PRUDHOMME SULLY: (1839-1907) French Poet and Essayist, winner of the first Nobel Prize for Literature, 1901. A.L.S., Sully Prudhomme, two pages, 8vo, Paris, 30th September 1887, to an unidentified correspondent, presumably a doctor. Prudhomme states that he feels touched by the gracious attention his correspondent has shown towards him with the assurances of finding a remedy for the calluses which he has often suffered from. The poet explains that the issue is cured at present and concludes 'I thank you from deep in my heart, and I consider myself in debt to you, also for the price of this powerful remedy. I will reimburse you on my first visit, which I hope will be soon'. With blank integral leaf. VG
