The author of the article -entitled " Pleiades " on p. 736 of your issue for May 3rd writes this sentence : "It is not what George Eliot made of -The Mill on the Floss or Middle- march when she drew the figures of Hetty or Lydgate. . . ." Surely Hetty is one of the characters in Adam Bede, not in The Mill on the Floss.—ARTHUR POLLOK SYM, D.D., 18 Wester Coates Gardens, Edinburgh. [Orion asks us to say for-him "Peceavi."—En. Spectator.]
