See his entry in the Oxford DNB. From 1821 to the end of his life Barnard served as a courtier, notably as Equerry to King George IV, and it would appear that the present item is written in response to an enquiry made to the recipient of the letter regarding paintings in the royal collection. He writes from Camford House, where Queen Adelaide, widow of William IV, had taken up residence. 4pp, 12mo. On bifolium with thin mourning border. In fair condition, on aged paper. Folded twice. Begins: 'The three Ladies in the Picture of the Prince of Wales playing on the Violoncello, are his three sisters, viz. the (afterwards) Dutchess [sic] of Brunswick the Princess Amelia, I forget who the third married but will let you know tomorrow - The Prince is evidently stepping out of tune and working away in true Amateur style, [Barnard was himself a Governor of the Royal Academy of Music] this is perceptible in his attitude & were it not the young Lady with a book in her hand shews it by her Countenance and by her stopping her ears'. He considers the picture 'a very clever one', and attributes it to 'Nollekins the father of the Sculptor' (i.e. 'Old Nollekins', Joseph Francis Nollekins, 1702-1748). In 'the picture of Charles the Second dancing with the Queen of Bohemia at the Ball given at the Hague by the States general' he has 'made out many of the figures', and has also done so 'at the one representing the Time with a Club drinking punch and Port - the one opposite where the Prince is peeping thro the door half open has the names of all the parties written on the back of it'. If the enquirer 'wants information about any of the others I know a little about most of them and should be happy to communicate all that I have learned to any one about to print as it is a great pity that the Clue to their History should be lost'.

4pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper, with minor traces of tape from mount adhering along one edge. Endorsed 'Genl. Wm. Napier'. On wove paper with watermark 'CANSELL | 1830'. The letter - written with energy and some resentment - refers to Admiral Sir William Parker (1781-1866), who was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath in 1815. It is headed 'Private & Confidential' and begins: 'My dear Macdonald | In reflection I decided not to ask for the rank you suggested, because I thought it might be considered a personal favor, & not an act which conferred personal dignity on one of the King's Agents, & I detest asking for favors, especially from persons unwilling to grant them.' He continues: 'Lord Palmeston ought to see & judge himself whether or not the public service is benefitted by such rank being conferred, my own belief is that when An Agent goes amongst these Military Nations, where Military rank is alone considered, the higher the rank of the Agent the easier he can do his duty.' Nevertheless Napier will not ask, '& without asking nothing is given in England'. He continues: 'I think I was ill used in not having the 2d Order of the Bath given to me when it was given to Adl. Parker. We were colleagues on the same station, he a New Admiral, I a Brigadier General with fuller powers than he had, for when two Ministers like Asses sent our fleet to Sea where it remained at a great expense (from near 2 [?]) to the Nation I alone had the Power to call it into the Tagus, & did call it into the Tagus, on my own responsiblity, which act was approved of by the Ministry. However they gave Parker the Bath & not me, but I certainly shall not ask for it. Nor have I ever, nor shall I ever complain of not having it, & say to to you & to you alone in strict Confidence'.

Parnell had died around ten weeks before, on 6 October 1891. See Harrison's entry in the Oxford DNB: 'After the party broke in two in December 1890, Harrison campaigned with his chief in Ireland, constituting himself a bodyguard and aide-de-camp. After Parnell's death in October 1891 Harrison, young though he was, hastened to Brighton to put his services at the disposal of Parnell's widow. It was then that he heard from her a very different account of the circumstances surrounding her divorce from that given in court. This indicated that O'Shea's evidence had been completely untrustworthy, that he had apparently connived for a long period at Parnell's relations with his wife, from whom he himself had virtually separated, and that his motives had been a mixture of political ambition and financial greed. Harrison felt unable to publish this story until those most likely to be affected were dead.' The present item is from a collection of Irish nationalist autographs assembled by Miss Burgess of Norwich. 1p, 12mo. On first leaf of a bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded once for postage. Reads: 'Dear Madam, / Mrs. Parnell requests me to thank you for your kind letter of the 5th. inst. & to say that she will be glad to give you the autograph if you will forward your book to her for the purpose / I am / Yours faithfully / Henry Harrison'.

2pp., 4to. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. One minor manuscript emendation (see below). Dated at the head 'March 3rd. 1921' and addressed to 'Madam'. Part of the letter was published - lacking the first sentence and all of the second page, and with the name 'Clonmult' omitted - in the second volume of the 'News Letter of the Friends of Irish Freedom, National Bureau of Information, Washington', where it was preceded by: 'The following is the story of an Irish mother, who relates, in a letter received by a lady resident in England, how she was called to a military barracks in Ireland to identify her dead son:' The letter begins: 'Madam, | I beg to acknowledge with grateful thanks the sum of £1. I am one of the mothers of the boys who was killed at Clonmult on February 20th., [sic] He [amended in manuscript from 'he'] was only 19 years old, and as fine a young man as you would wish to see, and I his mother that saw him only three weeks previous to his death when I went up to Cork barracks to identify him I really at first could only recognise his hair - Oh! my goodness what a butchery they gave those 12 young men. To my dying day I wont [sic] forget the sight that met my eyes when that dead house door was opened, to see all those fine young men thrown like dogs on the floor labeled "on H.M.S." and each one having a number, and their poor feet tied with ropes. My poor boy was just inside the door, his poor face all broke up, his eyes were broke in his head, his mouth broke and twisted, and all his teeth in his mouth, one arm completely cut off, and not one inch of his poor body but bayonet wounds, you could easily see they were bayonet wounds as ll his coat and pants were cut through, and one great big hole just up at his neck like as if they drove the bayonet to the butt and turned it round'. Here the published extract ends, but the author goes on to describe how her husband has been '12 months idle the end of this month, he is gone to work yesterday thank God', and that her '4 little children' have been 'often hungry and would be worse only I went out working myself to try and keep the home over us, and anywhere that poor boy tried to get employment the police prevented him, also his father, so thank God he is at rest'. She asserts that she 'could write a book on the way I and my family are persecuted by police and military during the past 18 months, torn out of bed at all hours of the night, my house and place all upset.' From the Dryhurst/Lynd papers.

In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip from mount adhering to reverse of second leaf, which is addressed, with broken seal in red wax, to 'Dr. Blagden | Secry. to the | Royal Society | London'. After thanking Blagden for the trouble he has taken 'in transmitting the thanks of the R: Socy. To me for the trifling performance I sent to the Library', Hamilton continues: 'I consider myself as honoured by its reception. Allow me, Sir, to wish all prosperity to this learned Society by whose labours Science in all its branches is extended, and mankind benefited.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

He states that, as Maynard is 'a party concernd in ye Petn of Capt Ed: Lister & Joan his wife', he is desired by the committee to 'meet them in ye Inner Court of Wards' on the following Friday, 'to ye end you may not be concluded unheard'. As his entry in the Oxford DNB explains, Morgan was a supporter of 'the Cromwellian interest' who, in the 1656-8 parliament, was for a second time elected for Kildare and Wicklow, and 'was one of the most important managers of Irish legislation in the house'. Maynard's Oxford DNB entry records that he was chosen to parliament in 1656, though he was not allowed to sit. Original FRS. Apparently a very scarce autograph.
