POINTS FROM LETTERS

" MONK " LEWIS.

I am preparing a study of Matthew Gregory (" Monk ") Lewis (1775-1818), and shall welcome communication with any of your readers who can give me information about him, especially of a biographical nature. Biographers of Lewis have depended largely upon the Life and Correspondence . . . (London, 1839) and authorities such as those listed in the D.N.B. Undoubtedly letters to. and from Lewis, and other documents concerning him, still exist, perhaps in the possession of the descendants of his two sisters, to whom I shall be very grateful for any information they can give.—Louis F. PECK, 231 Clermont Avenue, Brooklyn, New York.
