'He used to go and stay at Jamaica Inn…' DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. A lengthy A.L.S., Daphne, four pages, 4to, Alexandria, Egypt, 7th November 1936, to Foy [Quiller-Couch]. Du Maurier writes a social letter to her close friend, expressing her sympathy that her correspondent's brief stay in London 'gave you such a poor colour' and adding 'It makes me tremble to think what Mother will say to my appearance, after an Egyptian summer!'. Du Maurier states that she intends to return to Plymouth around the 28th January and asks 'Perhaps you could meet me at Plymouth, and we could train it quietly to Fowey' and also comments on her health and other matters, 'I'm now feeling tons better, and am inclined to wonder if the height at Cyprus had anything to do with my excessive sickness. We've returned to beastly heat, I really did think it would begin to cool in November. I thought of you on the 5th and wondered if you had a bonfire at the Farm. I insisted on having one in barracks, and it was quite a good show, with chestnuts and baked potatoes handed in a barrow afterwards! Have you made any sloe gin? Apparently they've tried a new recipe at Ferryside.' Du Maurier further recounts a tragic incident relating to a Major in the Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry and his family, whom she knew in Frimley and was very fond of, 'The most appalling tragedy took place this year. He died of acute appendix, 3 weeks before their baby was born, and the poor little wife has been left almost pennyless (sic) and heartbroken. A Fund has been started as a memorial, to insure for the future education of the little boy, and just for interest's sake I enclose you a chit (no longer present) about it, in case you know any D.C.L.I. people who might be interested. It is the most awful thing, and they were so devoted. He used to go and stay at Jamaica Inn, such a nice man'. Du Maurier also looks ahead to Christmas, 'Would you and Mother and Father eat Jaffa oranges if I sent you some for Xmas? I couldn't bear you to have anything Egyptian! But the Palestine oranges are rather good, and the grape fruit too' and writes of her experiences in Egypt, 'I have spent a week in Cairo, and there is very little to choose between the two cities. All the Cairo thoroughfares are like Hammersmith Broadway. I was taken to the famous Moushe or Bazar, and found it an inferior Burlington Arcade. The view at sunset from the Citadell (sic) was impressive, but of course just every post card that ever came out of Egypt. I feel rather sorry for Egypt. A dull and not particularly interesting country has been so overwritten and discribed (sic) that it has lost any genuine feeling it once may have had. You ought to read a book “In The Steps of The Master” by H. V. Morton about Palastine. It really does make one want to visit those parts.' With some small areas of paper loss to the upper corners and edges of the pages, and a few to the folds of the first two pages, now professionally repaired and only slightly affecting a few words of text and not the signature. G Foy Quiller-Couch - daughter of British writer Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863-1944), and a life-long friend of Du Maurier. Indeed, Du Maurier was accompanied by Foy Quiller-Couch when she became inspired with the storyline for her novel Jamaica Inn, mentioned in the present letter. In 1930 the two ladies were staying at Jamaica Inn and went riding on Bodmin Moor. They became lost in bad weather conditions and apparently sheltered for some time in a derelict cottage on the moor but were eventually led back to Jamaica Inn by their horses. Du Maurier found herself in Egypt as a result of her marriage to the British Army Officer Lieutenant General Frederick Browning (1896-1965) in 1932. Browning had been promoted to Lieutenant Colonel in February 1936 and was appointed commanding officer of the 2nd Battalion, Grenadier Guards, which was deployed to Egypt in 1936 and returned in December 1937.
BLACKMORE R. D.: (1825-1900) English Novelist of Lorna Doone: A Romance of Exmoor (1869). A.L.S., R. D. Blackmore, on one side of a correspondence card, Teddington, 3rd February 1892, to 'Gentlemen'. Blackmore informs his correspondents, in part, 'I thank you for your letter, which I will bear in mind. But I dare say you will understand that I fear to sign an engagement for a work so far in front' adding that he already has work which, 'has been pledged, & will take all my writing time.' With light age toning, otherwise VG
O'CASEY SEAN: (1880-1964) Irish Dramatist. A.L.S., Sean, one page, 4to, Torquay, Devon, 8th December 1959, to Lewis Funke, Drama Editor at The New York Times. O'Casey thanks his correspondent for a gift, remarking 'Yes, the masks came toharborsafely. I've been wearing one o' nights ever since - refreshing, close-fitting, effective, & much better than a handkerchief. Thank you dear fellow….' and continuing, 'I've been busy, and it has now become a struggle to read or to write, but newer spectacles given by a specialist have furnished some aid to the surviving eye'. O'Casey also enquires 'By the way, how is Brooks and Oriana?... I did write Brooks some time ago; but didn't like to bother him again. Curious how helpless we are when another is ill. Each has to bear his own pain, it can't be shared…' VG Lewis B. Funke (1912-1992) American Drama Editor and Critic for The New York Times. Brooks Atkinson (1894-1984) American Theatre Critic who worked for The New York Times from 1925-60.
