DICKENS CHARLES: (1812-1870) English Novelist. A.L.S., Charles Dickens, one page, 8vo, Gads Hill Place, Higham by Rochester, Kent, 28th April 1863, to William Woodall. Dickens announces 'I do not remember to have received any such communication from you as you describe in your letter…..' and continues to add that the letter may have gone to his London office and been set aside by mistake 'in the great accumulation of correspondence there'. Dickens further adds 'It is with regret that I convey to you the assurance of my inability to comply with the request of the Wedgwood Memorial Committee. But I have lately done all that I can reasonably afford to do…..'. With integral leaf bearing a contemporary docket, presumably in the hand of Woodall, noting that Dickens was 'unable to read gratuitously'. Some very light, extremely minor age toning and light wear, VG £800-1200 William Woodall (1832-1901) British Politician & Philanthropist, a supporter of Women's Suffrage. Woodall served as secretary of the Wedgwood Institute committee. The present letter is not included in The Letters of Charles Dickens (Vol. III 1836-70, published by Chapman and Hall, London, 1882).
