Leaf A4 recto: 'In memoriam C.T.W. sometime trooper of the Royal Horse Guards. Obiit H.M. Prison Reading Berkshire July 7th 1896.' Oscar Wilde was incarcerated in Reading Gaol after being convicted of gross indecency with other men and sentenced to 2 years hard labour in prison. He wrote The Ballad of Reading Gaol in exile after his release.The ballad narrates the execution of fellow prison inmate Charles Thomas Wooldridge who had been a trooper in the Royal Horse Guards. He had been convicted of cutting his wife�s throat. The finished ballad was published in February 1898 under the name C.3.3 which stood for cell block 3 landing 3 and cell 3 - Wilde�s cell. This ensured that Wilde�s name by then notorious did not appear on the ballad�s front cover. The first edition of 800 copies sold out in a week. The publisher announced that a second edition would be ready the following week. That was printed in 1000 copies which also sold quickly. Further editions followed but it wasn�t until the 7th edition that it was confirmed that Oscar Wilde was the author.

Despite Siemens being the one credited for the invention Wilde was the first to publish a paper describing it; this was communicated to the Royal Society by Michael Faraday in 1866.Joseph Sidebotham 1824-1882 was the first to practice photography in Manchester and of the most important local photographers in general.
