The Westminster Budget , 7th April 1893, reported the Prince of Wales's visit to the workhouse where he admired the framed portrait of his brother: 'The Prince of Wales took advantage of his visit to Lord and Lady Brooke at Easton Lodge to inspect the Dunmow Union Workhouse. The Prince examined every department of the building, including the infirmary and casual ward; the clothing, bedding, and dietary were also made the subject of careful inquiry; and before leaving His Royal Highness made the following memorandum in the visitors' book : "Have visited this Union with great interest, and found everything in excellent order. Albert Edward" - The Prince expressed himself particularly pleased with the appearance of the children, thoroughly approving the action of the Guardians in not providing them with a charity garb and in sending them to elementary schools in the town. His Royal Highness noticed with pleasure a portrait of the Duke of Connaught in a gold frame, upon which is inscribed"'Hospital-Sergeant C. Roydhouse, from H.R.H. Prince Arthur. April 15, 1874".'

Elgar (Edward, 1857-1934). Sea-Pictures, a cycle of five songs for Contralto... Op. 37, full orchestral score, 1st edition, Boosey & Co., 1900, signed presentation inscription from the composer in black ink to title, 'A.J. Jaeger, with much love from Edward Elgar: Dec: 25: 1900 "Waryn Wisdime wynked uppon Mede" [Piers the Plowman]', publisher's purple ink name stamp at foot of title, later ballpoint pen ownership inscription of H.J. Hoyland of Painswick to front free endpaper, dated 1974, printed auction description [Sotheby's New York, 1964] tipped onto endpaper facing, contemporary blue half calf over cloth, gilt-titled spine, rubbed, split at foot of upper joint, slim folioQty: (1)NOTESA fine association copy. August Johannes Jaeger (1860-1909) met Elgar through his employment at the London music publisher Novello, becoming a close friend and advisor. Due to Jaeger's advice Elgar reworked many famous musical passages, including the climax of The Dream of Gerontius and the finale to his Variations on an Original Theme (Enigma Variations) . Jaeger was most notably immortalised in the famous ninth variation "Nimrod" in the last-mentioned work, recalling a conversation on the slow movements of Beethoven (Nimrod was a biblical hunter, a pun on the German word for hunter, Jäger). 'Despite the tireless activity of Jaeger and a dedicated Novello team working on Elgar's behalf, there were many moments of distrust between Elgar and the firm. The first occurred over the Variations, when Novello demanded what Elgar considered an unreasonable fee for an extra orchestral rehearsal at the time of the first performance. He expressed his "disgust". The disagreement was compounded by Elgar's disappointment over the royalty to be paid for the piano version of the work. The immediate result was that Sea Pictures was published by Boosey. They secured also, to the dismay of Jaeger, the Cockaigne overture, and the Pomp and Circumstance Marches Nos. 1 and 2', The Cambridge Companion to Elgar , edited by Daniel M. Grimley & Julian Rushton (Cambridge University Press, 2004) page 28. Dr. H.J. Hoyland was Chairman of the Gloucester Festival and loosely inserted in the book is a typed letter signed to him from Brian Trowell, Heather Professor of Music at the University of Oxford, 14 June 1993. In the letter Trowell discusses the possible meaning of the Piers Plowman quote and suggests, 'The citation underlines Elgar's vision of himself as a humble man of merit whom the great and good passed over, and joins the others from langland that I did manage to discover...'.
