=EXTRACT FROM PREFATORY NOTE BY MR. ROBERT BROWNING.=

‘In a recent “Memoir of Elizabeth Barrett Browning,” by JOHN
H. INGRAM, it is observed that “such essays on her personal
history as have appeared, either in England or elsewhere, are
replete with mistakes or misstatements.” For these he proposes
to substitute “a correct if short memoir”: but, kindly and
appreciative as may be Mr. Ingram’s performance, there occur
not a few passages in it equally “mistaken and misstated.”’
