Frédéric Gustave EICHHOFF, Philologist and Man of Letters (Le Havre, Seine-Maritime, 1799–1875) — Autograph signed letter from Paris, February 6, 1861. 1 p., in-4°: “Sir, Allow me to draw your attention to the article I am sending you, which was intended for the *Journal de l’Instruction publique* six months ago. An unfortunate oversight on the part of my publisher, Mr. Durand, to whom I had entrusted it, caused it to go astray all this time… This article on a heroic poem by the Indians, which several newspapers have been kind enough to review favorably, was carefully composed by Mr. E. De Suckau, one of our young university students… In Mr. De Suckau’s absence, I will gladly proofread the manuscript, which may be sent to me at 10 Rue Gît le Cœur, where I am every week upon my return from Melun…”
