Autograph Letter Signed to Mr Mansell Morny, concerning James Form Hartwright, "a late member of our Choir, now at School at the Boys High School, but living in the school House would like to be confirmed this spring. Have you a confirmation in All Saint's Church & could you present him with your candidates? I did some work in the way of preparation with him last year and would see him again this year if you were good enough to present him ... He seems a nice quiet well behaved boy and has, I believe a genuine wish to be confirmed ..", 3 sides 8vo., New College, Oxford, 22nd February
