Description:Excerpt from John Bellows, Letters and Memoir In The following pages I have given a selection of such of my husband's letters as were available for publication: leaving them, as far as possible, to tell their own story, and supplementing them with a slight sketch of his life. For the sake of brevity, I have been obliged to omit many letters of considerable interest; whilst others, for the same reason, have been curtailed. Chronological order has been adhered to in the correspondence, except in a few instances where subject order has appeared preferable. My task in editing this volume would have been more difficult but for the advice and assistance of my friend Miss Stephen, of Cambridge, to whom I offer my grateful thanks. Her fine critical faculty and literary taste have been of exceptional value to me in the selection of the letters. My thanks are also due to Dr Thomas Hodgkin for his help on certain archaeological subjects: to the many friends who have placed letters at my disposal for publication: and to my son William for the valuable assistance he has given me in the work. The frontispiece is a reproduction from a photograph taken in 1891 by Mr H. W. Watson, of Gloucester. The portrait facing page 357 is from the painting by Percy Bigland, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1902, and now in my possession. A replica of this painting has recently been presented to the City of Gloucester by my husbands friends, and placed in the Guildhall. The outline illustrations excepting those on pp. 22 and 78 - are facsimiles of my husband's own sketches in his letters.
