Dedication
DEDICATION OF “MASTER HUMPHREY’S CLOCK”
TO
SAMUEL ROGERS, ESQUIRE.
My Dear Sir,
Let me have my Pleasures of Memory in connection with this book, by dedicating it to a Poet whose writings (as all the world knows) are replete with generous and earnest feeling; and to a man whose daily life (as all the world does not know) is one of active sympathy with the poorest and humblest of his kind.
Your faithful friend,
CHARLES DICKENS.
