Good morning, everyone

I wonder if anyone could solve a puzzle for me, please.

Purdy's bibliography states that the Graphic serial of 'The 
Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid' had four illustrations, 
but my copy seems to have only three.

Does anyone have ready access to the Graphic? The issue in 
question is the Summer Number for 1883 (probably bound in 
at the back of that year's volume)

Thank you
Martin

I have copies of all four illustrations. All four were only printed in the original Graphic publication. I discovered this when I edited the text for my dissertation. If you would like, I could send you a copy of the missing illustration.

Dear Russ

How kind of you to get in touch, and so promptly: thank you.

Yes, please, I'd love to have a copy, if it's not too much 
trouble. You can see which one I'm missing if you go into 
the THSNA Short Stories page and follow Illustrations. 
(It's the illus. which is unique to the Graphic)

The only info I would need is the page number. 
Incidentally, do let me know if you have any short story 
material on the web which you would like me to link to.

Thank you again. I very much appreciate it

All best wishes
Martin
