Begins: ‘Dear Rev Sir / Glad to see you took up the “cudgels†on behalf of the “Ulster Scot.â€â€™ The writer of the letter considers that the part played by this group ‘in building industry &c.’ was surpassed by their efforts ‘in cristainising sic and civilising the nations of the world’. Descending into sectarianism he continues: ‘The Roman Catholic Hierarchy judging from their public speeches would have us believe the very opposite. Like many another Scott I read with delight your article to the “Times†and on behalf of myself and others I return you my sincerest thanks’. TWO: Unsigned Note 1p 8vo addressed from ‘19 Sutton Court Road. / London. Chiswick. W.’ Clearly written by Roman Catholic businessman W. Vance Packman who corresponded from this address at the time.

23784Undated but written in 1883. Addressed in autograph at head: ‘Dutton Cook / 69 Gloucester Crescent. N.W’. For information on Cook see his biography in the Oxford DNB which points out that the subtlety of his later fiction was lost on his contemporaries being written in a style that ‘was not sufficiently sensational’ for the period. The present item is the complete text of the last thing Cook ever wrote: a story which appeared in the weeks following his death in Hood’s Comic Annual for 1884 London 1883. On 3 November 1883 the ‘Bookseller’ quoted the review of the volume in the magazine ‘Fun’: ‘a melancholy interest attaches to the article “Columbines all of a Row†from the fact that it was the last production of the late Mr. Dutton Cook having been completed only a few days before his death’. The Graphic praised the story’s ‘charming intermingling of pathos and humour’. 12pp landscape 12mo. The holograph is written in a close stylized hand in purple ink on twelve 11.5 x 18 cm leaves attached with a brass stud. In good condition lightly aged. Addressed in autograph at top-right of first page: ‘Dutton Cook / 69 Gloucester Crescent. N.W’ and signed at end ‘Dutton Cook’. With autograph emendations throughout but evidently a final draft: the tenth and eleventh leaves have both been divided into two parts with neat vertical cutting and reunited on the reverse with paper labels with the section created by this division indicated by numbering in another hand in pencil in the margins. The story is divided by Cook into nine parts with roman numerals. Undated, but written in 1883. Addressed in autograph at head: ‘Dutton Cook / 69 Gloucester Crescent. N.W’. unknown
