A biography of Pearson ('a notable figure within the church') is appended to that of his father in the Oxford DNB. Each of these letters is 2pp, 12mo (the second with cross writing at the head of a further two pages), and both are on bifoliums. In fair condition, lightly aged. The two have been extracted from an autograph album, and are lightly attached along the inner edge, with further light traces of the brown paper mount on the reverse of the last leaf of the second letter. Both are addressed to 'Dear Miss Seton' and signed 'Hugh Pearson.' ONE (23 October 1877): He explains why he 'cannot undertake to write such a memoir of Miss Mitford as you propose, much as I should like to do so, for my residence here occupies me entirely, and, on my return to Sonning, I shall find an accumulation of work there.' In addition, he does not believe he 'could add much to the accounts of Miss Mitford already published'. He explains that he 'contributed largely to the memorials edited by Mr. L'Estrange for Mr. Harness, and to those by Mr. Chorley'. He offers to add 'any thing that occurs to me as likely to prove of general interest' from his 'personal recollections', should she wish to 'draw up a biography of Miss Mitford'. TWO (21 November [1877]): Her letter and 'the Proofs' have reached him. 'I like the notice of Miss Mitford extremely.' He discusses 'One or two things' which occur to him. The first is a paragraph concerning Swallowfield ('a more comfortable house than the ruinous cottage at Three Mile Cross'); the second with regards to her view of her 'Tragedies'; the third, 'her love for French History'; fourth, 'her absolute devotion to her friends [.] I never knew so frantic a friend'. He considered her 'a noble-hearted creature, & absolutely free from jealousy. How rare, especially in a literary person! I never knew her detract from the merit of authors, or give faint praise.'.…

An characteristic letter by the author of 'Our Village', written in the year of her move from Three Mile Cross, Berkshire, to nearby Swallowfield, itself eight miles from Pearson's home in Sonning. See the entries on Mitford and Pearson in the Oxford DNB. 1p, 16mo. On the recto of the first leaf of a bifolium which has been unfolded with the fore-edge of the second leaf attached to a nineteenth-century stub. In good condition, lightly aged. Between the stub and the page with the text of the letter, on what was the reverse of the second leaf, is laid down the cover of the letter's envelope, with postmarked red penny stamp, addressed by Mitford to 'Revd. Hugh Pearson / Vicarage / Sonning / Reading'. An satisfying piece of nineteenth-century arrangement. The cover of the letter is annotated in a contemporary hand 'Octr. 21 / 1851.' The letter is signed 'M R Mitford'. Begins: 'My dear Mr. Pearson / I need not say how delighted I shall be to see you & Lady Henley, or how much I feel the honour & the kindness of her visit'. She suggests that they do her 'the further pleasure of lunching here': 'The days are so short now that I venture to make the proposal. You need not fear my giving you any but cottage fare'. She concludes by saying that she rejoices in 'seeing Dr. & Mrs. Williamson my kind neighbours'. Note: "A biography of Pearson ('a notable figure within the church') is appended to that of his father in the Oxford DNB.".…
