Excerpt from Bryan Waller Procter (Barry Cornwall): An Autobiographical Fragment and Biographical Notes, With Personal Sketches of Contemporaries, Unpublished Lyrics, and Letters of Literary Friends

I have been asked - and the request, from the circumstances, has the force of a command - to edit the following memoranda by Mr. Procter relating to himself and his contemporaries, and to accompany them by a few remarks, biographical and otherwise, of my own. My only qualification for this task lies in the fact of my having known and loved Mr. Procter for more than thirty years. Inasmuch as he was, during that period, the friend of almost every person of character in art or letters, and as I saw less of him, owing to my having lived nearly always out of London, than many of his friends did, this qualification seems to me to be an inadequate one. But of that I have not been allowed to judge.
