Thomas Arnold the Younger [ Tom Arnold ] (1823-1900), Professor at University College, Dublin, son of the headmaster of Rugby ScBiblio.com

Thomas Arnold the Younger. Autograph Letter Signed 'T. Arnold' to Rev. R. Hutchinson regarding the views of St Augustine on 'Perseverance and Predestination' and 'the good works of the heathen'.

18743Laleham The Parks. 22 December 1872. Laleham on Thames Middlesex now Surrey. . 4pp. 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition on lightly aged and worn paper. Arnold whose conversion to Roman Catholicism hindered his academic dvancement in England was grandfather of the writer Aldous Huxley and taught James Joyce at Dublin. At the time of writing he was running a private tutoring establishment at Oxford. He begins the letter by explaining that it has hardly been possible to reply to Hutchinson 'during term time . I had so much work on my hands'. He is returning 'Canon Bright's letter' and has 'not had time to look at the treatises on Perseverance and Predestination'. He has however 'read some way into the Epistle to Sixtus and can find in it nothing like a denial of free will on human merit though this last also he ascribes to an effect of the divine grace. Why some are saved and others lost he cannot tell; he calls the whole subject a "difficillima quaestio" .'. He continues with a number of Latin quotations including one from a letter to Abbot Valentine of Adrumetum noting that 'St Austin' was 'misunderstood in his own day as he often is in ours'. He continues: 'With such passages as these to enlighten one as to the Saint's real meaning may one not well feel reluctant unless a whole string of predestinarian in the bad sense passages were adduced from his writings to admit that he fell into or countenanced error' He ends with a discussion of 'the good works of the heathen'.

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. [no year]' unknown

Wavell Wakefield, Politician and rugby player:Biblio.com

Wavell Wakefield Politician and rugby player Three Typed Letters Signed one Autograph Poem Signed and Two Typed Letters signed by his Private Secretary.

2527All five Typed Letters on House of Commons notepaper 1961-2; the poem April 1962. Politician and rugby player DNB. The five letters all one page 16mo and each with two staple holes and in good condition. The autograph poem is on a printed bifoliate menu for the Cricket Society Spring Dinner 6 April 1962 16mo slightly discoloured. The letters relate to various Cricket Society Dinners. He agrees to attend the 1961 Spring Dinner at the Lords Tavern but his private secretary P. Barling declines on his behalf an invitation to the autumn dinner as he is out of the country recovering from an operation. In the third letter he accepts an invitation to the 1962 Spring Dinner at the Royal Horticultural New Hall and the fourth letter is from Barling on the same subject. In the fifth letter he explains that he has had to undergo an operation and cannot attend the dinner after all. The poem on the menu reads 'To think that many years ago We danced together with gusto in gay Paree when we were young enjoying life with dance & song You still are young in looks & heart Just as you were in your life's start.' An unremarkable printed poem by G. D. Martineau called 'The Crown' on the reverse of the second leaf of the menu has received eleven emendations in pen possibly not by Wakefield. These have given it a rather gay feel e.g. 'Sohos lights' 'strange delights' and 'it was no sin'. All five Typed Letters on House of Commons notepaper, 1961-2; the poem April 1962. unknown
