The world In th« main agrees with the

is kindly, sympathetic, and,
above all, human. Mr. <J. K. <’heater
ton writing of 'David CopperficW and
it a author says: ‘He has created crea
tures who cling to us and tyrannise over
us, creatures whom we would not forget
if we could, creatures whom we could
not forgot if w« would, creatures who are
more actual than the man who made
them.”
The novel begins with the birth of its
hero. David Copperfield, six months
after the. death of his father. An ec
centric great aunt, Miss Betsey Trot
wood. Is present in the house but de
parts quite as suddenly as she arrived
when she learns tliut the child is a boy
and cannot bear her name. David's
mother is quite alone in the world with
the exception of plain I’eggotty, her de
voted serving woman: Peggotty, with no
shape at ail, and so very plump that
when any liltle exertion Is made after
she is dressed, some of the buttons on
the back of her gown fly off.
Being however youthful and pretty,
Clara Copperfield soon marries the stern
Mr. Murdstone who prove,s to be not only
stern but. hard and cruel. On the occa
sion of his mother’s marriage David is
sent with I’eggotty to visit her brother
at Yarmouth, where he, with his niece,
little Emily, and nephew Ham, occupy a
superannuated old boat now converted
into a most delightfully cozy home. Little
Emily with her winning ways grows very
dear to David as do the honest flsher
folk with whom she lives.
Returning home, David at once be
comes an object of detestation to his
stepfather, and in consequence is packed
off to school. Here his misery continues
under a master, or rather bully, Creakle,
whose chief zest in life consists in the
infliction of pain on some hapless vic
tim. The one bit of brightness in school
life is his attachment for James Steer
fort h, a handsome, debonair, dashing lad,
with the faculty of making everyone Ills
friend But school days are brought to
a sudden halt by the death of David's
mother, crushed by her husband's cease
less tyranny. l>.ggotty is dismissed and
Barkis tht stags driver whose courtship
has consisted in ihe singular message
sent through David of "Barkis is will
ing" finally succeeds in making I’eggot
ty willing also. \
After months of utter neglect David Is
sent to London, where; h» becomes at
ten years of age, a little laboring hind
in a dilapidated old warehouse, in the
service of Murdstone and Grimby. wine
merchants. Half starved, wearied by long
I houre of labor amid repulsive compan

ture He lodges with a Mr. and Mrs.
Wilkins Mlcawber and their numerous
progeny. Mr Mlcawber, always in pecun
. iary difficulties and always expecting
something to “turn up" and always in
j possession of a fine flow of oratory, is
alternately buoyed up by a conviction
i that fortune is at last about to smile
upon him. and reduced to the depths of
despair by her sudden and unaccount
able withdrawal David comes to have a
genuine liking for the couple, so much so
that when the Micawbera. having failed
to meet certain financial obligations, are
obliged to move to prison, and David to
se»*k new’ quarters, he feels sueh a sense
of loneliness that he determines to run
away to his aunt. Betsey Trotwood at

I ( urioualy unshaded appearance. and
i which seem to David to be ceaselessly

clammy hand grasp fill David with un
