Summary
Explaining to the author of an article entitled "A London Printing House" how that article appeared in Bentley's Miscellany without the author's consent and without attributing it to him. The letter notes that Sir Lascelles Wraxall submitted the article directly to the printer. Ainsworth states that he did not know that Wraxall had translated it from a German publication, the "Deustches Museum," and had not written it himself.
