They include Grote, the historian, Charles Darwin, Lyell, Layard, Livingstone, and Borrow, all friends of the third John Murray, who died in 1892. Other celebrities who came within his Albemarle street circle were Lockhart and Moore, Bishop Wilberforce and Dean Stanley, and Gladstone and Salisbury. The Oxford Press has great hopes of a sort of story, “Fanny Penquite,” •by Miss Edith Saunders, which it is publishing.
