Autograph letter signed : London, to Arthur Moore, [1889 Oct. 16].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/506500031

A drunken letter describing debauchery and drinking. Hoping to see Moore soon in order to drink absinthe, for "what is one more drink among so many?" Mentioning "it is an awfully weird feeling to feel as drunk as I do now at 11.30 AM" and prophesying his own "callid porpse." Stating "there is nothing in the universe supportable save the novels of H[enr]y James, & the society of little girls." Disparaging women and society, remarking that "the idea of the little girl is the only one which doesn't make for bloodiness."
