Macmillans published an edition in 1896, Newnes in 1897.

It was included in the "Oxford Library," 1898.

An illustrated edition, an edition produced under the supervision of Dr.Knapp, a miniature edition of Dent's, and the reprint of the Minerva edition, already referred to, appeared in 1900, apart from booksellers' reprints such as those of Denny and Mudie.
{38} Dr.Jessopp in _Daily Chronicle_.

April 30th, 1900.
{39a} Borrow is said to have expressed a desire to meet but three sentient beings: Dan O'Connell, Lamplighter (a racehorse), and Anna Gurney.

He was introduced into the presence of the last-mentioned at Sheringham, but so far below the vision was the reality (as must appear) that he turned and ran without stopping till he came to the Old Tucker's Inn at Cromer (East Anglian tradition).
{39b} Mary Clarke, widow, daughter of Edmund Skepper, was wedded to Borrow on April 23rd, 1840.
