3pp., 4to. In fair condition, on aged, worn and browned paper. Ada Chesterton worked with her brother-in-law while assistant editor of the 'New Witness'. Her admiration for his talents was fully reciprocated, G. K. Chesterton describing his sister-in-law as 'brilliant'. It begins: 'Very much has been written and said of G. K. C. the poet, the pamphleteer, the genius of paradox, who holds the attention of his listeners by his dazzling sleight of words. I am going to write of him from a different angle - G. K. C. the journalist as he is known and gauged in Fleet Street. There is held, generally speaking, a most mistaken view of that same Fleet Street which is for the most part regarded as the mere receptacle for the Capitalist press: the place where mis-statements by the million are issued from a rapidly revolving hoe and distributed broadcast.' She proceeds to describe 'another side of Fleet Street', 'an informal tribunal where men are tried for offences never mentioned in the public press', a place where arrogance is 'a sin'. It is here that there is 'no greater idol' than Chesterton, 'a supreme journalist' who 'can write anywhere and anywhen on anything'. She recounts an anecdote regarding an incident involving a 'distinguished literary critic' and Chesterton, 'during the life of the New Witness'. She concludes by stating that, having 'worked with him in difficult and troublous circumstances', she feels that Chesterton proves 'his title to genius more in his capacity for turning the commonplace of existence into the pure gold of fine thought'. It is unknown whether the piece was published.
