Letters of Matthew Arnold [manuscript], 1874-1887.

Arnold writes to Thomas Humphrey Ward, 1874, arranging a visit and stating he would not accept a Professorship of English Literature at Oxford until provisions are made for Ward. He writes to Lady Reay, 1878 September 1, regretting an invitation as he is taking his eldest daughter Lucy to the Paris Exhibition. In letters to Sir Frederic Leighton, 1878 November 15 and 1881 April 11, he congratulates Leighton on becoming president of the Royal Academy and agrees to respond to a toast. In a letter to Lord Suffolk, 1879 July 5, he proposes a visit and comments on his essay on Irish Catholicism which converted Lowe and on the Lord Chancellor's bill pertaining to Ireland. In letters to Violet Manners, 1887 May 19 and 31, he sends a volume of poetry and mentions a future fishing trip.
