Autograph letter, third person, to Triphook.

Minor poet (1781-1829). One page, 8vo, some discoloration at the edge, but good. "Lord Thurlow returns his thanks to Mr Triphook for his obliging note; and purposes to have the pleasure of calling upon him tomorrow. Lord Thurlow especially wishes to retain the Prayer Book of Mr Evelyn, valuing it highly. He has marked 4 ["3" excised] books in this day's sale; & requests Mr Triphook will be so good as to purchase them for him. [postscript] Ld T wd be much obliged to Mr Triphook if he cd obtain for him a copy of ye Histy of Dunwich[.]" WITH: manuscript, one page, 8vo, Thurlow's hand, as follows: "The Flower And The Leaf, After/ Geoffrey Chaucer, / By/ Edward Hovel Thurlow,/ Lord Thurlow // London/ &c". Presumably he is suggesting the words of a title-page for a work which was not ultimately published. Not in LION. Two items,
