- Summary
- Henry A. Rendle (d. 1873) was a playwright. The Henry A. Rendle papers primarily consist of materials on his play, Chesney Wold, adapted from Bleak House. The papers include a letter from the actor Fanny Janauschek to Rendle, dated 1873, in which she discusses her travels and playing in Chesney Wold; and letters from Janauschek's husband, Frederick J. Pillot, to Henry Rendle's wife, Mary Rendle, offering condolences on the death of her husband and notifying her of royalty payments for Chesney Wold. There are also clippings about the play. The collection contains copyright records for other plays by Rendle: Little Amy (1871), If (1872), and Fame (1872), and a copy of the deed for Henry Rendle's burial plot. A photograph, dating to about the 1860s, depicts a member of the family who was an actor.
