SCOTT (WALTER)Autograph letter signed ('Walter Scott') to Peter Buchan ('Dear Mr Buchan'), thanking him for the '...excellent stockings... for here we can get none but what are wrought upon machines which are not half as good and comfortable as them wrought by the hands...', enclosing £1 as a subscription to his new work and advising him to take the advice of '...an old stager...', advising him to ensure he has enough subscribers and warning that he may make a loss ('...an onerous business...'), ending by wishing him well ('...I am sorry to say any thing which may appear discouraging but Mr Murray was of the same opinion... There is a fashion in books...'), 2 pages on a bifolium, watermark 'G.Wilmot 1827', dust-staining, small holes at folds repaired with tape, some water-staining, integral address panel with red wax seal, 4to (225 x 186mm.), Abbotsford, 11 November [1830]Footnotes:ADVICE FROM AN 'OLD STAGER': Peter Buchan (1790-1854) was a prolific printer and publisher working out of a small printing shop in Peterhead. An avid collector of songs and ballads collected during his walking tours of north-east Scotland, he published his Gleanings of Scotch, English, and Irish, Scarce Old Ballads in 1825. The publication brought him to the attention of Walter Scott '...who with fine condescension, referred to him as 'the hirsute poet of Peterhead'... Scott's coolness may have derived from the fact that Buchan sought to establish the north-east rather than the borders as the locus classicus of 'tradition' in Scotland...' (William Donaldson, ODNB). A further two volumes, edited by Scott's associates David Laing and Charles Kirkpatrick Sharpe were published as Ancient Ballads and Songs of the North of Scotland in 1828.Seemingly unpublished, the present letter appears to be Walter Scott's belated response to two letters from Peter Buchan ('...I have been very ungrateful in not thanking you...'), which serve to confirm the dating. Both are listed in the Millgate Union Catalogue of Walter Scott Correspondence online; the first, dated 9 October 1830, sending the present of a half-dozen pairs of lambswool stockings referred to here (NLS MS 3914) and the second follow-up letter of 8 November sending a prospectus for his work (NLS MS 3915).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

(3)Footnotes:Provenance Acquired by the Edmondson family of Baltimore and thence by family descent.FootnoteThe crest appears to be that of the GOUGH family and the family is identified in many indexes as of Ireland and Somerset. However Burkes General Armory leads to an identification for the GOUGH family of Oldfallings and Perry Hall, Staffordshire.Blazon of the crest: a boars head couped, pierced by a spearHarry Dorsey Gough (1745-1808) was a prominent 18th-century merchant, planter, and patron of the fledgling Methodist Church in Baltimore Maryland, in the early United States.Harry's father was the English merchant Thomas Gough, who emigrated to the United States prior to the outbreak of its Revolution against Britain. As his new home was near Patapsco Ferry and his new wife had extensive holdings in the colonies, Thomas would later side with the revolutionaries against the Crown. Thomas had already married the American Sophia Dorsey, who bore him Harry on January 28, 1745, in Annapolis.In addition to his father's wealth, Harry inherited £70,000 at a young age and became a successful merchant. The money came from his English half-brother John William Gough (1729–1767), by Thomas Gough's first wife Ann Brooksby. John's year-old son was subsequently brought to America and raised in Maryland. Confusingly, this nephew was also named Harry Dorsey Gough (1766–1807) and his son (1793–1867) would later also bear the same name.The eldest Harry Dorsey Gough's estate eventually comprised 2,000 acres (810 ha) along the Great Gunpowder River northeast of Baltimore. Much of this was Corbin Lee's 1,000-acre (400 ha) plantation The Adventure, which Gough purchased for £5,000 in 1774 from Archibald Buchanan after Corbin's death in 1773. He renamed it Perry Hall in honour of his family's ancestral home in Staffordshire and completed construction of its 16-room manor in 1776. Many years later, modern Baltimore's Bel Air Road (U.S. Route 1) was known as 'Gough's Road' or 'Perry Hall Road'.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
