A LIFE OF R. H. HUTTON

[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR] SIR,—I am making a biographical and critical study of Richard Holt Hutton (1826-1897), essayist and editor of The Spectator. I should greatly value the assistance of any reader who may have information or correspondence at his disposal which has not hitherto been published.—Yours truly,
