Friends of the Dickens Forum,

Michael Allen <[log in to unmask]>, who unearths details 
about Dickens's
life and works which are brilliantly spot-on, has a 
request:                                (pjm)

> May I pick the collective brains of Dickens-Listers for information about

> William Dorrit springs immediately to mind, and the will of Miss Havisham
