Excerpt from Meditations in Motley: A Bundle of Papers Imbued With the Sobriety of MidnightOf the essays included in this unpretentious bundle, one or two first saw the light in the most unexpected and obscure corner of a somewhat obscure parochial register, under the general caption of "In A Corner at Dodsley's." Others have appeared in different periodicals. I am indebted to the Editor of the Arena for permission to reprint the paper on "Prejudice."I first took down the shutters at Dodsley's, in October, 1891, in the darkest, poorest, dismallest alley-way in all Grub street, and for over two years I was to be found there by all those who cared to adventure in the literary slums.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
