Having been unsuccessful in placing an individual with Wilson, Roberts writes: 'Of course forty years ago the advent of a bookshop like yours was a tremendous event, and we all flocked to it as something new and wonderful, as indeed it was. I recollect that among my little batch I bought a "Sesame & Lillies" in a little grey cloth cover and it turned out afterwards that it was one of two that Ruskin had had experimentally bound and turned down because he did not like the cover, for which he substituted the well known brown.'.…

Taylor is noticed in his brother's entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. On first leaf of bifolium, the second leaf carrying the address ('R. S. MacKenzie Esqr / Chesterfield'), and a seal in black wax, beneath which is a corner of the leaf, cut away in opening the letter, the leaf also being annotated 'James Taylor of Bakewell / author of "What is Money?". In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of brown paper mount along inner edge of second leaf. Good signature, with expansive flourish, 'Jas Taylor'. He begins by thanking MacKenzie for his 'kind communication', informing him that 'Our Friend Mr Gardener has not yet received the last months numbers of the Farmers Mag[azin]e. and I fear therefore not had an opportunity of seeing the article alluded to'. He proposes to go 'by this days Coach to Leicester' on his way to London. 'When I reach Town, which I expect will be on Wednesday Evening I shall of course obtain the Mag[azin]e', and when he returns he will 'thankfully avail' himself of MacKenzie's 'obliging offer of the Report of the Evidence in the B[?] Charters, unless I have an opportunity of getting a Copy in Town'.

4to, 1 p. Twenty lines. Text clear and complete. Good, on aged paper, with slight traces of mount on reverse. Having read Humberstone's article on the London School of Hygiene, he is 'sending it to the printers to be set up'. He commends the article for dealing with the subject 'in an interesting and useful way'. He rejects the five plans Humberstone has sent, as they would not 'reproduce satisfactorily', and a photograph which is 'too large to go across a page', and would like 'a photograph of the elevation of the School' and 'either a photograph or an electro of the design of the Seal'.…

Letter: 2pp., 12mo. Bifolium. Closely-written with 40 lines of text. In very good condition, lightly-aged, and attached to the book by a thin strip of gummed paper. Mathews writes that it gave him great pleasure to receive Hodson's letter 'a month or two ago', and that he has only delayed replying because it has 'taken some time to get into touch with Rd. Aldington'. He gives a quotation of 24 lines from a letter he has received from Aldington after passing on Hodson's 'kind appreciation'. Aldington writes that he would 'indeed be a paltry sort of fellow' if he 'disdained such thoughtful and encouraging criticism. A letter of this kind is worth so much more than the conventional remark of commercial journalists and the not wholly disinterested concerns of "brother poets".' Hodson's remarks, Aldington writes, encourage him to 'keep on, in spite of the 10 years - I began writing at 17 and am now 27 - of almost unrelieved opposition I have struggled against'. He was 'on the point of abandoning poetry for literary journalism, as many a better man has done before me', and feels that it is 'only in the last year that this opposition has been a little broken'. He has however 'stuck' to his 'trenches and shall do'. 'It was', Mathews feels, 'well worth your while to allow me to pass on your kind appreciation - its a pity more people like yourself - who can value true stuff when they see it do not do likewise!' In a postscript he attempts to sell Hodson a book, observing that he lives 'in Charles Cotton's country' and adding 'I have three volumes with his autograph'. Book: 38 + [1]pp., 8vo. In red printed wraps. Internally in good condition, lightly aged and creased, in worn and chipped binding. With thin strip of gummed paper attaching the letter to the book. Ownership inscription of 'Lawrence W. Hodons' at head of title-page.…

2pp., 4to. Bifolium. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed by Elton, on reverse of second leaf, to 'John Taylor Esq.' (Taylor had assumed the editorship of the London Magazine on the death by duel of John Scott in February 1821.) Elton begins by informing Taylor that he has 'not been able yet to manage the Batrachomyomachia to my mind'. (Elton's translation of 'The Battle of the Frogs and Mice' would appear anonymously in the issue of October 1821, as the second of a series named 'Leisure Hours'.) He has instead 'sent some chit-chat to serve as an introduction'. ('On Homer's Battle of the Frogs and Mice' appeared in September 1821 as the first of the series.) He intends this as 'the first of occasional desultory papers of criticism, poetry, or the like: a specimen or two of the Battle of Frogs may form the second of the series'. Changing the subject, he now declines two books Taylor has sent him to review: he feels that too much has already been said about Madame de Stael, and he has 'already administered the ferula to her somewhat roughly'. He is 'equally diffident about Bonaparte's literary character', and asks whether 'Mr Hazlitt, or Leigh Hunt' are not 'the fittest men to undertake it'. He feels that to 'enter fully' into Taylor's 'plan relative to the Monthly Literature seems to require the interchange of sentiments in conversation', and that this is 'one of the disadvantages of a periodical contributor residing in the country'. He suspects that 'a London domicile' is 'necessary for the convenient and ready arrangement and execution of this sort of monthly summary'. He has been 'thinking of some regular supply of poetry, translated or original, independent of the incidental passages in the Leisure Hours', but has not yet 'ascertained either my plan or my powers'. In the first part of a postscript, he asks 'What is Knickerbocker? [Washington Irving] & is he worth reviewing?' This appears to be a reference to a footnote to the 'Epistle to Elia' by 'OLEN', published in the August 1821 issue of the London Magazine; the footnote also discusses two readings of that poem, thanks Taylor 'for the Magazine', and ends 'It is a pity the writer who so ably reviewed Crabbe, does not continue his "Series of Living Poets.".…
