WHY CHARLES DICKENS
RESIGNED EDITORSHIP
Affronts by Proprietor Drove
Novelist From London
Daily Paper.

In a curiously interesting article in
the Nineteenth Century and After.
Jesse Quail reveals for the first time,
the reason which caused Charles
torship Of the Daily News, in the
founding Of which he had 80 large a
share. after occupying the position
for less than three weeks. says tho
Christian Science Monitor.
The question always has been some
thing OF a mystery. One OF the most
typical Incidents in the life Of the great
novelist Ia the energy and devotion
with which he threw himself into the
work OF establishing what was after
greatest newspapers. Yes less than
three weeks after the frst number
had come from the press, Drought

Dickens wrote on the copy still pre-
served at the Daily News office. less
for which he had labored so hard.
Dickens had left the editorial chair and
was planning to go abroad TO write
a new book"
But why? What was It that caused
work with such undimlnished ardor
that he threw II up altogether in less
than three weeks? The answer Is given
in full by Dickens himself in n letter
written on February 20, 1916 to Mr..
Evans, one Of the propretors OF the
Daily News. This letter, which was res
cued from destruction some fifty years
for some time. but, as ne explains
in his article, consideration for the
feelings Of individuals concerned has
delayed It's publication. Such reasons,
however. as previously existed against
publication exist no longer and so Mr..

dressed to Mr.. Evans, and Is dated
from Devonshire Terrace, "Thursday.

into the mater at once. Evidently re-
plying 20 n question from Evans, rather
than to rH1hury, the other partner
in the firm, Dickens writes: II ad-
dressed you, because I am not in that
state OF feeling with reference to your
partner which would render personal
negotiations with him agreeable to me.

tween me and almost every act OF
disrespectful to me as injurious to the
enterprise And I entertain so strong
sentiment on this point, that ] have
already informed my successor in the
editorship that ] would on no account,
attend any meeting OF proprietors Mt
which he may likely to be present"
Dickens then goes on to cite two
fragrant instances where Bradbury had
trespassed upon his province, and to
insist the position in which he found
himself placed in these two cases
was botn calling and offensive. 81
II conceive have a right he says,
to claim 80 much consideration as to
hold your partner bound in both these
instances TO have FULFILLED my engage
ments without the least inquiry, and
then to have come to rue and said any
thing in reference to them that he de-
sired to say"
