	Charles Reade
		Charles Reade is a big, heavy, rugged, gray man; a sort of portlier Walt Whitman, but with closer-cut hair and beard; a Walt Whitman, let us say, put into training for the part of a stout British vestryman.
		Reade began to devote himself to exposing this or that social and legal grievance calling for reform, and people came to understand that a new branch of the art of novel-writing was in process of development, the special gift of which was to convert a Parliamentary blue-book into a work of fiction.
		Reade wants no quality which is necessary to make a powerful story-teller, while he is distinguished from all mere story-tellers by the fact that he has some great social object to serve in nearly everything he undertakes to detail.

		Reade spent an inordinate amount both of mental energy and of his fortune upon the stage; he wrote in a period of staginess and melodrama and easily succumbed to the taste of the time.
		A charge of plagiarism from Swift, Reade repudiated angrily in a reply appended to a later edition; by what a mass and diversity of reading his pictures are supported may be gathered from that document.
		This was but one of numerous occasions on which Reade’s notions of literary property brought him under suspicion, and his litigious and combative disposition often turned suspicion into active enmity.

		Reade's health failed from that time, and he died on the nth of April 1884, leaving behind him a completed novel, A Perilous Secret, which showed no falling off in the arts of weaving a complicated plot and devising thrilling situations.
