The Charles
Dickens Connection
The connection
between the author Charles Dickens and Malton was through a solicitor,
Charles Smithson, who practised in Chancery Lane. Dickens was godfather
to one of Smithson’s daughters. In 1844 when Smithson died, Dickens
attended the funeral. For more information see the
Smithson website.
