8vo. 3 pp. on bifolium. Mounted on backing paper. To a friend by extending an invitation to a modest meal and philosophizing about the enjoyment of drinks and meals in old age: "No! [.] I can not deprive myself of the pleasure of gazing on such an act of devotion & of strengthening my feeble faith by the sight of one who can not be led astray by the fleshpots of Egypt. Indeed had I thought of the day it was I would have hastened or postponed the banquet, but you know in what a benighted state most of us unkalendared saints are. I promise you fish boiled plain fresh & salt, as sinless & soul saving a dinner as man can eat. It will do us good to behold self-denial for principle's sake. I've known men in their latter days not to eat of various things & to eschew divers drinks because their holy corporate would be hurt thereby but it is rare indeed to find one repair from anything because the abstinence is good for his immortal particle [.]". - With collector's note in ink to backing paper.

Manuskript / Papierantiquität Signiert
According to Russell s entry in the Oxford DNB, while reporting on the Civil War, he was described by one American newspaper as the most famous newspaper correspondent the world has ever seen'. The inscription on his memorial in St Paul s Cathedral calls him 'the first and greatest of War Correspondents'. He coined the phrase thin red line , was instrumental in the sending of Florence Nightingale to the Crimea, and is said to have written the report that inspired Tennyson to write The Charge of the Light Brigade . The recipient was the proprietor of the Hotel and Restaurant Henry IV, Saint-Germain-en-Laye (which, according to an advertisement in Galignani s New Paris Guide for 1879 , was The only Hotel on the Terrace. / Highly recommended, and old-established / Louis XIV. was born in this House on the 5th Sept. 1638. ). The present item is 2pp, 12mo. In fair condition, aged and worn, with thin strip of glue from mount along the gutter. Folded twice. Signed W H Russell . He enquires after un petit apartment libre pour le lundi ou mardi en cas de besoin , at a price convenable à ma fortune . He describes the specifications he requires before noting that M. de Blonetz ma dit ce que j ai entendu avec plaisir que vous avez garde des souvenirs aimables de moi depuis cet temp terrible 70. 71 . In a postscript he expresses anxiety that il y aura une grande foule à St Germain le lundi pour les courses . It may be that Russell attended the racing with the future King Edward VII: he was, as the Oxford DNB states, a member of the Prince of Wales's circle, though his relationship with the prince fluctuated, and he deplored the depravity and obscenity of some of his set .
