THE Orpheus C. Kerr Papers

Are now comprised in three volumes, uniformly bound, price $1.50 each, sold separately, entitled:

  • FIRST SERIES,
  • SECOND SERIES,
  • THIRD SERIES.

To say that these criticisms of Orpheus C. Kerr are universally known, admired, and laughed at, would be superfluous. Their inimitable wit and sarcasm have made the author famous, and since his letters have been published in book form their circulation has been enormous. Copies, will be sent by mail free, on receipt of price, $1.50, by G. W. CARLETON & CO., Publishers, New York.

PREFACE.

"AVERY GLIBUN" being my first essay in sustained fiction, it seems remarkably prudent to say no more about it.

In
GRATEFUL RECOGNITION
OF
THE INDIVIDUAL SYMPATHY, ENCOURAGEMENT, AND GENEROUS PRAISE
EXTENDED TO THE AUTHOR
AT A TIME WHEN HE REALLY NEEDED SUCH
DISINTERESTED HELPS;
AND
REQUIRING NO AUGMENTATION TO MAKE THEM SURPASSINGLY WELCOME,
WHEN, TO A CERTAIN EXTENT,
SUBSEQUENTLY JUSTIFIED BY MORE OR LESS OF PUBLIC APPROVAL;
THIS
EXPERIMENTAL COMBINATION
OF
THE OLD AND NEW SCHOOLS OF FICTION
IS
AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED
TO
NOBODY.
