Evidence

George Eliot to John Chapman, 5 August 1853. “Do you know that you only sent me a part of Parker’s article (16 slips)? I think him an unsatisfactory contributor & heartily repent the engagement of him as of every other American. The affectation of style which overlays the commoness of his matter is repulsive in the extreme.” William Baker, Letters of George Henry Lewes. ELS, University of Victoria 1995-9. p. 33.
