The seven letters total 23pp, 12mo. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. The third letter, written from Hickleton on 7 January 1907, is in a secretarial hand, Halifax being 'laid up with Influenza' and 'utterly good for nothing'; it carries an autograph postscript by Russell at the head of the first page. The first letter (…14 July 1900) invites Russell to fill the 'vacancy on the list of Clerical members of our E.C.U. Council'; Russell's acceptance is acknowledged in the second, which also discusses charges of 'disloyalty'. The third letter (7 January 1907) refers to 'the battle [.] on the Education question', which has 'only just begun [.] I think we want to construct a policy for ourselves, & if possible, carry the war into the enemy's country'. A week later, Halifax discusses a conference in Manchester, which he would like to attend, despite not feeling 'up to speaking at a public meeting'. The letter includes a two-page statement concerning Halifax's position on 'Undenominationalism' ('as ever the enemy'). Halifax has written to the Bishop of Manchester on the subject of education, and feels that 'we ought for one thing to insist that those who want Cowper Temple teaching should pay for it - just as it now seems to be admitted by every one that denominationalists have to pay for their own denominational teaching'. Halifax asks for Russell's and Canon Cleworth's views on the question, and the next two letters concern an attempt to arrange a meeting to discuss it, with reference to 'good' resolutions in Convocation. In the last letter (19 January 1908) Halifax states that he has been talking to 'Mr Hall' about 'the matter in question', and that, while 'he could not of course pledge the Union to any constitution [.] he feels - as much as I do - and as you express in your letter, how entirely the object is one which the Union ought to help'.

4pp, 12mo. On four loose leaves. In fair condition, lightly aged and worn, with minor traces of grey paper mount along edges on blank reverses. The poem is titled 'The Dream of Fine Editors | (after the dinner to J. N. Dunn. April 23rd. 1897)'. (At the time of the dinner the Scottish journalist James Nicol Dunn (1856-1919) was o…n the verge of being appointed editor of the Morning Post, a position he would hold from May 1897 to January 1905.) There is no record of the poem having been published, and it is likely to have been written for after-dinner recitation only. It is 72 lines long, arranged in 18 quatrains. It begins: 'I dreamed I walked the Street of Bouverie | Where are pale lamps that mock the sable night, | "The Halfpenny John", Bradbury et cie | And also "Black & White"' | Walking, I heard a voice behind me say: | "Not vainly are my Hours and minutes spent. | I have a scheme a cert. - can't fail to pay | Three hundred pounds per cent."' The voice is that of the first of the five editors to appear to Pain in the poem, Charles Norris Williamson (1859-1920), editor of 'Black and White': 'fair, frock-coated, tall, | Sanguine, erratic, with enquiring eye | [] | 'Twas he the earliest figure of our past | Who sowed the seed whereof we reap the flow'r'. Williamson departs ('With pince-nez gleaming like an angel's smile | Went C. N. Williamson'), to be replaced by the editor of 'Chapman's Magazine of Fiction': 'O Oswald Crawfurd [(1834-1909)], courtly, consular, | With Fleet Street's maidens circling raind abait'. The third editor is an unnamed 'snappy man [] | And short and sharp barked out his little day; | In all the converse of the C. M. G. | Save that he didn't stay.' The fourth editor 'who stammered, stared with a lack-lustre eye' is also unnamed. He is a disreputable editor: 'Took his own stories, took his sister's too, | Likewise his cousin's, and his aunt's as well. | Sometimes we print them still we're forced to do - | But "Hell!" we murmur, "Hell!"' The final editor is Dunn himself: 'The one that bragged the least and did the most, | Yet left a weekly illustrated place | To take a morning post. | And as I spoke with him, the dream went by, | Through garden windows came the dawning sun | And I was Barry Pain, and knew that I | Had dined with J. N. Dunn'. The poem ends with Pain asking pardon for drinking from 'a strictly "private" bottle': 'Contrition's tear-drop on my eye-lid starts - | Partially drunk, but like the curate's egg, | "Quite excellent in parts"'. See Pain's entry in the Oxford DNB.

Typescript of the short story "The Legend of Stampede Mesa," a classic and often anthologized tale from Austin Texas writer and folklorist, John R. Craddock (1901-1933). Craddock was close with J. Frank Dobie who once wrote of him: "Of all the young men who have come under my eye. you by the genius of your imagination made a pro…founder impression upon me than any other." It was Dobie who first published Craddock's story inLegends of Texasin 1924 and again inChronicles of Oklahomathat same year. It has been collected as recently as 1998 inThe Best of Texas Folk and Folklore, 1916-1954. In the story, Craddock relays the legends he heard growing up of how Stampede Mesa in Blanco Canyon, Crosby County, TX got its name. The legend tells of a large herd and 2 cowboys that go over the side of a cliff in the middle of a night due to a stampede likely caused by a nester. The phantom herd and riders can still be seen in the area on dark nights. Tales such as this inspired the hit song by Stan Jones, "Ghost Riders in the Sky." An important manuscript of Texas folklore and legend. . 4 typed leaves, 14x8.5" with several type-over corrections. Green cover sheet with typed title and Craddock's name and address in manuscript, bound with a single brad in upper corner. Previous folds, pages and cover toned and with smudging, few edge tears. Very good.

FIRST EDITION, pp. 469, crown 8vo, original black cloth, backstrip lettering ghostly white, top edge sanguine, dustjacket a little nicked, some internal paper repair, principally to a horizontal tear at head of backstrip panel, the glorious design to the front panel by Mabel Lapthorn (see below) in excellent shape, very good. A…scarce book, this copy inscribed by the editor on the flyleaf: 'To R.N.G-A., With love and gratitude from Colin, May 4th 1931'. The recipient was Robert North Green-Armytage, a barrister and book-collector from Bath - whose collecting interests included Walter de la Mare, and who had cultivated a friendship with the family. The choice of poems in Faber's 1954 'Selected Poems' of Walter de la Mare' was made by Green-Armytage, whose other literary connections included being the uncle of Vivien Greene. Laid in, within its original envelope, is a 2pp. autograph letter from Colin de la Mare to the same, on the headed paper of his parents' home at Hill House in Taplow, thanking Green-Armytage for the invitation to speak at the Bath Preservation Society - joking (presumably) that he will only commit to such engagements if 'there is a Duke in the chair', and admitting that the idea caused him alarm, and 'I might have disgraced you'. He closes by inviting Green-Armytage to come to London to see Elisabeth Bergner in the film 'Der Traumende Mund', calling her 'the finest actress that I have ever seen', and with a post-scriptum in reference to the recipient's son, Adrian ('ask him to put me on to something "hot"!') - the latter a Merton friend of Louis MacNeice, and the author of a couple of books on religious themes. Colin de la Mare was Walter de la Mare's youngest son, aged only 25 when he edited this highly-regarded anthology - his relative youth may in part explain his reluctance towards public speaking. It is his only published literary work, to which he contributes a slender prefatory note, largely in acknowledgement, followed by his father's more substantial 23pp. exposition on its theme. Walter de la Mare also provides the contribution 'All Hallows'; other contributors include M.R. James, Lord Dunsany, Algernon Blackwood, William Hope Hodgson, Sheridan Le Fanu, Edith Wharton, E.F. Benson, Richard Middleton, J.D. Beresford, Oliver Onions, et al. The editor's elder brother Richard was for many years principal director at the book's publisher. Mabel Dickinson Lapthorn, the dustjacket designer, was a London-based artist, who gained a reputation for her film posters, and for her book cover-designs in England (these numbering only a few) and Amsterdam - where she was particularly associated with the work of Sigrid Undset for publisher J.M. Meulenhoff.
