Porter, Jane, 1776-1850. Diary of Jane Porter [manuscript], 1801-1803.

Title: Diary of Jane Porter [manuscript], 1801-1803.

Begins January 1, 1801, with frequent entries to June 8, 1801; scattered entries for 1802; one only for 1803 (2 February). Many entries are long and filled with details about Jane's activities: reading, writing, theater attendance, and innumerable visits, but especially about her own intimate feelings, the recording of which is her chief avowed object. Both Jane and her sister Maria wrote for the stage and were in close touch with it, the diary supplying much information on the subject. Charles Kemble and Maria Theresa De Camp (later his wife) are among Jane's closest friends and are much discussed. The first appearance of Henry Caulfield (another close friend) as Hamlet at Drury Lane (a marked success) is described in detail (leaves 37, 61). Other persons who figure prominently are: Jane's brother Robert, her sister Anna Maria, Mary Robinson ("Perdita"), the brothers Horatio and James Smith, a Sir Sidney Smith, and John Stockdale (e.g. leaf 24v).

Morse family. Morse family papers, 1779-1868 (inclusive).

Title: Morse family papers, 1779-1868 (inclusive).

The principal figures in this collection are Jedidiah Morse (1761-1826) and his sons Samuel Finley Breese Morse (1791-1872) and Richard Cary Morse (1795-1868). More than half of the collection is made up of correspondence (1779-1868) among members of the family. Also included are legal and financial papers, sermons by Jedidiah and Richard Cary Morse, travel journals, newspaper clippings, scrapbooks, printed matter, and photographs. Jedidiah Morse's missionary work among the Indians and his concern for their condition is reflected in a number of letters on the subject. Samuel F. B. Morse, who had a double career as a painter and as the inventor of the telegraph, is represented by correspondence, depositions on his invention, and three drawings by a student (dated 1862). Richard Cary Morse's papers contain a biography of Jedidiah Morse and extensive journals on travels to the Bay of Fundy in 1822; to Europe in 1837-1838 in search of a cure for his depression; and again to Europe in 1855. One of the entries in his journal of 1837-1838 is his account of the coronation procession of Queen Victoria. Correspondence with his wife, Sarah Louise, between 1838 and 1850 conveys a vivid picture of family life and many details on the sickness of children.

Paterson, Charles William, 1756-1841. Papers of Charles William Paterson, 1777-1858 (bulk 1793-1798).

Title: Papers of Charles William Paterson, 1777-1858 (bulk 1793-1798).

The twin cores of this small collection consist of (1) six letters from Captain Paterson to his uncle Charles William Tonyn (d. 1805, rector of Radnage in Buckinghamshire) and to his grandmother, written chiefly from the Mediterranean in 1793-1794, mentioning in passing the French Royalist uprising at Toulon in November 1793, Sir william Sidney Smith's attack on the French naval fleet and arsenal in the Inner Harbor at Toulon, and Paterson's own concerns for his family, patronage, and promotion, and (2) the Navy Board's various letters to Paterson concerning the personnel, supplies, and refitting of the ship Admiral de Vries at Chatham Yard in 1798. Other than a brief testimonial and a list of his promotions, there is virtually nothing about Paterson's earlier service in North America or his activities during the remainder of the Napoleonic Wars.

Buckingham, George Nugent Temple Grenville, Marquess of, 1753-1813. Letter from George Grenville, Marquess of Buckingham, to Sir, an unidentified job printer, refusing to pay for an order placed fraudulently, 1795, November 15.

Title: Letter from George Grenville, Marquess of Buckingham, to Sir, an unidentified job printer, refusing to pay for an order placed fraudulently, 1795, November 15.

The letter was written to an as yet unidentified job-printer who had delivered to the Marquess a shipment of handbills offering a reward of 500 pounds for the author of a supposed libel against him, said to have been posted in Stowe Park and around the town of Buckingham. The Marquess claimed that both his signature and seal on the letter placing the order were forged, and regretted that the printer and the Editor of The True Briton had been taken in. He refused to pay the bill and returned the ruined paper stock with his apologies. The printer is probably John Stockdale (information from HM 76777).
