HOUG/DB/6/6/1 · Item · 7 Feb. 1869
Part of Papers of Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton

Embossed notepaper for St. Dunstans, Regents Park. - Coxe showed him letters of Francisque Michel referring to an MS of St. Brandan's [sic] voyage]; perhaps it will be suitable for the Philobiblon as the Roxburghe Club does not propose to print it. Encloses correspondence [no longer present]. Asks Houghton what he thinks of the Mystère de Saint Louis [published for the Roxburghe Club in 1871]; curious Anglo-French phrases.

Fryston Hall. - Philobiblon cannot support Mr [Henry George?] Bohn's proposition: aim of Miscellanies is to publish small bibliographical and historical items which would not otherwise get into print; present subject is unsuitable and too long; single volumes, when published, have been financed by members concerned; subscriptions barely cover expense of yearly volumes.
