'The Predatory Art,' by Henry Morley, the lead article in the 14 March 1857 issue of Household Words, contained the following inaccurate and unfair allusion to the Secretary of the Samaritan Institution: 'I sink to a bathos if I name the good Samaritan who stood by one of the way-sides in a great city, and made application to the rich for food and drink, that he might give them to the poor, but maintained his own kitchen therewith, and sent away unaided and uncomforted many a neighbour who, even in the very house of that Samaritan, had fallen among thieves.' Dickens wrote 'Chips: The Samaritan Institution' as a disclaimer.
