'I shall be delighted if you can find out about the residence of Maurice & Robert Hall. It is not creditable to a great city like Bristol that these should not have been identif…ied.'

Pp. 165-196; both post 4to; printed pale orange paper wrappers, slightly soiled, edges lightly creased and split; uncut and partly unopened; a little light foxing; printed for subscribers only, London, 1892. Edit…ion limited to 250 copies on Dutch hand-made paper, printed by Richard Clay and Sons, Limited. See Todd 220b [for the complete set] and 221b [for the illustrations, 100 copies of which were issued separately in 1893 to supplement the bibliography]. *Two parts only of a set of 19 parts which were issued from 1889 to 1890. The work is primarily by James P. Smart, 'Wise's function being limited to the editing of commentary and the interpolating of 'new' material' [Todd]. Wise 'legitimized' some of his Ruskin forgeries by including them in his Ruskin bibliography. Barker & Collins, in A Sequel to an Inquiry [p. 135] describe this as 'the first sign of a new development: "dressing-up" a forgery by announcing its existence in print'.

See the various entries in the Oxford DNB. Typed carbon copy. 1p, foolscap 8vo. Text complete, on aged piece of carbon paper, worn and chipped at edges. No signature. Addressed at foot to 'E. F. Benson Esq.' Thirty-one lines of text. He begins by stating that Benson, in his 'work on Charlotte Brontë', has 'made a very correct st…udy of her'. After discussing a point about Branwell Bronte, he states: 'We cannot rely on Charlotte's assertion that he knew nothing whatever of their ventures in publishing. I am just busy preparing the "Life and Letters" for the Shakespeare Head edition, and have found from Charlotte's letters and other associated facts that she did not always tell the truth.' She describes the 'most glaring instance', concerning 'her references to Balzac's works', and adds that there are ' other instances of deceit in her correspondence with Ellen Nussey'. In the final paragraph he states that his 'old friend Mr. C. W. Hatfield [of the Bronte Society] will not hear a wrong word about Charlotte, and pleads with me to modify my editorial notes concerning the influence of Branwell, whilst my colleagues and editorial chief T. J. Wise is quite impartial, though he would like Charlotte's reputation upheld. In consequence of this I am venturing to send you the introductory portion (in rough galley form) of Chapter XIV in "Life and Letters" which I have headed "The Influence of Branwell." I wonder if you would be good enough to look this over and give me your opinion and criticism of it.'.

Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. Preface by Thomas J. Wise. With two unnumbered facsimile plates (Note: this edition seems to call for two plates replicating the first two pages of the manuscript, but the two plates in this copy both replicate the first page of the manuscript, possibly due to a publisher error). First editi…on. One of 30 copies. 47 pp. Unbound sheets, printed in black. Near fine, with a few small closed tears to pages, and occasional light soiling. Overall, a very scarce publication, with WorldCat locating only three copies. Housed in a green custom clamshell box. "Self-Communion" is a profound and soul-searching poem by Anne Brontë (Jan. 20, 1820 - May 28, 1849). In Thomas J. Wise's preface, he writes, "Self-Communion is not one of those juvenile efforts, written in a microscopic hand, which were produced in considerable numbers by Brontë children . . . The poem is, on the contrary, a mature effort. . ." Notably, a section of the poem is believed to make reference to the growing distance between Anne and her sister, Emily. Anne completed the poem in April of 1848, the same year that she finished writing her second and final novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Just one year later, at the age of 29, she passed away from tuberculosis. Thomas J. Wise (1859 - 1937) was a renowned bibliographer and book collector, whose Ashley Library was an important repository of English printed books and manuscripts. He was also a notorious forger, whose illegal activities were first exposed by John W. Carter and Henry Graham Pollard in An Enquiry into the Nature of Certain Nineteenth Century Pamphlets (1937).
