Although it does not state so explicitly, Froude's entry in the Oxford DNB appers to suggests that the Margaret Froude who edited his work after his death was the same daughter as the Georgina Margaret Froude (1850-1935) who married William Mallock. 1p, 12mo. On first leaf of a bifolium. In good condition, lightly aged. The recipient is not named. Addressed to 'Dear Madam' and signed 'Margaret Froude'. She cannot alter the opinion that she expressed to 'Mr Longman' (the London publisher). She considers it 'unjust to an author to quote passages without their context which, when standing alone are unworthy of his other writings'. The writings of 'Mr. Carlyle' are 'full of beautiful passages relative to your subject', and she hopes it will be easy for the recipient to find 'others to take the place of the two to which I take exception'.…

3pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, the blank reverse of the second leaf laid down on a leaf removed from an album. Written in a hurried hand, with the meaning unclear in parts. The letter would appear to discuss the republican and Carlist insurrections against Amadeo I, the only King of Spain from the House of Savoy, who replaced the deposed Isabella II in 1870, and reigned until 1873. Froude begins by explaining that his silence has been due to the fact that he has been 'out of town for the Summer'. He is extremely sorry to have missed Sellars, as he 'must have much to say of extreme interest'. The letter continues: 'The State of Spain is the reductio ad asbsurdum of the nonsense about the rights of man which has been preached in our ears for a Century | England after being Gladstonized is only not as Spain because she has trained for many long ages in another school. And we shall be as Spain unless we open our eyes.' He fears that Sellars himself 'will have suffered seriously, & there is no immediate prospect of a change for the better.' The passage that follows is not entirely clear, but appears to read: 'I am growing to hope that the mountaineers will [as?] at any rate thrash the café haunting armies playing Bull fight [hanging?] rascals that have been the scandal & torment of the Country.' The letter concludes: 'Whatever happens afterwards we shall be in London in September. I hardly know whether or no to hope that we shall find you there'.…
