BRITISH AUTHORS]. CONRAD, JOSEPH. Original pen-and-ink drawing by Conrad of a fashionable Parisian lady walking while holding an umbrella, [n.p., ca. 1890s], 1 page, 8vo, 180 x 115mm. (7 x 4 1/2in.) integral blank leaf , inscribed on verso of drawing by Jessie Conrad (the author's wife): "To Richard Curle, With much affection from his friend Jessie Conrad. This little sketch was made by Joseph Conrad during his writing hours, some thirty two years ago. It came into my possession after our marriage and required even greater care, than those early M.S., to preserve it from destruction by its Author."--HARDY, THOMAS. Two autograph letters signed ("T. Hardy") to an unnamed editor and to the literary agent William Morris Colles, respectively, Max Gate, Dorchester, 24 October 1894 and 20 March 1909, together 2 pages, 8vo, integral blank leaves, two punch holes in first letter touching a word, a "Received" stamp on second. In the first letter Hardy declines to contribute to a new magazine: "...I have lately entered into an arrangement for some future writing which will occupy me for a long time to come..." In the second Hardy is "unable to entertain" a "proposal": "...I have no such story, & I would not on any account make an agreement before a novel was written."--MEREDITH, GEORGE. Autograph letter signed (in full) to "Dear Madam," Box Hill, Dorking, 4 September 1907, 2 1/2 pages, 8vo : "Your letter is one of the rewards of an author who has tried to give of his best, & counts among the indemnities for his having worked long under a [?cloud], if that be an evil..."--ROBERTS, Lord. Autograph letter signed ("Roberts") to "My dear Hichens," Grove Park, Kingsbury, 4 June 1895, 2 pages, 8vo , arranging to have "these papers" picked up, as he is "going to Aldershot to see the Review..."
