Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice older book in good condition. Some tanning wear and marking due to age. Year 1884. Hardcover. English. See images for condition. About the book >.>.> The pages of autobiography which follow deal only with that part of Mrs. Bray's life which preceded the present generation. The natural task of her Editor would perhaps seem to be, to supplement her narrative by an account of her later years. But, partly through the attenuated (indeed, almost annihilated) ranks of the friends of her youth who could answer to the roll-call after the lapse of over ninety years; partly through the secluded manner of her life, which gave her but little opportunity or inclination to form new acquaintances, the circle of those who knew her in-timately is now an extremely limited one. I have therefore thought it best to introduce, rather than to close her own story, by a short sketch of her as she lived among us during the last thirty years. I hope thus to enable the reader better to read between the lines of this record of a quiet literary life. (SP).…

Both items in good condition, lightly aged and worn. ONE: 22 September 1856. 4pp., 12mo. Bifolium. Docketted: 'Revd J. E. Kempe about Annie's XG. & Tait, new Bp of London | Sep 1856'. After discussing arrangements for meeting he turns to Tait, about to be consecrated Bishop of London. 'You ask about our new Bishop. I have reason to think it an excellent appointment. Great administrative ability, a remarkable talent for business, indefatigable industry, most conciliatory manners, a total freedom from party of any kind, considerable learning, and great piety - these are the qualities which I am assured by those who know him are united in Dr. Tait. The only doubt seems to be as to his physical strength.' He discusses his examining chaplain, likely to be 'A. P.?> Stanley, and is pleased at 'the prospect of an occupant of London House who is able, amiable & a gentleman. For some time I was trembling lest "Dean of Carlisle" should be a mis-print for "Bishop"!!'

He has been 'tantalized by the offer of Cartwell - the Lakes - Morecambe Bay &c &c.'.…

He continues, "The Toxophilus of Ascham by the bye should be used by every antiquary at least once in his life - | Independent of Archery it is an excellent Book - he is the Walton of his favourite sport [signature folllowed by Postscript] Your proof will find me at [address of a John Robinson in Milton near Gravesend given, and he concludes], "I recd Southey's book of the Church [.].
