Excerpt from The Last Words of Thomas Carlyle; Wotton Reinfred: A Romance; Excursion (Futile Enough) To Paris; Letters

The interest of Wotton Rez'nfred to me is considerable from the sketches which it con tains of particular men and women, most of whom I knew and could, if necessary, identify. The story, too, is taken generally from real life, and perhaps Carlyle did not finish it from the sense that it could not be published while the persons and things could be recognized. That objection to the publication no longer exists. Everybody is dead whose likenesses have been drawn, and the incidents stated have long been forgotten.
