1860réf. 50276London 1860. London 30 June 1860. Bifolium. 4pp. 180 x 111 mm. A few pin-holes but fine otherwise. From English physiologist and naturalist William B. Carpenter who "helped shape the modern life sciences in Britain Oxford DNB through both his writings and his work as a teacher and administrator at what is now the University of London. Carpenter performed valuable researches in marine zoology and was directly influential in persuading the British Admiralty to sponsor the Challenger expedition the first major scientific study of the deep oceans. Carpenter is also recognized as one of the founders of the modern theory of the adaptive unconscious-he observed that the human perceptual system and the mechanism of human thought operates almost completely outside of conscious awareness. Carpenter's correspondent was the police magistrate and author John Paget. "I cannot let Mrs. Carpenter be the only one to express our hearty appreciation of the kind feeling on the part of Mrs. Paget and yourself by which the beautiful gift which we had the pleasure of receiving from you yesterday has been prompted as well as our admiration of the combined elegance and utility of the gift itself. Since its arrival Mrs. Carpenter has for the first time informed me that she had been taken into your counsels in the matter; and I am very glad that without any intention of her own your gift should have taken a form that so appropriately made her a participator in it. For her interest in Guy and her constant solicitude for his welfare have been as I need scarcely tell you in no degree inferior to my own. It gives us both great pleasure to have so substantial an expression of the satisfaction felt by Mrs. Paget and yourself in what we have endeavoured to do for him; and we trust with her that the influences and associations of early years may be pleasantly and usefully kept up on both sides by the continued friendship of our boys as they advance in life. With kindest wishes for the welfare and happiness of Mrs. Paget yourself and your family believe me Dear Mr. Paget always yours most sincerely William B. Carpenter." . unknown

On the death of his mother-in-law: I feel sure that you will be sadly interested in learning that we received two days ago the unexpected intelligence of the death of Mrs. Powell which took place quite suddely on the night of the 30th. She had been failing for some time and seemed to suffer much from disappointment in regard to the affair of the pension having a great wish to be independent of the assistance of her friends and strongly desiring that her father's service to the nation should be acknowledged . . . There was not the least indication of suffering quite the contrary . . . So that I quite believe that she must have passed from the unconsciousness of sleep into that of death. For her and for all those who were interested for her I am satisfied that this will be felt the most desirable termination . . . . unknown

1879réf. 41099London 1879. Carpenter William B. 1813-85. Autograph letter signed to Mr. John Paget 1811-98. London 56 Regents Part Rd. N.W. June 2 1879. 4pp. 178 x 114 mm. A few tiny pin-holes but fine otherwise. From English physiologist and naturalist William B. Carpenter who "helped shape the modern life sciences in Britain Oxford DNB through both his writings and his work as a teacher and administrator at what is now the University of London. Carpenter performed valuable researches in marine zoology and was directly influential in persuading the British Admiralty to sponsor the Challenger expedition the first major scientific study of the deep oceans. Carpenter is also recognized as one of the founders of the modern theory of the adaptive unconscious-he observed that the human perceptual system and the mechanism of human thought operates almost completely outside of conscious awareness. Carpenter's letter which discusses a false confession to murder made by a mentally unbalanced young man reads in part as follows: Dear Mr. Paget In turning out my papers at the University today I have come upon a document which I forward to you containing the Father's statement of his Son's relation to the "Brompton Murder" case with full particulars of the latter's confession and its inconsistency with the facts. I believe that I did not send in this to the Home Secy.; but that what I specially urged upon him was the evidence with which Knowles had supplied me of the "cracky" nature of the youth's mind and of the obviously hereditary tendency to brood as shown in the father and aunt-the latter an old servant of Knowles. And I remember also that there was evidence of the youth having had money in the Savings Bank and of his having drawn out a pound just before the Crystal Palace Police Fête. This altogether made so strong an impression on Mr. Bruce that he at once commuted the sentence; and the family were so sensible that the lad was not fit to take care of himself that they expressed no disappointment at his not having received a free pardon. . . . Carpenter's correspondent was the police magistrate and author John Paget whose Paradoxes and Puzzles published in 1874 included accounts of a number of sensational crimes. We have not been able to identify the murder case to which Carpenter refers in his letter. . unknown
