Retitled 'Mr. Barlow' in collected editions of the series.

In a letter to Forster of September 1847, Dickens refers to 'the great British novelists'—Fielding, Smollett and Sterne—suggesting that many people would be interested in an essay 'recalling how one read them as a child (no one read them younger than I, I think), and how one gradually grew up into a different knowledge of them, and so forth' (Pilgrim, Vol. V, p. 158).
