The other 9 letters are addressed to another member of the Brushfield family. His letter of 27th September 1875 thanks him for sending a copy of the "Metropolitan with the portrait of your father.To me there is a somewhat coarse common and low look if I may so express myself re the portrait." and continues at length as to how a better portrait may be produced or even a parian bust - "I have just arranged . to do a bust of my dear old friend S.C.Hall whose name you will know" and continues that he is preparing a memoir of Brushfield's father for the next number of the 'Reliquary'His letter of 30th January 1876 to Dr. Brushfield expresses great alarm on reading of his narrow escape from "the attack made upon you". That of 28th September 1881 refers to a book on Gloucestershire his own 'Half Hours among English Antiquities' and sings the praises of Devonshire congratulating him upon his retirement to Budleigh SaltertonThe remaining 9 letters 45-sides 1865-1881 are perhaps to Brushfield's brother and concern heraldry various books family matters and that he is "grieved but not surprised at what you tell me regarding the Reverend delinquent. It is grievous to see a minister of religion so forget himself" and much else on the subject. unknown‎

‎1941 - 1943 ORIGINAL WORLD WAR II MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF WAR SERVICE WITHIN BESEECHING PRAYERS SOULFUL CONFESSION AND PERHAPS SUPPRESSED HOMOSEXUALITY HANDWRITTEN BY THE AUSTRALIAN YMCA REPRESENTATIVE IN THE MIDDLE EAST‎

‎PALESTINE EGYPT THE HOLYLAND PRE WAR ISRAEL. Good. 1941. On offer is an original absolutely fascinating 1941 - 1943 World War II manuscript diary handwritten by Mr. J.G. Manning the Australian YMCA representative in Palestine. The YMCA was dedicated to providing the armed services with many services critical to moral to soldiers throughout the world. Manning writes over 200 pages of entries starting 25th November 1941 in Palestine going to Egypt then Libya back to Palestine then to Sydney and Brisbane then to New Guinea and ending on 10 March 1943. Besides the fact that Manning's perspective of the War as an Australian representative of the YMCA is in itself unique what makes this diary so uncommon in our experience is the fact that Manning's diary is a history of his war experience observations and thoughts within a religious confessional on the paper upon which he writes. Every day he writes a prayer every day he cries out to his Creator every day he prays for hope health safety and strength and a hundred other things. He constantly uses the word 'surrendered' as he surrenders himself to his duty to God and he surrenders himself to his way of life he surrenders himself to his responsibilities. He constantly writes of his love and prayers for his wife and boys but a number of times he writes of surrendering himself to certain feelings. The mention of a number of men in his circle within the same entry leads us to believe that he was desperately trying to suppress homosexual feelings and in many ways was suppressing his feelings with his religious devotions.
