réf. 237137 June 1875. On letterhead of the Athenaeum Club London. 2pp 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition lightly aged. Folded twice. Clearly and firmly written. The letter would appear to concern an individual who is threatening to resign his membership of the Athenaeum Club and ends with reference to proxy voting for new members. Hughes begins by reporting that he has 'already written to the good but peppery & impulsive Dr. of whom I am as fond as you are'. He cannot 'make out quite what his intentions are but fear it is not at all off the cards that we may lose him this time though I believe it is by no means the first time that he has made a similar effort'. Hughes will 'certainly lubricate him & his gallery on Friday' and will do anything else Bricknell suggests as he would 'very heartily regret losing him'. He concludes with reference to 'the proxies' considering that there is no 'danger of defeat at this time'. 7 June 1875. On letterhead of the Athenaeum Club [London]. unknown
réf. 22423ONE: 3 March 1884; 52 Promenade Southport Lancashire on letterhead of the County Courts Circuit No. 9 Chester. TWO: 30 November 1885. On letterhead of Uffington House Chester. Both items in good condition lightly aged. ONE: 3 March 1884. 1p 12mo. Addressed to 'Dear Mr. Kynnersley'. Having received Kynnersley's undated letter he writes: 'I shall meet Blandford as you propose on the 11th. with very great pleasure. He was one of the heroes on whom I used to look with awe as a 3rd. form boy in 1834 in which year I joined & he I think left Rugby.' He is sitting at Congleton on the day of the meeting and 'there is just a chance that some perverse suitor may be in full blast at my train time in which case as I never leave a cause part heard I may be late'. He ends by urging him not to wait 'as we can sit into the short hours at the other end of the symposium if we are not talked out'. TWO: 30 November 1885. 2pp 12mo. Begins: 'Dear Kynnersley Can you help me or tell me how to help myself We have taken as housemaid an excellent woman deserted by a rascal husband who has left her with one child a boy of 10 to support. We can't keep her permanently unless this boy can leave school & are quite ready to take him on at once & train him if he can be let come to us - He can read & write quite fairly but having been moved from pillar to post since the escapade of his sire is only in the 2nd. standard. If he has to stop till he is 13 or in the 4th standard of course it will be out of the question & they must be thrown on the world again but won't this do' He continues with a proposal to take on the boy's schooling 'as our youngest girl of 18 who has just left Holland's Ch. of England High School in Marylebone where she was in whatever answers there to the sixth is yearning for some pupil to perform upon & is a thoroughly trustworthy young person'. He continues with plans for the boy's education before asking: 'Have you jurisdiction or to whom should I apply for the necessary leave' He now gives a very clear exposition of his political views in the light of the demise of the 'Three Acres and a Cow' land reform 'Radical Programme' of the MP for Birmingham Joseph Chamberlain 1836-1914: 'I don't know how you feel but I am not sorry that Chamberlain & Co. are getting a lesson. They were on the high road to attempt to undo all that we Cooperators have been laboriously building up amongst the working classes for these 30 years - self reliance & abstention from state aid of all shapes now that at last the Law allows them a perfectly fair field to work out their own well being - just as the proof of their power to do this is established & they are ready to use their large accumulations in productive works & investments in land for cooperative farming come your unspeakable fellow townsmen or are you not a Birmingham man preaching state aid & ransom by the rich of their prosperity! But I begin to hope they are dished for my time.' ONE: 3 March 1884; 52 Promenade, Southport, Lancashire, on letterhead of the County Courts, Circuit No. 9, Chester. TWO: 30 Nove unknown

In fair condition lightly aged with two small labels used as mounts still adhering. Annotated at the head of the first page in a small light hand dating the letter by reference to Arnold's 'Memoirs' and explaining that the letter is written 'To Mrs. Arnold who gave me this from Her dear hand Autumn 1860'. For the context of the letter see the Memoirs 'Appendix C. VIII. Tour in the South of France'. The letter begins: 'My dearest Mary We arrived here at three o' Clock this Afternoon and are off in the Steam Boat for Roignon tomorrow Morning at 5. - Our Window looks across the Saone to the Cathedral of N. D. de Fourvieres on the Top of the Hill. - It is a magnificent Town but the Heat here as every where is overpowering.' He predicts that the following day 'will be a cool and I expect a very interesting Day'. He will be interested to know 'what weather you have had in Westmoreland for fine Weather there is truly enjoyable and you need not fear the Sun'. Referring to the 'Lyon Tablet' he writes: 'We have just been out a little after Dinner & have seen the famous Plate containing the Speech of Claudius about giving the Freedom of Rome to the Gauls. - It is preserved here in the Museum. We have now come to the End of my Knowledge and I suppose that I shall enlarge my Knowledge a little but Naples I think is out of the Question and probably so also will Voltura sic for 'Volterra' be.' The recto ends here with the words 'But our .'. The verso begins: '… rather too hot – We have today clearly seen the whole Group of the Avergne Mountains in the Distance and their Outline is exceedingly no word follows. I succeeded in getting a Sketch of them as we drove along – besides seeing the Clermont Chain we have had a most hilly days Journey for we have crossed the Chain of Hills whose exact Height I do not know but where we went was more than 1500 so that the highest Peaks must be at least 3000. The Country would have been beautiful if it had not been so burnt up that it was all one Brown Colour together'. He describes how on 'the first Evening after leaving Paris we slept at Ponthiery – where the Salon was hung with Pictures of the Westmoreland Lakes – the next day we passed through the Forest of Fontainebleau which was most beautiful but as I have described it full length in my Journal and have not now much Time I shall pass it over'. The extract on the verso concludes with a description of a night at 'Briare on the Loire' and his making of a sketch and the words: 'Today we have had an easy Day - .' 'Lyons, July 18th.
