Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Matthew Arnold, Vol. 2: 1848-1888 I find myself more full of the thought of something in which he seemed to me unique. I think he was the most generous man I have ever known; the most forward to praise what he thought good, the most willing to admire, the most free from all thought of himself in praising and in admiring, and the most incapable of being made ill-natured, or even indifferent, by having to support ill-natured attacks himself. Among men of letters I know nothing so rare as this; it will always keep your father's memory surrounded, in my mind, with a freshness and an honour peculiarly his own. - Believe me, my dear Miss Kingsley, most sincerely yours, Matthew Arnold. To Miss Arnold Cobham, Saturday (December 1875). My Dearest Fan - Your letter was sent to London to me, and refreshed my spirit there. The cold half-thaw and the streets heaped with sloshy snow were depressing, and I had a cold just departing, which was vicious enough to return on the encouragement which my week in London gave it.
