It will presently seem incredible the chief argument hitherto advanced against my assertion that Charlotte Brontë wrote _Wuthering Heights_ was that _Wuthering Heights_ and _Jane Eyre_ are "totally dissimilar in style, thought, etc.," for my evidence is proof absolute to the opposite. A recent writer on the Brontës[1] says _Wuthering Heights_ contains nothing whatsoever biographically, or in any way, suggestive of Emily Brontë and her personality, and admits upon the other hand that the characteristic of Charlotte Brontë's writing is her full and intimate self-revelation of the incidents of her own life. Nothing can recall these words. They are a frank, or an ingenuous, statement of irrefutable fact; and though the writer did not journey to the logical conclusion, it is well he is associated with this fundamental admission. The same significant truth is voiced still more recently by another writer, who says: "_Wuthering Heights_ reveals nothing of Emily Brontë. Not one of the characters thought or felt as did the quiet, retiring" Emily[2]. Much detached yet valuable and interesting evidence I have omitted for the sake of clearness, but it has aided me in regard to the final discoveries I now present, and is ready further to substantiate my conclusions. One of these detached pieces of evidence shows that the younger Catherine and Hareton Earnshaw--the two lovers who at the close of _Wuthering Heights_ become teacher and pupil--latterly were to Charlotte Brontë herself and M. Héger. Apparently she did not wish to end _Wuthering Heights_ without a picture of reconciled relations between two characters who could present a phase of M. Héger and herself. The teacher and pupil relations between Miss Brontë and M. Héger were most dear and gladdening to her memory. We have a glimpse of them in _Villette_, _Shirley_, and in _The Professor_, Chapter XIX., where Crimsworth is reading a book with Francis Evans Henri, whom he is teaching to read and pronounce English. These two characters represent M. Héger and Charlotte Brontë; and Miss Brontë taught M. Héger to read and pronounce English out of her own favourite old books, "consecrated to her by other associations," to quote her own words in _Wuthering Heights_, Chapter XXXI., though often in _The Professor_ she alternates the position of the characters by an interchange of the sexes, a method of Miss Brontë I have discovered and termed her Method I. Let the reader peruse carefully the scene in _The Professor_ in the light of my reference to Eugène Sue and Charlotte Brontë's old copy in English of _The Imitation of Christ_ at Brussels, and in the light of the "reading and pronouncing" scenes in Chapters XXX., XXXI., and XXXII., of _Wuthering Heights_; also:-- Charlotte Brontë in a letter:-- _Wuthering Heights_, Chapter XXXI.:--
