Bevan, Sir Nicholas

Bigge correspondence

(Also from wife Maria - 6 - and daughter Augusta - 1.) Described by note on packet by 'AK' as 'very dull.' Thomas Bigge the goldsmith - a number of letters refer to the despatch of items of plate. 9/7/19 refers to the imminent publication of Don Juan and the suppression of the abusive 'dedication' to Southey and Lord Castlereagh - the poem is said to contain scandalous abuse of Lady Byron.

Bedford correspondence

Henry Bedford (Admiralty clerk) and his brother G.C.Bedford (Exchequer clerk - OW, and co-author with Southey of The Flagellant). NB References to Wynn tout court probably refer to Charles Watkin Williams-Wynn, very much part of the Southey set, rather than his elder brother, Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn.
