  Speaker.--"There are in its pages more good stories, quaint characters,and humorous incidents than we remember to have seen since the days ofLever."

  Academy.--"Sheer unadulterated laughter is one of the best things thateven literature can give, and we are hard put to it to remember a bookof these latter days to which we owe more of it than we do to the IrishR.M."

  Pall Mall Gazette.--"We can warmly recommend this book as a sureantidote for melancholy; it is brimful of brilliant wit and harmlessmirth; it is a tonic for the dyspeptic and a stimulant to the healthymind. A more amusing book has not been written for many a year."

  Mr. Stephen Gwynn in the "Cornhill Magazine."--"There are few greaterattractions than that of open healthy laughter of the contagious sort;and it would be black ingratitude not to pay tribute to the authoressesof 'Some Experiences of an Irish R.M.'--a book that no decorous personcan read with comfort in a railway carriage."

  The Baron de Book Worms in "Punch."--"Dulness is banished from theopening of the book to the close thereof.... Since Charles Lever wasat his best, with 'Harry Lorrequer,' 'Charles O'Malley,' 'Tom Burke ofOurs,' and, may be, 'The Knight of Gwynne,' no such rollicking Irishbook as this has appeared, at least not within the period whereunto thememory of the Baron runneth not to the contrary.... Nothing of asedate or gentle character is to be found here; nearly every story iscalculated to set the table in a roar."
