PREFACE I HAVE written this Gossip not only for the edification of thoseto whom a portion, more or less, may be news, but for those who,like myself, have lived through the whole of Queen Victorias reign,to whom the remembrance of things, almost forgotten, may bringpleasure and excite interest. The items, herein displayed, havebeen gathered from many sources, and their authenticity isguaranteed by giving the name of the authority whence they weretaken, in very many instances ipsissima verba, as paraphrasingwould rob them of their freshness and individuality. All theillustrations are contemporaneous, and, good or bad, belong tothe text and should not be altered. JOHN ASHTON. y
