See his entry in the Oxford DNB. At his death in 1917, H. T. Beresford-Hope was Third Secretary at the British Legation at Athens; and he left the enormous sum of £67,167. Bifolium. In fair condition, lightly aged and worn. Folded twice for postage. Addressed to 'My dear Beresford-Hope' and signed 'H. Fisher'. Twenty-eight lines of text. He begins a gently teasing letter by stating that he is delighted to hear of Beresford-Hope's 'triumph in the Diplomatic Service examination', his wife joining him in sending congratulations. 'Herbert is a good man and moreover a man of a [sic] Balliol, and it is a distinction to have got ahead of him.' He presumes that Beresford-Hope is now 'the complete foreigner retaining only the slightest acquaintance with your native tongue'. He urges him to 'Become an ambassador if you like, the sooner the better, but do not plunge us into war, or in any way imitate the proceedings of that courteous but unwise gentleman, the late Duc de Grammont. Eradicate by your personal example the false maxim now so prevalent that England expects every diplomat to play polo.' He thinks that BH has 'a chance of going ahead, judging from the deplorable feebleness of so many of our Foreign Blue books, notably the recent collection of reports in Foreign Income boxes, compiled by the second secretaries of our legations.' He ends by inviting him to 'Come and see us when you are next this way.'.

See Fisher's entry, and those of Robert Lynd, in the Oxford DNB. On unillustrated post card, with printed letterhead. In fair condition, a trifle worn and discoloured, with one inky thumbprint (not over text) and a kink to one corner. Addressed by Fisher to 'Miss Mayra [sic] Lynd / 5 Keats Grove / Hampstead / NW.' Signed by Fisher with initials 'H F'. Reads: 'What charming verses! You might as easily have replied otherwise eg / Hola! un gant! / Bonnet rouges en avant! / A la Bourgeoisie / [?] choisie / Aux capitalistes / Farceurs, fumistes / [?] un gant de [?] / etc etc / H F'. The recipient writes the following lengthwise on the address side: 'H. A. L. Fisher, to whom I was a temporary daughter or niece at New College (while I was a Home-Student 1931-4) had urged me in verse not to cut off my long hair & I had replied "The hair remains - / "The virtue & the [bun?]" &c / & had gone on to ask him for a quote in praise of "The Bible to be read as Literature" which Heinemann were about to publish. No, that must have been after 1934. / M. Gaster 1987 / I must have left a glove behind at Thursby & written a verse.'.

Both items good, on lightly-aged paper. Letter One: 4to, 1 p. Begins 'The College today at its Special General Meeting did itself the honour of electing you to an Honorary Fellowship. We trust that it may not be unacceptable to you to be thus associated with our Society. There are no duties, save that of wearing a surplice in Chapel on Sundays and Feasts of the Church.' He thanks Gore for his 'generous words' of the previous day. Letter Two: 4to, 2 pp. He thanks him for his 'helpful letter about David' [Gore's son, the Conservative politician William David Ormsby-Gore, 5th Baron Harlech (1918-1985)], and consequently raises no objection 'to his being out of College in the Autumn', which 'may well prove to be the best thing for him'. The previous day David told Fisher 'that he was anxious to go into the House of Commons as soon as possible'. Fisher 'can see from his appreciation of Thucydides and de Tocqueville which is obviously genuine that his mind is taking a political shape.' He sees 'gleams of unusual promise about the boy', and thinks that 'As his physical strength improves and as the memories of those shocks to which you allude fade into the background [.] he will gain in confidence and concentration'. Characterises him as being at that time 'wayward, elusive, casual rather than idle, decidedly with occasional touches of brilliance, extremely sensitive and reserved' and with 'a certain distinction of nature'. He 'gave up the Hebdomadal Council' after his illness the previous year and does not know 'what is afoot about Honorary Degrees'.

Manuskript / Papierantiquität
Each of the four items has text clear and complete. The four are in fair condition, on aged paper, with minor staining from the paperclip used to attach them, and a small closed tear at the foot of the first letter. Letter One to 'Dear Mrs Chapman'; the other three to 'Dear Ronnie'. Letter One (4to, 2 pp): 19 November 1938. Chapman (referred to throughout as 'Ronnie') has not been well, and Fisher makes a suggestion to his mother regarding his 'future': 'Cecil Rhodes spent seven years on this process and never regretted it. [.] I do not, of course, wish to imply that a degree is indispensible. Many good Oxford men have progressed without it - but it is useful and an encouragement to those who have earned it, and Ronnie, once returned to normal health, could so easily achieve it [.]'. Letter Two (12mo, 4 pp): 29 November 1938. Fisher has been discussing matters with Chapman's tutor 'Brydon', who finds that as his 'work has been so much interrupted by illness' a place in the Honour School that summer would be a 'risk'. Discusses possible courses of action. Letter Three (12mo, 2 pp): 21 August 1939. He is sorry to learn of Chapman's 'eye trouble', and suggests that he apply to the BBC for employment, using Fisher's name as referee. Letter Four (4to, 1 p, typed): 20 April 1939. He is pleased to learn that Chapman is working at a publisher's office, and that his health is improving. 'Later on when you have made a success of your profession you must replace your name on the books and renew your contact with New College and Oxford.' He is sorry to hear that 'Limnerslease' (now the G. F. Watts museum) is up for sale: 'I have so many delightful recollections of that beautiful house'. Chapman is the author of 'The Laurel and the Thorn: A study of G. F. Watts (London: Faber, 1945).
