The History of Henry Esmond by William Makepeace Thackeray

TO THE RIGHT HONORABLE

WILLIAM BINGHAM, LORD ASHBURTON.

MY DEAR LORD,

The writer of a book which copies the manners and language of Queen

Anne's time, must not omit the Dedication to the Patron; and I ask leave

to inscribe this volume to your Lordship, for the sake of the great kind-

ness and friendship which I owe to you and yours.

My volume will reach you when the Author is on his voyage to a

country where your name is as well known as here. Wherever I am, I

shall gratefully regard you; and shall not be the less welcomed in Amer-

ica because I am,

Your obliged friend and servant,

W. M. THACKERAY.

LONDON, October 18, 1852.
