Editor of sensationalistic journalism (1845–1896). ALS signed “John A. Cockerill,” four pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.5 x 7, Yokahama, Japan, April 6, 1895. Letter to theatrical personality Augusta Kidder. In part: “Minnie arrived…She is much pleased with Japan and I am delighted with the fact…The shops delight her and she has a little Japanese maid who is a source of great comfort to her. As for myself I feel quite contented. I am far from the strife and hatreds of Park Row and am to some extent my own master. Everybody here is nice to me and when I hear how dull business is in the U. S. I am more than glad to be here…We have had two little Earth-quake shocks since M arrived but fortunately she did not hear or feel them. I am afraid that if we get a good knock out she will want to start for home.” In fine condition, with a small mounting remnant along top edge of last page.
