Emma Martin Marshall has found on p. 176 of the first volume of Harriet Martineau's autobiography a gratifying testimony to her father's reputation. [The mention of Mr. Simon Martin occurs on p. 134 of vol. 1 of the American edition, (Boston, 1877).] Simon Martin was, however, a partner, and not the "head officer" in the Norwich Bank. The memories of Norwich are most interesting to Emma M. Marshall, who was a little girl when her father died.
