On August 1st, 1881, a story appeared in _Aunt Judy’s Magazine_ No. 184, entitled “The Land of Idleness, by LEWIS CARROLL.” This story was really written by a lady, FRÄULEIN IDA LACKOWITZ. Acting on her behalf, Mr. CARROLL forwarded it to the Editor: and this led to the mistake of naming him as its author. In October, 1887, the writer of an article on “Literature for the Little ones,” in _The Nineteenth Century_, stated that, in 1864, “TOM HOOD was delighting the world with such works as _From Nowhere to the North Pole_. Between TOM HOOD and Mr. LEWIS CARROLL there is more than a suspicion of resemblance in some particulars. _Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland_ narrowly escapes challenging a comparison with _From Nowhere to the North Pole_. The idea of both is so similar that Mr. CARROLL can hardly have been surprised if some people have believed he was inspired by HOOD.” The date 1864 is a mistake. _From Nowhere to the North Pole_ was first published in 1874.
