OF THE PORTRAITS

AT WESTON

THE SEAT OF

THE EARL OF BRADFORD

A true delineation, even of the smallest man, and his scene of pilgrimage through life, is capable of interesting the greatest man; for all men are to an unspeakable degree brothers, each man’s life a strange emblem of every man’s, and human portraits faithfully drawn are, of all pictures, the welcomest on human walls.’ Carlyle.

LONDON: ELLIOT STOCK
