Firmato
On cream colored paper watermarked T.H. Saunders, with printed heading 'Dictionary of National Biography/ (address)'. 18,6 x 11,8 cm. 4 p. Written in thin brown ink on recto only. Signed and dated '17/5/86'. Folded twice. Stained along the fold and vaguely at the foot of the letter. From young Sidney, or rather Solomon Lazarus Lee (1859-1926), the compiler of the Dictionary of National Biography to the cleric and writer Dr. Augustus Jessopp (1823-1914), an authority on 17th century history. A perfectly readable letter on Lee's article about Sir Simonds D'Ewes, that wasn't accepted by James Bass Mullinger. With mention of Leslie Stephen (the father of Virginia Woolf).
