George Meredith at Work.

It is forty years ago since George Meredith’s first book was published, but it is only within the last ten or twelve that his name has become known to a really wide public. Meredith is a tall, gray-haired a brilliant conversationalist, and a perfect linguist. He does all his work in a little hut which he erected some years ago at the top of bls garden; but he is not one of those authors who bore their visitors with accounts of their writings or plots, and It is rarely, indeed, that he can be pfcrsuaded.to say a word • his friends about his past qr future stories?
