Note: Included in the volume are transcripts of certain letters from Sir George Trevelyan to Sir Edmund Gosse, the originals of which are bound with a suppressed pamphlet entitled "Letters to Pauline, Lady Trevelyan" from Algernon Charles Swinburne". In a letter dated 6 June 1909, Trevelyan writes: "... I cannot refrain from writing to you about your "Father and Son" which I have just read, - very slowly, and with great and unalloyed interest and delight. It is quiet unique. Nothing struck me more than the perfect subordination of every topic, in length and selection, to the main theme of the book. I had expected, some gloom and dourness, but there is a spirit of exquisite culture and humanity under a most singular set of conditions ...". Cannot accept invitation for the Royal Literary Fund; pleasure in reading "Father and Son"; question about the Earl of Bristol in 1779; visit by Gosse; six transcripts about Gosse's biography of Swinburne (five of the originals bound with "Letters to Pauline
Lady Trevelyn from ... Swinburne, 1916" in the Brotherton Collection); Sir George Young and Swinburne; the Posthumous Poems; Gladstone and High Anglicans; the "Victorian Agony", the winter of 1861 in Rome with Odo Russell; Professor Puccio, Swinburne and Mazzini; agreement with Gosse's views on Henry James and other writers; life of Bright. Two letters from Lord Sanderson on Odo Russell are included.

Note: Inserted in A.C. Swinburne's "Letters to Pauline, Lady Trevelyan", 1916. Gen., SWINBURNE. Concerning Swinburne's letters to Pauline, Lady Trevelyan - sends all he regards as publishable; those he has retained do not relate to drinking; astonished that the letters have been published in pamphlet form and not reproduced in the biography only, as he desires; thanks Goose for sending the letters and thinks they will be of great interest.
