 \nOF  \n# CHARLOTTE BRONTE\n\nBYAUGUSTINE BIRRELL  \nLONDON  \nWALTER SCOTT,LTD.24 WARWICK LANE,PATERNOSTER ROW  \nNOTE.  \nTHE life of Charlotte Bronte has been written oncefor all by Mrs.Gaskell;but as no criticism ofMiss Bronte's novels is possible apart from the story ofher life,I have attempted the biographical sketch thefollowing pages willbe found to contain.  \nFor any lengthened quotations from Mrs.Gaskell'sbook(which is throughout referred to as G.,the pagingbeing that of the popular edition in one volume),I havethe kind permission of MessrsSmith and Elder.  \nMr.Wemyss Reid's monograph on Charlotte Bronte(M2 millan,I877),is well-known,though whether theauthor performs the task he somewhat unnecessarily laidupon himself of proving that Mrs.Gaskel's portrait re-quires re-touching,is a question which is best left openfor the consideration of the judicious reader of bothbooks.Mr.Leyland'stwo volumes,“The Bronte Family”(Sampson Low:1886),deserve to be read by every one,though,so far as he busies himself with Branwell Bronte,he fails to interest those who,to employ an Americanfigure,\"have noruse\"for that young man.Miss Robin-  \n## NOTE.\n\nson has also written in the“Eminent Worhen Series”(Allen),a most interesting account of Emily Bronte,andof her novel and poetry.To allthese writers I expressmy obligations.  \nSmall as this book is it contains some new matter re-lating to the Rev.Patrick Brontě,and to a period of hislife,concerning which nothing hitherto has been written—namely,that which elapsed between his leaving Cam-bridge with his degree in 18o6,and going into Yorkshirein 181I,  \nFor the interesting account I am able to furnish ofPatrick Bronte's life at Wethersfheld,in Essex,I am in-debted,in the first instance,to my friend the Rev.HenryBonner of Handsworth,Birmingham,to whom I owe ntyintroduction to Mrs.Lowe,a daughter of the heroine ofthe tale of true love,which will be found duly recordedin its place.Mrs.Lowe herself I have to thank for hergreat kindness in putting upon paper the story as sheheard it from her mother,and for permitting me to makeuse of it.A.B.  \n## CONTENTS.\n\nCHAPTER I  \nPAGE  \nThe
