See his letter in Robinson's T/tos. Bewick's Life and Times, p. 267. " I shall feel great pleasure in assisting yoa to avoid the mistakes of many of his well intentioned friends in attributing to him the execution of engravings in which he had no share. I consider him so sujjerior to any of his followers that a careful " weeding " is more calculated to serve than detract from his transcendant merit. The designs by Thurston for Bums, I believe, were entirely engraved by Harry 46 White. I merely ...mention this as ji case in point. " Austin Dobson accepts this authoi'ity, as you will see on reading his remarks on page 134 and 221 of his work, Thomas Bewick and Sis Pupils. You must not think I am making these remarks in any depreciatory spirit of Bewick ; I am much too warm an admirer of his marvellous powers of wood engraving. I rather intend them to illustrate the fact that works, which an authority like Thomson, does not consider favourable specimens, may have been, as Harvey asserts, the work of one of his pupils and the master's fame suffers by having them placed to his credit.
