uneasiness, and will not again even ask. You know all that words can
say--time cannot change. Thus, accept, &c. (and as to which I need not
repeat); till then I only say A. S.
935.--_Monday, May 3, 1858._
X BLUE EYES X.--I protested (in writing), both before and after, against
that “Genug für Alles” business. The Moravian March Rose must give
“Auskunft” and guarantee £500.--Toes.--CYGNE.
936.--_Thursday, May 6, 1858._
SOPHIA W . . . . . M.--In looking over the MSS. Jouold DISCOVERED the
MISSING SLIP written at the hotel, Plymouth; also, “Il mio Tiranno.” All
is now ready but the dedication. Which do you think? Father or
son!--TICHBORNE.
937.--_Saturday, May 8, 1858._
JE dois et je veux savoir.
938.--_Tuesday, May 11, 1858._
TO A. S.--I have seen May 1st (and 8th?) All is right and settled. Words
are needless. Be tranquil.
939.--_Friday, May 14, 1858._
A. S.--This is only to thank you for what I have seen. My pleasure is
the hope that I interpret rightly the last word but two. Give or get me
the earliest permission possible to send the “Enigma;” and, when you
see what was wanting, you will find there was none. I am gone away till
the middle of July. I need not say where now. Only one day’s post.
J’attends.
940.--_Monday, May 17, 1858._
MODELLA de 1854!--Ah! voudrai-je n’avoir pas proféré une pétition si
facile à concéder, mais dont le refus si inattendu, et l’observation qui
l’accompagnait, m’a causé tant de douleur. Le destin un prépare une
pélérinage d’outre-Manche; pendant cet exile vos lettres chéries seront
mon unique consolation. Si depuis quelque temps elles sont moins
démonstratives, je suis sure que vous l’ignorez. Ancor, séparé ou non
séparé. “Vi giuro eterna fede.”
941.--_Thursday, May 20, 1858._
DEAR A. S.--This time I write first. All is right, &c. You know, &c.
Time, &c. Please answer if, and as soon as, you can. All is
fixed.--Yours, &c., M.
942.--_Saturday, May 22, 1858._
TO LIDFORD.--15_s._ in town, besides cab hire (in case of need). In
England--35_s._ per diem, inclusive of hotel (and exclusive of railway)
expenditure. To second query, Yes. To third query, No, “as to language.”
943.--_Wednesday, May 26, 1858._
VI GIURO ETERNA FEDE! Nothing can ever change me. Séparé ou non séparé,
“toujours fidèle” jusqu’à la mort! Dieu vous garde! MODELLA de 1854.
944.--_Monday, June 7, 8, 1858._
GAS--Tar--Shoes. Shakspeare’s Bust;--Aubert and Klaftenburg;--money for
the present;--proposals for the future. I wish to send to you. No
inquiry shall be made. Rely. One line by post. Quite broken down. Oh,
come.
945.--_Thursday, June 17, 1858._
HEARTSEASE.--Pray be calm. Do not be too eager. All will yet be right.
Do you agree to meet, and part no more. Some are foes--find a friend.
The flowers in the conservatory, I suppose, bloomed last week. Do not
part with anything. Do write. Vale.
946.--_Saturday, June 19, 1858._
HEARTSEASE.--On the brow of the vale. Received with thanks. Agreed as
desired, if not too long delayed. Foes I never feared. Friends are
sometimes treacherous. I have not forgotten the conservatory. As ever.
W.
947.--_Saturday, June 26, 1858._
Y. Z.--Can there be happiness without confidence? Alas, I see you doubt.
It can never be received. It would be entire ruin. Can you sign it? In a
month, death or victory.
948.--_Monday, June 28, 1858._
Y. Z.--As you desire. Your sincerity is very satisfactory. Thanks for
your faithfulness, it is duly appreciated, and shall be well rewarded.
Hope on a little longer. Did you notice Saturday?
949.--_Wednesday, July 7, 1858._
X. GAMINS X.--I CANNOT LECTURE at Coventry as contemplated. Although
reported in the “Endowed Schools Commission” as receiving £80 per annum,
I get but £50, and you know with that without board, &c.--E. J. W.,
Cygne.

M. R.--E. R. and “not” M. R. worked illicit still third 2 months, 1855,
at H. G.--M. R. unknown at “16 or 7.” Landlady at 16, dead. M. R. or E.
R., age 20. Query, has E. R. a child 4 or 5 years old?--C. F. Field,
Private Inquiry-office, Devereux-court, W.C.
952.--_Wednesday, July 14, 1858._
ESPERANZA.--J’attends votre lettre avec impatience. Dites-moi où je dois
vous écrire et quand je puis venir. Soyez ferme et tout ira bien. Votre
tout dévoué.
953.--_Thursday, July 15, 1858._
ESPERANZA.--Cela ne sera jamais. Ces enfantillages ne m’effrayent pas.
Plus que jamais je suis décidé à tout avoir, et une vingtaine de ces
lettres injustes et cruelles ne me détourneront pas de mon projet. Vous
savez ce que je ferais si vous me faisiez perdre la partie. Vous n’avez
qu’à rester fidèle à vos promesses.
954.--_Wednesday, July 21, 1858._
ESPERANZA.--J’attends toujours une lettre: si je ne la reçois pas
bientôt j’irai vous voir. L’affaire marche bien, mais votre
indifférence et votre silence m’ont beaucoup affligés. Votre tout
dévoué.
955.--_Saturday, July 24, 1858._
ESPERANZA.--Say how a letter can reach you, and you will receive
important information. Address, E. D. V. X., Post-office, Jersey.
956.--_Monday, July 26, 1858._
ESPERANZA.--Il me semble que vous m’avez tout-à-fait oublié. Pourquoi ne
m’avez-vous pas écrit? Au moins, dites-moi où je puis vous écrire. Comme
il s’agit maintenant de notre bonheur futur, vous pouviez être un peu
moins inconstant. Votre dévoué.
957.--_Tuesday, July 27, 1858._
ACT 7. V. R. Cap. 30 and 31. Parole.
958.--_Wednesday, July 28, 1858._
DECIMALS to CHEOPS.--I have done the State some service, and they know
it; but I intend to do a great deal more. Coventry, like Spitalfields,
will not assist us; but the form must be gone through. Address E. J.
Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
959.--_Monday, August 2, 1858._
DECIMALS to CHEOPS.--T. C. JONES, Esq., DIED last year in America. It is
exceedingly unfortunate. He and I were the only merchants who thoroughly
understood the whole system. Address E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
960.--_Wednesday, August 4, 1858._
UNDECIDED.--From OLD TOM.
961.--_Wednesday, August 11, 1858._
DECIMALS to CHEOPS.--It was the perseverance of one man that sent Lord
Bacon to the Tower. Not Coventry, but Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool.
Address E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
962.--_Thursday, August 12, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--Letters received the 10th. Henceforth I have every
confidence--it was only this trial I feared. I have had a dreadful
letter from P. Trust no one. Look again 17th. Will try what I can do the
other way. Keep up your spirits.--LOCHINVAR.
963.--_Wednesday, August 18, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--Your letter received. Your feelings on receipt will tell you
mine. Address given will always find. I leave for the continent in a
week. Will continue to communicate thus. Never mind the P. S. question.
Write when can.--Lochinvar.
964.--_Friday, August 20, 1858._
ALL’S WRONG, Wrong. From Old Tom. Write.
965.--_Saturday, August 21, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--The genuine, truthful, earnest style of your letters is
deeply appreciated. Do not alter it. For C. read J. Two months. L. has
and always will have perfect confidence. Keep L. advised as to all
movements at head quarters.--Constantia.
966.--_Saturday, August 28, 1858._
CONSTANTIA.--Trust our kind friend (under promise) with all except means
of intelligence. Say how grateful I am for kindness to you. Say nothing
to T. at present. B. B. could not offend. L.’s confidence and respect
increase daily. Have taken measures to frustrate our enemy. Keep aloof
from this person. Advise our kind friend to do the same as terrible
disclosures impend (not affecting us).--L.
967.--_Thursday, September 2, 1858._
DECIMALS to CHEOPS.--Honest John Bull is pig-headed, but he begins to
grasp this business. I claim to rank with Cobden, Bright, and Rowland
Hill. I go on. (Long R---- Joey). Address E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
968.--_Wednesday, September 8, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--Should have written sooner, but am far away. Write as often
as can; ’tis all I have to cheer me. Now and then. The person you so
much dislike (a Lady) is the enemy alluded to. I am not very friendly
with him whose visits you advised me of. Do not let him gain any
information from you, and believe nothing he may report. Cheer up. Every
confidence. Be cautious.--L.
969.--_Wednesday, September 22, 1858._
CONSTANTIA.--Received two. That which has worried you is part of a plan.
Heed it not. If that which you allude to is not given it must be done
without. Rely upon L’s affection and determination. Who says ’tis for
the best? 1st November. The time will pass, slow as it lags. Were it 10
instead of 2 it would make no change. Pray write soon--tell me of your
health. B. B. must be very steadfast, and close ears to the insidious
whisperings, which will be continued.--VIOLET.
970.--_Wednesday, September 29, 1858._
COLCHESTER.
971.--_Saturday, October 2, 1858._
THE COMET will appear very bright, on Saturday. Look out at
Remenham.--Briggs.
972.--_Monday, October 4, 1858._
G. P-- N-- G-- N--. Mandami il tuo indirizzo, avrò forse bisogno di
scriverti. Qualora tu foste ricercato del piccolo B. O. M. ti avverto
che coloro che lo Chiedono non sono antorizzati, ne dalla famiglia sua
ne dalla madre, e però tu non sei obbligato a dire dove stà.--H.
973.--_Thursday, October 7, 1858._
DECIMALS to CHEOPS.--I have lost my money and my child. You can guess my
feelings. Can a lawyer advise a criminal act without rendering himself
equally liable? Answer to E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
974.--_Thursday, October 7, 1858._
VIOLET--3 which greatly comforted me. I rate your good taste too high
and the individual too low to cause any uneasiness. Would a letter as
last be safe? Is our kind friend as well disposed towards me as ever? It
would please me much to know this. Well in health, but low in spirits. I
was a little uneasy, but am no longer so.--Lochinvar.
975.--_Thursday, October 21, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--Two.--I am deeply grateful, and much happier for the
knowledge of * * * * *’s continued kindness and good opinion. You can
communicate all except the actual means to her. I do not doubt ----
trustworthiness, but a look or a gesture might unwittingly betray, and
invoke consequences which would be frightful. Well. Again in a few days.
I have so much to say, the loss of the expected means is miserable,
though not unexpected.--L.
976.--_Tuesday, November 2, 1858._
AU CONTRAIRE, long expected Y O M is not such an uncertain bird that
some indications of his flight would not be observable. Have more
confidence.
977.--_Tuesday, November 2, 1858._
CONSTANTIA.--One.--Your efforts cannot but meet my warmest approbation.
One of my dearest hopes was to have shared in this, but trust may help
to finish. . . . . .’s kindness, merits, and receives my warmest
gratitude--say this from me. Something may be made of the excursion you
name. Think, and I will also. The separation from B. B. is becoming
unendurable to L. Each day heavier than the last. A meeting must be
managed. Well. About 4th November.
978.--_Saturday, November 6, 1858._
SO BE IT, MARIE, God bless you! 10th and 11th if possible, which is
earlier than I said, if I am able to leave home. The trial is terrible.
You act nobly. You know some dates, please to use them. All’s well. Ever
your--.--Nov. 5.
979.--_Monday, November 8, 1858._
LAURA.--The choice rose has drooped this year--the petals will become
dry, but still retain the aroma--some of the branches are a little out
of cultivation--the stem is degenerating. The otto from the damask rose
will ever retain its fragrance--all extraneous perfumes nauseate. Thanks
for the liberal offer, which is gratefully declined. As before.
980.--_Tuesday, November 9, 1858._
CONSTANTIA.--Letters have been sent which have not come to your hands.
Write and say where one can be sent safely. You may depend on me.
981.--_Wednesday, November 10, 1858._
VIOLET.--Great caution is now necessary. L.’s movements are known.
Patience and faith. Well. In a few days. Your brother does not wish to
offend. London, Nov. 9, 1858.
982.--_Thursday, November 11, 1858._
STANDLYNCH, 1811, the Comet: Paris, E. Ct., 1858, the Comet!
983.--_Tuesday, November 16, 1858._
BLUE BELL.--Is anything wrong? It seems such a terrible time since I
heard. Pray write soon as can. The notice (C) on Tuesday was not mine--V
was. There is one kind friend who will do all he can to effect a
reconciliation if opportunity offers. I fancy kinder feelings exist
towards me than we think. Do write.--London, November 12, 1858.
984.--_Wednesday, November 17, 1858._
TWENTY-FIVE.--Ich grüsse dich recht herzlich, und denke nur an dich.
985.--_Friday, November 19, 1858._
J. S. deceased.--Brentford, C. A.--The Clue.--Bartholomew accepts. The
most binding legal engagement will be entered into. Write at once, as
last, to Furnival’s-inn, and appoint interview.
986.--_Saturday, November 20, 1858._
LILIAN.--It was not wrong. I had only been doubtful as to the reality.
Happiness is yet in store for you. Pray write again and send an
address.--C.
987.--_Thursday, November 25, 1858._
B. B.--Are you unwell, or what is amiss? Nothing since November 2--21
long days. Can any letters have miscarried? My confidence is unshaken,
but I fear some terrible calamity. Pray relieve my anxiety, you know how
fearful that must be.--LOCHINVAR.
988.--_Thursday, November 25, 1858._
LILIAN.--Forgive me.--I cannot leave you thus. I have much to say of
comfort and sympathy, and long for the opportunity. Your better feelings
will tell you that Rome is not the only refuge. I beg of you to let me
hear at all times when practicable, if the other is at present
impossible, and also to withdraw the expression that your determination
is irrevocable. You may, indeed, confide in me as in a dear friend or
brother. Take courage, and hope for brighter days.--C.
989.--_Tuesday, November 30, 1858._
VIOLET.--The notice T. C. T. on the 9th was mine. I have cause again to
repeat the same. Pray write and say where a letter can be sent to you
safely. You know my address. Depend on me.--November 26.
990.--_Friday, December 3, 1858._
FAITH.--You have made me supremely happy. I do rely, and have perfect
confidence. You were grossly deceived. Entirely powerless for harm. I
accede to everything. Residence is changed. Address as in January. God
bless you!
991.--_Tuesday, December 21, 1858._
DEAR MARIE.--“Thanks.” “All is well. Semper idem.” Cautious, but quite
unchanged by trials. All is quite safe. A gleam appears. The full day is
at hand. Your conduct is noble. Refer as I do thus. “God bless you. Ever
your own,--.”--Dec. 18.
992.--_Tuesday, December 21, 1858._
NEW YEAR’S DAY.--Remember your promise, its fulfilment would atone for
the past, and mitigate the future. I seek no impossible renewal--only my
own peace. Urge no commonplaces as to inexpediency, &c.--the heart
knoweth its own bitterness. You once confided a dark page of your life’s
history to me; can you not trust me now? I never betrayed you. Ignoring
“the days that are no more,” we may yet be friends. I hazard all.
993.--_Saturday, January 1, 1859._
THE FIRST INCOME, St. Clement’s.
994.--_Saturday, January 1, 1859._
T. K.--I have not yet fallen down the precipice, but still stand
trembling on its slippery brink. Alas, who can say that another year
will find me thus, now that I have lost your bright example and good
advice? Marianne.
995.--_Monday, January 10, 1859._
TO CONTRE-COUP.--I am puzzled what to do with my daughter when I get
her. I had the guarantee of a London schoolmistress of 23 years’
standing, and yet she was not safe. You know what happened to my money
and papers in the heart of the city of London. I want your advice
respecting my salary here; I must be cautious, as you know what happened
to me at Greenwich for daring to speak my mind. Address E. J. Wilson,
Ennis, Ireland.
996.--_Tuesday, January 11, 1859._
JAN. 6.--Dear A. S.--Receive the full expressions of my zeal ever. Your
conduct is noble and constant. I am the same, unbent even by ----,
inflexible like you. “All’s well.” Thus point and refer. Yours ever, M.
997.--_Friday, January 14, 1859._
TO HER WHO CAN UNDERSTAND.--Let the flower not droop. It must know that
the other flower does sympathize with it. A reply sent to your lines was
by some mistake not duly inserted. There will be no delay now, and all
may yet be right.
998.--_Tuesday, January 18, 1859._
DIENSTAG WAHL.--Nachmittags für sie. Lassen sie mich sie sehen?
999.--_Tuesday, February 1, 1859._
O. T. E.--Du muss nur einmal wieder schreiben--die letzte zeit. Denke an
dein versprechen; zwei Jahren zu warten, und dann oder wenn du willst
komme. Mein herz ist gestorben, &c.
1000.--_Tuesday, February 1, 1859._
CLOVES.--Thus to address you without having heard a word! I have tried
in vain to get news. My fears have been, are still, of the most painful,
even dreadful, kind. God grant they may soon be dispelled. He has, I
trust, supported you through all. I have been much tried, and have
written for my own relief, but would send all if I could. Many things
have forced themselves upon me, spite of my distress. Improvements
everywhere, only worth to me for their obvious bearing on the one object
I really live for. From the past let us gather strength and hope. I
trust nothing in what I sent has disturbed you. God bless you; be
true.--Clarence.
1001.--_Monday, February 7, 1859._
TO CONTRE-COUP.--To terminate this disgraceful business, I had made
arrangements to place my daughter at school, at Boxmoor, Herts, but I
cannot get her. Now, what am I to do? The money I relied on in my old
age has been alienated--my child lost for ever--myself in the most
miserable part of the land of misery, with a miserable salary. Write and
address E. J. Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
1002.--_Tuesday, February 8, 1859._
TWO THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED POUNDS--North-street.
1003.--_Tuesday, February 8, 1859._
ERNEST.--Je t’en prie m’envoyer les renseignements accueillis à Cologne,

ROSE-COLOURED Spectacles. Look through them if you would learn the
truth.
1006.--_Monday, February 14, 1859._
TO CONTRE-COUP.--My last advertisement to you arrived here yesterday,
and I lost two pupils the same day. Oh, Boxmoor! Boxmoor! (vous
comprendrez). The author of the decimal system at Her Majesty’s Customs,
which pours pure gold every day into the coffers of the nation, earning
a miserable subsistence in the worst part of Paddy’s land! “Aux hommes
capables la patrie méconnaissante.” Address E. J. Wilson, Ennis,
Ireland.--Feb. 10.

1012.--_Monday, March 7, 1859._
CLOVES.--Why this mysterious, most painful silence? Pray let me see you
soon.--T. T.
1013.--_Saturday, March 12, 1859._
CAUTION.--All persons assisting in secreting my daughter, ALICE JANE
WILSON, 10 years old, are liable to seven years’ imprisonment.--E. J.
Wilson, Ennis, Ireland.
1014.--_Tuesday, March 15, 1859._
VIOLET.--You may still rely. Yes, I will, on the 17th, weather
permitting; if not, on the 18th.
1015.--_Tuesday, March 15, 1859._
CLOVES.--Still silent! I am in great distress of mind about you. This
suspense is dreadful--let me not ask in vain for its removal.--CLARENCE.
1016.--_Tuesday, March 15, 1859._
TRIBE.--You are not to seize my child, even if you can find her. You
know how the detectives and police served me; but I intend to have my
rights like other men, or---- Vive la Reine.--E. J. WILSON, Ennis,
Ireland.
1017.--_Thursday, March 17, 1859._
ZOH MOT.--You are informed the second time that you are being duped and
deceived in the name of another. Keep away.
1018.--_Friday, March 18, 1859._
CLOVES.--I will agree to anything, if you will only let me write to you
at once. I have so much to say. This you must not refuse. God bless
you.--Clarence.
1019.--_Friday, March 18, 1859._
V.--I dare not believe in the coincidence--the happiness would be too
great--yet even you must allow it is very strange. The name cannot pass
my lips. “Her eyes are lode-stars, and her breath sweet air.” When last
I saw those other stars alone I was plunged in despair. Years have
elapsed since then, but the minutest incident is still ever fresh in my
memory.--15th March.--J.
1020.--_Tuesday, March 22, 1859._
THE WRITER of the ANONYMOUS LETTER, from London, is informed by Mr.
Wilson, Ennis, Ireland, that the money he relied on in his old age has
been alienated, both capital and interest, and he will have his daughter
sent him by the Limerick steamer.
1021.--_Saturday, March 26, 1859._
TO HER WHO UNDERSTANDS.--It is difficult to believe you really unkind.
Pray point out your wishes, and I will do them. Nothing but misery since
the 15th ult. North for a few days; afterwards let me arrange with
you--if the old faith survives, you will not keep out of the way. Be
kind and reply to, Yours ever.
1022.--_Tuesday, April 5, 1859._
HER WHO DOES NOT QUITE UNDERSTAND wishes to do so. Not really unkind. If
on the 15th ult. the innocence was proved, why longer doubt? Come to my
home, and, if honourable, welcome. Duty has called, but not kept me
purposely out of the way. Yours sincerely.--April 4, 1859.
1023.--_Tuesday, April 12, 1859._
NICHT eine MILLION.--If an English school-mistress betrays the most
sacred trust a father can confide to her, there is no power in England
to right him. So, “Vive la Reine.”--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, April 9.
1024.--_Saturday, April 16, 1859._
TWO HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD.--Any person (except a detective or his agent)
restoring to me my daughter, ALICE JANE WILSON, 10 years old, shall
receive £200 reward.--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, Ireland.
1025.--_Thursday, April 21, 1859._

COCCAGEE.
1027.--_Saturday, April 23, 1859._
NICHT ZWEI MILLIONEN.--£10,000 sterling. (Bah!) In 1848, the
commencement of the Golden Age, I would not have changed prospects with
the proudest French merchant in London. Durch u durch verfault.--Ennis,
20th April.
1028.--_Wednesday, April 27, 1859._
CONSERVE TA SANTÉE.--Ma caisse des allumettes est un trésor
inappréciable, le feux qu’elle contienne rechauffe mon âme, me guide
dans le ténèbre, et remplace si non le soleil enfin, au moins le réflêt
de son éclat.
1029.--_Wednesday, April 27, 1859._
YOU must be very gentle. Je comprend votre sentiment en harmonie avec
mes plus chèrs désirs, mais je n’ose pas. Concernant mes nouvelles: ma
vie est très solitaire. P. était trois jours avec moi. J’espére M.
mieux. Je retourne O. P. H., pour revenir--Lundi.
1030.--_Thursday, April 28, 1859._
DOUBLE-FIN to CONTRE-COUP.--£10,000 sterling. Bah! I claim £250,000 on
eggs alone, to say nothing of that costly national antique (Long R.
Joey), and on decimals £100,000. Je saurai bien faire valoir (mes
droits).--E. J. WILSON, Ennis, Ireland.
1031.--_Wednesday, May 4, 1859._
