Three Graces and Village Notes Inspire English Portrait
A London review portrays the Sargents group of Percy's daughters and Mrs Pamela Tennant's Village Notes as a refined look at rural England. It praises the Three Graces praised by the Prince of Wales, contrasts their poised presence with rustic charm, and highlights Tennant's observations of cottage life, speech, faith, and nature in Wiltshire with sympathy and restraint.

Shackleton’s East Side Tales Review 1899
Robert Shackleton’s Toomey and Others is examined as a vivid East Side collection with strong old mammy figures but imperfect handling of urban life. Besant’s The Alabaster Box is praised for vivacious narration and melodrama, while The Fortune of War is criticized for a tiring epistolary frame. Barrow’s Civil War love story is deemed weakly executed.
