Bulgin, William

To Lady Olivia Sparrow, February 17 1815

I hope you are still enjoying the profitable and very pleasant Society [deletion]. cribbed me sadly in the time he bestowed on us. If he has not left you be so good to tell him that I received his valuable present of Fenclon.^*It was indeed paying me for my Bristol Stones with Jewels of the first water. Pray tell him also that I was afraid, that thro the well meant folly of stupid Bulgin he had not receved [sic] a copy both for himself and , but have at last the satisfaction to find that he did. I woud write to himself but from the fear that he has left you, and if not this will save him the trouble of a letter I hope to see him again. The loss of such friends as we have lost makes us cling still closer to those of the same class who remain to us – I am ready to exclaim with in his last letter – Who next Lord?

Hannah More to Thomas Cadell Junior, 23 March 1825

I have lately had a visit from – the chief Bookseller and Printer of New York. He sent me some years since /a present of/ an American Edition of my own works – He printed thirty Editions of Coelebs One thousand in each Edition. He is a man of excellent Sense and character –
