DICKENS, CHARLES. Autograph Letter Signed, to E.S. Morgan (“My Dear

Sir”), returning a manuscript offered for publication in Mr. Sennett’s paper [not present]. 1

page, oblong 4to; moderate marginal discoloration from prior matting touching signature,

holograph recipient on verso, folds.

Doughty Street [London],“Tuesday Morning”

[2,000/3,000]

As we have not room for Mr. Sennett’s paper, in consequence of its arriving so late in the month, I

return it as you desire.Will you be good enough to leave instructions in the office that if ‘Aliquis’ or

anybody else sends about papers offered for the Miscellany, the reply is that his communication will be

answered on the last day of the month?”
