Nathaniel Brassey Halhed manuscript material : 2 items, ca. 1793-1795?

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/269406618

ยท To Thomas Maurice, oriental scholar and librarian : 2 autograph letters signed : -- 26 Feb [no year] : on some sensitive issue; including, "I am as impatient under [ceremony] as a Monkey in harness." -- 10 May [no year] : replying to a letter "which conveys to my mind some, & perhaps not a few[,] uncomfortable sensations." Both letters discuss the bookseller Robert Faulder, who published works of Halhed's in 1793 and 1795. Both letters also bear a few annotations in another contemporary hand, perhaps that of Maurice.
