LETTER TWENTY-THREE
95

not be forwarded. Address, Mr. Henry F. Parkes, care of H.M. Customs, Sydney, N.S.W.

Your affectionate brother,

HENRY F. PARKES.


Note.—I was much surprised to find that this and the two following letters were signed 'Henry F. Parkes,' as I never heard my father say he had another name, nor does he appear to have so signed his name before or since. I suppose he thought of adopting the name of 'Faulconbridge,' his mother's maiden name.—A. T. P.
