Sir Henry Fielding Dickens, son of the author and the last sitviving member of his. imme- diate family. said of him, in an article published in the New York Times three days after his own death; that there was “a side of Charles Dickens’ character which has never been ‘sufficiently im- pressed upon the public. That side is the religious side? His feelings for religion were very deep and were ever uppermost in his mind, which accounts for his ihtetisé humanity. The teaching of the Saviour was the keynote of: mueh that he wrote.” It was the death of Sir Henry. that permitted the publication of Plans for the coming annual re-|«Tphe Life of Our Lord,” so that union will be discussed: and form- +} implication. ‘this manuscript will, at last, :im- thése words, written only a week lor two before his fatal injury’ ih ‘fh motoreyele Aegident in’ Decem- ber, 1983, iat: aig omnes in their Tevelation of press upon the public the religious nature of Cl Dickens. © .* and written’ in“ between times while Charles: Dickens -was at work first on“Dombey,, and.,Son”’ and then .on the most famous of -his novels, “David Copperfield,”. pub- lished “in 1850. The, Dickens. family was already a large one,.so large indeed that the house at No. 1.. Devonshire Terrace, Regent’s Park, .London, where they had lived for ten years, was already becoming too small to: hold them ‘all.. There were eight children, the first. of them. Charles, Jr., born in 1837, and the latest, Henry Fielding, born in January, 1849. ° Sydney was only two years old, but the elder six, ranging in age from twelve down to four years, were at just the period of childhood when haphazard curiosities _ be- ome organized into a coherent barrage of questioning directed at Father. Dickens had been an. extraor- dinarily busy. man. His , huge novels, his editorship of the new- ly organized London |. “Daily News,” his frequent’ trips to America, to Italy, to France, to provincial parts of England, kept him working at top speed for the greater part of every day. * He would. interrupt a sojourn in for- eign. parts_to spb tbh ta De vonshire Torcacs (MMS is fehil- dren, cared.for by ~ the : friendly but soméwhat' stérn Macreadys, in}* the absenée\fof hiniself. and? his].
