Note {19} — Sketch of the Life of Samuel Butler Author of Erewhon (1835-1902) by Henry Festing Jones
Reading edition
I am indebted to one of Butler’s contemporaries at Cambridge, the Rev Dr. T. G. Bonney, F.R.S., and also to Mr. John F. Harris, both of St. John’s College, for help in finding and dating Butler’s youthful contributions to the Eagle.
