Excerpt from The Blackmore Country Nevertheless, it may be doubted whether the novelist was ever in even comparative affluence. He himself publicly declared that he lost more than he gained from market-gardening - he was, by the way, a - and the late Rev. D. M. Owen, Blackmore's old schoolfellow, with whom he maintained a lifelong correspondence, told me that he was constantly complaining of his pecuniary limitations. Mr Owen's reply was that he had no excuse; he had only to write another Lorna Dome to replenish his treasury to the brim. When, also, he was asked for a subscription to the Culmstock flower show, Blackmore declined, assigning as the reason that he couldn't afford it. This does not look like comparative affluence.
