Autobiography of Dean Merivale. Edited by his Daughter, Judith Anne

Merivale. (E. Arnold. 16s.)-This book was printed for private circulation some eighteen months ago, and was then reviewed in the Spectator.

Here is a passage from one of the "Lake Letters ":-" I feel more and more the impossibility of blinking the fact of the two religions that divide us. It must end in the final separation of the objective Christian from the subjective-of the Romish principle from the Genevan."
