Gunn, Thomas

North, William [pages: 95,121,154]

Gunn mentions seeing William North in the Lantern office on three occasions: April 22, May 20, and July 1, 1852. On all three occasions, Fitz-James O'Brien was also there.

The April 22nd meeting may have been Gunn's first encounter with North, as he states, "[p]resently came in one North, writer, Democrat, Metaphysician and World-Betterer" (95).

On May 20th, Frank Bellew also accompanied North and O'Brien (121).

On July 1, North and O'Brien were at the Latern office.

O'Brien, Fitz-James [pages: 154]

Gunn provides his opinion of O'Brien: "North & O'Brien at the Office. O'Brien's a snob."
