Sender: Byron, George Gordon, 6th Baron Byron
Recipient: Murray, John
Letters: 3
Date(s): 28 May 1821 - 31 Mar 1822
Location: BC MS 19c Byron
Note: 1) 1p. 4to. The most interesting feature of this letter is the signature, a quaint monogram devised by Byron from his initial "B." Only very few of Byron's letters are signed with this monogram. The letter mentions the progress of Byron's tragedy "Sardanapalus", and also refers to the Hon. Douglas Kinnaird, Byron's friend and trustee.
2) 4pp. folio, signed "Byron". An unusually long letter, contains very definite instructions to John Murrary regarding the books Byron wishes to have sent. Byron also threatens to write a new "English Bards".
3) 1p. 4to. Attached is Byron's black seal, unbroken. This letter is signed "N.B." a signature of which Bryon was amusingly proud. Until the death of his mother-in-law, Byron's signature had to be either "Byron" or a single B, but when Lady Noel died, Byron had to take her family name under the terms of the marriage settlement. Hence the N.B. Byron used frequently to boast that only two persons of note were able to use these initials - Napoleon Bonaparte and himself.
