3pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged. The name of the addressee has been amended from 'J. B. Waring' to 'J. R. Planché Eqr.' In 1854 Wyatt and Waring had collaborated on four architectural guidebooks to the courts of the Crystal Palace at Sydenham, and the present item relates to sculptures present there. The letter beings iwth Wyatt thanking Planché for 'a copy of your interesting comments on Professor Cockerell's views with respect to the Wells & other sculptures', which he has read 'with care and interest'. They only serve to confirm the original impression which in my mind when I first heard Cockerell promulgate his theory at one of the Academy lectures some 12 years ago, viz - that there existed no evidence worthy of credit for the clear identification of one quarter of the whole number of statues.' As 'Carter, Gough, and others' have 'failed altogether', and as Cockerell's theory has gone uncontradicted 'neither Waring nor I had any other alternative than to cite his work and his authority as all of any importance that had been written on the subject. | Should our handbook ever reach another edition it will be our duty to allude to that as doubtful which at the date of our publication had not been contravened.'.…

On Behalf of the Governor's of the Hospital. June 1923."ÂFrom the Library of the Edward, The Duke of Windsor. Rare and desirable. Founded in 1123 by Anglo-Norman monk Rahere, St. Bartholomewâs Hospital was granted to the Corporation of London in 1546 which endowed it with income entitlements. The Hospital has a rich history as a hub of medical and surgical research from the 17th century to present day, including the development of the principles of modern surgery by Percivall Pott and John Abernethy and the advancement of the nursing profession by Mrs. Bedford Fenwick. In 1843, St. Bartholomewâs Hospital Medical College was established and the present School of Nursing and Midwifery was formed in 1994. Edward VIII was King of the United Kingdom from January 1936 until his abdication in December the same year. Only months into his reign, he caused a constitutional crisis by proposing marriage to Wallis Simpson, an American who had divorced her first husband and was seeking a divorce from her second. When it became apparent that he could not marry Wallis and remain on the throne, Edward abdicated. He was succeeded by his younger brother, George VI. With a reign of 326 days, Edward was one of the shortest-reigning monarchs in British history.…
