarities."
For many years Georgine Hogarth.
was his confidential companion. Sho
was endowed with brilliancy which
fitted her to be the companion Of
man of Dickens mould. She accom-
panied him to the United States, and
on many of his tours in England and
on the continent.
"Agnes" in David Copperieid was
doubtless Dickens IDEA of peerless
woman. Miss Hogarth, may have
furnished him the model, as this boo''
is believed to bein the main the novel
lists biography.
