　　Knowing the deep reliance to be placed on every note andstatement of Mr. Pickwick’s, and not presuming to set up ourrecollection against the recorded declarations of that great man,we have consulted every authority, bearing upon the subject, towhich we could possibly refer. We have traced every name inschedules A and B, without meeting with that of Eatanswill; wehave minutely examined every corner of the pocket county mapsissued for the benefit of society by our distinguished⁴ publishers,and the same result has attended our investigation⁵. We aretherefore led to believe that Mr. Pickwick, with that anxious desireto abstain⁶ from giving offence to any, and with those delicatefeelings for which all who knew him well know he was soeminently remarkable⁷, purposely substituted a fictitiousdesignation, for the real name of the place in which hisobservations were made. We are confirmed in this belief by a littlecircumstance, apparently⁸ slight and trivial in itself, but whenconsidered in this point of view, not undeserving of notice. In Mr.

　　Pickwick’s note-book, we can just trace an entry of the fact, thatthe places of himself and followers⁹ were booked by the Norwichcoach; but this entry was afterwards lined through, as if for thepurpose of concealing
