Excerpt from Tales of a Wayside Inn, Vol. 4 of 6 The work went on rapidly after this, for with The Saga of Eng Olaf and other poems on hand, he needed to write but little more to furnish the group he had fashioned with tales enough to rep resent them. He sent the book to the printer in April, 1863, under the title of The Sudbury Tales, but in August wrote to Mr. Fields: I am afraid we have made a mistake in calling the new volume The Sudbury T ales. N ow that I see it announced I do not like the title. Sumner cries out against it, and has persuaded me, as I think he will you, to come back to The Wayside Inn. Pray think as we do.
