See his entry in the Oxford DNB. In addition to being the de facto editor of Edmund Yates's 'World', the recipient ('Broadley Pasha') was a renowned autograph collector and shady social figure. Scott's handwriting is not entirely legible. ONE: 'Wednesday', dated by Broadly 'March 1887.' 1p, 12mo. In good condition, with glue from mount adhering to the blank reverse. Folded once. Signed 'Clement Scott'. On the question of 'the letter from the impertinent idiot Mr James Runciman' he comments: 'He thinks that calling a man "Tommy Rot" is a complaint! I conclude that he must be a madman'. The letter concludes: 'I hope that [today?] his master will be in prision'. TWO: 2 October 1901. 2pp, 12mo. The two leaves, each with a mourning border, are attached by a strip of tape, and with more tape from mount adhering to the blank reverse of the second leaf. Otherwise in good condition, lightly aged and folded once. Signed 'CS'. (With regard to the content of this letter it is worth noting that Broadly had fled to the continent after the 1889 Cleveland Street Scandal, and had ended up in Belgium, where the following year he was editing the English-language 'Belgian News'.) Begins 'My dear AMB / I think it is very silly to write as you do and wilfully to misconstrue me / It is perfectly true I was invited to dine at Liverpool Street before the Belgian Expedition'. There follows a passage in which he says he has 'nothing to disguise', having been followed out into 'a passage [?] by a waiter who thought I intended to "bilk" him'. 'But what does it matter: I did not complain. The complaint comes from you a [?] person I have not injured you in any way.' He concludes: 'Please god we shall meet and that often. I think of you with nothing but kindness.' Also present is a slip of paper on which Scott has written: 'P.S / Have you any 'Harris' news [presumably relating to Frank Harris] to give me for my Friday Column. If so kindly send it on at once / CS'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. Bifolium. Twenty-two lines of text. In good condition, lightly discoloured and worn. Folded for postatge. The addressee's name is unclear. Signed 'Clement Scott'. Begins 'If the article on the Gaiety has to be cut - they are [?] cut sometimes on Sundays - please ask them as a special favour not to cut the remarks about the wonderful song "The Bogie man." I know it is wrong to prophesy but this song will bring [fortune?] to the Burlesque and no one has touched on it as yet.' He could 'do "La Cycle"', but does not want 'to interfere with these comic operas unless B[?] permits it'. He continues: 'You will see from my Gaiety article that I am not ignorant of the effect of music on the profanum vulgus but of course I have no executive power'. He can 'describe music', but cannot talk about 'contrapuntal passages', and doesn't think it is wanted 'on the comic stage'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. The postcards are bromide prints, and 9 x 14 cm. The two identical images of Scott, dressed for the theatre, with curled moustache and flower in his buttonhole, are both inscribed. In the bottom margin of one he has written 'late of the D. T.'; in the same position on the other, and rather poignantly considering his later history, 'Remember me / Clement Scott / 1902'. The former card is addressed by Scott on the reverse, with Ingatestone postmark dated 27 February 1904, to 'Mr S. Le Sage / Maisonette / Ingatestone / Essex'. In her photograph Mrs Scott is also dressed for the theatre, with fur wrap and muff. At top left she has written 'May-Day / 1906', and beneath the portrait: 'Affectionate greetings from / yours Margaret [sic] Clement Scott'. The card dated by Scott to 1902 has a central horizontal crease; the other two cards are in good condition, lightly aged and worn. See image.

2pp., 8vo. In good condition, on lightly aged and worn paper. The letter has been marked up in manuscript for publication, with the heading: 'Mr. Clement Scott: A Contradiction.' [last two words amended from 'An Explanation'] The letter begins: 'My Solicitors who advised me that the paragraph in your last issue connecting my name directly with a slanderous rumour to the effect that a well know dramatic critic had been bribed by a theatrical manager has handed me your letter of date. | In it you say "I am willing to insert any contradiction of the rumours referred to which Mr Clement Scott may wish to address to me.' Scott continues: 'My answer is that the rumour is base, unjustified and absolutely false. I should have thought my service of 35 years in a public position would have saved me from such unwarrantable slander but it seems to me that devotion to the drama in these days only increases the spite of the envious hangers on to its skirts'. He offers a reward for assistance in discovering the 'originator of this slander' and 'very formidable and disgraceful conspiracy'. In the final paragraph he criticises Austin Fryer for not having 'the pluck or moral courage' to retract, after inadvertently 'uttering [the] libel'.
