Very slight wear and discoloring along edges, near fine. Thomas Cadell, the elder was a bookseller and publisher. Apprenticed to the great London bookseller and publisher Andrew Millar of the Strand, in 1765 Cadell became Millar's partner, and in 1767 he took over the business. His publishing company brought out the best books of the day, publishing writers such as Robertson, Gibbon, and Blackstone. Cadell was one of the original members of the famous dining club of booksellers which met monthly at the Shakespeare Tavern in Wych Street, Strand. Cadell retired with a fortune in 1793 and was succeeded by his only son Thomas Cadell, the younger.

The subject of this letter is Huntingford's 'Pindari Carmina', 'excudit R. Watts sumptibus T. Cadell et W. Davies', published in London in 1814. Watts had been made Printer to the University of Cambridge in 1802, resigning in 1809 because, as Stokes notes in his 'Cambridge Stationers, Printers, Bookbiinders, &c' (1919), 'the Press did not prosper under his rule, although, when he left Cambridge, he did good work as a printer of Oriental volumes'. Between around 1812 and 1815 he was working in Broxbourne. In 1816 he moved to London, where he established the Oriental Type-Foundry, Temple Bar. 2pp., 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Huntingford begins by reporting that he 'received the clean sheets' that morning, and by apologising for sending an overweight frank. He continues: 'As this is almost the last time I shall have occasion to write to you, I take the present opportunity to thank you for the ready attention you have paid to my directions in the course of the Work, and to congratulate you on the credit that work will do to the Broxbourne Press, from the beauty of the Types & Paper, and, generally speaking from the great correctness with which it is executed.' In a long postscript he states that he will soon send what 'remains of the Work': 'the Dissertation, the additional Notes from Benedict, & the list of Errata [] The remaining clean sheets can be sent in franks.' The postscript concludes: 'The sooner the Work is done, the better; as I believe the school at Winchester is waiting for it. [ Huntingford was a Wykehamist ] Let me know how long it will take to knock up & bind the copies of the work, which you intend to send out, after the printing is finished.'.

1p., 4to. On aged paper, with damage and discoloration to one margin. Eliza Urquhart begins her letter: 'Gentlemen, | Mr Urquhart has desired me to acquaint you that he thinks it would be adviseable immediately to see Mr Spotswood [i.e. Spottiswoode, then an employee of the book's printer Andrew Strahan] on the subject of accelerating the printing of his work, as from the present tardiness with which the proofs are sent, he thinks the Season will inevitably be lost'. Her husband has, she continues, 'so often urged this point, when he returns the proofs, that he cannot with any propriety say more on the subject.' Davies 'may probably think it right, to suggest the necessity of greater expedition'. She ends by explaining that 'Mr Urquhart would have written but has noly lately been declared out of danger from a long & desperate fever'. At the head of the letter is a note, presumbaly by Davies, dated 7 May 1803, and reading: '2D will be sent by this day's Post and will be the fifth sheet sent this week. - There are between seven and eight sheets yet to send of which one will be sent every day.'.

2pp, 12mo. Bifolium, addressed on reverse of second leaf to 'Messs. Cadell & Davies'. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper from mount adhering to one edge. An interesting document, providing an insight into the world of Georgian publishing. Without preamble or salutation, reads: 'This work, in point of style, composition, & sentiment everything, in short, in which the writer's merit is concerned, is much below mediocrity. But whether its subject, & the side it takes in party, might not at the present moment gain it some public favour, is what I cannot answer. The author certainly conceives it to be a happy stroke at the times; & he has done all in his power by a full portion of political bigotry to make it suit its purpose. From the slight examination I have given it, it appears to contain nothing new in a historical view. | J. A.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

Adolphus's letter, addressed to 'T. Cadell Esqr.', is 1p, 12mo, and on the recto of the first leaf of a bifolium. A nice artefact of publishing in Georgian London. The reference in the letter to Cadell's 'proposal' concerns his firm's terms for publishing a three-volume continuation of Adolphus's 'History of England from the Accession of George III to the Conclusion of Peace in 1783' (1802). Cadell's memorandum setting out his proposal fills the whole of the reverse of the first leaf, with one line extending to the recto of the second. The reverse of second leaf is laid down on part of leaf from album. In fair condition, on aged paper, with slight staining to second leaf from glue from mount. Folded twice. Adolphus, who from Cadell's memorandum opened negotiations for the work in a letter of 9 May, writes: 'I am sorry we parted so suddenly today. I should like to hear, at least, what you wished to propose. If you please, I will call on you some morning in my way from Westminster; or, if you are passing this way between 4 & 5 oClock, I shall be glad to see you.' Cadell's memorandum fills the whole of the reverse, beginning: 'N B: Called June 10 - and proposed as follows for the Copyright of each Volume.' He gives details of proposed payments for each of the three volumes, amounting to £500, 'to be paid 12 Mos. after publication'. After a reference to 'Copies to be presented to Mr A', Cadell continues: 'Could not ascertain at what time the first Portion (ending with the Peace of Amiens) would be sufficiently prepared for the Printing to begin.' Beneath this Cadell notes that the negotiations were not successful: 'N B: This proposal was not acceded to, and all further conference upon the subject ceased'. Between 1840 and his death in 1845 Adolphus published seven of the eight volumes of a new edition of his history, with the title amended to state that it spanned the period 'from the Accession to the Decease of King George the Third'.

The Athenian Letters, primarily written by Hardwicke and his brother Charles, enjoyed considerable vogue on the publication in 1781 of the second edition (a first edition of ten copies had appeared in 1741). The present item relates to a projected third volume of the 'Miscellaneous State Papers', the first two volumes of which had been published by Strahan and Cadell in 1778. John Topham (later Librarian to the Archbishop of Canterbury) and Thomas Astle worked together on the public records at Westminster. The present item is 1p, 4to. Bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged, with thin strip of paper adhering to reverse of blank second leaf. Folded three times. The letter reads: 'Dear Astle/ | Would You be so good, as to sound Mr Topham if It wd be inconvenient to Him to overlook the 3d Vol. of the State Papers, as He did the Athenian Letters? There is only one Part, in wch his Assistance will be wanted, & That I can fully instruct him upon in one or 2 Conversations. The Rest I can go thro my Self. Cadel is not so Ready at finding out Coadjutors as I expected One of his large Dealings wd be. - I must defer setting about the Work, till my Return to Town.' Postscript reads: 'Compts to Mrs A: & Fire-side.' From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

4to. 2 pp. The London-based publishers Cadell & Davies write to the Scottish portrait painter Henry Raeburn (1756-1823) about their "British Gallery of Contemporary Portraits" (1809): "We [.] were much pleased to find that you approved the two prints we sent you. We are aware that the success of the work in question must entirely depend upon the manner in which it is executed, and can safely assure you that neither pains nor expence shall be spared to make it deserving of support [.] We hope to send you a Copy of the first number, very shortly [.] We think that little or no risque will attend the sending the pictures to London by sea, provided they be carefully packed in boxes, and secured from the danger of the sea water by oil-skin coverings [.] and we, of course, understand that all the expence and risque of the pictures being sent to London and returned to you, is to be borne by us". - Further asking for some of Raeburn's best works: "The Portraits of Dr. Blair [i. e. the theologian Hugh Blair, 1718-1800], Dr. A. Ferguson [i. e. the historian Adam Ferguson, 1723-1816], & Mr. John Home [i. e. the playwright John Home, 1722-1808], which we mentioned, are all at Sir John Macpherson's here, and we therefore concluded that they were the originals - that of Mr Mackenzie [i. e. the lawyer Henry Mackenzie, 1745-1831] is the one you painted a few years since, but we should be very glad to have the other which you have done lately. Mr. Jeffrey [i. e. the lawyer Francis Jeffrey, 1773-1850], Professors Stewart [i. e. the philosopher Dugald Stewart, 1753-1828] and Playfair [i. e. the mathematician John Playfair, 1748-1819], Lord Avontown [i. e. the lawyer Robert Blair, Lord Avontoun, 1741-1811], Mr. Clerk of Eldin [i. e. the judge John Clerk, Lord Eldin, 1757-1832], Sir John Sinclair [i. e. the economist John Sinclair, First Baronet of Ulbster, 1754-1835], would all be highly acceptable to us [.]". - Mounted to paper tab.
