*Fortescue (Adrian Henry Timothy Knottesford, 1874-1923). A group of 56 letters and related, 1907-1922, but mostly 1908-12, all to Mrs May Crickmer, including 49 autograph letters signed (2 pencil) and 5 typed letters signed, plus 1 'certificate' in the form of a letter and 1 postcard, the earliest letters addressing May Crickmer as Madame, then May, and quickly becoming the pet name 'Scratchcat', written in an exceptionally neat calligraphic hand throughout, the earliest letters from Leys Avenue, Letchworth, Hertfordshire, but the majority from St Hugh, Letchworth, one letter with a few musical bars, two with illustrations, the majority of letters chatty, affectionate and flirtatious, occasionally referring to May's husband Courtenay and meetings with them, his feelings for her, etc., e.g. (5 August 1910): 'You can see then three layers in my heart. At the bottom, much deepest and greatest of all, is my love for my dear Scratchcat. Over this is a layer of anger because I think you were not nice on the boat. Over this again is a layer of beautiful Christian charity that tells me that very likely it was all my fault - or partly my fault - and that in any case I must not be horrid and unkind to you. And these layers are white, green and red like the Bulgarian flag. Here is one more point. When you tell Courtenay what I said yesterday you will not be generous or even just if you say that I admitted myself that I was angry because on the boat you had not taken enough notice of me. That is putting it in the worst possible light for me. What I really think is that you were disagreeable in many ways and so spoiled the pleasure of the holiday', the letter ending typically, 'Dear, I love you very much always really. Your loving Adrian', the final letter written from St Andrew's Hospital in 1922 shortly before Fortescue's death, 'It is coming quite soon now. I am waiting for it. They have done all sorts of queer things to me, including painting me a cheerful and elegant yellow I have your cross here all my love to you always, dear, and to Courtenay', a total of approximately 140 pp., mostly 8vo, plus 4 of the original envelopes, plus a photo album compiled by Fortescue, 1909-10, including photographs of St Hugh, Letchworth, May Crickmer and others, sepia-toned platinum prints, mostly 13 x 8 cm and similar, a total of 83 photographs mounted mostly two to a page on 24 leaves with neat ink caption beneath, contemporary cloth, a little rubbed and soiled, 4to Adrian Fortescue was an English Roman Catholic priest who was an influential liturgist, artist, calligrapher, composer, polyglot, amateur photographer, Byzantine scholar, and adventurer.
