* Baden-Powell (Sir Robert, 1st Baron, 1857-1941). A long Autograph Letter Signed, ‘Wunhi’, Meerut, N.W.P., 22 October 1897, beginning: ’How really kind you are to write to me, dear Mrs [Compton] Turner. It is a good thing to have sympathising friends when one is a bit down on one's luck (a state of mind which is very rare with me). I had intended to worry you no more with nonsense till you came to Meerut – but I can't help myself when I get two such very kind and cheery letters backed with the promise of another from Miss Molly [Ellen Turner, daughter]. Somehow our letters have persistently crossed in the post which has involved an extra amount of correspondence (much enjoyed by me!). Well I have quite got over my feelings now, but in speaking my mind to the “most stupendous” at HeadQrs. I fear I have made them a little "stuffy" as the Naval slang has it…’, then talking of his boys’ improved health meaning that they will be working in earnest from the following week, describing how his broken finger has ‘mended sufficiently to let me play polo, and that is a great help to bearing this sleepy life’, talking of the inspection by General Grant due in November, and then of a play called ‘Minor Poet’ in which Miss Molly is invited to take part if she so chooses, the letter continued on 25th [October] saying that now as neither Miss Molly nor Miss Wheler are keen on the part the play will no doubt fall through and he will have to tell the authoress ‘we don’t want her silly play after all - and yet people wonder that I’m prematurely worn out and bald!’, then referring to Mrs Turner’s invitation to repeat Sunday dinners and how delighted he would be, ‘I sometimes go to Church i.e. away in the jungle (I was away all yesterday so) when I get the restless fever on me, and then I don’t get back till all hours … I should not wonder if such temptation as you hold out does not reclaim me from such bad habits…’, 12 pages on three sheets of DVC letterhead bifolia, a few spots and last page partly toned, 8vo (Qty: 1)NOTESFrom the Pamela Dugdale collection. Baden-Powell played the comic part of Wun-Hi in The Geisha in Meerut in 1897 with Mrs Ellen Turner's daughter, (also Ellen), playing the part of Molly Seamore. Thereafter many of Baden-Powell's letters to mother and daugher were signed 'Wunhi'.

But I shall hope to see you in London and to find you both well and flourishing. (I don't mean you alone, I'm talking of Mrs Turner too – so don't be so conceited!)

Autograph Letter Signed as ‘Wunhi’, Meerut, N.W.P., 27 October [1897?], [to Mrs Compton Turner], Plenty muchee welcome to all, from Wunhi – if it is any convenience to you please come over to the house for breakfast, lunch, tea, or dinner – or all, for your first day. Tell me the hour you prefer and the meal shall be ready. And, my wig, how glad Wunhi would be to see you to partake of it! Indeed if you don’t come to tea at least on Thursday he will feel really hurt. There will be nobody else there to criticise travel-stain etc. So come as you are…’, and saying that even if they arrive at 1am that ‘Soup will also be ready as I know how desirable it is on one’s arrival at that hour’, with faux Chinese signature as ‘Wunhi’, a few spots, together with a second similar autograph letter signed ‘Wunhi’, Meerut, 29 October 1897, [also to Mrs Turner], ’Herewith a piece of fakeer’s cloth and of the red that I think goes so well with it.

* Baden-Powell (Sir Robert, 1st Baron, 1857-1941). A long Autograph Letter Signed as ‘Wunhi’, Meerut, N.W.P., 8 October 1897, [to Mrs Compton Turner], ’I think you would have laughed as you see me yesterday evening. I had intended to go out to Mashobra in the afternoon (having arrived in Simla at daybreak) but I was waylaid by the theatre folk who were for making me take a part in "Sweetheart" – "Dress rehearsal on Saturday – performance on Monday & Tuesday-“ “What? And give up Bendochy? I’d rather die first!” So then they insisted that I might buy myself off by painting scenery and like the ass that I am, I gave in – put off Mashobra till today and started to work scene painting - and there I remained until after dark. Then I thought to come and make my peace with you (for I had not heard anything in reply to my prayer about Miss Molly and the Geisha) and I thought I was not in good odour, which to me is more painful than walking barefooted on knife-blades - and especially I wanted to call because, between ourselves, my visit to Simla is not really for the purpose of shooting birds, sketching, picnicking, etc., but to try and get medicine for my disease (i.e. roam-sickness) from my doctor (the Adjutant General)…’ , then telling of how he had gone to Southwood, ‘and while arranging my collar and smoothing my locks on the doorstep I heard music within, which I did not like to disturb so I sat down and listened to it, and I sat on and on listening, until “Auld Lang Syne” was played, and then the “Dead March in Saul”! - played jauntily too…’, four lines on page 5 heavily deleted in ink with bleeding to recto affecting text but not legibility on two lines, the rambling post script finishing vertically upwards on inner margin of page 5 also, a little spotting, a total of 8pp. on two bifolia of ‘DVC, Meerut N.W.P.’ letterhead, 8vo (Qty: 1)NOTESFrom the Pamela Dugdale collection.

But I would suggest you referring the matter to your Commissioner who is in a position to give you much help and advice on the subject’ (11 March 1920); thanking him for the copies of the troops annual report for 1920 and 1921, hoping that it will be possible for all his Scouts to attend camp in the summer, ‘With regard to the question of your Troop wearing a special badge, I fully sympathize in your desire to perpetuate the memory of that fine Scout – Arthur Noble, but it is out of my power to grant such a privilege as you suggest.

Early 5th century AD. A substantial gold Keller type 6 crossbow brooch, decorated with seven red garnets; with hollow pentagonal-section crossbar, three eight-sided finials, openwork scrolled plaques flanking the deep kidney-shaped section bow, tubular footplate with openwork scooped edges; hinged pin and V-section catchplate to the reverse closed with a mounting in red garnet; the bow ornamented with three mountings of garnets on each side in cloisonné style, and decorated for all its length on the central rib by an imitation-pearl pattern, also visible on the beaded collars of the three eight-sided finials; original pin still in place. See Brunšmid, V., Kameni Spomenici Hrvatskoga Narodnoga Muzeja u Zagrebu (Gravestone monuments in the National Croatian Museum of Zagreb), in Vjesnik Hrvatskoga Arheoloskoga drustva, X, 1910; Levi Pisetzky, R.,Storia del costume in Italia, 5 voll., Milano, 1964-1969; Keller, E., Die Spätrömische Grabfunde in Südbayern, Munchener Beitrage zur Vor-und Frühgeschichte 14, Munchen, 1971; Arrhenius, B., Merovingian Garnet Jewellery, Göteborg, 1985; Hattatt, R.

The brooch is of remarkable quality and technical accomplishment, both in its manufacture and in the working of the gems. This kind of fibula, well known as a 'crossbow brooch', was used by the Roman army from the last quarter of the third century until the sixth century AD. It was a signifier of military status, and simpler specimens in bronze are often found in the graves of soldiers from the 4th and 5th century AD. More precious specimens, in gold or gilt, such as this example, were reserved for officers. 38.33 grams, 80mm (3"). Property of a Spanish collector; acquired from an old Spanish collection, 2008; accompanied by an academic report by military specialist Dr Raffaele D'Amato. The brooch is of remarkable quality and technical accomplishment, both in its manufacture and in the cutting of the gemstones into angular pyramidal forms. This kind of fibula, well know as a 'crossbow brooch', was in use within the Roman army from the last quarter of the third century until the sixth century AD. It was an attribute of military status and simpler specimens in bronze are often found in the graves of soldiers of the 4th and 5th century AD. More precious specimens, in gold or gilded, such as this example were reserved for officers. Very fine condition. Rare.
