Going on tiptoe, in stockinged feet, across my field of vision, passed Kegan Van Roon! He was in his shirt-sleeves and held a lighted candle in one hand whilst with the other he shaded it against the draught from the window.
Kegan Paul, Mary's able defender of modern times, denies the whole story. He writes in his Prefatory Memoir to her "Letters to Imlay:" "... Godwin knew extremely little of his wife's earlier life, nor was this a subject on which he had sought enlightenment from herself.
It was engraved and published in the "Monthly Mirror," with Mary's name attached to it, during her lifetime. When Mr. Kegan Paul published the "Letters to Imlay," in 1879, there seemed no doubt of its authenticity. But since then it has been proved to be the portrait of the wife of an artist who lived in the latter part of the eighteenth century.
The subject had for many years been turned about in the poet's mind, which, of course, was busy in these years of apparent inactivity. Then he was succeeded by Messrs H. S. King & Co., who gave place to Messrs Kegan Paul & Co., while in 1884 Messrs Macmillan became, and continue to be, the publishers.

Provided that it is KNOWN what is the diet, we give valuable information." "14th Oct., 1883. "I knew that the publisher to whom you referred could only be Mr. Kegan Paul, who met me some few years back at luncheon in the house of my friends the Miss Swanwicks: that until you told me his name, I thought it better not to write to him.
Brown in your prayers, 'cos he's overlooked the trifling sum that I owe him." This long harangue was received with shouts of laughter, during the continuance of which Mr. Pat Kegan stood before the inspector, with hat in hand, and a face as demure as though no deviltry was at work within his heart. Mr. Brown did not reply, but made an almost imperceptible motion to the sergeant of the force.
"There," Kegan Paul writes, "on a sunny bank sloping to the west, among the rose-wreathed crosses of many who have died in more orthodox beliefs, lie those who at least might each of them have said, 'Write me as one who loves his fellow-men." Mary Wollstonecraft's death was followed by exhaustive discussion not only of her work but of her character. The result was, as Dr.
Claire afterwards alleged that Fanny had been in love with Shelley. Mr. Kegan Paul states the reverse most strongly. It is not easy to conceive how either should have been sure of the fact. Even Shelley's beautiful verses to her memory do not indicate any special reason for her sadness, as far as he was concerned.
Kegan Paul says in his short but appreciative criticism of this book, "showing that she, who could in those matters know nothing personally, could not but depend on Paris gossip; but this is interesting, as showing what the view taken of the queen was before passion rose to its highest, before the fury of the people, with all the ferocity of word and deed attendant on great popular movements, had broken out."
