In letters to Browning, Furnivall urges him to publish his wife's poetry in a cheap edition and to write on certain contemporary themes. Also, Fleay's drafts of two letters from himself to Abbott and Fleay's copy of one from Furnivall to Abbott, 1874, (155-157); Fleay's notes on some of the letters to him from Furnivall (115); a letter from W.C.
