SYDNEY MORGAN
The author sends a dinner invitation to an acquaintance
Autograph Note signed: "Sydney Morgan", 1 p, 4½x5¾, affixed to thick paper of same size. No place, no date. To "Dear Sir". In full: "Will you give Sir Charles & myself the pleasure of your company at dinner on Saturday next the 18th 6 o clock - almost a family party. Yours most truly. [illegible address at bottom]" Ango-Irish novelist Sydney Morgan (1781-1859) took London by storm with The Wild Irish Girl (1806), a paean of praise to Ireland. She became the companion of the Marquess of Abercorn, who in 1812 arranged her marriage to a surgeon, Sir Thomas Charles Morgan. As a married woman she continued to produce verses, essays and novels, including O'Donnel (1814) - considered her best novel - and France (1817), a breezy, journalistic survey of French society and politics which drew criticism for its praise of the French revolution. Ink note (unknown hand) at top. Lightly soiled. Irregularly cut at bottom. Mounting adhesive shows through faintly along ¾-inch strip on right and lower edges. Otherwise, fine condition.
