A nice collection of material, including five letters in which an American actor writes to a London friend while on a visit to England. The recipient of McDonough's letters is John Jabez Stocken (d.1892), head of a leading City of London firm of tobacconists, and an antiquary. (His son Frank Lacy Stocken (1867-1937) was later an actor under the name 'Frank Lacy'.) From the correspondence it is clear that McDonough stayed with Stocken during his stay in England. Seven items, of which five are ALsS from McDonough to Stocken, totalling 12pp, written while on a visit to England in 1873; one is a letter written to Stocken by McDonough's agent the attorney D. S. Winebrener following the actor's death; and the last a long obituary of him from the Philadelphia Press. The seven in fair condition, lightly aged and worn. All signed 'John E. McDonough'. Spelling and punctuation erratic. ONE: ALS from McDonough to Stocken. Undated [early 1873]. On Stocken's own letterhead, 'London, 10, Gracechurch Street. E.C.' Headed 'God Save The King" | Greeting unto the House of Stocken -'. He explained that he 'arrived on Wednesday - Called her "by Cable Dispatch" So it will excuse my abrubt [sic] breaking in upon Your "Majesty". He ends by stating that he is 'at Haxells - Strand'. TWO: ALS from McDonough to Stocken. 'Sunday Night', 20 January 187[3]. '[.] And may your Fireside be always as warm as your welcome [.] I am awaiting my Mail from London which may direct my Course hitherward in which Event I will chop in at Croydon if only to return The Latch Key to "My Friend and Pitcher" | What a pity it is that the power of translating our thoughts into Language and transmitting Two miles away for the paltry Sum of Sixpence that the same privilege is not extended to having a "Hot Toddy" ever the "Shanker" of the Evening shall have departed. [.] My imagination sometimes wanders back to Buxton and the Old Smoke Room in which we indulged Romance with Reality. with Childlike Simplicity of the first born of Eden. It was to me a Paradise. though at times we had more smoke than fire. And the Scotch Man feet was alway in the Ashes. Still it was full of Shandean touches that gave releaf [sic] to the Picture in the gross.' He asks 'What has become of "Herne The Hunter." Mr Becker. has he still a prologue to the next Story.' He continues in the same tone of whimsy, before reporting his return from Reading, 'at which place I dilivered [sic] the closing Lecture of the Lyceum Cause My Subject Dramatic Literature and its Patrons.' He concludes with the news that he has 'just been presented with Home Sweet Home in the hand writing of The Author. John Howard Paine. I think I will have It Photographed and send you a Copy. The Poor fellow died without a House'. THREE: ALS from McDonough to Shocken. Endorsed with date 15 February 1873; on letterhead of Haxell's Royal Exeter Hotel, West Strand [London]. He 'returned quite late last night from "Shandy Hall" [Laurence Sterne's cottage, Coxwold, North Yorkshire] and but for an engagement to Dine at The "Savage Club" at 5 this P.M. would do myself the pleasure of coming down to see you to day'. He concludes by stating in florid terms how he will 'devote to thee and thine'. FOUR: ALS from McDonough to Shocken. 19 [February 1873]; Royal Haxell [Hotel], Strand. He 'returned to the City of Chronic Fog this morning meeting with Mr Creswick we had a "Tod" and he very kindly invited me to Dine with him at the Club on Friday [.] I will be in the Saddle at 3. P.M.' FIVE: ALS from McDonough to Shocken. 3 March 1873; on Haxell's letterhead. The previous day he 'clung to the House on purpose' of a day with Stocken, who 'did not put in an appearance'. He is 'to Dine to Day with W. S. Johnson of St Martin's Lane. Otherwise I would run out to Credwell - and pay my last Adieu. I leave for Home on Wednesday per Steamer [Greech?] and having business in Liverpool am Obliged to leave at 2/20 to morrow Monday.' He asks for 'The address of Mr Keeling.
