All items good, though on dusty and aged paper. Five items are addressed to sellers of manuscripts (probably the same individual). ONE (to H. Barker, 23 April 1885, on letterhead of 'The Antiquarian Magazine and Bibliographer', one page, octavo): Asks to be offered Wellesley autographs purchased at a recent Sotheby sale, of which he sent an account to 'The Times', which was 'crowded out'. TWO (to F. Barker, 25 April [1885], 'at T. Herly Esq, Crickfield, nr Bracknell', one page, 12mo): Thanks him for the Wellesley frank and asks to be sent a catalogue at Herly's ('he is a great collector, both of franks & letters'). THREE (to A. Barker, 1 July [no year], 2 Hyde Park Mansions, Edgware Road, NW, two pages, 12mo): Encloses payment for Gough MSS., and asks to look over the bundles of franks that he saw at Barker's house the previous week. Wonders if he would advertise his autograph dealing in the 'Antiquarian'. FOUR (no correspondent or date [but 1890], 7 Hyde Park Mansions, on cancelled letterhead of the New Athenaeum Club, two pages, 16mo): Asks for two manuscripts from the collection of Miss Tucker, offered to his correspondent at Walford's suggestion. 'Had I asked her, she wd have given me some, but I did not care to do so'. FIVE (to unnamed correspondent, 11 February 1890, 7 Hyde Park Mansions, one page, 16mo): He is glad his correspondent bought the Tucker autographs, and is sending in exchange for the two he requested 'two autographs of my dear old friend, Edward Jesse, the author of the "Book of Dogs", and an eminent practical naturalist.' Adds in postscript 'I hear that Stock has at last had to give up the Folklore Journal'. SIX (to 'Taylor', 15 June 1860, on 'Once a Week' letterhead, two pages, 12mo): As he knows nothing on the subject of Birmingham suggests that Taylor contact his friend C. Ratcliffe at the Conservative Club ('say you are a friend of mine, & ask him whether he can tell you'). Wonders if Lady Carnegie's death has 'put off the Fotheringham affair'. Has just become editor of the 'Court Circular'. 'You will be able to reprint Lady C's obituary, & perhaps to pick out the West End news, all of which is original. Perhaps also one or two scraps about the Grandison Peerage may be of service. | If you like to exchange papers, I will have the arrangements effected. (address 188 Strand).' SEVEN (to unnamed correspondent, 6 July [no year], 2 Hyde Park Mansions, one page, 16mo): Returns some things he thinks may be his correspondent's. EIGHT (to Mrs Ratcliffe, July 19 [no year], 2 Hyde Park Mansions, NW, two pages, 16mo): As requested by Colonel Ratcliffe, gives details of two doctors 'whose forte lies in rheumatic cases'. NINE (to unnamed correspondent, 29 November 1864, on 'Once a Week' letterhead, two pages, 12mo): Knows 'all about' Mr Wright's 'parentage &c. and need scarcely trouble him for any other fact except the place where he was at school.' TEN (to unnamed correspondent, 15 February 1879, Hampstead, on cancelled London Institution letterhead, two pages, 12mo): Gives details of publication of first number of the 'Antiquary'. 'How wd. it suit your convenience to send me a retrospective paper on the Fen Country for it? I fear that it must be an honorary help; even my work as Editor is to be unpaid.' Has been at Wisbech, and 'found the flat country very charming'. Has a 'very large collection of franks: but I desiderate franks of all the Earls of Harborough, except the last. Is it possible that you could get any from the Sherards your neighbours off the backs of old letters? If not, could you learn from them who the solicitors of the family were, in order that I may make trial there?'.
