FREEMAN
(Edward Augustus, 1823-1892, Historian)
Autograph Letter Signed to Mrs Malleson
sending a "cheque for £20 at my daughter's request. I hardly know what to say about advertising. I have done the whole of my own work without advertising, publishing lists of subscriptions, or anything of the kind. I have always disliked it and thought it ostentatious. Yet some say that it practically pays, and that the advertised subscriptions attract others. I have no kind of notion what it would cost. At any rate the repeated mentions of me might be all rolled into one and it should be made plain that it is merely gathered by me - not all my own giving. Where would you advertise if you do? The Times, I suppose. I have no practise in such things ...", 2 sides 8vo., Somerleaze, Wells, Somerset, 9th November
