Abraham Hayward, English essayist and translator. His many friendships with significant figures in the literary and political circles of Victorian London resulted in this collection of correspondence. The Abraham Hayward Correspondence Files are chiefly made up of letters addressed to Abraham Hayward by various English writers, politicians and society figures between 1831 and 1884. Among the correspondents represented are: Lord Brougham, lord chancellor; John Wilson Croker, politician and writer; Isaac D'Israeli, writer; W. E. Gladstone, prime minister and author; Letitia Elizabeth Landon, poet; Edward Bulwer-Lytton, writer and politician; Lady Sydney (Owenson) Morgan, novelist and hostess; Count D'Orsay, man of fashion; Samuel Rogers, poet; and William Makepeace Thackeray, novelist. A few items in the Files are letters addressed to recipients other than Hayward, some apparently collected by him as autographs. less

John Singleton Copley, 1st Baron Lyndhurst, British politician. The John Singleton Copley, Baron Lyndhurst manuscript material in the Pforzheimer Collection consists of correspondence and one holograph list of notable people ("The Rev.d Gilbert Beresford / Lord Nelson / Horatio Bolton his Nephew / Lord Cholmondely / D Chaf[fe]y Master of Sidney ..."), the purpose of which is undetermined. As Lyndhurst was not in the habit of dating his letters, precise dates are difficult to figure; the bulk of the correspondence, however, bears watermarks dating between 1835 and 1837. Correspondents include: Lady Blessington, writer and literary hostess; Abraham Hayward, essayist and translator; Sir William Knighton, courtier and physician; and a few others. less
