Los 117 | Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)
Autograph letter signed (‘Rudyard Kipling’) to Charles Flight, Brown’s Hotel, London, n.d. [20 September 1907]
One page, 126 x 202mm. Envelope.

‘Like an ass I forgot to put in the queen excluder you so kindly sent me and now I have visions of mice living at free quarters in my hives all the winter’. Kipling asks Flight to ‘nip in’ and ‘bar the door against the little beasts’, with regard to Kipling’s bee hives and a potential influx of rodents. He apologises for the hastiness of his letter: ‘we’re off to Canada at noon and at present my mind is full of small agricultural machinery’.

Kipling wrote a number of short stories and poems about bees, including The Mother Hive, published in 1908.
