ref. 22270Without date or place. 1p 12mo. Seventeen lines of closely written text. In fair condition lightly aged and worn laid down on a leaf from an album. The recipient is not named but is addressed as 'Monsieur le Comte'. The letter concerns the count's 'ami et protégé' 'M. Leharivel' author of 'Grammaire Francaise Pasigraphique Simplifiee Et Regularisee Pour Servir de Base Fondamentale; Et Anecdotes Et Contes Historiques 1839 . Nodier is pleased that his 'Suffrage' has been useful to Leharivel but he has to explain that Leharivel is mistaken on the question of the place at the Academy Francaise which has fallen vacant on the death of 'M. Michand' i.e. the historian Joseph Michaud who had died 30 September 1839. This 'classe de l'Institut' has no corresponding members and as Leharivel is based in Belgium he is not eligible. Nodier would have conveyed this information to the count in person but he is burdened with work. This letter was in a notebook containing letters addressed to this Le Harivel. Without date or place. unknown

In what is a quite unusual and somewhat flirtatious response to a fan letter he thanks her for her 'kind letter about my books' adding: 'it is pleasing to know that they cheer you when things go wrong; and I trust that the next time you get lost you will have one with you to cheer your solitary way.' He continues: 'It is evident that if they have this agreeable effect on you that though there may be some difference in our ages there can be very little in our spirits; & I should be charmed if next time you are in London you would come to see me – in the morning.' He explains that he writes in the morning and is 'always grateful to any one who interrupts me and prevents me from injuring my constitution by industrious excess' For the recipient Barbara Kaye Barbara Kenrick Gowing 1908-1998 writer bookseller and wife of Percy Muir see her obituary by Nicolas Barker in the Independent 12 March 1998. 120 Adelaide Road, Chalk Farm, London NW3. 8 July 1920. unknown
