25 dn
There seems to be an error here? Is it 5 letters or 4? Whichever it is it's rather obscure.
Have a tentative ?T??

Stab?

What's the clue?

[walgraver]

25D - might be Eton. Henry Fielding (Tom Jones) was pupil there during its third century of existence but don't know how this relates to the linked 8D.
What about 14D - Confucius he claim Chinese one (10) I have ?E?T?????? or
29A - A well-known London suicide (6,4) I have ???T?N?D??

[mra1]

29 Across is Martin Eden - a character in a book by Jack London

I still don't think we know what the clue is for 25d

[NC4BBQ]

If 8d is GLOSSAIAL--as seems likely--then that may fit NOTE (ETON making upward progress).

For 14d all I come up with is RESTITUTOR.

[NC4BBQ]

Sorry--GLOSSARIAL for 8d.

Thanks. As it happens I wouldn't have got it even if I'd known what the clue was.

If PENTATEUCH replaces RESTITUTOR, then 26a is URIM (in Exodus, 2nd book) and 28a is HOST. Those are better than my original suggestions.
