THE NEW RECTOR.

ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS.—'If he did not know that Anthony Trollope was no more, a reader who took up "The New Rector" might well suppose that he was reading Trollope, and during that novelist's best period.'

BRITISH WEEKLY.—'In "The New Rector" Mr. Stanley J. Weyman has achieved a distinct success. The book is carefully planned, admirably written, without a single superfluous word, and full of a gentle and wise charity. It will add much to the author's already high reputation.'

PALL MALL GAZETTE.—'Mr. Weyman certainly knows how to write, and he writes about what he knows.... "The New Rector" is a book of genuine interest.'

GLASGOW HERALD.—'The plot is new, and well justified in the working out. In this novel setting, the familiar figures of the country parsonage tale stand out with wonderful freshness.'
