RADCLYFFE-HALL
(Marguerite Antonia, 1880-1943, Novelist & Poet)
Fine Autograph Letter Signed to Mrs Frances,
explaining that her “reason for not writing sooner is a good one - I am working again. But now I must tell you how perfectly ripping I think the Show Card for A.B. I never saw a more effective card, so much so that I think it would be a good stroke of business to send it to all London books Shops, these holiday folk are going to collect books. Such people often like a book that deals in some way with the country, I think. Please send it everywhere you can because I love it. I do feel grateful for all the trouble you take to keep the ship afloat. I am off to France in about 12 days, but any letters sent here will eventually reach me...”, 3 sides 8vo., 37 Holland Street, Kensington, 31st July

RAMSAY
(Alexander, 1822-1909, Writer & Agriculturalist, from 1847 Editor of the Banffshire Journal)
Autograph Letter Signed to 'Dear Tiffin',
saying he finds that "we shall have to use Goldsmiths' Hall before the Beer subjects", asking him to "leave them, therefore, and make with all possible speed two drawings ... an exterior and an interior of some part ... the great room where they give feasts would be best I think. We must have the blocks home here by Saturday week", with a P.S. saying "I got home last night soon after 11, as hot as if I had rowed for the first of August coat and badge. Eight miles is a pretty decent pull. Platt reached home about the same time. Bowman had only to saunter to do his task comfortably", 2 sides 8vo., no place, 3rd August
