réf. 417371847-1938 American Author and Illustrator sending "a thousand thanks gracious Lady for your letter. We cherish your kind words which reached us this morning after our first night of 'snuffles'. My mother was attempting to convince us it was not pneumonia and quite usual and harmless when your testimony arrived. You will agree they sound serious won't you Our little maiden sends you love asking your pardon if she makes too bold and hopes to welcome you one day to her very own home. Which we think of a Naulakha. 'Crows Nest' was invented by that all wise newspaper man who knows all one does not do or think or feel. Your interest in Benefits Forgot touches us nearly for my brother cared so much that you should feel it to be an honest-word about the West. We used to arrange to make a pilgrimage to have a talk with you about the great delightful dreadful West. We know Colorado best and it was once while we were spending a few months there that Benefits Forgot was planned but it was worked out in London. On the whole London is nearer the West than New York it has always seemed to me. If I had been feeling up to rough travelling we should have returned from Vancouver slowly through all that fascinating part of our land my husband is more anxious to know it well than any other part of America. The daughter - we call her Josephine - thrives is strong and sturdy and we mean to keep her in the country so she may continue so. She has an English nurse who promises well - she wrote to ask for the position. I don't expect you the credit the Statement for I well know its a fairy story in appearance. She can't have the baby nights though because of the cold - if only she could. I am learning to keep awake and my husband to sleep but it was not easy. We are very quiet here and go to bed at eight ourselves often." 4 sides 8vo. on black edged paper Brattleboro 19th February Foote is best known for her illustrated short stories and novels portraying life in the mining communities of the turn-of-the-century American West and for her illustrations of Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and Longfellow's poems. Benefits Forgot was a novel published in 1895 co-written by Rudyard Kipling and his brother-in-law Charles Wolcott BALESTIER 1861-1891. He was an American Author and Publisher who visited England in 1888 to secure English manuscripts for Lovell the publishing company which had published his novel A Fair Device 1886. He is remembered for his collaboration with Rudyard Kipling. He wrote the American chapters for The Naulahka 1892 and Kipling dedicated his Barrack-Room Ballads to him in the same year. Caroline met Kipling via her brother. She had come to London to keep house and serve as hostess for him. She taught Kipling how to use a typewriter. When Wolcott Balestier died suddenly of typhoid in 1891 Kipling was distraught and spent time with Miss Balestier proposing to her via telegram and marrying her a week later. The couple were married in London on January 18th 1892. The bride was given away by Henry James who exclaimed "It's a union of which I don't forecast the future." The first child Josephine was born on 29th December 1892 and died at the age of 6 on 6th March 1899 of pneumonia. Kipling's friends and family maintain that he was never the same after Josie's death. unknown

réf. 06200Burwash Sussex: 1920. I Like It Very Much" Rudyard Kipling Critiques a Poem by "The Bath Railway Poet" A Fine Two-Page Autograph Letter Signed to Henry Chappell With the Original Autograph Envelope and Portrait KIPLING Rudyard 1865-1936. Autograph letter signed "Rudyard Kipling" to Henry Chappell the celebrated "Bath Railway Poet" discussing Chappell's poem The Chaplet and suggesting a possible place of publication. Bateman's Burwash Sussex February 7 1920. Two octavo pages written in ink on a single folded sheet of Kipling's headed stationery printed "BURWASH / ETCHINGHAM" and "BATEMAN'S / BURWASH / SUSSEX." Dated in Kipling's hand "Feb. 7. 1920" and marked "Private" at the head. Signed at the conclusion "Rudyard Kipling." Together with the original autograph addressed envelope addressed by Kipling to: "Henry Chappell Esq. G.W. Ry. Station Bath Somerset" and initialed by him "RK" at lower left. Mounted framed and glazed double-sided together with a photographic portrait of Kipling and an engraved brass plaque "RUDYARD KIPLING 1865-1936 Author." Photograph approximately 9 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches 241 x 190 mm. Overall frame size 16 3/4 x 20 5/8 inches 425 x 524 mm. A particularly appealing literary letter from Rudyard Kipling to fellow poet Henry Chappell offering both praise and criticism of Chappell's verse and practical advice concerning its publication. Kipling writes thanking Chappell for sending him his poem The Chaplet. He tells him that he likes the poem "very much" though with the characteristically forthright reservation "barring 'hauteur' in the first verse." He then turns from literary criticism to the practical question of publication telling Chappell: "I don't know exactly what would be a good place to publish it in just now - unless perhaps you tried the Express." The recommendation was especially appropriate. Chappell had achieved national recognition through the publication in the Daily Express of his patriotic poem The Day shortly after the outbreak of the First World War. Contemporary accounts identify Chappell as a railway porter at Bath and record that The Day appeared in the Daily Express on August 22 1914. The second page concludes with Kipling's warm good wishes and his full autograph signature "Rudyard Kipling." The letter is considerably more interesting than a routine Kipling note. It reveals Kipling acting as a fellow craftsman and informal literary adviser: reading Chappell's poem closely enough to object to a particular word in its opening verse nevertheless praising the work as a whole and suggesting where the younger poet might seek publication. Henry CHAPPELL 1874-1937 was a poet and railwayman who became widely known as "The Bath Railway Poet." Working as a railway porter at Bath he attracted widespread attention following the appearance of The Day in the Daily Express in August 1914. The poem was subsequently reproduced and circulated widely establishing Chappell's reputation well beyond the railway community. The present letter provides an appealing connection between two very different literary careers: Kipling Nobel laureate and one of the most famous English writers of his generation and Chappell the working railwayman whose wartime verse had unexpectedly brought him national attention. Joseph Rudyard KIPLING 1865-1936 was born in Bombay and became one of the most celebrated English writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His works include The Jungle Book 1894 The Second Jungle Book 1895 Kim 1901 and Just So Stories for Little Children 1902 as well as such celebrated poems as "Mandalay" "Gunga Din" "Recessional" and "If -." In 1907 he became the first English-language writer to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Burwash, Sussex: , 1920 unknown
