Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Bernard Quaritch's Letter to General Starring: January 14th, 1880
IV. That a list of books invoiced by me as having been printed over twenty years, but actually printed within that period, is desired.
V. And finally, that by reason of the alleged fraudulent character of the invoice of books con signed to Messrs. Thomas and Sons, the books were seized for a violation of Section 2864 Revised Statutes of the United States.
The accusations against me are so monstrous and so untrue, that I find it almost beneath my dignity to offer any defence.
