I fancied reading some W. W. Jacobs, and the nearest of his volumes to hand was Odd Craft, a first edition from 1903. Inside, it's inscribed (over two lines) "To David Madsay (sp?) from his wife"; the ink of "to" and "from" was slightly smudged by her when she wrote it, a hundred and twenty years ago. I hope David appreciated it ![Smile](https://forums.contractoruk.com/core/images/smilies/smile.png)
Googling his name brings no results that seem relevant, so that's as much as we know about him
