Excerpt from Charles Dickens and His Friends On March 26, 1836, there appeared in The Times an advertisement announcing the immediate publication of the first part of "The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, edited by Boz," and within a few months of this date, Charles Dickens, aged twenty-four, was a famous man. Hitherto he had been known in his own immediate circle as an admirable parliamentary reporter, and the writer of amusing descriptive articles and facetious sketches, a selection of which had been brought out in volume form under the title "Sketches by Boz." He was then living in Furnival's Inn - the actual building, alas, destroyed, though the name of it remains - and was engaged to be married to Catherine Thomson Hogarth, eldest daughter of George Hogarth, one of his colleagues upon the Morning Chronicle. To Miss Hogarth he was married, two days after the appearance of the first part of "Pickwick," in Saint Luke's Church, Chelsea, of which Charles Kingsley's father was then rector.
