THE following instructions were given by Lord Brougham to me, as his executor:
"Before the Autobiography can be published, you must see that it is arranged chronologically.
"If (writing from memory) I have made mistakes in dates, or in proper names, let such be corrected; but the Narrative is to be printed AS I HAVE WRITTEN IT.
"I alone am answerable for all its statements, faults, and omissions. I will have no Editor employed to alter, or rewrite, what I desire shall be published as EXCLUSIVELY MY OWN.
"BROUGHAM, November, 1867."
In publishing Lord Brougham's Autobiography, the above explicit directions have been scrupulously obeyed. BROUGHAM & VAUX.
