Scope and content
46 Marlborough Hill, St John’s Wood, London, N.W. Sends his Ann Morgan and Susan and asks Munby to write his name on the title of Susan and to inscribe both books on the flyleaf “H. Buxton Forman from the Author” even though he bought them himself. He knew someone would send “the lying rag,” referring to a review of Munby’s Poems: Chiefly Lyric and Elegiac in The Daily News. Wonders why anyone need care about “such asses as the whole lot of folk concerned in that paper.”
