Dickens claims that for a period of time, the Writers House was in the use of the circus owner, who then decided to leave the structure.
The former tenant after the events began to lead a secretive lifestyle. The creator states that the self-respecting people did not want to admit that they had ever collaborated with the above-mentioned gentleman.
The latter was eventually discovered not far from Detford. He was sitting at the door of a wooden house, smoking a pipe. He admitted that his name was Toby Magsman, and stated that he had had to leave the Writers’ House because of Lilliput’s activities. Mr. Magsman agreed to share details.
Circus workers referred to Lilliput as Farsh. According to Toby, Farsh was always confident that he would amass untold wealth. Besides, Lilliput had one peculiarity — he never signed anything.
