Abstract
'Re George Eliot' 'A' [in red ink]
(Mary Ann Evans)
Sir, I assume that you read the Ten Commandments in your church - yet in the Nuneaton Chronicle article in The Star of Aug. 7, you are said by A. E. Cross 1 to be in favour of a memorial to this 'evil-liver'. Let us hope that if people who gloat over the uncleanly erect a memorial the 'Scarlet letter' 'A" (Adulteress) will be conspicuously placed - as it is written by many of us on the title page of her works -
Let the silly project die or her infamous cohabitation will be re-published
A. P. Richard
