- 68 words penned in black ink on a sheet of cream stock 7 inches high by 4-1/2 inches wide. Signed "Yours truly / George Linley". The edges of the letter are slightly darkened & there is a tear to the bottom edge with a small piece out of the mid-section, affecting 1 letter of the text. The blank verso is darkened and there are pieces of paper & tape adhering to it where the letter has been removed from an album. Good. "I told you some while back, that I had written a little piece 'The Trunkmaker' and which I intended for Mr. Keeley -- you then requested me to send it in to the theatre, which I did through Mr. Peake about 10 days ago."The verse writer and musical composer George Linley (1798-1865), wrote and composed several hundred songs between 1830 and 1865. Some of his most popular ballads of the period were "Thou art gone from my gaze", "Song of the Roving Gipsey", "Constance", "Minnie", and the music for Robert Burns' poem "The Jolly Beggars". He wrote the English words to "God Bless the Prince of Wales".
