I In glancing at the career of this successful * citizen of no mean city ' it may be II noted at the outset as one of the strange accidents of our commercial system that I the name of a man to whom the words we have written may justly be applied should never hav e been included in the style and titl e of the house of which he was the head , and in which he began life as far back as 182(3.

Of the trade charities Mr. Miles was a liberal supporter , and he acted as a trustee of the Booksellers ' Provident Retreat . It was only natural th at a man whose business qua lities soon secured for him a reputation in the commercia l world beyon d tbe limits of ' the Row 3 should be asked to take a prominent part in public organisations ; and we find that , among other posts which he filled , were those of director and trustee of the London Life Association ; director of the West I Middlesex Waterworks Com pany ; chairman , of Mudie 's Librar y Company ; and 1 director of the Imp roved Industrial Dwell ings Company.

  • To Anthon Van Rappard. the Hague, on Or About Sunday, 22 October 1882
    To Anthon van Rappard. The Hague, on or about Sunday, 22 October 1882. on or about Sunday, 22 October 1882 Metadata Source status: Original manuscript Location: Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum, inv. no. b8349 V/2006 Date: In De brieven 1990 this letter is dated on or about 29 October 1882, which results in a very high density of letters to Van Rappard in the last days of October. Moreover, it leads to the strange situation that, at a time when Van Gogh and Van Rappard are corresponding with great frequency about illustrations, for four weeks (roughly from the end of September to the end of October) no letters pass between them. This is why we have placed the letter a little earlier in October. Van Gogh wrote on or about 23 September that within 14 days (perhaps even sooner) he expected to have a collection of prints in his possession (letter 268, ll. 49-50). The postscript in letter 274 of 22 October shows that by then he had received the new woodcuts, whereas in letter 272 of 15 October he doesnt yet mention them, so we assume that the acquisition came into his hands in the intervening week. The obvious conclusion is that the list of monograms in the present letter was drawn up wholly or partly because of this acquisition. Whether this was done after Sunday, 22 October (and thus before or after letter 274) is impossible to determine, but it must have been around then, so we date the letter to on or about Sunday, 22 October.

IS SUPPER ready, mother? I^m as hungry as a bear!^^ The speaker was a sturdy boy of sixteen, with bright eyes, and a smiling sun-browned face. His shirt sleeves wer3 rolled up displaying a pair of muscular arms. His hands were brown and soiled with labor. It was clear that he was no white-handed young aristocrat. His clothes alone would have shown that. They were of coarse cloth, made without any special regard to the pre- vailing fashion. Tom Thatcher, for this was his name, had just come home from the shoe manufactory, where he was em- ployed ten hours a day in pegging shoes, for the lucra- tive sum of fifty cents per day. I may as well state here that he is the hero of my story, and I hope none of my readers will think any the worse of him for working in a shop I am aware that it is considered more " genteel " to stand behind a counter, and display goods to customers, even if the wages are smaller.
