‎George Colman the Younger (1762-1836), English dramatist, joint-manager of the Haymarket Theatre, London, with Thomas Harris:‎

‎Initialled corrected Autograph Copy by George Colman the Younger for his brother-in-law David Morris of a letter to S. J. Arnold written during Colman's chancery dispute with Morris his business partner at the Haymarket Theatre London.‎

‎'7 March 1815 Melina Place Westr Road'. 1p. 4to. 31 lines. Fair on aged paper. On paper with watermarked date of 1814. Initialled 'G. C.'; with the words 'Copy to Morris' in the top left-hand corner. Docketed on reverse 'Copy to Morris March 1815'. Colman writes that is is now his intention 'as it ever has been to use every effort in my power for the interest of the Theatre by carrying on the business in the best manner that the continual obstacles opposed to my plans will permit'. He states that he is 'in treaty with various Performers for the approaching Summer'. This enables him to communicate 'propositions' to the recipient and 'Mr Winston'. The second paragraph reads: 'In adopting this only measure you have left me according to the Deed of Ownership I request you to bear in mind that should I be as much impeded in my endeavours as in the Year 1813 the same causes will produce the same ruinous effects.' Should the recipient and Winston prevent Colman's 'formation of an entire last word underlined company of performers . the Theatre must once more in spite of all my struggles - to the contrary remain shut for the Summer'. The fourth paragraph concerns the "instruments" of the stage manager. The Oxford DNB notes that Colman was 'involved in a protracted chancery dispute from 1809 to 1816 with his business partner and brother-in-law David Morris' and that he resided within the King's Bench Rules between 1806 and 1817 at the instigation of 'S. J. Arnold the son of Dr Samuel Arnold the well-known composer from whom Colman had borrowed significant sums'. '7 March 1815 | Melina Place Westr Road'. unknown‎

‎George Dyer (1755-1841), poet and radical, leading English Jacobin, in circle of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Godwin, Lamb; David Steu‎

‎George Dyer poet and English Jacobin writes to the Earl of Buchan following a visit to his seat Dryburgh Abbey Berwickshire. Substantial Autograph Letter Signed 'G Dyer' discussing the preparation of his volume of poems and other topics.‎

‎Cambridge. Undated but written shortly before the publication of his poems in 1801. 3pp. 4to. Bifolium. In good condition lightly aged with thin stub from mount neatly adhering. A long closely written letter of 116 lines including eight-line postscript at head of first page. Addressed by Dyer on reverse of second leaf: 'To Lord Buchan Dryburgh Abbey Berwickshire Scotland.' Buchan has annotated the reverse of the second leaf: 'George Dyer Characteristic while I reasoned with George Dyer in my Library at Dryburgh Abbey on the Economy of Nature and the Providence of God I said Heaven itself will one day bear witness to my Words. At the instant there was a flash of Lightning so vivid as to deprive us for a moment of Sight This . subject for Poetry' latter part obscured by stub. Both men have interesting entries in the Oxford DNB. Dyer's entry stresses his eccentricity of which the present letter is indeed 'Characteristic'. The main topic is Dyer's obsessive belief that his conversation has in some way offended Buchan and 'given very undesignedly some offence to my friends in Scotland'. Dyer also discusses the preparation for publication of privately-printed 'Poems' of 1801 whose 'Ode XXXIX' is titled 'After visiting Dryburgh Abbey in Berwickshire the Seat of Lord and Lady Buchan'. The poem carries the following footnote: 'This delightful spot now the residence of Lord and Lady Buchan was formerly a monastery. In a part of the chapel are now placed the busts of our English poets. Lord Buchan is well known as a man of letters.' The florid opening paragraph of the letter starts: 'Kind Sir It is unpleasant to write and no less unpleasant to read letters of apology: they move heavily and leave behind nothing worth remembering. The writer feels like a prisoner at the bar and if conscious of crime recollection of civilities received he finds painful and without waiting for the decision of the judge he confesses himself worthy of punishment.' The second paragraph sets out Dyer's specific concerns: 'I intended writing to you from Berwick and to acknowlege sic your civilities to me when at Kelso: but I thought it expedient afterwards to defer writing till after I had been at Richmond more particularly as my mind at the time was quite occupied with poetical reveries though I said nothing on the subject to my ingenious and sensible fellow-traveller. On my arrival in London I expecterd to receive letters from Dr. Anderson the author and editor Dr Robert Anderson 1750-1830 who like Buchan was a member of the American Antiquarian Society to be conveyed to sic me under cover to James Marten: one was to have been a letter to Park from Dr. Anderson as a kind of introductory letter. From Park I expected to hear every thing relative to the Richmond business: but I waited in vain for letters and knew nothing concerning the place for solemnizing the birth-day of Thompson. I was extremely puzzled to account for this silence and was at length unhappy fearful that I had given very undesignedly some offence to my friends in Scotland: I have however since recd: letters perfectly satisfactory from Dr. Anderson and others: having however no letter to Park and the birth day of Thompson having passed by unnoticed I was perplexed and knew not what to say to you.' He gives the gist of a speech made by Buchan 'when I had the pleasure of seeing you at Dryburgh' on the subject of acknowledging the giving of pain by ones words and confesses: 'Now Sir I did recollect having made two speeches of this kind and though probably you may not recollect them or indeed might not have noticed them at the time yet the recollection of them gave pain to me.' He explains at length how he 'wished to apologize' but 'knew not what to say or how to begin'. But now Buchan's 'very civil letter' has 'removed my suspicions that he has given offence and increased my respect for you.' Again he had wished to answer immediately but could not get a frank: 'I had not an opportunity of getting the name of an M.P. as the friends who are kind enough to favour me with their names occasionally were not in town'. He has been 'pedestrianizing backwards & forwards to Cambridge time insensibly stole away … and therefore now write to you from Cambridge though I have no M.P. at hand'. After further apologies and explanations he praises Buchan's 'delightful retreat of Dryburgh Abbey and the learned Hermit residing there' adding: 'you may rest assured yourself that I shall not forget them in my poems ere long to be published. I am at present quite enslaved to Poetry. I am just ready with a volume of poems in which I shall not be forgetful of the hospitality of sic natural beauty of Scotland: The Muse however is obliged to give way for a reason and a violent head-ach a bad substitute supplies its place: a pain which I assure you is not diminished by contemplating the contents of this letter.' He hopes he will have 'the pleasure of revisiting Dryburgh at some future opportunity when I shall be in better spirits than I am at present and when I may be able to express in person what I now do by letter viz: that I have a high sense of your civility and worth.' He may return to Dryburgh with his 'particular' friend James Ramsay Cuthbert of neighbouring Ednam. He has 'delivered' Buchan's 'remembrance to Laetitia. Barbauld D. Gregory & Dr. Tytler' and hopes to see him on his return to town. In the concluding paragraph he states that he has delivered Buchan's 'papers to the Editor of the Monthly Magazine: they as yet have not I perceive made their appearance but owing to no neglect of mine. I delivered them immediately on coming to London: one indeed is I believe precluded from being inserted there as having been published before: the other will I doubt not appear next month'. At the end of the letter Dyer declares that he holds 'some peculiarities of sentiment' and in the postscript he expresses the hope that he will be 'in better spirits' if he has 'occasion to write again to Dryburgh … on a more agreeable topic'. He ends with reference to his 'fellow traveller J. Leyden who was kind enough to accompany me from Edinburgh to Newcastle is very clever; as also is your neighbour Landie the son of the Dissenting minister'. Accompanying the letter is an engraving of Dyer by Henry Meyer from a drawing by 'Miss Beetham' 'Published by Mathews & Leigh 1809'. In good condition in windowpane mount. Cambridge. Undated, but written shortly before the publication of his poems in 1801. unknown‎
